BRINGING art treasures from Edinburgh to Glasgow will certainly allow more people access to famous works.

However, Glasgow also has a world-class collection which attracts visitors from far and wide.

The new National Galleries boss says he wants more collaboration between the cities.

While that is welcome, what we need from Holyrood is a fairer deal for Glasgow's museums.

The facts are startling. Edinburgh gets £41m in support while Ripped Off Glasgow gets nothing.

The culture minister recently saw first hand, both the quality and the problems facing museums in Glasgow and he needs to put up the cash to put the city on an even footing with the capital. Don't put babies' lives at risk

HEALTH chiefs were well warned of the risk severing the link between Yorkhill and the Queen Mum's would create.

Transferring seriously ill babies by ambulance across the city is no substitute for the immediate attention integration allows.

The risk is once again a real threat with a four-year gap before the triple co-location is in place at the Southern General.

Glasgow has dedicated professionals, providing the best mother and baby services, saving lives every year.

A solution to bridge the gap must be found until the promised gold standard' service is fully in place.
