This is the text of the speech I made yesterday to SNP Conference about the way in which Glasgow City Council employees are being treated over the cancellation of the UKBA contract to house asylum seekers. However, despit...

Indygal Goes to Holyrood! This is the 4th Indygal blog, each follows a different chapter in my life. This one started when I found myself suddenly elected as an SNP Member of the Scottish Parliament for Glasgow in Feb 2009. Sunday, 31 October 2010. Pointless checking at airports?

THE GIANT STEP FORWARD. My blog describing the ramblings of a Partick Thistle supporting, SNP and Trade Union Activist. This weekends newspapers would make one weep as story after story is all about the cuts to the Public Sector, as the CON-DEM Westminster Government continue their Butcher Knife assault for purely political philosophical reasons. The only one of two countries in the g20 not to try and grow their way out of recession, the future is bleak. It doesn’t have to be this way. Has seen in over 3...

Brilliant news just out from the High Court in London. The wonderful organisation Medical Justice. I'm wondering what the thinking is (sorry WAS!

Well, I suppose I might have mentioned her and her brother Daniel. Anyway I do recall writing about how she more or less had to. Take responsibility for her own education and how I thought it would pay off. Here's an extract from another blog piece.

The text of a speech I made at SNP Conference yesterday welcoming jobs to Glasgow. We became used to it and our parents became worn down by it.
