So disappointed further collapse this month means @GlasgowCC now plan demolition of Sir John Maxwell School building. I'm urging Council to keep as much of stonework and features as possible in Pollokshaws. Please get in touch to back my call.

It's frustrating to see a further roof collapse at the Sir John Maxwell School in Pollokshaws (1907, John Hamilton) has brought down part of the east facade. The main north and south frontages remain intact, however, and I'm seeking an urgent meeting to find a way to retain them.

In 2021, a roof collapse at Haghill School (1904, Walker) led to emergency demolition. In that case, an agreement was reached to carefully hand-dismantle the north facade for future reinstatement as housing. The same could be done with the north facade at Sir John Maxwell School.

I've laid the Scot Gov's Budget revision, showing investment of £4bn in responding to Covid. That includes £620m for the NHS, £2.3bn in business funding and £350m community support. We've responded quickly, and our financial support exceeds the UK Gov funding we've received. /1

Special day remembering Jimmy Mutter in packed Blessed John Duns Scotus. He made a lasting impact over decades at the heart of Gorbals regeneration, as Councillor & community activist (pic 2011 Laurieston housing launch with Maureen Kyle, Dot Denham, Urban Union's Janice Belshaw)

Thanks @CathcartLabour members meeting tonight, ramping up campaign to elect @GordonMcKee_ as our MP asap - and good discussion focused on Council budget, averting Couper Institute closure, but impact of SNP/Green cuts particularly on pupils, families and staff in education.

Planning for a National Care Service is going nowhere slowly. We call for urgency, momentum and action after too many years of talk. In The Herald.

Cracking interview with “optimistic cynic” @johncarnochan by @HolyroodDaily , former @vruscotland head instantly recognisable: inspiring and challenging, wonderful insight and turn of phrase, occasional mix of being lectured and hectored for naysayers, a voice we all need to hear

#CooncilTelly Unfortunately Glasgow City Council is not meeting today as scheduled due to #COVID19 . Many local authorities in Scotland and the UK are already meeting publicly online, hope @GlasgowCC catches up soon to enable better governance, scrutiny and accountability.

Thanks and well done to excellent @CoopParty team for timely and open series of meetups over past three months. Every week members discussed key issues and action now, Councillors met regularly to share best practice plus we've already met and questioned most of Shadow Cabinet!
