I and other members of my family, like numerous Glaswegians, applied for tickets for the Christmas lights switch on.
As per usual, thousands have not been successful.
I have read that 80% of the tickets go to Glaswegians, the other 20% to others from different areas. Why are many of us from Glasgow being refused a ticket?
Most surrounding areas, Lanarkshire, Renfrewshire, and Ayrshire, have their own Christmas lights switch on, so why can't 100% of the tickets be given to native Glaswegians?

A free for all
Regarding charging for access to Glasgow Cathedral, I'm sure that whatever the fee is it will be less than the penalty for driving through Nelson Mandela Place, which is £60, or £30 if paid within 14 days.
It's a bit hypocritical of Gordon Matheson to complain about the Cathedral charging for something that used to be free.

Changed days
Anas Sarwar MP says in his Evening Times column "change is coming, but it is change that only a Labour government can deliver."
New Labour might win a few seats, but they are dead to the working class.
They will pay for the years of neglect, contempt and betrayal - especially their welfare policies and campaigning for the Tory Government to continue ruling Scotland.

Hospital woes
Glasgow City Council is heaping misery, frustration and expense on everyone working, visiting and living near the new South Glasgow Hospitals.
Instead of ensuring adequate parking and providing additional access roads, the council actually ordered the hospital to reduce the number of spaces originally proposed.
You only have to look at the extensive car parks around Braehead and its many new access roads to realise that the council's approach at the new Southern is entirely misconceived.
