Sad news that #Lotus is laying off staff. I worked on the JPS Roadshow in 1984 where we girls ran around the country in JPS branded clothes with a Lotus Esprit and Renault Fuego Turbo and Nigel Mansells F1 racing car 😎

🚨LUCY CONNOLLY ATTACKED BY PRISON STAFF

Lucy was told to move to a different wing, into a dirty cell covered in faeces where a former prisoner had died.

When she asked why she was beaten then refused food

SHE IS NOW COVERED IN BRUISES

She has also been warned not to speak about anything then she is released

There are not other words for this.
Lucy is being tortured by the British State

'After stealth bombers unleashed their payload, France, Germany & Britain released a joint statement urging Iran “back to the negotiating table”. Israel then obliterated said table. No, you are not going mad.'

The opening weekend of Celtic Connections

The Grit Orchestra, a celebration of the genius of Martyn Bennett

[Lesley Riddoch @LesleyRiddoch]

Standing ovation in packed @ccfest Concert Hall for @GritOrchestra formed 10 years ago to perform genre-mixing massive music of Martyn Bennett. 89 musicians pay tribute to the musician who died 20 yrs ago. A beautiful collaboration that deserves MUCH better funding. @cuillinmusic

[🙂 SnipperSnapper @gmchair]

Yes.. I’d have the Grit Orchestra any day of the week compared to BBC repeats

[Lesley Riddoch @LesleyRiddoch]

Can Hogmanay be saved from weary commercialism? Is the Grit Orchestra better than BBC’s New Year fare? Will any party light a bonfire of Scottish quangos? Is the SNP radical enough to get Indy over the line? These are the headlines. Listen to the podcast https://t.co/pqT4PMbnVr

[Lesley Riddoch @LesleyRiddoch]

Brave New Music is new Martyn Bennett biog - piper composer & producer who died 20 yrs ago after releasing album Grit. Friends like BJ Stewart & Greg Lawson have worked tirelessly to keep his life & work alive with @GritOrchestra & now this beautiful book. https://t.co/kIjuwL0tdh
