Glasgow, Graffiti and Scumbags



Every town and city has its fair share of scumbags and Glasgow is no exception.

 Here's some evidence to demonstrate the point - one of Glasgow's three Billy Connolly murals defaced with juvenile graffiti by some mindless thug. 

I'm sure the local community must know the person responsible for this ugly, anti-social behaviour, so let's hope that someone does the right thing. 


  

Connolly 'Flabbergasted' (13/06/17)




How nice is this? - Billy Connolly is 'flabbergasted' at three new murals celebrating the Big Yin's life and times in his home city of Glasgow.

The murals are a 75th birthday present to Connolly, based on original portraits by the Scottish artists John Byrne, Jack Vettriano and Rachel MacLean.

I suspect it will be hard to pass by any of these buildings without thinking fondly of Connolly who is a great ambassador for Glasgow and Scotland - such a great tribute to one of the funniest men in the world.

One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'. Write to the leader of Glasgow City Council Write to the Chief Executive of Glasgow City Council Write to all elected members in Glasgow City Council Write to the party leaders in Glasgow City Council W
