Something has shifted in the public mood regarding refugees. I've been tweeting about refugees for many years but never before received such an upswell of sympathy, and near universal condemnation of the government's callous approach. Thank U to everyone for your positive tweets!
Sheila is heartbroken to lose her most treasured possession- a gold chain holding 4 wedding rings; from her parents & her 2 marriages to Alec & John. Believe lost in central London. PLEASE RT in case anyone finds it. She is absolutely desperate for its return. Reward offered.
🥃 Interim @scotdevint MD Neil Francis (centre) addressed #ScotchWhisky & #SupplyChain companies in Edinburgh last night at a partnership event with @ScotchWhiskySWA to help drive further decarbonisation in the industry, which makes one of #Scotland’s biggest & best-loved exports
Dear @trussliz / @RishiSunak the cost of living crisis has left millions worried how they'll make ends meet.
I'd like to formally invite you, as the new PM, to join me asap once you take office for a special hour's @itvMLshow discussion/Q&A to answer/ease people's concerns.
An emergency budget could be just over a month away. As it stands #ScotchWhisky producers face a 12%+ inflationary increase to a duty rate which is already one of the highest in the world.
Let's back growth and #SupportScotch

@BrugesGroup Hello, weights and measures inspector here. They were not taken away by 'foreign bureaucrats'. It was long standing UK policy to move to SI units. The legislation to remove imperial was a UK instrument amending a UK act of Parliament. It had nothing to do with the EU.
It may not be possible to celebrate the suspension of US tariffs on #ScotchWhisky in person, but it certainly is virtually! Great result today for our industry @trussliz + @tradegovuk, and good luck with next steps towards a permanent settlement. Slainte!
Remarkable drama in Arizona.
After six hours of running, a bloodied Jim Walmsley comes just 12 seconds shy of Nao Kazami's 6:09:14 world record for 100k.
He was on pace through 95k.
Still an absolutely heroic run -- 5:56 pace for over 62 miles.
