@Kirsty_Mo@Miggins63370401@MDMorrison82 Also, if a Scottish person mentioned Braveheart before the film came out, it would be much more likely to be in connection to Robert the Bruce
All at Partick Thistle were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of lifelong Jags fan William McCluskey at the age of 89.
Our thoughts and condolences are with William's family and friends.
Rest in peace William. Once a Jag, always a Jag.
I just want to share something Tourette Scotland posted on their Facebook today and say a heartfelt thank you.
In the past week alone they have received over £5,000 in donations. More than 200 people from over 100 different locations across the UK have contributed, alongside so many powerful messages of support for John. There have also been international donations from Germany, Croatia, Australia, the USA, Jersey and The Netherlands.
The map they shared showing support coming in from right across the UK is incredibly moving. It means more than I can put into words, not just to our family personally, but to families all across Scotland living with Tourette’s.
Thank you to every single person who has donated, shared, spoken up or reached out. It truly matters.
If anyone would like to support the work Tourette Scotland does for families like ours, you can donate here:

If anyone does have questions about Tourettes and what it is like to love with it please just ask, or if you join one of my Twitch streams I am happy to talk about it. I am much better with spoken words than text (thanks dyslexia). I usually don't talk about my tics on my streams and keep it to drumming but right now education is more important.
This post, like the retweet of the clip has blown up. I don't want any self promotion from this, just education, so if I can help answer peoples queries please just ask. Better understanding promotes others sharing the correct knowledge and everyone together makes the world a better place for people with Tourettes.
@Mrgregles@Heavy_Boab I honestly believe the difference in reaction between the UK and America is fully down to how much we in the UK have been educated by John and yourself. Also want to mention your parents in that sentiment if that's ok, thanks to you all.
@arthurwatkins He doesn't have control of the tics, so you'd have to address your question to the tics. Which is just silly. Like ignoring all the evidence presented of that since Sunday.
I think if anyone wants to understand John cant help it its the fact that he encourages his own dug - who he adores & loves dearly - to walk out in front of oncoming traffic when stood at lights (it understands & wont)
Says it all when a dug can understand it but so many cant..
My wee da turned 89 last week. He's taught us about Scottish history and instilled pride in our nationality all our lives. He's no been keeping well recently. But it was great to hear him talking about that game last night. What a boost it's given him. Thanks @ScotlandNT 💙
@HolyroodDaily@jackiebmsp@DiageoGB The fact that she can be awarded the political hero of the year award yet has completely ignored nuclear waste being leaked into Scottish waters in her constituency is farcical
How come politicians never ever seem to make mistakes or take poor advice that leads to them paying far too much tax? Different rosette, same claims of mistakes that just happen to make them money 💰
"It's distressing...they're really upset."
Speaking exclusively to #ElectoralDysfunction, Deputy PM Angela Rayner tells @BethRigby how coverage of her tax row has impacted her family.

CAMPAIGN ANNOUNCEMENT - PREPARING FOR 24TH AUGUST 🏴
The campaign has so far raised almost £17K in the first three crowdfunders. Fundraising will continue until we reach the target to commission a lifesize bronze statue of Maclean that will be erected in Glasgow city centre. (1)
@LouPhinn We've used Forget Me Not Memorials a few times. Chris is a true gentleman and delivers a fabulous service. Not surprised at all by this, just the kind of guy he is
@YodelOnline can you send me the correct email address to make a complaint about your customer service. Emails to the email address you've given previously are bouncing back unsent. Service had been awful!
What we are seeing is asset stripping.
Our land and resources being scooped up by the big corporations and billionaires.
If you don’t speak up, there will be nothing left for future generations. This is our land… our Scotland… we need to fight to protect it. #scotland
@backinyerpram@plyons45@Anneedee21@SaveLoch If they want to invest in the local area, why not buy up one of the practically empty business parks locally & build their attraction on that. Add to what's already there, instead of privatising a world famous beauty spot?
@backinyerpram@plyons45@Anneedee21@SaveLoch The area doesn't need more seasonal zero hour contracts, it needs proper investment and secure employment. If they intended to employ locals, why would they need to build an employee accommodation block? 1/2
