They've begun our meetings for moving hours, most of the pickers are not moving their hours and want to stick with what they are doing.

But we was pretty much told we have to choose between staying in dotcom, or doing our hours in another department and that replacements will be hired for 4:30am for everyone of us that says no.

What's confusing me is the pick is suppose to extend to 4pm, but they are acting like they won't need many of us past 8am, and will be moving the majority of us to other departments as the replacements roll in.

There really isn't any need for most of us in the rest of the store, and they struggle to hire for certain days of the week already let alone an entire department worth for 4:30am starts. I don't really see how it's going to work taking an entire department that is well trained in dotcom and scattering them across the store to replace with new people.

Something tells me they are just fear mongering to get people to move their hours so they don't have to hire so many people, any thoughts on this? It does not seem this way at other stores from what I've read.

The 26 weeks absence thing, does that go from the date(s) you’re off sick, or from the date when you return to work? Thanks.

A far-right thug who attended a demo to “Save Our Women and Kids” has been accused of being a vicious bully who abused his partners.

The new Balgray station in Barrhead is set to open weeks ahead of schedule, with final preparations now underway before it welcomes its first passengers.

An opening date has been confirmed for Sunday 27 September, earlier than the November date originally planned.

Balgray station is being built to serve the growing community around Barrhead and improve rail connections to and from Glasgow. It’s expected to make it easier for people to travel for work, education and leisure, while attracting more visitors to local destinations such as Dams to Darnley Country Park.

Am I being spectacularly thick here?

I can’t see any Northern services from WBQ to NLW on Friday 3 July. The previous Friday they’re running and they’re also running on the following Friday. But there’s nothing for that Friday on the ScotRail app, and nothing on Real Time Trains either. I asked Northern via live chat and after getting through to a human she told me their trains are running on that day and to book via their website. But I can’t find any Northern services on that day on their website either, just the Transport for Wales ones. I feel absolutely daft, am I missing something? Can anyone else find these services?!

“Shawfield Stadium to the south east of Glasgow between Dalmarnock and Rutherglen will be demolished to make way for the new development.

“A 150 bed hotel has also been approved as part of the project and space for retail leisure and commercial use as well.”

”Four separate contracts worth up to £7.5m each have been approved that will see extensive carriageway maintenance undertaken in all 23 of Glasgow's council wards over the next ten months.”

I don’t even drive but the state of our roads (not just in Glasgow but all over the UK) is absolutely horrendous. Some of the pavements aren’t much better!
