Brent Crude hits $114 a Barrel.

Shame then that it ran out 7 years ago.

Of course, when the price of energy increases, it not only hits business and household bills, it impacts absolutely everything: hospitals, schools, council services. Indeed, ALL public services.

Why does the UK only have two days supply in store when countries elsewhere have several weeks worth?

John Swinney: 'I won't rest until child poverty is eradicated in Scotland' In his Daily Record column, First Minister John Swinney says he will today unveil further steps to tackle child poverty.

Scotland has the lowest child poverty rate in the UK, and 90,000 fewer children live in poverty thanks to our policies.

But decisions at Westminster have too often held us back.

I want to fully eradicate child poverty, and Scotland should have the full powers to do it.

Thanks again for publishing the lists Lorna. I eventually got round to following them all.

Today is International Women’s Day.

Over 70,000 women serve in Ukraine’s military.

Thousands fight on the front line.

Medics. Snipers. Drone pilots. Infantry.

They are not just defending Ukraine.
They are defending freedom itself.

Scottish Labour told to come clean on Tony Blair's 'secret' NHS privatisation plans

Scottish Labour have been urged to come clean on 'creeping' and 'secret' plans to privatise Scotland's NHS following an intervention from a think tank founded by Tony Blair

Labour’s dangerous plans for NHS Scotland The Holyrood elections are just eight weeks away. This will be a critical election for Scotland’s future and it is more important than ever that Scotland returns a pro-independence majority, …

Labour has dangerous plans for NHS Scotland & would introduce privatisation by the back door. Meanwhile Reform UK is hostile to the very concept of free universal healthcare. Only an SNP led Scottish Govt will protect NHS Scotland from the private sector.

Or other worldly.

Yes.

Somewhat different from them openly and intentionally twisting information and facts or ignoring things that they should be broadcasting.

The BBC is neither fair nor impartial on some issues.

But yes, the Zircon affair was almost otherly world.

Yes. The BBC is far from without fault on a lot of issues.

I think the BBC has a partnership agreement with CBS and CBC?

It really depends on the issue, whether the BBC is neutral or not.

Octopus Energy has said that with "regional pricing" it could indeed be free in Scotland.

That's why the Labour UK government opposes the policy: It would then cost more in London and the south east of England.

They’ve shut down their “Scottish” subsidiary.

Oh, just the business vehicle of Nigel Farage masquerading as a political party breaching its obligations at Companies House.

It's a Home Office proposal in a consultation by the Labour government.

Only trained staff should restrain children as a last resort. That's what happens in the UK. All recorded and reported.

No handcuffs.

Yes. Decent people will oppose it.

Labour in the UK again out-Torying the Tories.

Handcuffing the children of immigrants, indeed.

If we want a stable, secure, peaceful world, our governments should support democracy and self-determination everywhere, whether or not they agree with what the people want. Instead, for centuries, they have attacked democracy and self-rule, and we all live with the consequences.

This article was amended on 5 March 2026. An earlier version said low-skilled workers would “receive immediate access to welfare and social housing” if Labour did not make them wait longer to apply for settlement. In fact, settlement status only gives people the eligibility to apply for welfare and social housing, it does not give them instant or automatic access to such benefits. This has been clarified. From breaking news to huge investigative proje

Guardian has now [after my complaint] corrected Mahmood's deliberate & incendiary false claim settlement gives immigrants "immediate access to welfare and social housing".

Good for Gdn but embarrassing/shameful that Home Secretary deliberately misled the public for political gain like this.
