So Rachel Reeves' big infrastructure investment to boost the Scottish economy is...
...drum roll...
...a third runway at London Heathrow Airport.
Nothing for Wales or Northern Ireland either.
They're not even bothering to hide their Anglo-centric contempt for the rest of the UK.

The Scottish Parliament has just unanimously called on the UK government to compensate WASPI women, which the UK Labour government refused to do.
The SNP has stood with the WASPI women for years, and we will stand with them until justice is delivered.

Very welcome news that unemployment in Scotland has fallen to 3.8% and is lower than the rest of the UK.
Scotland’s economy has grown faster than the rest of the UK, but we need to do more to deliver growth and progress - I will be setting out views in a speech tomorrow.

We were in @broadcastscot.bsky.social studio yesterday. Getting some advice for a filming project we’ve taken on. As ever a very generous response from Linda. She has created an excellent setup. She needs people to make the best use of it.
Meanwhile, small independent broadcasters with immense potential, are left scrambling for support from individuals.
Check out @broadcastscot.bsky.social.
With high standard facilities and studios already in place, they rely on views, shares, and a wee donation or subscription if you can.

The BBC is accused of 'breathtaking arrogance' and labelling London-based firms' shows as 'Scottish.

Eradicating child poverty is an investment in our people, not a cost to be borne.
SNP policies like the Scottish Child Payment are already keeping an estimated 100,000 children out of poverty.
Our Budget will do more by acting to lift the two-child limit.

The proper (and official) name for Greenland is Kalaallit Nunaat, it's the only territory in North America where an indigenous language is the sole official language. Its population is 90% Inuit. I'm sure they are feeling terribly reassured by how the USA has treated its indigenous inhabitants.
