Research project into Glasgow’s historical ties to the British Empire
Proposal code: GlasgowCommunityChoices-2023-05-8
Research into Glasgow's ties to the British Empire
Similarly to the slavery audit, research into Glasgow and its role in the British Empire should be conducted. The audit would research the wealth derived from the British Empire as well as looking at the role of Glasgow and its inhabitants in the running of the empire. Statues and street names that ‘celebrate’ Empire (eg Clyde) could then also be in the mix.
This would use the city’s archives including those found at the Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde as well as Glasgow museums’ collections.

Absolutely not, yet again, this is nothing more that grievance and victimhood driven by a racial ideology by race grifters who are looking to personally benefit by stirring up racial division and hatred today using something that the majority of Glasgow then and none of Glasgow now had any involvement in!
GCC SHOULD have far more important matters to address and resolve. This is a repugnant, ideological and cynical waste of public money in the pursuit of increasing racial tension, division and animosity.
