It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Today’s figures show real progress in our schools:

✅ Record literacy and numeracy
✅ Higher attendance
✅ More teachers, with smaller class sizes

Huge credit to pupils and staff. We will keep driving improvement for every young person in Scotland.

Ignore the media framing, I think this is a glimmer of good news.

Why isn't non-dom status reclassified as a benefit? Then we could start cracking down on the real big league benefit scroungers.

New Home Office impact assessment finds that cutting skilled and social care visas will cost the UK up to £10 billion with a central estimate of -£5.4 billion.

It would be good if this got even a fraction of the coverage devoted to the endless debate about boats, flags and Turkish barber shops

"Tribunal rules that employers do not have to exclude trans people"

Not that you'd know it from the media coverage, which is almost entirely "Partial victory as Peggie wins on some procedural matters"
Sandie Peggie: Tribunal rules that employers do not have to exclude trans people | Good Law Project
One of the first cases that follows the Supreme Court’s decision on the definition of sex under the Equality Act has found that the court didn’t decide which changing room a trans person should use.

My top 5 beaches visited in 2025.
No. 2: Glencallum Bay, Isle of Bute.
Not the most attractive beach at first sight but the setting, the walk to get here and the well-placed lighthouse make this one extra special 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The media, both print and TV are powerful tools in the fight to keep Scotland in this union which is why Scotland is NOT ALLOWED to have it's own broadcasting, bias is rampant and unchallenged so the masses are fed a diet of skewed news stories to keep them compliant to the status quo.

We must #ChangeTheNarrative!

Dr Beth Upton was fully acquitted of all wrongdoing in yesterday’s Employment Tribunal decision. Yet she has been vilified by a toxic & poisonous media for months.
It must stop!

Congratulations, and solidarity, to you, Beth!

And let us not forget that Peggie, was found to have harassed Dr. Beth Upton.
A fact which the "DAILY REDCOAT" seems to have omitted.

A new record - on 5 December wind power produced enough electricity for 3/4 of UK homes

At 23.8GW it meant that even during winter peak demand, it was still providing nearly half the country's power needs

Still a way to go though....

As we watch too many punch down on others due to their race, creed, gender or politics, I thought it’s a good day to post a favourite quote.

If you live in Scotland, it's 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗡𝗣 that's leading the fight against Reform.

It doesn't benefit from big millionaire donations like the English parties, and depends primarily on small donations... please consider supporting their fight.

If this is true, why do even remainer politicians persist in saying that the public won’t accept Freedom of Movement?
