⁦⁦@BBCPolitics⁩ forcing ⁦@GaryLineker⁩ to step back from presenting. As a result I think it only appropriate that I stop paying my TV license and step away from watching the BBC. https://t.co/9mV3hhAQhV

Spending decisions will have to be tough, says Forbes. Well how about we stop wasting money eg free prescriptions & bus passes which only there for SNP political gain? Instead focus on building an aspirant society & laying foundations for economic growth.. https://t.co/CDhKgojnut

@NicolaSturgeon @scotgov @NHSScotland have tried repeatedly online to book our COVID vaccinations via both NHS and NHS Scotland websites. Our Scottish 8-digit NHS and 10 digit CHI numbers are apparently invalid. The COVID helpline nor our GP are able to help. Can you?

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@scotgov @NicolaSturgeon Your communications today add no clarity but instead demonstrates your failing leadership and serves only to create confusion and further prolongation of your one dimensional handling of this crisis. We must do better.

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

Can someone pls explain why every time I pass Edinburgh’s vaccine centre there’s literally nobody going in or coming out? Photo taken today at 1230. Surely we must do better and increase the throughput? #scotgov #NicolaSturgeon #VaccineRollout

@ScotGovFM @scotgov @BBCScotlandNews can someone pls explain why every coffee shop and most supermarkets have queues lined up outside them yet every time I pass a vaccine centre there’s literally nobody going in or coming out? Photo taken today at 1230. We must do better!?

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@BBCScotlandNews @NicolaSturgeon pls follow the lead of your English counterparts and focus on increasing vaccine and lateral flow testing to shorten this hell of reliving the same day over and over again

@jamiegreeneUK We are tracking nearly 50% behind England in vaccine rollout. @NicolaSturgeon keeps quoting that we are 98% through vaccinating older care home residents. What a meaningless measurement that is. Who are we trying to kid ...

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@NicolaSturgeon perhaps best to focus on recovering the vaccination programme and catching up with our neighbours in England rather than planning independence ?

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@NicolaSturgeon Like many fellow Scots I voted against Brexit. Fact is though the UK as a whole voted for it. Voting against the deal now is obvious politicking on your part, the most cynical and self serving politics given you need Brexit to fail to support your independence case.

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@NicolaSturgeon @theSNP like most of Scotland, I voted against Brexit. But the ship sailed more than 4 years ago. To vote against the deal now is not in Scotland’s interests - it’s in SNP’s self serving interests. I hope the population at large recognises that.

@GeoffLynton That life time of heavy lifting’s not done you any favours Geoff - thought you were much older ....

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@JustMasarAga Now that would be actual news ! But alas no lasagne in UK just waffle from boris 🧇

[Gavin Neilson @NeilsonGavin]

@GeoffLynton @RealBobMortimer Great to see you back Geoff after a strong period of heavy lifting

@EdinburghAirpo1 still waiting on our bags off of BA1438, arrived 1015. Airport is empty apart from this flight. Why the incompetence?
