Wildfires are tearing through the Cairngorms, yet the Prime Minister wants to approve new climate-wrecking oil fields in the North Sea. It's time for Labour to listen to the science and block new fossil fuel licences.🚫🛢️

The Allers Allotment annual Open Day is a week on Saturday. 8th August. 1-4pm, Barrie Road. A family afternoon out with produce sales, tea toom, kids activities, etc.

The UK was one of the first countries to sign the UN Refugee Convention. They made a promise that people fleeing war and persecution would be protected. To mark this anniversary, we asked Scots about their views on refugees. Here's what we found: https://ow.ly/EvMl50Zttq4

How do you find getting in touch with the council? Particularly people with additional communication needs can find this challenging, as I was told at a recent Sheltered Housing Forum. The council wants your feedback on www.southlanarkshire.gov.uk/info/200170/....

On Sunday I joined constituents, campaigners and trade unionists to honour those from Lanarkshire who made the ultimate sacrifice in the fight against fascism in the Spanish Civil War. Congratulations to the North Lanarkshire No Pasaran Memorial Committee for another excellent gathering.

The climate crisis is making extreme wildfire conditions more intense and more common, but our firefighting resources have not kept pace with the scale of the threat. To protect communities and nature, our governments must invest in better firefighting capability in Scotland.

Wildfires are tearing across the continent and here in the UK as well. This is what climate breakdown looks like. It's time our governments stopped fuelling the crisis and started tackling it.

We stand in solidarity with everyone affected by the violence that took place in Glasgow on Saturday. There is no place for racist thuggery in Scotland. No one deserves to be threatened or intimidated for seeking safety. We have posted safety info and advice here: https://ow.ly/ZHBf50Zt73F

Access improvements requested by residents in and around Calderglen Park done. More to come. Path and steps repaired around Colonsay field with signage. New footpath and cycleway up the main avenue. More accessible play equipment (swing and roundabout). Lane reopened at the north end. Thanks all.

Love this. And agree.

I joined the Stand up to Racism - Scotland rally today in Glasgow. Such important messages of unity in communities, about women's campaigns for justice and challenging austerity and billionaires, rather than any hatred of the people we share our places with.

Terrifying to see wildfires raging through Scotland. The climate crisis isn't a distant threat - it's right here and right now. How many warning signs and alarm bells until Andy Burnham takes action to end oil and gas drilling?

“The House of Lords has no place in 21st-century politics.” - Anas Sarwar, before being offered an unelected, unaccountable seat in the House of Lords Labour's hypocrisy and contempt for democracy is breathtaking.

Failed politicians shouldn't become unelected, unaccountable law makers for the rest of their lives. This is a fundamental principle of democracy. The House of Lords is a relic long past its sell by date.

While we've been living through extreme heat, wildfires and climate disruption, Equinor made £8.6bn in 3 months. Now Equinor and Shell want the go-ahead for the climate-wrecking Rosebank oil field. Andy, stop Rosebank and tax polluters. Protect our future, not private profit.
