This weekend marks the 80th anniversary of the Clydebank Blitz. The devastation that is caused to this town will never be forgotten. The events of 1941 serve as a sharp reminder of the horrors of war and the need for peace. We will remember❤️

One of the biggest misconceptions is that youth = no life experience. It’s not a lack of life experience but rather a different experience. It’s time to change the landscape of our elected representatives in politics and make it more reflected of the society it represents.
