The Kelpies looking resplendent in orange to mark the end of #16DaysOfActivism . Unfortunately it doesn't mark the end of gender-based violence and across services we need to continue to work hard to call an end to harm #ForthValley16Days

'Simply obscene'. UCU comment on Stirling Principal's 40% £119k pay rise over 2 years making him highest paid VC in Scotland on £414,000 plus benefits. Salaries like this when we're facing funding challenges and redundancies across HE are unconscionable www.scotsman.com/education/th...
The 'staggering' £119,000 salary rise for best paid university principal in Scotland
‘Simply obscene’ hike in pay for Scottish vice chancellor who now earns more than double the UK prime minister

Imagine Reform coming to Falkirk just to announce you have your first defection from the House of Lords.

"People of Falkirk, a man who is just like you, LORD OFFORD! From his background as a New York Banker to becoming a Lord after donating £147 thousand pounds to them"

Community, solidarity, friendships and compassion. This is the Falkirk we know and love. We must continue to stand united. Farage and his pals don’t care about us. Falkirk is merely a trojan horse to him #falkirk #standuptoracism #solidarity

Scotland has never been a utopia free of racism.

Its ugly side has been seen for centuries.

Right now racist hatred is targeting the most vulnerable in our communities.

Our appeal aims to make sure that people are given the chance to start again in safety.

Please donate.

Because everyone deserves safety.

Please donate what you can.
