The day after former Scottish Labour minister Frank McAveety was arrested and charged with fraud BBC Scotland reported that Scottish Labour had been approached for comment. Over two weeks later and we're still waiting to hear what the party said. Why has this story been killed?

Starmer's St George's day video repeatedly conflates England with Britain. Something Westminster politicans love to do. For them, Scotland doesn't exist except when we have something they want - like renewable energy. Or somewhere to store nuclear weapons.

"Why is Scotland an afterthought for Labour?" Graphic showing Labour are considering nationalising British Steel in Scunthorpe, but not Grangemouth in Scotland

Labour are planning to nationalise British Steel - to save the Scunthorpe plant from closing down.

Why didn't Labour do the same when Scotland's last oil refinery announced it was closing down?

Scottish jobs are an afterthought for Labour.

The Scottish media’s personality disorder If the Labour government wanted to know why so many people are claiming sickness and disability benefits for anxiety and depression, all they need to do is to cast an eye over the handiwork of thei…

In Greenland all healthcare is free, mothers are entitled to 14 weeks of maternity leave, fathers to 3 weeks paternity leave, workers to 5 weeks paid holiday leave annually. Minimum wage is $18.50 per hr. There are no tuition fees for students. No wonder they don't want to be part of Trump's empire.

Scotland’s offshore wind industry means thousands of new jobs and a stronger economy.

We’re investing in our supply chain, backing innovation and attracting private investment to build a wealthier, greener future.

A huge opportunity for Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It’s beyond cruel, and all it does is make people’s lives worse, their mental health worse and therefore their cost to the nhs greater. It an evil plan with evil consequences in my view.

You know things are bad for Scottish Labour when even they refuse to talk to the BBC

🗣️ 'It's not that his colleagues couldn't appear on the BBC to defend their actions, it's that they wouldn't'

Westminster doesn't serve us. Scotland needs a new direction - Independence.

Sarwar backs Starmer’s welfare cuts. Here’s what it means for you:

🔴 Thousands could lose vital support.
🔴 More people forced into poverty.
🔴 Holyrood will be left to pick up the pieces with less funding.

Scottish Labour is standing with Westminster, not with Scotland.

I did not have high expectations of Keir Starmer, he was always obviously Blair 2.0, but I did think that as a disabled person at the very least I would no longer live in terror of disability benefit cuts as I did under the Tories. How wrong was that fond hope.

The five Scottish Labour MPs who signed a joint letter to DWP secretary Liz Kendall, supporting her decision to announce austerity cuts to benefits for disabled people this week.

Remember when the BBC strongly supported the anti-Scottish Gov mob in killing off Scotland's plans for Highly Protected Marine Areas? Turns out those Unionists were the problem all along when it came to environmental protection...

This upsets me greatly.

More than 200 million free bus journeys have been made by under-22s across Scotland.

This means young people can travel to their place of work, learning or to hang out with family and friends while saving them and their family significant amounts of money.

'The struggle is not just for self-determination or economic regeneration. It is now about cultural survival in an age when globalism, neoliberalism and the internet are expunging national distinctions and historical cultures, including Scotland's.'

Anyone would think they're asset tripping Scotland... I wonder why they'd want to do that?

The SNP's Michelle Thomson reminding us that Westminster tied its own hands when it gave Grangemouth to the private sector. Once again, Scotland is bearing the brunt of Westminster's mismanagement...

First Minister John Swinney with University of Glasgow Principal Professor Sir Anton Muscatelli.

The group of UofG students and colleagues sitting round a table talking with John Swinney.

Pleased to welcome First Minister @johnswinney.bsky.social to the UofG campus to meet our widening participation team and some of our care-experienced students.

The group discussed The Promise, Scotland’s commitment to care-experienced young people, and the support that UofG provides.

So am I - what about you?

After months of collective punishment and the death of over 40,000 in Gaza, any suggestion Palestinians should be removed from their home is unacceptable and dangerous.

There must be no ethnic cleansing.

Only a proper two state solution will bring lasting peace.

Budget strategy and risk pays off for Swinney The government's tax and spending plans will be debated at Holyrood but the final outcome is already secured.

Is it just me, or is the disappointing tone in this article almost audible? 😐
