@BBCPolitics Born to an English mother, studied in England, worked in England, a member of the English and Welsh bar… not supporting England is actually just very *weird*.

@AndyEMorrison Do you think it’s impaired government or just made tv schedules less interesting?

@heraldscotland True Holyrood bubble story. Press freedom isn’t under attack because journalists have to stand behind a piece of rope. They’re not allowed the stand on the doorstep of Downing Street and nobody sensible screams about it.

@pili_scotland This seems somewhat unlikely at this point. Everyone knew that their leading couple had embezzled cash and the party had defrauded its members and yet they still won. A few sheds only locals care about won’t stop them.

@AngGallacher @LustraSkye If only it were accurate lol

[Unionist Ideas @IdeasForUnion]

@LustraSkye Communities have all the usual planning rights. Indeed in Edinburgh a DC has been stopped!

[Unionist Ideas @IdeasForUnion]

@LustraSkye This isn’t true. The AIGZ doesn’t come with reduced oversight, tax incentives, or a simplified planning pathway. Scottish planning law remains entirely unchanged.

The pipeline also doesn’t cluster near these zones.

@KathrynPorter26 How in gods own name are you able to understand the energy system if you thought this was real?

💥Sneaky Pete’s cash for a seat. The SNP has been a party of government for 20 years and was being run by a serial fraudster. His wife was FM for 9 years. To what extent did his criminality impact politics and democracy?

SNP - corrupt to the core

@MccailColl What’s actually wrong with this?

NEW: Sky News came to Ireland in an attempt to question Nicola Sturgeon about claims she shut down scrutiny of SNP finances at the same time her ex-husband Peter Murrell stole £400k from party.

She entered the kitchen to avoid questions with security pushing me away.

@ginadavidsonlbc It’s insane that they selected him. Total low calibre idiot and even worse than the total low calibre idiots leading the other parties which is saying something.

@edwest When I was on the ward with my wife after the birth of our child - fairly recently - we were kept awake by international phone calls to Africa and woken up by Islamic charts. Didn’t want to cause a fuss ourselves but the midwives should have told them to stop it.

@YNWA2008 @ChrisMusson This is devolved. Both governments are wasting cash on similar things.
