"It's exhausting being a parent" Local democracy isn't working. We've spoke about this a lot! Grateful that Garrett Stell The Herald is giving parents the opportunity to share their views, stories and experiences of trying to engage with their LA's heraldscotland.com/news/24449297.…

Mo 🌍 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 🌈 🇫🇷 🇱🇧 Garrett Stell The Herald NorthLanCouncil As was the case with our campaign- MSPs (and MPs) and Ministers know what's going on here in NLC. We have the Parental Involvement Act, Community Empowerment Act and UNCRC/GIRFEC but none of that matters. Govt say its not their problem, Cosla say it's not theirs either ... 🙄

@hazeldmo Children and Young People's Commissioner Scotland Observatory JustRight Scotland 🧡 Children's Parliament Dr Rhian Croke @Bromebyd Education Scotland UNChildRights Improvement Service Scottish Youth Parliament NorthLanCouncil @hazeldmo might be interested in our article today with Together's section regarding your post -

Given UNCRC comes into law in Scotland today, are the rights of some of our children and young people, affected by the loss of schools transport being breached? Unsafe routes, inaccurate measurements that have been reported and we await be checked, lack of engagement by officers

📢‼️Parents - what is life like for babies, children and young people in Scotland - the more stories the clearer the picture - this is a fairly short survey if your child would be happy to complete ⬇️

The concerns remain valid for many parents, children and families today. There are more questions than answers just now and all we can do is await outcomes of FOIs and complaints 😢This is not just about buses, this is about rights, law and policy underpinned by local democracy

Anas Sarwar Andy Burnham Steve Rotheram Labour’s values will be seen in communities in North Lanarkshire tomorrow when children of all ages will be walking dangerous routes or boarding unsuitable buses to get to school after Lab councillors voted to remove school transport for them.
