Pretty much retired. Hugely enjoying life on the farm and being Grandad. Interested in NHS, green issues, philanthropy and Scotland's future.

Quite clear to me that @RosieisaHolt has some dark money pumping out her digital operations. Questions for her

1. Is the Money Russian?
2. Is Dominic Cummings organising the Big Data?
3. Did Liz Truss or Nadine Dorries ghost write her book?

We need answers

Labour now saying out loud they’ll ignore Scottish’s election result, just like the Tories did. 👎
This is a democratically unsustainable position & won’t hold.
However, it does remind people of the need to control our own future & rid ourselves of Westminster’s arrogance. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@CitadelYCLeith @WillyBarr1 Excellent news! Well done @WillyBarr1

@rawlimark In 1983 my brother and I ran the London marathon in about 3 and a half hours. In the home stretch we were overtaken by a platoon of Gurkhas in full kit. Jogging in step.

Things the BBC News website hasn't reported...

1. The UK's largest tomato producer (650m/year) said part of the supply issue is definitely down to Brexit.

2. The UK's largest turnip grower has given up on growing turnips. Can't get the staff, because of Brexit.

@66blackman @writementor Great news Steve! Meal do naidheachd!

as we begin summer in a few days, I'm sure there'll be lots of stories celebrating (some) people's favorite season. To help editors out, here are some photos you can use to illustrate these articles.

So when you call for less climate ambition and more patience when we only have 8 years left, (2030) please tell us, at the same time, why you think another half a degree doesn’t matter. #auspol #EvidenceBasedPolicy

My consituent, believed tortured, has been held in arbitrary detention in India for 4+ years, and now faces the death penalty.

Why does @BorisJohnson prioritise trade deals over the life of a young Scottish Sikh from Dumbarton?

Something toxic and dangerous has happened in politics in recent years: people who have been made sicker and poorer since 2010 have voted for the party responsible.

@HumzaYousaf Hiya. NNB. Please take aspirin or some other blood thinner. Snapped mine playing cricket 7 years ago. Clot formed under the plaster. No symptoms. Massive pulmonary embolism. Ambulance in 4 minutes and fab work by NHS in D&G saved me. Hopefully the protocol has changed. Get advice

BREAKING: UK Govt considers making smoke alarms 'less sensitive'. "As fires become more prevalent, it's going to be annoying having these noisy devices going off all the time," says spokesperson.

I’m a chef at a busy restaurant and as of 19th July I’m ordering the kitchen to cease most hygiene precautions.

Screw it.

Fed up of being told what to do by the nanny state.

No hand washing, no food washing, surfaces will get cleaned once a day.
