Speaking up for the women involved in the strike in Glasgow @carolynleckie writing in the @ScotNational reminds us that “Women’s work” has been taken for granted, demeaned & disrespected in the workplace and the home." thenational.scot/news/171849…
It was certainly disappointing after 2 yrs of engagement & detailed business case to in the end only get a call from junior aide 5 mins before formal announcement made. Opportunity lost for @scotgov to do something different. Not only school closing next month but nursery too xitter.cf/kmckenna63/status/9986…

@KeepStJoes had my little ones P1 induction day at our amazing wee school, somebody has to stop this closure @joswinson #makeourkidsmatter
The window of opportunity is closing for us but there is still time for @thesnp to do the right thing & back our proposal xitter.cf/apmcfadyen/status/8738…
Time for @theSNP to back @KeepStJoes? They opted for an easy life when they could have been bold, argues @kmckenna63 theguardian.com/commentisfre…
Delighted with coverage in today's @FT by @MureDickie about the fight to keep St Joseph's in Milngavie #communityempowerment
YAY, people power! #Milngavie result: J Gibbons @snpmilngavie J Goodall (Liberal Democrats) & G McGinnigle (Conservative) elected #LE2017

Not the case Pam. Ian MacKay says he will readdress the issue & ask Council officers to examine every avenue available.

Exactly...we've given options to save @KeepStJoes AND save money.

I don't see why St Joes can't be saved? Let Bearsden have the new school and leave us where we are! We don't need a new school!!
Giving more power to schools? Yet when given an opportunity @NicolaSturgeon @JohnSwinney won't even consider pilots to make this happen... xitter.cf/bbcgaryr/status/856398…

An insight into how it feels "engaging" with @scotgov heraldscotland.com/opinion/1…
Thanks to @DenholmHT for highlighting our ongoing frustrations with @scotgov . Are they serious about empowering and engaging communities? xitter.cf/denholmht/status/83904…

The build is not the key issue. Only a handful of kids from Milngavie will go to Bearsden anyway.
Or they could look at this new "shiny building" in Bearsden & shape it into proper community hub for B'den @BammiePam @apmcfadyen @scotgov

There is a real danger that if @scotgov don't come back with an answer soon then the great campaign run by @KeepStJoes will run out of time.
