@Davo_Mack This can all be resolved through planning. If the @scotgov wanted to protect Scots they have the means, all explained https://t.co/PGmOdSJSIq

It's also crazy that the Government doesnโt trust under 18s with access to the Internet, but is completely fine with thyme having life altering drugs and surgeries from 11 years old!

Good. She would do well to start by telling the Scottish government that they should stop wasting taxpayers money on legal cases which are unwinnable. The @ForWomenScot victory today is pretty comprehensive. Itโs way past time to accept the Supreme Courtโs ruling and move on.

Calling people racist is a ploy to silence them and others, and exclude them and their concerns from public debate. As I argue for @TheScotReformer https://t.co/Z0Pd4YLXHE
Intriguingly, word reaches Wings that Stephen Flynn is not currently at the World Cup because the US Government revoked his ESTA shortly before he travelled, for reasons currently unknown. The SNP are trying to keep it quiet.
Gethins and Slater are leading examples of what is wrong in Scottish politics today. Shanks and especially McDade had integrity and at least restored some faith in politicians
On this weekโs Any Questions, @AlexForsythBBC is joined at Crail Parish Church in Fife by Stephen Gethins MSP, Helen McDade MSP, Michael Shanks MP and Lorna Slater MSP.
Listen 8pm Friday / 1.10pm Saturday on @BBCRadio4 or on demand on @BBCSounds. #BBCAQ
Easy to understand why the Scottish Greens wouldnโt want any inquiry into political parties given the appalling way they have treated many feminist & LGB members & Andy Wightman not to mention the murky goings on in their selection processes. Nothing to see here folks.
A former SNP Treasurer wants the party accounts audited for the last 10 years.
John Swinney should agree immediately.
Unless, of course, he's worried about what might be uncovered...
Is Sturgeon in hiding? Keeping her head down, and waiting for the scandal to become yesterday's chip paper? Especially after last week's disastrous PR?
Sturgeon's guilt is highlighted by a close reading of Carol Ann Duffy's poem Mrs Midas. Ironic for a feminist and literature-lover. By me for @TheScotReformer

My latest for @TheScotReformer on the Murrell scandal with thanks to Carol Ann Duffy for her poem Mrs Midas which helps illuminate Nicola Sturgeon's situation

@Docstockk finally slays the myth that there is anything feminist about Nicola Sturgeon despite her many cries of misogyny. It's just self-serving political rhetoric https://t.co/NOua5Y5jyD
