i recall reading that when the princess diaries premiered the audience erupted in applause when julie andrews first appeared as queen clarisse bc they were so happy to see her back on the silver screen after years and i get them, look at her
In May 2026, during a televised interview, Anas Sarwar clearly stated his opposition to accepting a position within the House of Lords.
However, in July 2026, Anas Sarwar accepted a peerage, thereby taking a seat in the House of Lords.
You simply can't trust a word he says.
When Jackie Baillie and Glenn Campbell *both* want to move on from the Sarwar peerage row it tells you all you want to know about BBC Scotland and its political editor.
Campbell has steadfastly refused to acknowledge the anger within Scottish Labour at Sarwar jumping ship. The reporter he's assigned to the story, David Lockhart, has shown a similar reluctance. This is not normal.
One of the areas reporters look at when rows and scandals emerge is the reaction within the party at the centre of the row. Are there signs of dissent? Is there evidence of anger? If the answer is yes they *always* obtain comment from 'a source'. This isn't happening with the Sarwar peerage row. BBC Scotland's political editor is suppressing this part of the story.
Not only will Anas Sarwar be handed a ministerial role by Andy Burnham without even standing as an MP, he was rejected by voters in the election he *did* stand in. A distant second in Glasgow Cathcart & Pollok in May.
Sarwar's promotion is a big f*ck you to Scottish voters.
Douglas Lumsden cost the taxpayer around £185,000 with 1339 AI-generated questions about salt sachets and flagpoles
But at wasteful Westminster, it's estimated it costs £237 to answer a question. So Douglas's AI-antics would have cost the taxpayer £326,349 if he'd been an MP
@GlobalBoxOffice You seem a little excited about this?! If this film doesn’t do well financially it’s a damn shame as it’s brilliant. We should be sad that such a great, fun filled blockbuster isn’t hitting with audiences 🤷♂️
Dear @Keir_Starmer
The Scottish Parliament has passed a mandate to ask Westminster to devolve the powers required to hold a Scottish independence referendum.
We the people of Scotland wish democracy to be upheld with the immediate powers transfered.

@StagecoachEScot it’s time to revise the Kelty-Dalgety Bay timetables as the roadworks at Queen Margaret don’t appear to be going anywhere and 15:54 7C is over half an hour late now. Roadworks can’t be helped but revising journey times might help customers greatly. Thanks.
