Line graph time series of 2025's daily Arctic sea ice extent compared to decadal averages from the 1980s to the 2010s. The decadal averages are shown with different colored lines with purple for the 1980s, blue for the 1990s, green for the 2000s, and white for the 2010s. Thin white lines are also shown for each year from 2000 to 2024. 2025 is shown with a thick gold line, which is currently a record low for the current date. There is a long-term decreasing trend in ice extent for every day of the year shown on this graph between October and January by looking at the decadal average line positions.

Edinburgh MSP facing Holyrood exit after sexual harassment complaint Labour MSP Foysol Choudhury is facing an exit from Holyrood in the next election after he was suspended over a sexual harassment, and sits as an independent.

Anyone spot this being picked up by the BBC in Scotland? Thought not.

The "Edinburgh MSP" was Labour.

Bit of a late night tonight, ended up looking for something to watch & ended up with BBC "special" Question Time from Dover on the migrants issue. Audience well balanced, not so panel one of whom (Reform) trotted out the 'third of children in Glasgow don't have English as 1st language" line. 1/2

Meanwhile, parties like the SNP, Scottish Greens and English and Welsh Greens rely on moderate donations from ordinary people. How is this a level playing field? It's not. Its highest bidder owns the government.

And Reform can use this huge donation just as well in their election campaign in Scotland as England.

Scottish parties are always vastly outgunned in campaign funding spent in Scotland by the English parties. This is a ridiculous situation.

Cross-border subsidies shouldn't be allowed.

UK Labour is tanking in the Scottish polls - yet still theyโ€™re obstinately spineless, arrogant and ungrateful, even toward their own dwindling band of supporters.

As predicted, ITV news tonight showing loads of patients in corridors, waiting 2-3 days for a bed, with one being taken into a toilet for tests. Wes Streeting "I wouldn't want to be treated like that". In other words, I'd go to a private hospital, as promised by my bribing friends.

Let's be real, Trump, Boris Johnson, Nigel Farage have all been involved with Russia. They're all highly sexist, racist, they all have the same ideals because Brexit and all that is happening now is a Russian conspiracy. It's been in the works for years and people need to be charged for their part.

True!
Except that the "Scottish" labour was only imagined into existence after devolution.
It was simply Labour as it is today: a Westminster Party without the rebranding
