I read a lot of books and watch a lot of tv, talk about politics and admire beautiful art & photography. I post about all these things.

Reform were on Question Time again last night. That's 5 out of the last 6 weeks. If the Holyrood elections next year are between them & the SNP, how can we have fair elections in Scotland when one party is on mainstream TV all the time & the other is hardly seen at all?

Did Trump get his love of hideous gold stick on tacky thingies from Jeffrey Epsteins house? Sure looks the same to me.

Those of us in Scotland have had to put up with hugely biased output from BBC & Radio Scotland for years. Their anti SNP reporting is obvious (see some examples below), but apparently, it takes bias to someone in a foreign country for anyone to care. #bbc

Finished watching #BlueLights last night after it had previously passed me by. What a wonderfully written & acted show. An incredibly tense drama that also has humour & heart. Highly recommend.

David Lammy says it's not the Scottish people but the SNP who are a threat to national security, but it's the Scottish people who vote for the SNP so it would seem that he also means all of us. And what does him being 5% Scottish have to do with anything?

Very few videos sum up the British media as completely as this one. Lindsay Whittle won the election for Plaid Cymru in Caerphilly but he is ignored by all of the reporters apart from Teleri Glyn Jones for the BBC as they swarm around the Reform candidate (For once the BBC is in the right place!)

So BBC describes Nadine Dorries as a Daily Mail Columnist, but we all real reason she's there and that's to represent Reform. Why not tell the truth?

First bowl of homemade soup of the autumn. It's so easy to make, much healthier than tins & tastes delicious.
Following in the proud soup making tradition of my Mum & Gran 😁.

The Nathan Gill scandal should be huge news so why has the British media been mainly silent about it? (I think we know 🤔)
Here's Fiona Bruce shutting down any mention & acting like the audience aren't interested.

One of the pitfalls of the Holyrood voting system is that we end up with people like Murdo....
If you don't know Murdo he gained a list seat in 2003, 2007, 2011, 2016 and 2021, having lost to John Swinney on each occasion in the constituency vote & he also posts awful tweets, like the one below:
