1/ Pleased to announce that I'll be standing as the @The_SSP_ candidate for the Liberton and Gilmerton ward for the 2022 Scottish council elections. I'll be standing on a socialist platform: 
2/ No to cuts and no to privitisation - The Scottish Socialist Party have never and will never vote for cuts to public services - let's keep our schools, hospitals and libraries publicly funded, fit for purpose and away from the hands of private profiteering #NoCuts
3/ An independent, socialist Scotland - We need to build the case for independence on the basis of making working class people's lives better. We need socialist transformation of Scotland’s economy through a Socialist Green New Deal scottishsocialistparty.org/party-policies/
4/ Free public transport - for EVERYONE in Scotland - to cut emissions and reduce poverty. Solutions to global warming need to make our lives better, not worse
5/ Housing justice - We need to build quality, energy efficient council housing and introduce rent controls immediately #VoteSSP
6/ £12/hour National Living Wage - Most people struggling to make ends meet are working for poverty wages. We'll put an end to that by demanding all employers [including @Edinburgh_CC] pay at least £12/hour. That’s what the Government say you need to earn to pay your own way.
7/ If you want to help elect a councillor that will fight for working people, join @The_SSP_ today! join.thessp.scot #VoteSSP
