Growth starts with people - some reflections from me in the gap between speaking at the People Management Awards last night and actually starting on Monday! https://t.co/R0B9fWI9WX
@fatweegee@scotlandscoeff1 Am aware. But it sets in context why Scottish clubs with big gates aren't in as strong a position in Europe as once we were.
With the 26s and the 31s on their way too it’s fair to say we are, at least partially, back. More to do, but denial of the North Atlantic (and small patches of the South Atlantic) to adversaries is the primary UK security priority.
BREAKING:
6th Astute-class submarine, HMS Agamemnon (laid down in 2013) has sailed from @BAES_Maritime Barrow shipyard today for the first time, heading to her new home in Faslane.

The BBC focusing on 'most-read' stories - which are no doubt being widely reported elsewhere - is the exact opposite of what a publicly-funded broadcaster should be doing.
Click-chasing, pure and simple.
Good sign. Viewing the 21s as closer to the As is long overdue. Better for him and Curtis to feature there than not play with the As, underpinned by the clarity that they are still in the As picture.
James Wilson is heading back to Scotland to play for the 21s. Still considered part of the national team and could join back up with Pocognoli's squad.

Spent last night talking all things #AI in #HR with the #CIPD branch for North Staffs and South Cheshire.
Getting involved with the branch community is definitely the best way to drive value from @cipd membership

Gas leak closes railway at Didcot. All Oxf/Reading trains cancelled at Brum as no staff to take them south. Sure would be nice to have a brand new railway from MK to Oxford to take the weight tonight….
A year finished & not open. Open the railway. @lfg_uk
What a great resource I’ve just been sent. Thank you @Dublinate
You just type in your surname and you can see where it’s historically and recently found in GB, associated first names, ethnic origin, characteristics of the areas etc.

A desperately sorry tale of luxury beliefs overriding economic growth and prosperity in my home town of Hull.
The most depressing line in the whole article: "the BBC understands workers across the sites will be kept on while Ineos tries to buy liquefied natural gas (LNG) directly from the US at lower prices"
Sourcing that LNG will come at four times the carbon footprint of domestically-extracted gas. Well done everybody for an energy policy that makes us poorer, more polluting, and less resilient.���👋

Pretty depressing that in modern Britain it takes three years and £237m to build something like... this.
As @BritainRemade have pointed out, the Faroe Islands opened the Sandoy Tunnel in 2023 after spending £99m (£107m in today's money) over about four years. It is 10 kilometres long.
