Important interview: HTS leader Jolani says he has no intention to turn Syria into Afghanistan since these are two different societies with separate culture and history. Strong support for the ethnic and religious diversity.

@triviapotus @TrumanLibInst At that time Truman disliked (hated) JFK. That’s the truth.
The question is why?

@duchessofnaija If you read anything about him you’ll understand that he is utterly different as a private person than any character he plays.

I have written in today’s @Glasgow_Times about assisted dying. It is an issue I feel very conflicted about - but the more deeply I consider it, the more I find myself veering against. I summarise my reasons here. However, I would very much welcome views from constituents ahead of a vote in @ScotParl
