Imagine writing a memoir - i.e. a book about your self - and then going on a round of self promoting book tours where you accuse people of being obsessed by you 🤷♀️
A member of the @DundeeFC teams which won the league for the first and only time in 61/62 season along with the great Alan Gilzean. Ian moved from Dens to Highbury, Gillie went to White Hart Lane.
Has it occurred to anyone that a real beneficiary of ousting Starmer is Putin.
Keir was integral to the European support of Ukraine. Who, how many in labour are funded/working for Putin agents?
Reference Ms Abbotts comments last month.
It's a thought?
Nicola Sturgeon wanted to go down in history as the woman who delivered independence.
Instead she’ll be remembered for ferries, an untouched attainment gap, deleted messages, division and leaving the SNP to pick through the wreckage.
That's her legacy.
A welcome and necessary intervention from Sadiq.
We cannot ignore the climate crisis, which will impact and threaten the livelihood of all workers.
Trade union leaders and the wider labour movement should be making this case loud and clear.
This is ‘trans’ I'm afraid - today's Greens
A party of cranks, weirdos, and bigots - as well as potty-mouthed wankers who can’t keep a civil tongue in their heads!
What a way for an elected politician to speak - sadly Iris Duane (a bloke from Bradford) is a now a Glasgow MSP
The statement on rape being a spectrum from the Green MSP is downright dangerous. Lawmakers equivocating on rape and dressing it up in pseudo-academic language is insidious.
A 🧵on a clip circulating on social media 👇🏻
I am alarmed by the views expressed by a Scottish Greens MSP that is circulating on social media where they say that rape is a “spectrum”.
I am absolutely clear that there is no spectrum of rape and know that there is certainly (1/4)
Does Andy Burnham not know that we are in the middle of a dangerous drought?
That there will be food and water shortages?
That there is unrest in North Norfolk?
Oh, he's on holiday!
I miss the steady hand of Keir Starmer on the controls.
Why Scottish Labour's leadership contest has come too early. So the talk in Scottish Labour circles is of renewal. But, to do so, they need authentic analysis. They need to confront the true state of affairs, not a comforting pseudo-narrative. https://t.co/XQEZ2S1q0k
"If the council plans to ignore the law, what does it mean for the open-plan female changing rooms where women and girls undress and shower?
"What about the Tuesday evening women-only sessions, when the pool’s outer door is covered to respect the modesty of Muslims who wear burkinis even among their own sex? This is the only time they get to swim. McAsh and Chamberlain give no reassurances and offer no grave words about their privacy and dignity."

Burnham goes all Brexity. He can’t pursue this protectionist policy AND aim to rejoin the EU. More important, he can’t count. He’s laid out two tests, not one. Goodness knows how he’ll get his head round our £3 trillion national debt.
In the first clip Manivannan swallows his words and “spectre” could be mistaken for “spectrum” but in the follow up one, he is very clear. He *is* arguing that there is a “spectrum” of rape and that there are “modes” of consent. Any thoughts @Gillian_Mackay1?
You'd have to have a heart of stone not to laugh. The 'contenders' for the worst job in Scottish politics are struggling to get people to nominate them. Nobody wants them in their own party never mind the country.....
