The most impressive thing about the Glasgow Voi bike hires is how they've widened the demographics of people cycling in the city. You see all sorts on them

The Herald has a deathwish. The paper has no future beyond the next ~10 years unless it can attract a next generation of readers which realistically means the under-40, grads, in its core market of Glasgow and surrounds. Yet it clearly loathes them, their values, and their politics
. 'Salon Sandinistas'
. 'Artisan anarchists'
. 'Scotland’s Executive left'
. 'Scotland’s counterfeit radicals'

Or if you are Glasgow City Council you can "unite to condem racist violence" while still using X as your main social media platform

So the whole "3 points and a goal diff of 0 or -1 will be enough to qualify" thing turned out to be baws in the end. We could have beaten Haiti by 3 and only lost to Brazil by 1 and we'd still be out

I cannot wait for George Square to reopen in the Autumn. It's going to be great to have a main civic square the city can be proud of again

The endless youtube adverts backlash intensifies. We need to make sure labour lose so badly that no other scottish party ever dares inflict this upon us again
Today's @ipsosinscotland.bsky.social poll finds the largest SNP constituency vote lead of any BPC research agency since Nicola Sturgeon's resignation, as SNP support rises to its highest level in over two years.

I'll be discussing this, and more, with @holyroodsources.bsky.social this afternoon.

I‘ve heard people say the show fell off when she was introduced, but I think they’re all being insincere. It’s just a bad faith argument.

also, the building is in multiple ownership which means a) there can't be 1 bad actor trying to redevelop and b) it'll be a fkn nightmare to coordinate any redevelopment and we might end up with another long-term Victorias-esque gapsite
can everyone on here stop the conspiratorial chat about developers and fire

obviously glasgow's had dodgy fires in abandoned buildings but this is not that! it was a busy, occupied building in the city centre

you're just taking attention from the real scourge which was likely unsafe vapes
