I expected better from New York!

  1. Headline is a weirdly written. It’s quoting Cummings:

    > “This is a great time to be representing Scotland in New York because I feel the values and our legacy and culture is what America is lacking these days. We are having a celebration today but there are protests going on against lack of freedoms, no government checks on the power government is given, while we are really good at looking after people who are different to us and ensuring a safety net. So I think it’s ironic that we’re celebrating the things we have in Scotland while people are having to protest what they don’t have here.”

  2. Yes.

    I was at the Tartan parade.  Two avenues over were the hands off protests.

    I was confused and protested at the tartan parade then went over the the protests with my saltire.

  3. Ahhh the BBC, twisting the narrative as always, to undermine anti-fascist sentiment from good people.
