UKIP leader blasted for filming unresponsive man on Glasgow street
Nick Tenconi shared a clip of the man - who was on the ground and appeared to be unresponsive - near to St Enoch Square in Glasgow city centre. UKIP's leader has been blasted on social media after posting footage of a vulnerable man he found passed out on a Glasgow street. Nick Tenconi shared a clip of the man - who was on the ground and appeared to be unresponsive - near to St Enoch Square in the city centre on Sunday (July 27). As Glasgow Live reports, the UKIP leader was in the city for a "mass deportation" rally, which was met by counter-protesters. Tenconi claims in the post that he stopped after spotting the man 'lying unconscious in the street', and he continued to film the man while he waited for an ambulance to arrive. In the video, he says: "I just don't understand people just walking by. I've been trying to assist this man for 10 minutes - on the phone to 999. I don't get it. People just walking by, they don't care. "It's unacceptable. You've got to help people, guys." The clip, which has been viewed over half a million times, was slammed by supporters and critics alike, with some branding the move a 'new low'. One person wrote: "Wow filming him for clicks and engagement. You earned top stars in the virtue signalling league today mate. All praise your virtue and compassion." Another added: "New low - filming an unconscious guy for engagement." A third said: "You really have to question both the ethics and political instincts of somebody who would film and upload this. What the hell are you doing?" A fourth wrote: "I actually did the same thing a couple of weeks ago - didn't film it (with my 2nd phone,) didn't publish my do goodery on the internet. Just spent a few minutes of my time to help. That's all. If hope if I was in that position, someone would help me, not post my predicament on X." Tenconi hit back at people who accused him of "taking advantage of a vulnerable person," in a statement defending his actions. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

He said he checked if the man was breathing before following the instructions given by 999 operators who advised against placing him in the recovery position and asked someone to 'get a defibrillator' while he stayed with him. The UKIP leader added: "People like me don't care about being liked", and says he decided to film to highlight that no one else stopped to help the man. Tenconi added: "Maybe those who disapprove of the video should question why I made it rather than be so quick to judge and slander. "As for my justifications for filming., I've explained this very clearly in the caption of the video on X. I am disgusted that many people walked past and didn't stop to help. The video highlights how desensitised and accepting many people in Glasgow are of violence, crime, and not loving thy neighbour. "I knew how many people would see that video and when the paramedic was asking me to wait with the man, I took 20 seconds to highlight this. "I do not regret showing the man's face, I hope that someone who knows the man sees the video and does something to help him. Maybe this is the wake up call — his friends and family need to do the right thing."

Donald Trump departs golf course on final day of Scotland visit
Donald Trump has officially opened his new golf course in Aberdeenshire on the final day of his visit to Scotland A false alarm sparked a police cordon after a vehicle had to be searched outside the Menie Estate Trump met First Minister John Swinney who said he was 'pleasant company' It follows a meeting and press conference with Sir Keir Starmer on Monday Trump cut the ribbon on a second 18-hole course at his resort in Menie The President will fly back to the US on Air Force One on Tuesday evening During his trip he has made comments about the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, Epstein conspiracy theories and his love for Scotland Donald Trump has left his golf resort in the north of Scotland as he begins his journey home to the US. Trump boarded the Marine One helicopter at around 4.30pm after a false alarm sparked a cordon near the Menie Estate. Police Scotland assistant chief constable Emma Bond said a cordon was set up shortly after 3pm for checks on a vehicle. A search was carried out and nothing criminal was found. Marine One will take Trump to Lossiemouth, where he will board Air Force One to fly to Washington. It comes after he officially opened a new 18-hole course at Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeenshire on Tuesday morning. The US President teed off in celebration and led a round played by some famous guests. Trump thanked his son Eric, who he said had 'worked so hard' on creating the New Course at the resort. Eric Trump had earlier said he and the Trump International team had created an 'amazing masterpiece' at the New Course. The US President said his family had taken a 'beautiful piece of land, and made it much more beautiful'. Trump said he was looking forward to playing the course. 'We'll play it very quickly and then I go back to DC and we put out fires all over the world,' he said. 'We did one yesterday – you know we stopped the war. We've stopped about five wars. That's much more important than playing golf. As much as I like it, it's much more important.' Earlier, Trump met briefly with Scottish First Minister John Swinney for a one-to-one. The First Minister talked to the President about the war in Gaza, the Scottish economy, and oil and gas taxation, and they were joined by advisors, the President's second son, Eric Trump, and Donald Trump Jr. They did not discuss an exemption to tariffs for Scotch whisky on Tuesday because the leaders talked about it at length on Monday over dinner. The First Minister told Trump that Scotland was particularly concerned about Gaza's plight and that the president is in a unique position to move it on. On oil and gas, they agreed that the tax is too high at the moment. The leaders spoke for just over 15 minutes before posing together for pictures in front of a US flag and the saltire of Scotland. Swinney joined a small audience for the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and Guy Kinnings, CEO of DP World Tour, said the list of illustrious guests was 'validation of the appeal of golf as sport and as an industry'. Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar, English football coach and former player Robbie Fowler, Italian football player and manager Gianfranco Zola, and Scottish former professional footballer Jim Leighton were among other big names at the event. It's the fifth day of the US President's private visit to Scotland, which has been described as a working holiday. After meeting with the Prime Minister on Monday, Trump cut the ribbon on the 18-hole course at Trump International Golf Links on the Menie Estate on Tuesday. Later, he's expected to return to Washington on Air Force One. Trump landed at Prestwick Airport on Friday evening and spent the weekend playing golf at his resort in Turnberry. On Sunday, Trump briefly met European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen and agreed to a trade deal setting a 15% tariff on most European Union goods. Trump said it was the 'biggest deal ever made'. On Monday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer travelled to Scotland to meet the US President. The leaders discussed the US-UK trade deal and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza. Trump and Sir Keir took part in what proved to be a lengthy press conference, with the president discussing a number of topics. Getty Images Donald Trump Prime Minister Keir Starmer speak prior to a bilateral meeting at the Trump Turnberry Golf Courses. The Republican Party leader spoke of his 'great love' for Scotland and said he wanted to see the nation 'thrive'. He returned to his long-running objections to wind turbines, branding them 'ugly monsters' and speaking of his admiration for North Sea oil and gas. Discussing the war in Ukraine, Trump said he was 'very disappointed' in Russian President Vladimir Putin and suggested he would bring forward a deadline for Russia to agree to a ceasefire. The US president called Sir Sadiq Khan a 'nasty person', which prompted Sir Keir to come to the defence of his 'friend' the London Mayor. Posting on his Truth Social network, on Tuesday, the President said: 'North Sea Oil is a treasure chest for the United Kingdom. The taxes are so high, however, that it makes no sense. They have essentially told drillers and oil companies that, 'we don't want you'. 'Incentivize the drillers, fast. A vast fortune to be made for the UK, and far lower energy costs for the people!' Trump will visit the UK again in September for an unprecedented second state visit.

University Lecturer tells how he made images of missing Clydebank man
Dr Tobias Houlton, a lecturer in Craniofacial Identification and Forensic Imaging at the University of Dundee, was approached by Police Scotland in May to generate an idea of what a man who has been missing for 22 years would look like today. Receiving the brief from officers, Toby was presented with the case of David McCallum, who vanished at just 31 years old. Dr Tobias Houlton, University of Dundee. (Image: Supplied) Having worked on numerous missing person cases before, there was something unique about this case. Dr Houlton said: "In these sad events where people have gone missing for various reasons, we are contacted to develop images that could be used to assist an investigation. "There are various challenges. For example, we don't really know what their living circumstances are like. "The police mentioned that there was a chance that [David] might have been living homeless. "I think with this particular case, 22 years is a long time. It's certainly one of the longer spans of time that I've worked with. "These cases are invariably challenging, and the added issue is you never know if the individual actually wants to be identified or not." Images generated by Dr Houlton of David McCallum, 22 years on. (Image: Police Scotland) David McCallum was last seen at home with his girlfriend and two children before he was reported missing. His car, a black Ford Focus, was found abandoned two days later on Sunday, March 30, 2003. Officers have worked with various authorities, including workers involved with the homeless community in London. READ NEXT: Glasgow thug who stabbed nephew after he swiped his kebab sauce jailed READ NEXT: Rapist behind bars after police approach 5 victims to snare serial abuser Dr Houlton says he was conscious about using all the information he had to create the best possible likeness of him. He added: "There was a whole array of images that were produced to give an impression of how the same face can vary in appearance just by changes in the length of the hair presentation or a beard. "There were no details as to whether to anticipate androgenic alopecia, male pattern balding, other than there was some thinning around the temples. "I saw in one of the earlier images available of him that he had an earring, so chances are, with the amount of time that's gone by, he might have preserved it. "The emphasis of all these images is to help people realise that this person is still missing and we need to be observant and looking out for him, and give people an impression of how the individual may look today, bearing in mind that 22 years have gone by. "It is a tremendous ordeal for families and friends involved in trying to look for a loved one; it's very distressing." [[Police Scotland]] works in close partnership with the Missing People Charity.
