Remembering Adrian McGill

On 19th November, the 50th Anniversary of Adrian McGill's death, the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service held a memorial service in Adrian's honour at a heritage plaque on the Maryhill Road site.

My thoughts and respects to everyone involved in this fitting tribute to a brave firefighter who made the ultimate sacrifice to help save people's lives and protect the local communities in Glasgow.

Flooding at Kelvin Walkway

There are ongoing concerns about the flooding at Kelvin Walkway next to the Eldon Street Bridge.

There are difficulties for pedestrians and cyclists using the Kelvin Walkway as the current drainage arrangements are overwhelmed by increased rainfall.  There is a need to find ways to reduce the surface water gathering on the footpath and invest in improvement to local drainage.

Support of Women, Life and Freedom

On 19th November, I joined the march and rally in support of Women, Life and Freedom from Kelvin Way to Glasgow Green.
