However, Greens are very clear, there are 10 times more billionaires in the UK than 20 years ago. It is time for the super-rich to pay their fair share so working people aren’t left picking up the bill, so we can continue to invest in South Lanarkshire’s people and places into the future.”

Many of you, like me, got a letter from Reform in the post yesterday. You need to watch this and see the kind of people who are asking for your vote. Your vote is a serious responsibility and has serious consequences. Please consider it very carefully. There is an alternative, www.greens.scot/join

Have your say on potential savings to help meet the council's budget gap. Every year councillors get a report on public views of different cuts options so please do fill the survey out. Every year there are also options for investment to improve lives and our place too. I want to hear those too.
