#GCCHIGHSTCRISIS of Glasgow Council @Citypropertyllp rotting out heritage shops on High Street, GlasgowsOldestSt, is in 15th yr It was raised in Holyrood 2013 by MSP Sandra White, calling it 'asset stripping' but SNP dropped it & criticism of CP - for £1rent shops Raise it again
'@Citypropertyllp not maintaining these properties & letting them out' MSP @AnnieWellsMSP breaks years of silence & asks what the city urgently wants to know: Why is GCC landlord @Citypropertyllp keeping High Street in deliberate #ManagedDecline to G's detriment? #Glasgow850
Shops close, leaving a desert where community was Yet here in crazytown Glasgow, our Council landlord @Citypropertyllp refuses to save our 30yr independent shop from their rotting premises & relocate us to 1 of the many vacant units on High Street- GlasgowsOldestSt to aud regen
Shop closures are accelerating, 17,350 forecast this year, 202,000 jobs at risk. That’s 47 shops & 550 jobs lost every day. In rural and seaside towns, those small businesses are most of the jobs. If you’re visiting this summer, shop local. Every £ spent supports a local family
#ManagedDecline
It is terrible! The council just are not proactive enough!! No other city in the UK is a dirty or has gap sites that lie empty as long!! Total embarrassment!
Civic groups in England who support us must wonder why our campaign to end #ManagedDecline of GlasgowsOldestSt is ostracised from heritage debate But #ManagedDecline = gifting free shops to a vulture sector of art/heritage orgs who accept without conscience So High Street rots
Not stupid to those benefitting from #ManagedDecline 😔 Glasgow Council landlord @Citypropertyllp neglect shops, create false narrative no-one wants them, then give em away🥂 Arts/heritage orgs broke decade-long campaign by High Street small businesses to save HS & our jobs
I'm so disappointed in how Glasgow Council & their landlord @Citypropertyllp treat hardworking small businesses trying to regenerate High Street Abused, gaslighted, evicted from rotting premises, falsely smeared in press... All suppressed because the privileged got free shops
'I'm so disappointed that my country is treating its honest, hardworking people the way that it has' 92 year old Betty Brown, the oldest victim of the Post Office's Horizon IT scandal, told #BBCBreakfast of her anger at still waiting for her case to be settled…
Glasgow Council landlord control regeneration of upper High Street, GlasgowsOldestSt, owning all shop units CP refuse to allow us to relocate from our rotting shop to 1 of vacant units here to aid regen CP leave shops vacant & rotting for yrs 'St where businesses go to die'
The public realm improvements on the southern half of #ByresRoad have been successful, with retail unit vacancies below pre-pandemic levels and a far more attractive environment there, and work on the northern half will begin next month. More info 👉 ow.ly/aMGH50WtNU4
Why did Glasgow Council install a beautiful mural to draw visitors to Glasgow's oldest street - but not repair Council shops, rotting & vacant for years? Why won't Glasgow Council landlord @CityPropertyLLP let us regenerate HS? #Glasgow850

High Street has dreams & aspirations🏛 Glasgow's oldest street dreams of making you gasp with delight, not wince in fear & cringe with embarrassment as you try to ignore rotting facades of #ManagedDecline @GlasgowCC landlord @Citypropertyllp: Where is your love for your city?

Closure of 13thNote hurt Glasgow's nighttime economy, deprived musicians of essential small, affordable city centre venue Staff wanted to re-open u der their co-operative but Glasgow Council landlord @CityPropertyLLP said no Venue still closed CP hurts Glasgow, yet silence
Glasgow’s nightlife is in the “worst state it has been in since 1979”. That’s according to the man behind one of Scotland’s biggest gig promoters, PCL Presents. He also owns Sneaky Pete’s in Edinburgh, and Broadcast.
High Street is embarrassing to all, but that's #ManagedDecline Those who can speak out, won't What do walking tours say when they stop at HS? Welcome to Glasgow's oldest St, please ignore rotting shops, filth & decay & oh, it's #Glasgow850, we're so proud of our heritage😔
That station and the surrounding realm is embarrassing - as is high street. I had friends visiting from England and as we got off the train at argyle street one said it looked like we had travelled to the eastern bloc. It really is the pits.

metaphor Glasgow City Council's motto has been #LetGlasgowPerish for decades GCC landlord @Citypropertyllp evicted High Street small businesses trying to save heritage
It's really frustrating to see that one of the four coats of arms on the 137-year-old Doulton Fountain has recently been smashed, with the fragments of 'Let Glasgow Flourish' now scattered in the basin. The fountain should be cleaned, repaired and refilled for the summer months.
Why won't @GlasgowCC make a difference to women's rights & stop Glasgow Council landlord @Citypropertyllp abusing #womeninbusiness, blaming them for historic neglect of heritage shops on High Street? End the exploitation & eviction of women just trying to #LetGlasgowFlourish
