Lovely afternoon in the Highlands. Looking towards the Five Sisters of Kintail.

What the actual fuck? The DEADLINE was yesterday. Sure Dems, come on out and tell us how they broke the law by not releasing all the documents, redacting hundreds of pages, and adding photos of Bill Clinton that had nothing to do with Epstein. Where are the US Marshalls? The DEADLINE was yesterday.

ABBA’s Bjorn Ulvaeus shares a Christmas message with #Newsnight and says that the Ukrainians “deserve all the support they can have from us.”

They are the worst of the worst. At some point, the United States will hopefully wake up to Trump’s repugnant lack of humanity. Britain better wake up as well. Farage supports this horrible character to the hilt!

I’m not even going to share what Trump has posted about the death of Rob and Michele Reiner, but it is one of the worst things I have ever seen in response to a tragedy such as this. Disgusting! And exactly what you would expect!

That's Reform just won their first council seat in Scotland - in Whitburn and Blackburn - in West Lothian. I grew up there and my grandfather (that's me with him below) was Labour provost and a true socialist. I think he would be horrified that Britain is heading back to the 1970s. I know I am!

I think it will amaze people in 20 years time - if WW3 hasn’t happened by then - that, in the midst of a cost-of-living crisis, with madmen in power in the White House and the Kremlin, and the NHS on the brink, so many on the left obsessed about what defines a man and a woman. Astonishing!

This is how Spanish TV announced the boycott of Eurovision

If Russia is banned for what they're doing to Ukraine, surely Israel should be banned for what they're doing in Palestine?

When is the UK going to boycott Eurovision?

"No citizens anywhere else in the world own so little of their own country. Scotland is a nation which has turned its own people into tenants."
Land is power – Scotland’s people have none
Land isn't just about wealth and justice, it's about power. Scotland is cut off from its own land resources and hence is poorer as a nation

Frank Gehry: maximalist master who created instant icons like the Bilbao Guggenheim
He made buildings that looked like slouching drunks and quarrelling couples but it was the Spanish museum that secured his ‘starchitect’ status – a creation that became something of a curse

‘Tablet puts all thoughts to rest’
“Tablet is a sort of crystalline fudge made from sugar, condensed milk, more milk, butter, more sugar and – that might be all, actually. It is an alchemical procedure, not a recipe.”

Pleased to discover that slightly misnaming the national chess championship you won as a school child is a much more serious offence than repeatedly racially abusing your fellow pupils and telling them they should go to the gas chamber

Yesterday in the C'gorms 😀 Though I spend the whole year eagerly anticipating days like this, even when they actually happen I'm still taken aback at how beautiful & uplifting they are 😆 In the depths of winter, when brightness is in short supply, snowfields under a blue sky are a shot in the arm 😎
