My maternal great-great grandfather was from St Kilda and moved to Harris back in the 1820s. I visited it last year - what a beautiful, peaceful place it is.

You have to wonder why an individual gifts £20k to Rupert Lowe, a millionaire MP for Reform. You also have to wonder why that millionaire MP accepts it, especially when he makes such a song and dance about donating his net Parliamentary income to charity. 🤔🤔🤔

That's a great survey. I have it from a reliable source that the immigrant seagulls follow the request he makes in his multilingual sign, but the rare English gull which ventures into town pay no attention. Can you raise this in one of your PQs, please?

@heraldscotland.bsky.social, why the misleading title for an article about Network Rail on your home page but not for the article itself ?

Yesterday, on Linked, I replied to Ethan Thoburn's post asking why the UK appeared to be an afterthought in his final sentence. I also replied to Lucy Jayne White (in the same thread) asking why she ignored Scotland, Wales and NI.
Both posts were deleted. I reposted them. They were deleted again!

I don't know which is more amazing: @heraldscotland.bsky.social's readers having the foresight to be able to comment on events 80 years ahead of us or a 153 year old man making significant political interventions.

If you'd done some homework before writing to the ICO, you'd have discovered it doesn't set the fees whilst a quick visit to its website would have let you to a whole section for small organisations (ico.org.uk/for-organisa...)

I'm no fan of Keir Starmer but what a twisted comment to make following his brother's death. Julie Sweeney "Don't protect the mosques, blow the mosque up with the adults in it" on FB and deserves all that she got.
