Women are badly under-represented in public office, meaning policy and legislation is not always inclusive. Jools Bell gives us an account of what she has done, as a councillor, to promote women’s rights and wellbeing.
The Cost of Living Crisis is tearing our country apart – and Scotland’s whole budget depends on the UK Government deciding what they will give us. With Truss ignoring Sturgeon and Labour refusing to talk to the SNP, how do we make our voice heard?

Many of us are struggling to keep our heads above water, we are drowning under the weight of poverty and worry.
Its September 2022. The people of Scotland are living through the cumulative effects of a decade of Tory austerity, the effects of the COVID pandemic, Brexit, and the current cost of living crisis. This is not sustainable. What can we do?
