Things which you don't find in Glasgow.

Streets which are regularly swept. #Broadstairs Image
Main street pavements which are litter free.

Bins which are not overflowing and which are regularly emptied.

Things you don't see in Glasgow - Part 3.

Canterbury - like Glasgow a university city. Main street & pavements spotless & litter free on a Friday night Image
WTAF this!! It must be a mistake surely. Trains running from the Capital to home well after 10 in fact well after 12 - surely not. Image
The above tweets beggar the question as to why Glasgow's infrastructure is so badly malfunctioning compared to other cities & towns in the rUK?

Especially when Scotland receives an annual £10 billion fiscal transfer from Westminster which makes every man, woman and child, £2000
better off, than their counterparts in the rUK. It would appear that

potholed roads
overflowing bins
litter strewn pavements
& trains which stop running before 10pm

Are the price that Glaswegians pay for electing an SNP/Green GDC which are completely unfit for office.

1) I misread Angus's tweet as 'the preposterous papers'. On reflection my 1st reading was bang on.

This article gives us a fascinating insight into how the old adage, that a lie has gone 3 times round the world before the truth has got its boots on, works in reality.
2) Tribal epistemology tells us that for fake news to be created - 4 things need to be in place first.
1. Firstly. you need a completely unsubstantiated lie. In Angus's article we have not 1 but 2 whoppers. Ist being that a Scexit Scotland will be better off than being in the UK
3) All researched evidence suggest that a generation of weapons grade austerity is the most likely outcome of Scexit. The 2nd lie is that Scotland will gain EU membership. EU entry criteria state all members must have a Fiscal Deficit of <3% of GDP, Scotland's FD is 23% of GDP.

1. For leave UK to win it is absolutely vital that inconvenient Scexit economic truths such as loss of Barnet, Deficit, Pop share of UK debt, interest charges on debt, start up costs of new country, foreign currency reserves, capital flight are NEVER brought to the attention
2. of the electorate. Every Scottish based daily has a Nat journalist embedded ensuring that negative Scexit economic articles are never written which ensures that this taboo topic is kept out of public Scexit discourse. This allows them to concentrate exclusively on churning
3.out pro indy articles reinforcing the Nat narrative that a hard Brexit which Scotland didn't vote for + a hard right Bojo premiership = Leave UK as the only option. Seductive though this trope is, the electorate are not being informed of the important information that
