Scottish communities could get £3m a year if they run wind farms instead of £56k pa from commercial companies who win the leases instead. Which should it be? C'mon Scottish Government. This could be a revolution for rural Scotland. www.thenational.scot/politics/250...

Kaye Adams is the latest BBC Scotland presenter to deliberately mislead the public by conflating the Dundee University scandal with free tuition. The Dundee University funding issue was caused by financial mismanagement. It has nothing to do with free tuition. More BBC propaganda.

I’m not saying it’s windy in Glasgow but a road sign has just landed in my back Garden.

It says. “Welcome to Donegal”

The RED weather warning we have today is very serious. There are extensive school closures, transport disruption and many dangers from the strong wind.

Police Scotland have issued ‘do not travel’ advice.

Please follow all of the advice and stay safe. #StormEowyn

There’s 358 fascists in Bannockburn.
How depressing.
While this appears to be positive news. The reality for the UK is Reform/Tory Government is a strong possibility. Not that a Labour option is particularly appealing....A vote for an independent supporting party in 2026 is even more vital.

A good result for the SNP in Bannockburn but also a nod towards the ‘nobody votes for Reform UK in Scotland’ brigade.
Farage’s far-right mob almost pipped Labour for second and took 22% of 1st preference votes in the Stirlingshire neighbourhood.
Bannockburn (Stirling) by-election transfers, votes at final head-to-head stage (vs same matchup 2022):

SNP: 664 (42.1%, +4.9)
Labour: 528 (33.5, -4.7)
