Soryia Siddique: We must save Glasgow's heritage for the future
Local residents evacuated, cars diverted, businesses impacted. Local residents are quite rightly asking why was action to save this building not taken earlier?

Cost recovery from the owners of such buildings is paramount for an already pressurised local authority where residents are experiencing cuts in cleansing, housing, health and social care. Teacher numbers have been cut and far too many children and families are looking for a place to call their home.
