Shock at shoppers’ face mask ignorance
INOTICED during a visit to Braehead shopping centre on Saturday that face coverings appear to be by choice rather than compulsory. I spotted dozens of mask-dodgers walking about the shopping centre.
I felt sorry for the store assistants who had to talk to these customers while they blatantly ignored the rules.
I think security guards in the shopping centre should enforce these rules and refuse entry. Stewart Kelly

WORLD famous Scottish cyclist Danny MacAskill peddled along the blade of a wind turbine to raise awareness of green energy, ahead of the COP26 conference.
It is a pity that he did not raise awareness of the tonnes of greenhouse gases emissions created in their manufacture, shipping and erection which will take years to recover.
No mention of all the millions of birds, bats and the insects they feed on being killed.
No mention that constraint payments for the 8400 turbines in Scotland, made when their electricity is not wanted, is now over £1 billion and is added to our electricity bills.
No mention that the gigantic blade he cycled along cannot be recycled and ends up in landfill. Turbines are certainly not green. Clark Cross

SO the leaders of Russia, China and Brazil are not coming to Glasgow for COP26.
What a surprise two of the worlds biggest polluters and a country that is systematically destroying the Amazon rainforest.
Why don’t the climate protesters go to these countries to protest or do they think that the UK has a bubble over it and is not affected by the rest of the world? Mark Mcnulty

EVERY criminal in Glasgow must rub their hands in glee when they find out they have to go to the Sheriff Court to be sentenced.
Under the SNP’s soft-touch policy just about every that comes up there when you read the
Glasgow Times, they all get Social Work supervision and told stay indoors for so many hours, or community service and told to behave themselves, and they say crime does not pay.

I WAS planning to go to Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum on Thursday, however I spotted that it is closed from Wednesday onwards for a couple of weeks. What a shame for visitors. Let’s close all the best attractions Glasgow has to offer – that makes sense.
