So if I have this right:

A lawyer who is a long standing supporter of the SNP is also the lawyer for a group of bereaved Covid victims as they take action against the Scottish Government led by Nicola Sturgeon/SNP but is also Nicola Sturgeon’s lawyer

??????????

Nicola Sturgeon has released a further statement through her solicitor, Aamer Anwar.

"In respect of any items I was aware of Peter having purchased, I had no reason to doubt that he had used his own money"

‘PENALTY FOR GLASGOW’

Shocked I tell you. Shocked.

@DouglasBeattie4 It’s clearly physical aggression. Reasons: using physical means to gain entrance to an area you’ve not paid into. Sets tone for rest of day. Genuinely surprised you don’t see that.

Today I visited Café Recharge in Galashiels.

They are very focused on managing food waste whilst providing a social café tackling food poverty.

These kinds of spaces are vital in many communities across South Scotland.

@AHoran79 Err…aren’t Pontiff’s elected by a majority vote….

Great to see some fantastic Scottish Labour MP’s sign the reasoned amendment to the welfare bill 👏

Good morning @RealStephenKerr - can you confirm you have raised these concerns with Douglas Ross who recently chaired a Scottish Parliament Committee from….checks notes….the Caribbean?

[Stephen Kerr MSP @RealStephenKerr]

Working from home isn't working. The public sector has slowed right down with oversight removed.

And now we see this absurd entitlement when asked to do what hundreds of thousands never stopped doing: turning up for work.

Me in the Sun:

@CatrionaStewart Top class answer. Glad our PM focusing on jobs and security rather than this stuff. Wes Streeting made UK government position clear. SL leader now regrets voting for the law - that’s fair to criticise but I expect our PM to focus on the big stuff.

Mick Lynch is a working class hero

He deserves a long and happy retirement

Thank you, comrade ✊

@LiamMcLaughlan Stuart Hogg should be jailed. But were Stan Collymore, Jordan Young, Paul Gascoigne or David Goodwillie? Anthony Stokes was I suppose- but he had a fairly lengthy criminal record prior to his DA conviction. So I don’t think your comparison stands to test.

[Borders Labour @labour_borders]

Very telling you list ‘men’ before women here…..

Full respect to @GillianMacMSP for outlawing this psychological bullying shamefully labelled as prayer.

[SPUC Pro-Life @spucprolife]

On 24 September, pro-life men and women gathered outside the Scottish Parliament in Holyrood to demonstrate against @GillianMacMSP's Abortion Services (Safe Access Zones) (Scotland) Bill.

An excited boy who is so buzzing he may not sleep and just can’t wait to fly out to Bruges tomorrow ahead of Killie’s Europa League qualifier.

Also pictured, his seven year old son who is trying to get Dad to calm down.

@BarrieCunning @Miles4Lothian So ask workers to cross a picket line 🧐

[Dr Barry Black @BarryBlackNE]

Interesting (and concerning) analysis of PISA results from Prof Lindsay Paterson.

Looking at the *highest* attaining pupils from the *most disadvantaged* backgrounds in Scotland, he finds that their attainment has continued to decline. In England, it has improved.

'So Scotland is not serving very well those [socio-economic] low-status students who have relatively high attainment', it concludes. This poses the question: why?

Perhaps you should challenge them to a game against an SNP MP XI - ah….i forgot….you can’t field a team anymore…..

[Stephen Flynn @StephenFlynnSNP]

Rodri. Bro. All is forgiven.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

This time next week, do you want to wake up to change or five more years of the same?

Change will only happen if you vote for it by voting Labour.

@BordersRayLD @CaitlinStottBRS Civility :-)

[Borders Labour @labour_borders]

Would be delighted to see Blair as an MP. He’s done so much for the country - and at great personal cost during referendum in terms of abuse and attacks. A clever, thoughtful, hard working guy.
