In the Glasgow Times, two days ago:
Disorder in Glasgow this week has been branded as “disgraceful” and is said to have been ‘orchestrated by individuals who are not from the city’.
Protests took place outside homes in the Cranhill and Castlemilk areas earlier this week after claims spread locally and online that ‘suspected sex offenders’ were living there.
A significant police response was deployed to both incidents to try and control crowds who could be heard shouting “get them out” and ‘no peace for the beast’ at the properties.
David Kennedy, the general secretary of the Scottish Police Federation, which represents rank-and-file officers, said the scenes were “disgraceful” and had been “orchestrated by individuals that are not from Glasgow”.1
‘Not from Glasgow?’ Did anyone think he must mean some other part of Scotland?
Not picked up by any of the MSM, the Ferret, yesterday seemed to know more, much more, with multiple sources pointing to extreme right-wing groups from England travelling for several protests.2
This is not surprising. Even BBC Scotland has explicitly pointed to protesters being ‘bussed in’ though avoiding any suggestion that they were from outwith Scotland.3
The Ferret was also able to identify plans for this in upcoming protests:
UTC – which rejects claims it is far right – posted on Facebook: “We at UTC, alongside groups from Perth, Dundee, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Falkirk, and many more across Scotland, as well as at least three groups from England, will be standing together at Glasgow Green on 25 July at 12 noon.” 4
What is the comparative strength of extreme-right-wing groups in Scotland?

I can’t understand why the Police or the Media cannot spot these right-wing infiltrators immediately .
They are fairly easy to identify as they generally have bruised knuckles due to their Neanderthal gait . Or , they emulate one of their leaders by wearing manky jaikits !

I hate this mindset of “these fascist vampire can’t be possibly Scottish, they’re GOT to be ENGLISH!”
Just admit we have a fascism problem and drop the fucking exceptionalism…
