Revenge of the Tyrants is up for the 2027 People’s Book Prize. Turns out writing about medieval chaos rather than the Westminster form pays off. If you want to help me cause a bit more, vote here: peoplesbookprize.com/2026-books/r...

Edinburgh Airport,a national disgrace. Arrived 7.55pm, luggage arrived 9.15pm. Baggage Hall chaotic, people broke out into applause when their luggage arrived. Airport mgt absent leaving handling agents to deal with the customers or mugs, customer care is a foreign land for them #edinburghairport

Thames Water lenders offer 'golden share' to head off nationalisation. UK Govt has golden share in Royal Mail. What did it deliver? High prices, profiteering, poor service, executive bonuses. Golden share won't change anything. TW will still pay dividends, hike bills, dump sewage. Nationalise.

To everyone who took time to acknowledge Ted & to share a kind word, I want you to know how much it has meant.Ted was extraordinary and seeing him recognised by thousands of strangers has been a quiet comfort. Thank you for reminding me, even in the worst moments, people can still be gentle.

For Ted Yesterday I lost a dog called Ted. He was remarkable. Cancer took him, but never touched his spirit. He gave more to my life than I can express. If you read this, honour him in the simplest way be gentle with dogs. They are the best thing this world offers,& Ted was proof of that.

It is crucial that you get out & vote. Apathy could be exactly what the unionist parties rely on. What is the point in complaining after Thursday? To my mind those complaints because you chose apathy are not legitimate. #SNP#Green2 #AreYouYesYet #WhyNotScotland

I want to lead an SNP government that brings down your bills - cheaper essential foods, lower bus fares and expanded childcare. Other parties, led by Reform, only talk about opposing and stopping us. That is the choice on the ballot paper one week from today. #BothVotesSNP
