Scottish Tenant's Organisation
The STO was born out of the great Glasgow Rent Strikes of 1915, when mass action by ordinary tenants and workers forced the government to intervene. As Glasgow's working-class men were dying in their thousands on the killing fields of Flanders, the women back home were faced with swingeing rises in their rent. Their refusal to be exploited by their landlords led to a historic strike movement, which was echoed in many other parts of Scotland and the UK, and compelled the government to freeze rents at pre-war levels. This movement led directly to the formation of the STO, which was seen by its founders as the most effective way to make the voice of ordinary tenants heard and, more importantly, listened to, by government and landlords.

Glasgow Parks and Public space
Like every other part of the Common Good we can no longer take it for granted that our parks can stay free from business interests - nor can we rely on the city council or any future city council to look after the publics interests concerning green space and parks. We [park users] need to take on this responsibility ourselves. Please use this space to create a collective shared knowledge base on what is happening in and to our parks and green spaces.
