Is
@BorisJohnson
serious about providing proof of double jab before entry to a nightclub or other places where large amounts of people gather or is it a ‘threat ‘? Cynically using clubs as a means to get 18-30 motivated to go and get jabbed ..either way It is an abuse of power
Please God make it stop 😱give Scotland a government for the people not against them 🙏Hard-pressed Scots families face fines for recycling errors under SNP plans

Shocking ! A Scottish party that next to no-one voted for, but who incredibly have the power of command, refuses to support a vital Scottish industry and major employer in its hour of need.
The Scottish Greens , the ruin of Scotland, deal a major blow to hospitality in fight for
After 5 glorious sun kissed weeks in Portugal 🇵🇹 & Spain 🇪🇸..where there was no climate change hysteria, LEZ shite, gas boiler garbage, health stazis fear-mongering on alcohol , no JSO ,Just busy restaurants, pubs, clubs , beaches filled with happy people, Im now heading home 🤦🏻

Just what Glasgow's NTE needs - NOT !
At a time when night time footfall has fallen off a cliff and businesses are desperate for custom. When hospitality closures are running at double the rate of those in England, and are reeling under the brutal effects of a cost of living
The revolving door at Holyrood spins again and throws out another failed FM ..

This is absolutely disgraceful, a shambles 😡Why the rush to carve up our city?
Despite a deeply worrying drop in visitor footfall last month of over 400,000 people, up from the previous months drop of 200,000 and its hospitality and retail sectors in freefall, down in trade

Whatever next I wonder ? Council plans to axe 172 teaching posts in Glasgow to save money ? 😱
If its money as well as vital jobs they wish to save this year, they could shelve the £9 million earmarked for changing lightbulbs to LED?

@scotgov
? Who runs the country? Surely a name change to SIP wouldn’t be legal ? Would an election be called ? If so who would call it ? would the UK Gov intervene ? 🧐🤷♂️ very worrying time
How is democracy being served , when over 4,000,000 people are registered to vote in a national election in Scotland, yet only 26,032 have (0.65%) have chosen the country's new FM ? It's so wrong! A new FM or PM should be chosen by the electorate not the chosen few.

A truly crushing blow for Glasgow's beleaguered hospitality and licence trade sectors. Gutted for all those businesses who taken staff off furlough, bought stock and worked their socks off to be Covid ready

Output down from £2.88bn to £1.88bn (a staggering drop of £1,000,000,0000 in 10 years)
GDP down 15%
A drop of 30% in use of public

Mairi McAllan accused of 'hilariously vague' answer when asked about Glasgow LEZ ......Sadly there is nothing hilarious or vague about the massive drop in footfall and catastrophic damage that LEZ has inflicted on Glasgow's already struggling retail and hospitality sectors. 😡

This really is Covid Groundhog Day , We have been here before ..the last time we were told restriction would only last 3 weeks we were shut down for months 😱 Only this time its worse as there is no furlough in place to keep staff if these restrictions are extended
