@Clan_MacDougall I inherited my grandfather's kilt, sporran etc (he was a McDowall) and I am trying to find a good home for the whole outfit. I can't see a uk clan website to contact. Can you advise?
The PM is judging #PMQs all wrong. Why keep repeating that his Government is doing all it can on sanctioning Russian oligarchs when it clearly isn’t? Why delay the introduction of aspects of the Economic Crimes Bill for 18 months? Ministers must go much further & much faster 🇺🇦
Why is it those UK government sanctions on Russian oligarchs are so badly targeted?
12 individuals have been sanctioned who are based abroad, but no sanctions have been issued against oligarchs with significant UK assets.
Are the @Conservatives protecting party donors?
Today the independent regulator said MPs will get a £2200 pay rise.
I believe this is wrong: Ordinary people are facing a Tory cost-of-living crisis. They should get a proper pay rise, not well-paid MPs.
That's why I will donate mine to Coventry Foodbank and other local causes.
“I think he [#Abramovich] is terrified of being sanctioned, which is why he’s already going to sell his home tomorrow, and sell another flat as well. My anxiety is that we’re taking too long about these things.”Labour MP @RhonddaBryant has revealed in the Commons.
Good morning, this is Kyiv calling.
Last night Russia tried to assassinate Zelenskiy, their plot was foiled, their hit squad was eliminated.
The city’s defences have still not been breached.
Air raid sirens fill the sky.
But we are still here.
And we will remain here.

You know what makes me really angry? The fact that the government is launching a renewed attack on benefit claimants a week after simply writing off £4.3 billion of ACTUAL FRAUD! The simple fact is, we are easy targets and it plays well with the press. This has to end.
This has all the makings of an establishment stitch-up:
The Met Police – whose embattled commissioner has been repeatedly saved by Boris Johnson – intervenes to gut Sue Gray's report, taking the heat off the Prime Minister and maybe even saving his skin.
It absolutely stinks.
I want to see the Gray report in full.
Our country faces huge challenges and it’s offensive that the Government’s sole focus is on cleaning up after themselves.
Britain deserves better. The Prime Minister is unfit for office and must resign.
Will you sign the petition and demand that United Utilities drop its plan to avoid accountability for dumping sewage in our rivers? ⬇️

I've put a motion down in Parliament calling for the National Insurance hike to be scrapped - and replaced with a Wealth Tax on the richest 1%.
There is an alternative to this reactionary Tory tax on working people!
BREAKING: We're intervening in a case to stop a water company being given almost total immunity from private legal action for discharging untreated sewage into waterways 💩🚫

I witnessed a pack of hounds in pursuit of a hare earlier today. Reported it to the police. Was asked if the people with the pack were travellers. When I replied that they appeared to be from the local hunt, I was firmly told that “Hunts don’t do that.”
And there you have it.
