Today, I spoke in Parliament during the βTackling violence against women and girlsβ debate. I shared my own experience and the deeply moving stories of my constituents.
Together, we must break the silence, challenge abuse, and work toward a future free from fear and violence.

After an almost 3 month running hiatus I felt there was no better time to get back to it than the 1st of January!
A 5k to kickstart 2025 - lovely sunset too πββοΈ!

Just taking a moment to think about how normal it is now for women to have a job that is talking, writing, or presenting on football.
It was inconceivable not that long ago. There is much progress still to make, but I'm proud of all of them πͺβ½οΈ

The anxiety & stress fireworks cause to many constituents & animals far outweighs the few seconds of magic they may provide.
My latest Clydebank Post column on why Iβm supporting the campaign for tighter regulations & calls to ban fireworks for private use:

Ask your MSP to support the Ecocide Bill
Just 18 MSPs need to back the Ecocide Bill for it to proceed in the Scottish Parliament.
Could your MSP be key to ensuring the Ecocide Bill is debated in Holyrood?
We can help protect the environment in Scotland and deter polluters by making Ecocide a crime. Take action now by asking your MSPs to back @monicalennon.bsky.social's #EcocideLaw.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, an important day to remember those who have lost their lives to prejudice, hatred, and violence.
We stand with the LGBTQ community, and in particular our transgender friends on this solemn day.

It was especially nice to get updates from Glasgow Community Energy who have been leading the way in the city for many years & to be introduced to other co-ops who are showing the real positives they can bring to communities!
Thanks to @anthonycarroll.bsky.social for organising!!

Glasgow has such a proud history when it comes to co-operatives & it was great to hear more about co-ops from across the city now playing such a key role in itβs future at the βCo-ops & the Councilβ event today.
Lots to think about how we as a Council can support them further π
