Glasgow plea for permanent memorial to mark centenary of John Maclean death

Calls have been made for a permanent commemoration to the legendary socialist politician John Maclean to mark the 100th anniversary of his passing.

John Maclean was a school teacher, Red Clydesider and founder member of the Pollokshaws Progressive Union - an organisation which discussed issues such as socialism, anarchism, the natural sciences and general social problems.

He was just 44-years-old when he died in 1923.
