My latest blog explores a new initiative which aims to improve early detection and diagnosis of prostate cancer using a simple blood test - led by Sir Chris Hoy
A good news story for Scottish men!

A shop owner in my constituency was ignored by the police when he reported shoplifting.
But when he displayed pictures of the thieves, the police showed up - to tell him that those pictures violated GDPR.
Madness. A free run for criminals, while normal people get crushed.
Turning Japanese, I think I’m turning Japanese
With Japan about to take on Brazil in the World Cup Round of 32 my recent blog looks at why the Japanese will clean the ground and tidy the changing rooms after they win and much more!

Every year, it only takes a few fist pumps from a player aimed at the box containing their coaches, family and other hanger-oners or aimed directly at their opponent for me to realise I hate Tennis! #Wimbledon
This is how the Net Zero bollocks works …
The “green” ferry project in Scotland was supposed to cost £97 Million. And has actually cost taxpayers about £500 MILLION! … and now they will fund another £600,000 for specialist consultants because ferry staff need training to handle imported LNG.
And that LNG is imported via Kent before being transported hundreds of miles to Scotland…. Using diesel.
After all of that, the CO₂ saving is less than 9% er …. And that’s optimistic!
The entire exercise has been a pointless waste of Taxpayers money for private companies profit! … 🤡
ℹ️ In order to protect the playing surface and allow further treatment to be applied to our pitch here at the Sarens PSG Stadium ahead of the new season, we have had to take the decision to move Saturday’s match against @RossCounty to an alternative venue.
We are delighted that our good friends and neighbours at @clachfc have very kindly agreed to host the match at Grant Street Park.
The game will now kick off at 1:00pm on Saturday.

£42 MILLION. Gone.
Not on a hospital. Not on patients. Not on doctors.
On plans the SNP ended up scrapping.
The only thing the SNP delivers on time is wasting taxpayers' money.
I hate to say this but please hear me out. For decades, I have made a daily Herculean effort to warn people about the dangers facing the West. My goal was to ensure that any auto-corrective process meant to address the problems would be a peaceful one. I fear that this window has closed. Prepare for astounding violence. It may not come tomorrow, next week, next month, or next year. But it is coming. Save this post.

Ben Stokes: One of the greatest ever England captains - no. The best all rounder we’ve ever produced - arguably. Flawed genius - perhaps. But Bazball was eventually sacrificed on the altar of his retirement in one of the most bizarre afternoons of Test Cricket I’ve ever seen.
NEW Peter Murrell-Nicola Sturgeon scandal twist👇
After getting secret written info about the case, John Swinney had a phone call with the Lord Advocate on the same day that Murrell was indicted.
But every word about what they discussed has been ⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️ redacted.
Idaho, Montana & Wyoming in America all face heavy snowfall this weekend. Why doesn’t BBC report this intense winter storm in June? Can’t they explain how it fits the global warming story?
The ‘rot’ is easily explained. A party full of folk earning salaries and perks which their limited abilities couldn’t dream of in any other environment. They’ll acquiesce in any lie and suffer any indignity to maintain that. They also know that as long as they can convince just enough folk that everything is the fault of the UK or the English, their seats on the Holyrood gravy train are secure in perpetuity.
