One very happy Scotland supporter over here. Incredible result, and topping this tough group. 3 spectacular goals tonight. I’ve waited almost 3 decades for us to qualify for the World Cup.

Scotland snatching defeat from the jaws of victory as usual. Really hope Clark goes soon. Any pressure games, he sets the team up in a way that they have no confidence and play awful.

Has there ever been a more poignant end to a TV show? Incredible writing.

Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.

The Saudi regime has executed Abdullah al-Derazi, under 18 at the time of his alleged crimes, linked to him attending demonstrations against the regime.
In August, the Saudis had executed Jabal Labbad, also arrested as a minor, in his case for attending demonstrations and funerals.

Do Labour think this is a winning strategy with the Scottish elections coming up next year? Just bizarre, I think it alienates voters. It certainly does go for me.

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week
He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared
They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him
Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility
They kidnapped a disabled child!

It’s not really surprising to me. When Westminster politicians talk down to us and only think of us as an afterthought I expect disillusionment with the British identity. It will be interesting to see what further analysis shows are the trends away from being British.
Analysis in @thetimes.com by @leaskyd.bsky.social & Anna Dowell of the sharp decline in British identity uncovered by the Scottish Social Attitudes survey.
With comment from Sir John Curtice on the polarising of Scottish politics and from myself on the decoupling of Scottish and British identities:

One of the projects I’m currently working on is to attempt to move the dial on Alzheimers disease. Given the impact its had on my extended family and mum’s diagnosis when she was around my age, it feels therapeutic to be trying to do something about it.

Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times
