THE appointment of Humza Yousaf as First Minister last week was a significant moment in the history of both Glasgow andA proud Glaswegian, the new First Minister has grown up in this city and knows its communities and its people as his own.
He also symbolises a modern and progressive Scotland, a nation committed to upholding the rights and freedoms of all its citizens. That’s something to celebrate. Whether that’s record numbers of affordable homes, the expansion of free early learning and childcare, the roll-out of free school meals or the role councils play in delivering assistance such as the Scottish Welfare Fund, there’s so much positive work making real differences to people’s lives that we can and must advance.
It recognises not just the role of councils in addressing many frontline challenges but also the critical importance of local government in making Scotland a fairer, more economically prosperous and environmentally sustainable nation.
Given the inextricable link between finance and local government, it makes complete sense for these remits to go together. But more importantly, I know Shona to be passionate about fighting against poverty and supporting communities.
