Polaris, the children’s homes and foster care company, increased pre-tax profits by 53% last year, from £18.1 million to £27.8 million. The business charged councils almost £270 million over 12 months.

14 miles on the West Highland Way today, back to Crianlarich after catching a ferry to Inversnaid. Full of waterfalls, rainbows and… mud 🤎🌈🏔️

BBC’s coverage of Reform’s welfare plans is frankly bizarre. Headlines in Ten, leading on some radio networks. Reform are not even the official opposition and the plans have less credibility than Count Binface. Will BBC News do the same for Lib Dem and Greens policy two years out from an election?

I think my favourite local path is the miles of single-track heading up Beinn Each and on to Stùc a' Chròin ⛰️ Did this yesterday, then just a few miles of track back home #scottishhighlands

Thanks so much Ben! 👋🏼 you’ll see despite my book ending with me told I would never run again, I have found ways to enjoy getting out into the mountains, even if it’s a little slower than previous times!

This is an outrageous failure from Andy Burnham and this Labour Government. He says they "don't know the remedy." It's obvious to almost anyone. Nationalise water companies. Tax fossil fuel companies. Invest in renewables. Labour selling us down the river to please their donors as country burns.

The prospect of Nigel Farage fighting a people vs the establishment by-election in which the only other candidate is Count Binface - is too hilarious for words.

I visited Camp Beagle in Huntingdon, where beagles are bred and kept in tiny cages. They have no access to outdoor space and are subjected to cruel experiments. These outdated practices must end and be replaced by modern, reliable methods.

"Born in rivers fed by rainwater from the mountains, wild salmon move into our estuaries and out to the oceans to grow and feed before returning to the same river to breed. They connect wild mountains to the sea, their presence or absence a verdict on how humans value, treat, and manage the world."

Disgusted to see the US flag, along with the logo for Trump's politicised version of the 250th anniversary celebration, on display at the Scottish Parliament tonight. As the US descends ever further into fascism, MSPs should be standing alongside those the regime threatens, not with its leadership.
