A slight diversion today and no I am not knocking our English friends South of the Border, on the contrary I am heading down South myself next week for a holiday.

But I am extremely perturbed about what is happening and Farage’s forecast of what is to come does not bode well for anyone. What does he know and is he involved in the incitement of all the violence?

Tommy Robinson has said he is coming to Glasgow and rebuffed any suggestions that he is not welcome with some very crude language which in itself suggests we too are in for trouble.

GB is broken, of that, there can be no denial but this kind of violence will not end well and will not fix the problem.

English Nationalism is NOT the same as Scottish Nationalism and the Authorities must stop any advance of it coming North of the Border.

It only took a spark to set the fires alight, sadly those children who were murdered in Southport have been used as the catalyst for racist violence even though the perpetrator was English, the fact that he was of a different colour was enough for the far right brigade to take to the streets.

In Scotland we think differently, we welcome all and need all so now is the time to stick together and deny the English far-right their day of glory in Glasgow in September.

Just stay at home and keep your kids at home, safe!

We have our own problems in Scotland but they are different and we will deal with them in a different way, a peaceful way.
