What utter clowns at Shoot Bamboo photography. pathetic school photos of Calum- no engagement, no care- and the photos are 90% wheelchair and 10% child. They provide photos capturing smiles that endure a lifetime, apparently. What a load of absolute bull. Compare with one taken on a phone by us.

If only she’d shown such leadership when she might have had the chance, maybe when, you know, she was the actual Prime Minister. Instead of wasting the qualities she undoubtedly brought to the role chasing the Brexit disaster.

Prime Minister: Don’t Cut Aid, Tax Wealth The prime minister has announced a brutal 40% cut to the UK aid budget, in the wake of Donald Trump’s calls for increased military spending. It's a wrong-headed move that represents a retreat from

This one’s now enjoying a trip to Aberdeen 🤗

It’s a @bromptonbicycle.bsky.social powered trip with ScotRail for me this week 😃

This asshole is:

1. Railing against someone who actually practices their faith as Jesus instructed, something he never does;

2. Railing against people who release criminals from jails when he released over a thousand just this week; and

3. Railing against refugees, when Jesus was one in Egypt.

Queuing at the non EU passport gates! Such a fantastic time to reflect on life and enjoy the serenity.

“More than one in three children in poverty as UK deprivation hits record high.”

This is not inevitable, and it is not irreversible.

Bumblebee population increases 116 times over in 'remarkable' Scotland project ‘The sound of traffic and a uniform sea of barley have been replaced by the most beautiful meadows, full of wildflowers, young saplings and the buzz of bees’

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I?

Like if you do

I'm not exaggerating: as a historian I consider it to be historical fact that this is one of the most shameful documents in the history of the United States.

It's a concession by federal law enforcement that there's no means available to it to punish one of the biggest traitors in American history.

'Britain dumped other mistakes, now it's time to dump Brexit' Britain dumped other mistakes: time to dump Brexit says our letter writer. What do you think?

All polls show that the public mood on Brexit has changed.
People want it undone.
