GLASGOW is the heart of the only genuine metropolis in these islands north of Manchester.
Our sheer scale, population size and the national importance of the Glasgow city region marks us out as a place of international significance and recognition.
That ambition has now taken two major leaps forward. Just last week, the City Region took control from the Scottish Government of what is potentially the biggest regeneration project in Western Europe. These steps are a testament to the really strong partnerships already delivering for our regional economy. Glasgow, for example, ranked as the top UK city for small businesses last year, the 13th most sustainable city in theand the second greenest UK city to invest in. A recent report has also found that we’re the fourth biggest place for Foreign Direct Investment in the UK, and the second-best city in the UK for innovation. Those are solid and very positive building blocks.
TOMORROW, the SNP will bring forward a motion to full council backing calls for the decriminalisation of drugs for personal use.
