Tony Blair might not like my plan, but he's wrong: it's changing Britain for the better.

It had to happen ..'honest' John trips himself up. The new DepFM almost in tears. Not a great master class in how to handle the press. Truth will out.

£400k stolen by Murrell.
£600k SNP cash missing.
£500k spent by Swinney on a case against Salmond he knew he couldn’t win.
Most Scots can’t afford to go to the World Cup.
Who is paying for this trip?
The First Minister isn’t supporting Scotland he is taking the piss out of us.

Reform formerly the Brexit Party/ UKIP dog whistle the idea that immigration is the problem.
Scapegoating minorities absolves you of any responsibility & negates addesssing the real issues we face here e.g. child poverty, lack of housing/investment
Get a grip, we see you

Congratulations Nurul Hoque Ali on becoming the Scottish Labour candidate for Aberdeen South!

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

Reform UK were rejected by more than 70% of voters yesterday, and the media is treating the result as terminal for Labour while almost entirely ignoring the fact that most people said no to the hatred, the division and the bigotry. That is the actual story.

[Neil Findlay @Neilsocialist]

The SNP vote fell by 9.5% (constituency) and 12.25% (region) - they benefitted from the Greens not standing in many constituencies and Reform taking a chunk of the anti SNP constituency vote - this leaves votes spread so no party has enough to defeat the SNP candidate

In D&G Council we recognise this and we have declared a Health & Social Care emergency in the region. We are still waiting for a date for a constructive meeting with the Cab Sec for Health & Social Care.

[Jackie Baillie @jackiebmsp]

Neil wanted to go home but there were no social care packages available.

The new Scottish Government must tackle the social care crisis immediately.

But no one, as yet, willing to take responsibility ...... a depressingly familiar refrain.
