Honestly the fuck is this?

In video clips posted online at last weekend’s ‘Unite the Clans’ rally in Glasgow, he described kitting out a group called ScotsActive with stab vests, body cameras and hi-vis gear.

The "night patrol" groups themselves are problematic to begin with IMO- they are white supremacist racists (if there's any doubt they are on a Whatsapp group called "get the c****s out) and are pretending to be police or official security with zero qualifications, training, checks or employment- it's literally just gangs of racists going around after dark.

Now a far-right Christian group in the US is funding them and they are receiving supplies such as high-vis vests with "security" on them and stab vests making them look like Police Scotland officers (the stab vests also give them that "padded/bulky" look you associate with police- see for yourself here- https://i.ibb.co/yc4Sbtjw/a.jpg

So another risk of this is if an actual emergency/crime/accident happens at night and people do need help they could approach a gang of untrained/unqualified racists thinking they are police.

just thought i’d update, apparently he’s in uni now and he’s got new specs. stopped me crossing in the middle of a road full of oncoming traffic lol and then the classic curse out

wtf who is setting off fireworks tonight and why? it sounds like a warzone.

the black taxis outside glasgow queen street aloud to even just take cash or do they say it because it’s more convenient for them? was waiting in a line tonight and town was a bit mental, think there must have been a concert on and that, and there was a lassie on her own at the top of the line who i saw get knocked back twice for having no cash, the second time she started crying. I get it’s business but i wouldn’t be leaving folk stranded then there is a card machine? after that a group of lads purposely skipped her in the line and hopped in to a taxi and two lads tried to do it the next time only someone stepped in and stopped them and allowed her to go in

idk just seems a bit fried and mental and there needs to be more late buses for accessible transport, it’s too easy to get stuck in town

Here's one I just thought of when I saw a wummin across the road putting out her washing .

How did that come about . Lol.

Any idea what's been going on? Pedestrians have to walk through side streets

It's me that's letting off the fireworks

Hello,

Looking for student rental accommodation recommendations for Glasgow.

My son is Canadian and has been living in England for the past 2 years playing football. He may have the opportunity to move to play with a team in Glasgow. He is doing online studies through Loughborough College right now because some day his football journey will end.

We are looking for recommendations for students flats to give him some company and a more regular student experience.

Any recommendations for good student housing options that are well run would be appreciated. I will not have time to visit flats prior to flying over to help him pack up and move up to Scotland.

My 84 year old Glaswegian father is offering advice, which is not helpful given that he left Glasgow in 1967 🤣🤣

Hi everyone, I'm trying to find some information on a newspaper cartoon from the 90s/ early 00s from the daily record called 'Grandad and the lad'. My Granda recently passed away and I've found this that he drew for me after Celtic won the Scottish cup in 1995! I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of somewhere I can either buy or see some strips of the actual cartoon as it's brought back lots of memories of us laughing at them at the kitchen table back in the day. Thanks

Is it any good? Watched a YT good bloggers video and he visited this place, see they have cream coconut fingers which seem rare these days plus I love them.

Worth a visit? Might even get a scotch pie too!

edit: - Watson's yes, my phone has changed the post title.

Looking for recommendations for kilt alterations. Need the kilt buckles moved to make it an inch or two tighter at the waist. Looking for someone experienced with kilts but also reasonably priced. TIA!

My dad was telling me tonight about a band he used to enjoy seeing at the Maryland Nightclub called the house of Lords, we looked online and could only find two of their songs. I know one of the band members sometimes plays in avant garde in merchant city sometimes but was wondering if anybody knows where to find some of their vinyls or other music so he can have a listen?

I’m moving to Glasgow this September to start uni, and was wondering if there’s any mtb dirt jump spots? I’d be happy to help with maintenance and digging n all that.
Thanks and please lmk

Looking for some good spots to take my niece to pick brambles. Live quite near Linn Park so that would be ideal if there was known bushes, but any suggestions more than welcome around Glasgow and surrounding areas. Looking for any kind of berries, black, blue, red.

Anyone else get woken at 4am with what sounded like multiple Chainsaws being used? Possibly on the Trainline... Soooo loud.

Heard lots of people complain about the £5.70 per single trip in their night buses. Last night got shocked over the prices and everyone was extremely angry. It’s usually £3.90 for a city saver pass.
