If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £136,000,000 she owes give this a RT.

We didn't have parties to "boost morale"
We didn't have quiz nights
We didn't have champagne
We watched our colleagues die though
We were STEEPED in death
We kept going
We had to
We kept on
So don't you DARE say your parties were "necessary" @borisjohnson
You make me sick.

@liseymacd @LiamMcIlvanney Or ‘Ah mn aw’ which means, ‘I am doing as you asked, teacher, obviously!’

[theprimeofmrsw @ganepati]

@LiamMcIlvanney Do they have jamp or jamped as past tense of jump?

Every time I visit my kids in England I always take a good pocket of Scottish Thistle Seeds to throw into ex neighbours' gardens and crazy paving. A wee payback for not liking us Scots.

Well, this is one of the videos making its way through social media this week, bringing Christmas joy. So let's have a brief THREAD on its details. My thanks go to all of you who tagged me to make sure I didn't miss it.

#Scotland must be the first country in history to have economic sanctions imposed on it by its so-called union ally

[Adam Boxer @adamboxer1]

It's *insanely* difficult in this country to be an effective parent and worker unless you

Are in a relationship
Have parents who can help
Have friends who can help
Are comparatively wealthy
Are always healthy
Are living within a ten minute walk of your kid's school

Our teachers want to be in the classroom, but have been forced into this #EISStrike by the inaction of the Scottish Government and COSLA who have refused to make any improvement to a pay offer that was roundly rejected by teachers three months ago. #PayAttention

[EIS @EISUnion]

The offer to Scotland's teachers is not 6.85% - that's just @scotgov spin.

The average value of the 'new' offer to teachers is 5.07%.

Basically, it's a reheated version of the same 5% offer our members overwhelming rejected in a ballot 3 months ago.

The craziest explanation for why teachers shouldn’t wear jeans is so we “stand out from the students”

Friend, I am running around that room like a circus conductor. They all know exactly who I am.
