Single parent Karen Higgins needed dampness fixed and other repairs carried out to her GHA home. After going to local Labour Party members and to GHA officials, Karen was no further on. It was the same old script: she had tried all the usual angles expecting help, but it had not worked.
Then Billy McAllister took up her case. Within two weeks, GHA were out sorting out the dampness problem. |

CRIME and anti social behaviour have no place in our communities.
Police and Procurators Fiscal should be made to do their job. They are
here to serve us, not the other way around.
Billy McAllister says: “I will not tolerate official inaction on crime
and anti socials. Milton people should be able to walk the streets in
safety. Elderly residents should not live their lives in fear. These
are our human rights. If elected, my top priority will be to make sure
that all criminal and anti social behaviour in Milton is ruthlessly
dealt with. It is time for victims to get more help and practical
support than perpetrators. |

A huge council tax rise is likely in April. Glasgow is expected to have the highest Council Tax in Scotland - again.
Billy McAllister says: "This is a disgrace when you think of the poor
quality services Glasgow City Council gives us. Litter is strewn all
over the streets, common and garden areas are full of rubbish, fly
tipping is at an all time high. People with care packages having these
cut and this is leaving vulnerable people even more vulnerable. St.
Augustine's playing fields have been left to rot with no changing rooms
and only one marked football pitch."
Billy feels that these and other worthwhile services to our communities
could be properly funded if the massive wastage of money within the
Council was tackled - including their hospitality bill and their
all-expenses-paid junkets. |
