Thanks for this thoughtful piece Gerry. It speaks to the shock and sadness we’re all feeling. Let’s have this disaster be a turning point for the City: a wake up call and a call to action. ‘People make Glasgow’ when they’re supported and encouraged in their passion and pride for this great city.

Thousands join 'Hands off Greenland' protests in Denmark against Trump The protest followed Donald Trump's warning on Friday that he 'may put a tariff' on countries that oppose his plans to take over mineral-rich Greenland, which is an autonomous territory of Denmark.

Finally, Europeans are taking to the streets to protest against the American aggression against Europe.

But it should not have taken this long. And it should not only be in 🇩🇰🇬🇱.

If you want your leaders to to stop their supplication to Trump and fight for you, then you need to tell them.

The wisdom of Charlie Brown 🥰

Thank you for this excellent analysis. You have put into words what we all understood immediately from the footage.

The UK’s Fish Fund - Another Slap in the Face to Scottish Industry

🎣 Scotland brings the catch; Westminster keeps the cash.

🟦 Scotland lands 60% of UK fish but gets under 8% of the new £360m fishing fund.

An equal union?
