SNP MSP for Glasgow Shettleston, John Mason, last night hosted a public meeting at St Marks Church in Shettleston, which was attended by Strathclyde Police and local residents who were meeting to discuss the recent spate of anti-social behaviour, which has become a big issue around Kilmany Drive, Shettleston Road and St Marks Church.
The meeting, which was attended by around 70 residents, heard from Chief Inspector Tom Cruikshank from Shettleston Police Station, local MSP John Mason, and many members of the local community who have been victims of the recent anti-social behaviour which has included graffiti, fire raising, racism, vandalised cars, intimidation of residents, and the firing of an air gun. |

SNP MSP for Glasgow Shettleston, John Mason, has welcomed news that small businesses across Scotland, including the East End, have benefitted from over £400m of rates relief since the SNP launched its flagship Small Business Bonus Scheme, new figures show.
The figures, recently revealed in a Parliamentary Answer, also show that 2011/12 was a record-breaking year for the small business bonus scheme, with local authorities across Scotland benefitting from over £130m in rates relief.
John Mason, SNP MSP for the East End and Deputy Convener of the Scottish Parliament’s Finance Committee, said the new figures - which outline an increase in the SBBS awards in local authorities across Scotland – are testament to the huge importance that the SNP Government has placed on helping small businesses during tough economic times.
