RBS Closures Spark Community Outcry | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Royal Bank of Scotland is shutting six Scottish branches this September — including Giffnock, which has sparked a community outcry and a petition — despite announcing a “no further closures” pledge until 2029. Critics say the headline misleads, as the closures were buried in the release. Meanwhile, Prestwick Airport’s CEO, Ian Forgie, is retiring after turning around the airport’s finances and boosting cargo and passenger numbers. In Glasgow, foreign direct investment is surging: projects up 7%, capital spending nearly doubled, and job creation jumped 50% — signaling strong regional economic growth.
