Glasgow residents asked to give views on city's slavery legacy

Glasgow residents are being asked to give their opinions on how the council should handle the city’s historical slavery trade links.

The city has 62 streets and locations with historic connections to slavery - including Buchanan Street - as well as a number of buildings. Eight figures linked to the trade are also commemorated across monuments in the city.

The consultation, which is being dubbed a ‘debate’ examining the issues was launched on Monday this week.
