Scot living in England. Celtic Fan. West Wing Fan. Comic Book Fan. Chair of Rochester and Strood CLP. Labour Activist. Political nerd.
Questions for the next budget come earlier every year.

Well done Sky for this.

It feeds the narrative you want, knowing full well 12 months is a long time, who know what the shape of the country will be in 12 months time.

Labour lifted 450,000 kids out of poverty yesterday but according to Beth Rigby thats bad for Labour and as for the BBC, nah not even going to mention it.

Totally normally country, where the national broadcaster and biggest news channel clearly distain this Labour Government, not even hiding it.

I did the budget calculator, so I am little worse off, not massively.

Lifting half a million kids out of poverty, seems like a good price to pay to me.

SCOTLAND HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE WORLD CUP, THE FIRST ONE SINCE 1998.

SCOTLAND HAVE QUALIFIED FOR THE LAST 3 OF 4 TOURNAMENTS. 2020, 2024 AND 2026.

STEVE CLARK WILL NEVER HAVE TO BUY A PINT IN SCOTLAND AGAIN.

IGNORING WHERE THE NEXT WORLD CUP IS FOR 5 MINUTES RIGHT NOW TO ENJOY THIS MOMENT.

The same news organisation folks.

CNN used to be a neutral news organisation, internationally recognised, just like the BBC, however the news output has shifted to the right the last couple of years (just like BBC News).

Lovely impartial reporting there from Sky News...

The right choice. The only choice.

I am happy that I voted for Lucy and she won.

The statement from the CLP following the incident last night. We strongly condemn this action.

Voted for Lucy Powell this morning.

Nothing against Bridget, but as Education Secretary, she has to focus on the portfolio and particularly SEN coming to Parliament in the horizon.

Makes me proud to be a Celtic fan.

After Rangers losing yesterday, I kept quiet because I didn't know how today was going to go (and it could have been a loss for us), however we got over the line and now top of the table, just and 9 points clear of Rangers.

We still have our problems, but this is a step in the right direction.

A few thoughts on my post yesterday, which had quite a reaction on Threads.

Never in my name.

Makes you ashamed to be from this country.

These people are not patriots. They are fake patriots.

Never in my name. Never.

Jon Craig, not even 24 hours later after his "victim of Misogyny" piece on Sky News, posts this.

We see you, Chief Political Correspondent for Sky News. We see you.

I am often critical of my party when it comes to comms, but this is really good.

Simple, direct, cuts through.

More of this please Labour.

John Criag, I think you answered your own question here mate...

The Scottish womans rugby team have qualified for the next round.

We play Canada next so either way we go through.

After this weeks shameful performance by Celtic, who knows how this will go.

It could have been worse.

Both Celtic and Rangers play Roma, which will be interesting.

So, I went home to Scotland for a week. It was a holiday, so I treated it like a holiday abroad, muted apps etc, and only hearing tidbits on TV, rarely checking SM. I'm still catching up on stuff, but the stuff the far right is doing, well I'm not surprised.

Anyway, here are photos from Scotland.
