John Slaven, GMB organiser at Glasgow City Council, says Police Scotland staff are most likely to have accessed the council network and is calling for Glasgow City Council bosses to explain why. "As a matter of urgency, we are asking Glasgow City Council to explain exactly what is going on. A Glasgow City Council spokeswoman said: "Police Scotland officers do not monitor live public space CCTV cameras. "They would only reposition cameras in the event of an emergency or high-risk situation if no council staff were present." A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Police Scotland officers can access CCTV to conduct retrospective enquiries during the times when council staff are not on duty."

🚨 This may look like I am in a new crime drama with Sir Iain Duncan Smith... Using a speed gun we found some cyclists exceed the 20mph limit for cars, with @MPIainDS calling for a change in the law. @LBC pic.twitter.com/Jg67k5sImA — Henry Riley (@HenryRiley1) May 15, 2024It's in that context that a road.cc reader got in touch with a link to an interview Duncan Smith conducted with the Sunday Times back in 2019. “The dial was stuck at zero — I had no idea how fast I was going,” he said.

Barry Ferguson might have led the dressing room as captain for the majority of it but he had a whole host of lieutenants backing him up on the park and off it. The need to get more presence among the squad in the dressing room. You had a lot of physical players who had a real presence within that dressing room. If they can get the right balance with the right characters in the dressing room - guys that can deal with the expectations - then that’s a massive help.

Jimmy Kimmel Taunts Trump With Mother Of All Fact Checks After Courthouse RantJimmy Kimmel spotted a bizarre comment by Donald Trump as he spoke outside court on Wednesday after the Stormy Daniels hush money case went to the jury. He did the crimes,” Kimmel said, adding that the only move Trump has left is to complain the trial is rigged. “Mother Teresa could not beat those charges,” Trump declared outside the courthouse. “That’s right,” Kimmel sarcastically agreed. “Even if Mother Teresa herself had sex with and paid off a porn star, after a round of golf, even she would have trouble getting away with it.”See more in his Monday night monologue:

Anthony Scaramucci Reveals 'Nervous Tic' That Shows Trump Is Feeling The Heat Right NowFormer White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci flagged former President Donald Trump’s “nervous tic” that’s a sign of his outlook as the jury began deliberations in his New York hush money case on Wednesday. “Mother Teresa could not beat these charges,” the former president told reporters outside the courtroom, while moving his hands together and apart. “If you see that accordion move that he’s doing right there, that’s a nervous tic of his,” Scaramucci, a staunch Trump critic since a 10-day gig as his White House communications director in 2017, said in an appearance on “The Hill on NewsNation” podcast. “And so, when he gets upset, he always goes to the accordion move and so that’s a tell that he’s bummed out,” he added. He added that Trump is upset and “you can see it in his face.” However, he said he doesn’t think the trial will have a “big impact” on the November election.
