It is truly refreshing to see the ‘don’t speak ill of the dead’ mantra being widely ignored after the death of a truly awful man. Augurs well for the one we’re all waiting for.

Utterly ridiculous that this is the lead story on BBC Scotland news site. ‘SNP in favour of independence’ Not news. ‘Russell Findlay opposed to independence’ Also not news. Russell Findlay obsessed with saying the SNP is obsessed with independence. Also also not news. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Badenoch’s suggestion of universal childcare is bizarre. In itself it’s a sensible idea, but this from the party which removed universal child benefit & created the greatest single unfairness in the tax system affecting parents with differential incomes. Also, getting paid more <> working harder.

If I lived in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, I’d be heaving a sigh of relief as finally a PM has an idea of what needs to change. For 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 , it’s thin gruel as our own govt has already delivered most headline policies & much more. England has been governed terribly in recent years by the govts they elected. We chose better.

The lyric doesn’t scan. The accent falls on the 2nd syllable of ‘story’ which breaches one of the most basic songwriting rules taught in early music education. Even geniuses can make mistakes but Stevie W is enough of a perfectionist to make sure they don’t reach the album.

The ‘Songs in the Key of Life EP’ just released is a fascinating listen. It’s clear why these 4 tracks didn’t make the album. Ideas being explored but none reached the level required. ‘My Life Story of Love’ in particular surprised me that it made it this far. open.spotify.com/album/7gzJYO...

The increasingly bizarre details emerging about the Fairford incident are shining the brightest possible spotlight on the knee-jerk twattery of right wingers. Trump, Rubio, Farage, Tice, Oakeshott. All just making shit up which is disproved by actual facts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

One of the five men arrested near RAF Fairford called 999 himself

He made the call almost an hour before a farmer also called police after seeing men in balaclavas.

Scottish Labour generally adopts a relentless ‘SNP Bad’ policy on everything. Given that their UK leader just announced a raft of policies which replicate many of the SNP’s great achievements over the last 2 decades, Marra has his work cut out. Just admit it Michael - they’ve done lots of good work.

Exactly. Privileged Brit arrogance personified. Would be great if BBC had a journalist who’d actually challenge these people. He’s not a wealth creator, he’s a wealth hoarder. Extracted billions of wealth from the UK economy at the expense of many people’s jobs then ran off to Monaco to avoid tax.

I’m not convinced that Trump denying legit media access to the White House is actually as big a deal as it’s made out. He lies constantly & incoherently so the only one to gain from reporting that is him. They can still cover his insanity, just without the direct interactions. Call the liar out.

All day Piddington's womminfolk have been telling news how they will be terrified of "hundreds of young men nearby, free to come and go as they please." NOT ONE JOURNALIST has asked: "How did you cope when it was an army base? Who came and went then? Nuns?" Soon as you ask that, all becomes clear.
