This is unacceptable & deeply uncomfortable viewing. An entire white panel questioning a brown woman like a suspect. Ed Balls and Kate have left their homes this morning with no fear. Zarah and every other brown/black person left knowing they are a target

@johnasa69 @CmilkComFoot Any time, John. I know what you're going to say....,"aye, if you answer your phone!" 😅

I gained loads from being around the process, too. Hoping to make it up for a visit at some point!

[Paddy McKenna @PaddyMcK]

This came up in my photo memories from 3 years ago today. What a journey @CmilkComFoot have been on to save Barlia (a journey longer than 3 years!). The difference they've made to the pitches & thus to the people is well worth a look over on their socials.

Well done to all 👏!

I set off to discover something new about my city, joining two different tours exploring new, or overlooked historical perspectives. In this article, I share my experience with tour guides @Henbell and @KAMackinnon of @Radical_Glasgow.
