Aye, you’re welcome Mr Burnham. Though maybe you could have said “thanks Scotland” in your speech ? Nah of course you couldn’t.

Labour is positioning itself to argue that the Brexit vote was not final, and that the promises made to win the vote for Leave 10 years ago have not been met. Sound familiar, Scotland?

Starmer’s ‘landslide victory’ came from the votes of less than 20% of the electorate. That is not democracy. Clip from our panel discussion on the Celtic Alliance hosted in EU Parliament in April this year. @opendemocracy.net @yesforeu.bsky.social @drphilippa.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/RPbrg...

What Burnham said on social care: a “landmark policy, as significant as the creation of the NHS itself”. What he didn’t say: it would be based on the Scottish adult social care approach: free personal care, with individuals paying for accommodation. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

How will Burnham’s national care service work – and how will it be funded?
PM has revealed more details about a proposed shake-up of adult social care – including a broad timetable

Menstrie Castle vaulted  area which may have been storage cellars off the kitchenAlloa's medieval Old Kirk, all that remains now is the church tower and an array of headstones at various angles, the oldest we saw were 17th century but many are so weathered you can't make out the date

Yes, glorious indeed. But still the Reform smoke & mirrors is now in place. Ably supported by James Cook on BBC Scotland. And I have to say @mareetodd.bsky.social needs to be a lot better at rebutting his kind of biased aggressive interview technique. She practically apologised for the drug deaths.

Crime fiction fans set for a Bloody good time at festival Crime fiction fans have been looking forward to the crispness of a Scottish autumn for months, and counting down the days until this year's Bloody Scotland crime writing festival arrives - the wait is almost over, as the festival begins tomorrow, Friday 18th September. Last year the festival introduced a guest programmer, in the shape of Sir Ian Rankin; this year Denise Mina has taken on the mantle and opened up her address book to bring some stellar names to Stirling, and will be kept busy all weekend chairing events.

Ireland have won Eurovision 7 times, a joint record with Sweden. To have them simply not take part is huge, but for them to boycott it, could have huge repercussions for it's future. All because the organisers are willing for a genocidal state (that isn't even part of Europe) to participate.
