The Silent Protests Continue - this time its in Falkirk.
There has been another 'Silent Protest' this time in Falkirk where a group of respectful black clad protestors assembled quietly to lay a wreath at the war memorial. This group carried a flag bearing the Falkirk motto; "
These protests are always organised and disciplined and silent. BM Scotland is not involved in organising or taking part in these protests but believes that these public displays are moving domestic politics in Scottish towns and cities in the right direction.
There has also been an anti-migrant hotel protest in Falkirk
"Demonstrations held a year after first protests at asylum seekers hotel."
"Demonstrations have been held in Falkirk almost a year after groups clashed outside a former hotel which was housing asylum seekers.
"Anti-immigration group Voices for Falkirk gathered outside the Cladhan Hotel – the scene of several clashes last summer - on Saturday as part of an event under the banner "The Right Unites".
Meanwhile, pro-immigration demonstrators Falkirk For All and Stand Up To Racism took part in a unity march through the town.
The two groups briefly came together near a bandstand but were separated by police before dispersing."
"BBC Scotland News understands the Cladhan is no longer being used as accommodation for asylum seekers.
Officers were deployed in order to avoid a repeat of scenes in Glasgow last month when anti-racism and anti-immigration protesters clashed on Glasgow Green.
The Cladhan was the site of several demonstrations last summer, which were attended by hundreds of people on both sides, and led to multiple arrests. Protests have continued over the past year."
Figures from the Home Office showed that 6,587 people were seeking asylum in Scotland as of 31 March this year.
More than half of those are based in Glasgow.
Reluctantly some mainstream media outlets admit the truth behind the anti-immigration protests in Falkirk.
"Protests last year were inflamed by the conviction of an asylum seeker from Afghanistan for raping a 15-year-old girl in the town.
Sadeq Nikzad was jailed for nine years at the High Court in Livingston last June following the attack in October 2023.
Earlier this week, Muhammad Sheikhi, 23, a former resident at the Cladhan was jailed for four years for sexually assaulting two women in Falkirk in November last year."
SCOTLAND MUST NOT GO THE WAY OF LARGE PARTS OF ENGLAND
STOP SETTLING IMMIGRANTS IN SCOTLAND.
Spreading the BM message in the outer districts of Edinburgh - Scotland Awake!
