In Belgium they have cancelled Disturbed's gig.

When is Glasgow going to do the right thing and stop the zionist scum playing in the Hydro?

@johnswinney.bsky.social - you were only too happy to stop other gigs.

Get it done.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

1/Was a massive honour to be invited and involved in this official rough sleeper count by Simon Community Scotland in the early hours of Friday Morning (10th Oct)

One of our volunteers was tasked to search the Patrick area of Glasgow along with another member of the count..

2/On the morning there were 26 rough sleepers recorded which is a consistent number over the past few months.
We regularly meet the guys from Simon community when on our Sunday evening outreach and share intel when needed to ensure the guys out there on the streets get as much support as they can 😊

The fuzz on the bass of BRMC is unmatched.

The type of deep fuzz when you see them live you feel the bass rattle your ribs.

Its glorious. Roll on December!

Zack Polanski used the ‘F’ word twice on BBCQT last night… and the audience applauded him for it 👇

"You actually are a fascist from a far right party… this is racism, this is facism and we should call it out"

For the 1st time ever, I'm in 2 minds on whether to collect an album I've pre-ordered...

Listened to the new Ashcroft album on the way to work this morning, and on first listen its comfortably his weakest yet 😬

Very poppy in parts, & others are copies of older songs

Hoping it might be a grower.

If only people would stop shagging flags and read this article instead.

They might just start to understand where the problem actually is and where their anger should be directed to.

People seeking asylum are not the problem.

The problems are incompetent governments & billionaires who are profiting from human misery.

Be angry at them.
