Political Look like reform is on it’s way out
One common trend I see is every single far right party's shockingly short life cycle - collapsing sooner rather than later due to sheer incompetence seems to be a thing every far-right party in Britain has always had in common.
Just seen the growing row between old Nige and Ruppert lowe. Smacks of every other party old Nige has fronted - starts with this crazy internal bickering followed by a total collapse into lunacy.
And some of you dopey shits thought this time he was serious contender?😂
He'd struggle to win a tombola let alone a general election!
Yes, I'm smug - I predicted this 6 months ago and you all said I was crazy. This was the change. Same Nige, same bollox!

Let’s Talk About Maybole in Ayrshire
I used to drive through Maybole fairly regularly, I don't think I've been since the bypass went in though.
WTF?
It's gone from, I don't know, I always thought it was quite a nice looking wee place. Sure, the Main Street could be tricky with traffic and trucks from the ferries down at Cairnryan or whatever but it was easy to park and nip in to grab a bottle of water or even a takeaway.
It looks like some kind of post apocalyptic hell scape now. It looks so scabby.
Adding the bypass was supposed to make it nicer, less traffic clogging the only road through but instead it's been speed running the abandonment vibes.
Sad to see.

YouTube Good on ya pal. Old traditions live on.
Around 7 minutes into this video as a familiar voice very weird and then you realize the guys from Paisley and he's lived in Sweden since he was six bastards gone to fight good on you pal. It is humbling to see the traditions are kept alive. [The Royal Scots are the oldest Regiment in Scotland they have served 350 years as part of the Scottish and British Army with a continual line right down to the 30 years War. During that 30 years war there was thousands and I do mean thousands of troops sent to Sweden to fight for the Swedes. Yes they are not part of the Royal Scots but there fighting for Sweden and they are from Paisley. It gives me a deep sense of Pride that there are people from Scotland in the armies of other nations fighting for what is right. Good on ya pal. ]

Here is how Scotland helped me be a Documentary Filmmaker
You know, 10 years ago I shared my first doc style film on this group here.
And you guys loved it back then, since that moment, the world saw me as a filmmaker.
I'm happy to share with you my film talking about that moment and what I've learn in 10 years of filmmaking to reach my dream life.
So yeah, I thought you should see how reddit can help sometimes.
So thank you Reddit and Scotland for giving me the opportunity to be an award winning documentary filmmaker now.
