  • May 3Rd 2012 New Directions for Local Councils an Action Plan for Green Councillors in Scotland Message from Patrick Harvie MSP and Alison Johnstone MSP
    The Scottish Green Party Manifesto for local elections May 3rd 2012 New Directions for local councils An action plan for Green Councillors in Scotland Message from Patrick Harvie MSP and Alison Johnstone MSP In 2012 local elections come out of the shadows. For the first time in 17 years council elections are being held in their own right. It is a chance for people to cast their votes on local issues, for the parties that present the best policies for their area, and for the candidates who can show real commitment to that area. We believe that Green candidates are worthy of those votes. Greens in local councils have already shown that they can make a difference. Examples are given throughout this manifesto. Our candidates come to you with track-record of hard work at community level, of developing constructive ideas, of listening to people; and of shaking up the status quo. The voting system also means that every Green vote counts. In 2007 the first Green councillors were elected in Scotland, in Glasgow and Edinburgh. We have Green Party members on Aberdeenshire Council as well now. We expect their numbers to swell in this election, with many more councils having a Green voice on them for the first time. But the election is about more than committed candidates. It takes place at a unique time in our politics. At a UK level the Coalition Government, unchallenged by a scarcely credible opposition, continues its slash and burn approach to public services with scant regard to the needs of the country both now and in the future.

  • Buchan Profile May 2016
    Buchan Profile May 2016 AREA CHARACTERISTICS AREA CHARACTERISTICS LAND AREA % OF SHIRE TOTAL POPULATION DENSITY Buchan 587 km² (227 miles2) 9.3 57.2 persons per km2 Aberdeenshire 6316 km2 (2437 miles2) 100.0 39.2 persons per km2 Source: Aberdeenshire Council Estimates Buchan is one of the six administrative areas in Aberdeenshire. In terms of size, the area encompasses 587 sq km (227 square miles) and represents just over 9% of the total council area, the second smallest area which is just 4 sq km larger than the smallest, Garioch. For population density this measures at 57.2 persons per square kilometre, compared with 39.2 persons per square kilometre in Aberdeenshire, this is the joint-second most densely populated area alongside neighbouring Banff and Buchan. Peterhead (18,450) is by far the area’s largest settlement and is the largest town in Aberdeenshire and thus dominates Buchan’s economy which like Banff and Buchan was built on agriculture and fishing. However, more recently significant developments in the energy industry have succeeded these more traditional outputs.
