I've been desperately trying for years to find someone who has...

@SackTheBawbags @fatweegee @GlasgowCC There is no sword on the statue in question.

@ColinBEdgar @fatweegee @GlasgowCC 4 articles (so far) and a historian, all say that the weapons won't be going back on the statues for political reasons. Hasn't the decision to remove the weapons been made already? dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-…

The transformation of George Square is moving into its next phase, with the planting of the 46 new trees now taking place. Watch to find out more!

@SackTheBawbags @fatweegee @GlasgowCC What we know is that all the statues have been removed for cleaning and that they will be going back in June and July.

@ColinBEdgar @fatweegee @GlasgowCC You're saying that the weapons ARE going back on the statues? And my point is that no one will actually know the outcome until the square is complete. This is what we *do* know: heraldscotland.com/news/25641230.… thetimes.com/uk/scotland/ar… dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-… glasgowlive.co.uk/news/glasgow-n…

🔔 Union St – Update – Fri 13 Mar 2026 Yesterday we appointed specialist contractors to demolish remaining Union Street building destroyed by fire & contractors began on site this morning (13 Mar) Update➡️ ow.ly/Q67V50Ytllg 📽️ Hear from Council Leader Cllr. Susan Aitken:

@EddieBarnes23 Also weird. Tipping it down in George Square, blue skies over Buchanan Street.

Hard to escape the conclusion that weather in Glasgow is actively malicious. It’s not that it’s raining every time I go out, it’s that it *starts* raining every time I go out

I’ve no idea what happened in this case. But the parade of older journalists wheeling out the “well I got constantly bawled out as a young reporter and it never did me any harm” line needs to stop. Bullying causes real harm, times have changed, and we shouldn’t pretend it’s fine.

Jeane Freeman was a smart, tough broad with a wicked sense of humour. I'm glad I was able to see her a couple of times over the past week. She took her diagnosis with remarkable fortitude, though admitted concern that her medication might affect her well-turned ankles.
