Seven arts organisations at Trongate 103 have been told by council-owned City Property to sign new leases or get out. They were given 28 days notice.

Mark Langdon, chair of Glasgow Media Access Centre's board, said this "massively" threatens his charity.

A shame, β€˜though it has been leaning over since the 1980s. Part of my youth!
