Cambuslang Resident Opening Business on Christmas Day to Offer Company for Others

Lodged by Clare Haughey (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 15 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament praises Jordan Trainer, from Cambuslang, for what it sees as the kind-hearted decision to open his shop on Christmas Day in response to customers saying that they would be celebrating the occasion alone; notes that Jordan is the owner of Plantique, which specialises in the sale of plants, vintage items and gifts on Dumbarton Road in Partick, Glasgow; understands that the shop will be open between 11.00 am and 2.00 pm on 25 December 2023; believes that, while Christmas is a time for connecting with friends and family, it can also be a time of real loneliness for many, and thanks everyone across all sectors, from care to hospitality, that will be working on Christmas Day.
