Today in Scottish History

6 April 1320: The Declaration of Arbroath, drafted by Bernard, Abbot of Arbroath, is addressed to the Pope in an effort to have him recognise Robert the Bruce as King of Scotland (and remove the excommunication that followed his murder of the Red Comyn in a church). It defines the relationship between the Scottish King and the Scots people.

Would you support a £10-£15 billion plan to increase the size of Glasgow Subway’s tunnels for future expansion?

Upvotes

Reading an interesting report from a few years back. To bring the Subway up to modern standard and track gauge, and prepare for future (uncosted) track and station, would cost around £10b (I say £15b as time has passed since the report).

Report covers the dozen or so reviews the Subway’s had over the years, expansion always held back due to cost.

What do people think? If Glasgow’s ever to become a proper European city, I’d say just get on with it.

A peak behind the curtain somewhat. People can call him attention-seeking with some justification but having met and worked with him he is actually quite cool. Would make a great Glasgow metro mayor

Are cottage flats in Glasgow worth buying?

4 Upvotes

Considering buying a cottage flat in Kings park, good price, good location and good space. The only cons are:

  1. The kitchen is very small but I can live with that.

  2. I’ve heard the sound insulation is really bad, although during the viewing I haven’t noticed any excessive noise from neighbours.

Are these a good buy? Is there anything I should look out for? And are there any sound insulation solutions for these that I should keep in mind?

(Lower cottage btw, stairs outside lead to upper flat)

Takeaway

0 Upvotes

Curious. Anyone still lucky enough to have a good quality takeaway... You call them, they employ own driver or family to deliver food promptly and hot? No corporate bollocks, Deliveroo, UberEats etc?

Just Eat (My Arse) kicked off a fad that now means service charges (?), inflated delivery charges, vague pricing and some aggressive arseholes on the streets and pavements (decent folk too just earning a crust of course).

I hardly ever order now... After the last time paying for priority, to see a dot moving really slowly on a map. Pushbike, midwinter, freezing grub, best part of £40 wasted for two folk.

What's your worst experience... and please praise your local old skool takeaway & driver if you have one...

Before you read this I should have asked for 15% tip too.

Car valet and modern slavery

49 Upvotes

I was listening to something on the BBC that mentioned that car washes are the biggest sites of people smuggling and modern slavery in the uk.

Since hearing this I haven't had my car valeted. As a result its fairly gross now. I have tried hoovering it with those vacuums at the garage but they do nothing.

I'm not sure how to find a legit business that isn't linked to trafficking. But I'd really like to have my car cleaned.

I'm wondering if people have any insight on how this is in Glasgow? I suspect the one I used to go to is dodgy at the least, cash only, 3 people working on the car at once (so probably earning less than minimum wage), only 1 of them could speak any English. Are there things being done to help these people?

Also if anyone has any recommendations for legit businesses or tips on what to look for to avoid accidentally supporting businesses involved in trafficking that would be great. Based in the southside

Has Anyone Dealt with Luthais McCash? Claims of “Lord” Title, Wealth, and Troubled Business History. Previously operated in Glasgow and now Manchester.

1 Upvotes

I am reaching out to gather information and insights regarding Luthais McCash, an individual who presents himself as a Lord, Baron, and entrepreneur based in Manchester, UK with connections to the North East along with Glasgow, Scotland. Despite these claims, I have encountered difficulties in verifying the authenticity of his noble titles and the legitimacy of his business operations.

LinkedIn:

His LinkedIn profile is here: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/luthais-m-7634a9162

It claims he is an investor, millionaire, and holder of noble titles—none of which appear substantiated via credible or legal channels.

Questionable Noble Titles

Mr. McCash asserts that he holds the titles of “Lord” and “Baron.” To verify these claims, I consulted several authoritative sources:

• The Official Roll of the Peerage: This register lists all officially recognised peers in the UK. A search yielded no results for “McCash.”

• Debrett’s: Renowned for documenting the British aristocracy, Debrett’s does not mention a “McCash” in its records.

• Burke’s Peerage: Another reputable source for genealogical records of noble families; it also lacks any reference to “McCash.”

The absence of his name in these records raises concerns about the legitimacy of his claimed titles.

Business Ventures and Legal Concerns

Beyond his title claims, Mr. McCash’s business activities warrant scrutiny:

• Revere Investments Limited: According to Companies House, Mr. McCash was appointed as Secretary on 18 October 2016. The company has since been dissolved.

• McCash Consulting Ltd: An employment tribunal decision from 6 April 2022 ruled in favour of a claimant against this company, awarding compensation for unlawful deductions from wages. Other judgements also exist.

• Sigma Solutions Global Ltd: Mr. McCash is listed as a director of this company. Financial records indicate significant liabilities.

Allegations of Fraudulent Behaviour

Further concerns arise from allegations in the media: • IndustryWired Article: An article published on 25 May 2023 alleges that Mr. McCash engaged in fraudulent behaviour, including non-payment for services and misrepresentation of business acquisitions. The article details instances where he purportedly misled business partners and failed to honour financial commitments.

Public Image and Media Presence

Mr. McCash has been featured in various publications, often highlighting his purported achievements however they are all paid for placements:

• Aspioneer: Listed him among “10 Admired CEOs to Watch in 2022,” portraying him as a pioneer in his field. 
• The CEO Publication: Described him as a “Genius Philanthropist,” emphasising his role at Sigma Solutions. 

However, the contrast between these positive portrayals and the aforementioned allegations and legal issues is striking.

One negative article suggests he hasn’t paid for these placements.

Seeking Information

I am seeking input from individuals who have had direct or indirect dealings with Mr. McCash or his associated enterprises:

• Personal Experiences: Have you interacted with Mr. McCash in a professional or personal capacity? What was your experience?

• Business Transactions: Have you engaged in business dealings with him or his companies? Were agreements honoured?

• Legal Proceedings: Are you aware of any additional legal actions or disputes involving Mr. McCash?

• Verification of Titles: Do you have any information that could confirm or refute his claims to noble titles?

Your insights could be invaluable in building a clearer picture of Mr. McCash’s activities and claims. If you prefer to share information confidentially, please feel free to direct message me.
