EXCL: Campaigners call for Jimmy Carr's Scottish gigs to be cancelled after he hosted a secret party for the Israeli embassy. It was attended by the likes of the Israeli ambassador, who opposes the existence of a Palestinian state.

Great to see Scottish Government put public transport users first in #PfG2025.

Scrapping peak rail fares is a good step – but we still need affordable buses to make public transport truly cheaper than driving 👇

This is truly pathetic, small-minded & struggling to find relevance from the Scots Tory leader. While misunderstanding contemporary Scotland by associating the politics of independence with the politics of divisiveness when there are big issues we all need to come together on.

Declaration of Arbroath #OnThisDay
On 6th April 1320 the barons and freeholders of the Kingdom of Scotland wrote a letter to Pope John XXII. The letter asked the pope to recognise Scotland's independence and acknowledge Robert the Bruce as the country's lawful king. Written in Latin, it was sealed by eight earls and about 40 barons. It was authenticated by seals, as documents at that time were not signed.

Labour voters in Scotland who receive Adult Disability Payment, which replaces the DWPs PIP system up here & is now fully devolved to ScotGov, meaning cuts to PIP by UKLab will NOT affect them, should realise if SLab were in power in Scotland that would NOT be the case 💯

I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore.

Long Read: A Plea for Plausible Polling

Recent FindOutNow polling has been obvious bollocks. Scotland doesn't get enough polling that we can afford to have complete rubbish distorting our discourse.

The Labour Party we remember is long gone. Labour MPs standing beside workers is no longer.
They’ve shown themselves to be #RedTories determined to persecute pensioners & children.

Property tycoon Nick Candy has joined Reform as their Treasurer. He is perhaps best known for partying during lockdown, so he should fit right in.

My piece for The National today. Labour in Scotland has a serious problem with its candidates and councillors. If this was the SNP, it would dominate BBC Reporting Scotland for weeks.
