The UK government has announced plans to stage a colossal military parade through the heart of Glasgow, featuring controversial Trident nuclear missiles, in an effort to drum up support for the union.
The event, aimed at demonstrating the strength of the United Kingdom and reaffirming its commitment to national security, has drawn sharp criticism.
As part of the UK’s efforts to reinforce the Union amidst growing calls for Scottish independence, the Ministry of Defence has unveiled plans for a grand military procession through Glasgow’s bustling city centre. The parade will be headed by tartan-painted Trident missiles.
The parade will showcase the country’s military prowess, emphasising the Trident nuclear missile system.
Details of the event reveal an extensive line-up of military hardware, including fighter jets, tanks, and infantry regiments, all culminating in a dramatic flyover by the iconic Red Arrows. However, it is the inclusion of the Trident missiles that has drawn the most attention and sparked heated debates among politicians and citizens alike.
Scottish nationalists have denounced the parade as a blatant attempt to intimidate the population and distract from the legitimate concerns surrounding the Trident missile system’s presence in Scotland. Critics argue that the procession could escalate tensions and further polarise public opinion on the issue of independence.
“In an effort to rally support for the Union and remind our dear Scotch subjects of the benefits they enjoy as part of the United Kingdom, we have announced plans for a grand military parade through the heart of Glasgow, featuring the much-discussed Trident nuclear missiles,” said Minister of Union, Condescending and Cultural Affairs, Hugh Morus.
“We are confident that this magnificent display of military might will not only dazzle the native but also serve as a gentle reminder of the role they play in the broader UK defence strategy. After all, everyone needs a little nudge now and then to remember where their true allegiance lies.”
Despite these reassurances, the announcement of the parade has set the stage for potential protests and confrontations as the people of Glasgow prepare for a day of military spectacle and political tension.
Congraulations and thank you for reading the whole article, this is just an April Fools Day joke. The article above is not true and if anyone is sharing this after the 1st of April, please do remind them of that fact.
The purpose of this article, aside from our usual April Fools day joke, is to make the point that reading beyond the headline should be the norm every day, not just on the 1st of April. There’s a large volume of misinformation online, make sure you don’t add to it by sharing articles without reading them. Finally, be careful of the person sharing this article after the 1st of April as they very clearly don’t read what they share.V
I heard the parade was going to be led a giant inflatable Margaret Thatcher as well.
The tradition of writing on munitions has always been a puzzling one since even dumb bombs are fuzed to explode on impact so that the target has no opportunity to read the message.
Though a Trident D5 would undoubtedly look terrific with a tartan paint job there’s no chance of poo tin seeing that when it detonates above the Kremlin.
So I do like the idea of a military parade with missile floats to remind aggressors that we do have them and invest in our freedom. Not that I have any expectations of a free press in ruzzia making any report available to the serfs who live there. No doubt poo tin will jump at the chance to highlight western aggression to justify his war and threat of nuclear weapons.

Slava Ukraine!
Further to the announcement of the Trident Glasgow parade, the MoD has announced that a £95million contract has been signed with Babcock International plc to raise and refurbish the World War 1 battleship HMS Audacious. She was the fourth and last King George V-class dreadnought battleship built for the Royal Navy in the early 1910s.
On 27th October 1914 Audacious struck a mine off Tory Island, Ireland on her port side just forward of the aft engine room bulkhead and sank later that night, however all hands were saved. She was brand new and was working up with her crew as part of the Second Battle Squadron under Vice Admiral Warrender
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State & Minister for Defence Procurement James Heappey MP said “HMS Audacious cost the British taxpayer the equivalent of £5billion pounds in today’s money and we got no service from her at all. Armed with 13.5 inch guns on the midline she will be a fine addition to our Carrier Strike Fleet and though one of her magazines unfortunately blew up it seems there are 1000 armour piercing shells we can refurbish too”
HMS Audacious is expected to rejoin the Fleet in 2026 with a ships complement of 1025 rates and officers
I heard she was going to be turned into two frigates with the front and the back sections separately to be named HMS Aud and HMS Acious to supplement the fleet till the full number of T-26s enter service in around 2060.
The biggest April fool was the Ugandan President’s son going on about sending troops to Moscow to defend against the Imperialist invasion.
I think they have their imperialist confused..but it does show how effective Russia and china are at creating a counter western narrative in the global south.
I dunno, Russia assuming chairmanship of UN security council is a pretty good April fool?
Oh I can’t wait, I’ll be there.😎
Now if we could just convert one of these to a nuclear torpedo…. Lol 😁
Trump attended a Bastille Day parade and wanted an American parade. Could catch on.
Just like Red Square Parades.
Good idea. A kind of “Nuclear Pride” event. Love it. Lots of Glaswegians will turn out, anything for an excuse to party and drink hard.
Nuclear pride, that sir is hilarious….
And why not, reminds me of the sub text in my favourite film, Dr Strangelove … ” Or how I stopped worrying and learned to love the bomb”
Brilliant.
In all seriousness, I’m all for military parades, even just for raising awareness.
And I miss the Royal Tournament too.
The Russians do it. 😜
I’ve also read the parades with Tanks and other vehicles that used to run past or through Horseguards in the 50s, 60s were stopped due to the risk of collapse of parts of the Whitehall tunnel system beneath.
Don’t mention anything about tunnels under Whitehall Daniele, our resident Kremlin morse tappers will already be tapping back that intel…..
I mentioned the extensive bunker system once, but I think I got away with it 😂😂🤣
Trespassers will be tied up with piano wire! 🤪
Wonder if Johnski wants to hear about the extensive command bunker built under the Cotswolds? It’s near my house and can support upto 15 million Brits for upto 10 years. Underground swimming pools, gyms, schools, universities, park land, all lit by artificial lights. We’ve got hydroponic farms, spare back up nuclear generators. Even an underground rail network to link them all. All nice and safe 100m below ground.
My brothers and I built it over a period of 20 years and it’s now ready to go. 😂🤣😂😅😂🤣🫣 Johnski you Muppet put your keyboard down. Go stand in front of a mirror and ask yourself the simple question. “How did I get to this state of affairs?”
Then go back to your handler in the basement of the Kremlin and tell him you quit.
I would rather the UK government fired the missiles at Glasgow.
