Local hero: Dundee United fan Marty stuffs his car full of foodbank donations every weekend ow.ly/BCjs50PZZH2

Our dear friend and colleague, Councillor Charlie Malone has passed. Our statement.

Deeply saddened by the death of my former lecturer and dear friend, Charlie Malone. From the forefront of Timex dispute, to representing his local community in Lochee - he was a truly inspirational man. Rest in peace, comrade 🌹🕊️

Two years since Fans Supporting Foodbanks Dundee started & we’ve just held our first ever Dundee derby collection! 🥫⚽️ True solidarity shown by football fans from many different backgrounds across our city 💙🧡 Feeling a bit emotional about it all, thanks to everyone who played their part 🤝

🗳️ I am proud to have been confirmed as the Scottish Labour candidate in the Lochee by-election on Oct 3rd. Charlie Malone was an inspiring campaigner, socialist & trade unionist. ✊ I hope to do him proud by winning this election, continuing his legacy for all who knew him! 🌹

More than 14 years of Tory austerity has wreaked havoc with Scotland’s finances. But the Scottish government isn't powerless and has made grave mistakes along the way. Last year, we showed them an alternative. They didn't take it. Now, our communities look set to pay the price.

SNP’s programme for government watering down some of their big promises. No more free school meals for kids in primary 6 & 7, now they are “working towards” it

Proud to announce our Labour candidates for the upcoming Dundee city council by-elections: Richard McCready for Strathmartine Richard McCready Marty Smith for Lochee Marty Smith Dundee needs change, vote Labour on the 3rd of October.

🗳️ A great first week on the campaign trail, listening to people in Strathmartine and Lochee. It’s clear that people are tired of the incompetence in local government and want real change. On October 3rd, vote Scottish Labour 🌹
