The story of interwar cinemas in Edinburgh is usually one of three acts: a brief heyday, a long decline as a bingo hall and then demolition. There's often a fire in there too for luck. Today's subjects - Craigmillar's Rio and County - are no exception.

Interesting first round in the Portuguese Presidential election yesterday. The Far Right’s Andre Ventura came second with 23.5% of the vote, well beaten by socialist Antonio Jose Seguro on 31.1%. The runoff is on February 8 which Seguro is expected to win.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath? Character isn't something you tell people about. It's something you live.

That pic was taken in June 1984, of "women during the miners' strike, Fitzwilliam, Yorkshire" The country was not united then - Thatcher's war on the working class and the trade unions was in full swing, just like the truncheons wielded by the Met at Orgreave en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_...

That middle-ground tendency is going to get absolutely battered from all sides... and it will be others suggesting directions for the UK, not him - leaving the PM to be constantly responding to other people's leads, rather than leading himself with anything bold.
