Meanwhile in SNP controlled Scotland, unemployment has dropped to 3.7% despite the Labour tax on jobs.

Trump's White House & fawning hacks here don't really care about the 0.001% that the BBC gets wrong. They care about all the stuff it gets right.

How can Trump sue the BBC for $1B damage to his reputation?
He's a convicted felon, proven misogynist and bully. He's tasteless, stupid and ignorant. His "reputation" couldn't manage a 5¢ hit.
Not saying the BBC were right but a $billion?

If you think Trump can’t misuse the nuclear codes because "people would stop him" well those same people just watched him bulldoze a wing of the White House.

Even with limited powers, we’ve made real progress in Scotland - the only part of the UK where child poverty is falling.
But Westminster’s failed Thatcherite policies are leaving too many Scots struggling.
Let’s build a fairer society with independence.

Independence is normal.
And if independent countries like Ireland, Denmark and Finland can be wealthier and fairer than the UK, so can Scotland.

I'm afraid I also disagree with this but from a different angle. I have yet to see a UK government IT project of any significant scale be delivered on time or within budget. All too often there are massive, and I mean truly eye watering, overspends.

In their response to the 2.75m people who have already signed the petition "Do not introduce Digital ID cards" the government has said:
'For clarity, it will not be a criminal offence to not hold a digital ID and police will not be able to demand to see a digital ID as part of a “stop and search.”'

11 years ago, Scotland was inspired to think big. To imagine a better future, in our own hands.
Today, the case for independence is stronger than ever.
Independence is the fresh start Scotland needs - with lower bills, a fairer society, and our rightful place in Europe.

Labour has today formed a coalition with the Tories in Angus to topple the SNP. STV & BBC Scotland need to highlight Sarwar's broken promise. No censorship please!

Scotland’s democracy is at its best when our communities come together.
The values our Parliament was built upon - wisdom, compassion, justice and integrity - are under threat, but they are worth fighting for and that’s exactly what I’ll do. 🏴

Labour are planning to nationalise British Steel - to save the Scunthorpe plant from closing down.
Why didn't Labour do the same when Scotland's last oil refinery announced it was closing down?
Scottish jobs are an afterthought for Labour.
