Isn't it weird...l lived in Glasgow's West End for 13 years (Scottish born and bred)...l loved living there...but listening to people from other areas of the city (east end etc)...l have no idea what they are saying, it's like a different language..embarrassing 😩

[@niamhstrike1384]

[@colshythecomedian]

Is Cruikshank the mysterious hard man from the “fighting talk in the west end” video??

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

That's all very well but what responsibility will this publication take if innocent people are falsely 'named and shamed' ?
There are many examples in this country of innocent men and women being targeted by thick vigilante mobs who heard 'rumours'
Remember about 10 years ago when innocent people were falsely targeted as paedophiles because they had the same name?
Justice should be in a court of law.

[@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1]

Tar Man- Remember when the tabloids 'named and shamed' alleged paedophiles about 15 years ago and idiots targeted people who were paediatricians? It is stupid and reckless.

[@watermelonsugarhi]

Or when they attacked a paediatric doctor. Because they don't know the difference between paediatric and paedophile

[@chrismeadows4347]

[@t1mTV]

nothing wrong with exposing criminals, but this isn't really journalism. all the stuff he writes about is a matter of public record that anyone can look up. publish what you like, just dont call yourself a journalist.

[@iainlindsay5687]

[@williamhutchison6400]

One of glasgows biggest gangsters my arse,

[@ewanashby607]

[@frankmanzeroy7034]

The Digger is a good right-wing pro-police paper.

+Frank Manzeroy The cover accusing police of being part of a drug gang didn't seem too 'pro-police.'

[@ewanwilliamson6606]

+Frank Manzeroy full of lies

[@tamthomas4036]

wonder if that boys still alive ?
