Just read your column in the Herald this morning, Neil, and I would like to make a point about walk-in doctor appointments. I'm 81 years old and growing up that was all we had as no one in working class neighbourhoods had a phone. It seemed to work OK as far as I can recall. Let's give it a try.

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

He is right, I have been a Hearts F.C supporter for 75 years. If that's not trauma what is?

Whilst I don't think it necessarily causes racism, poverty may cause discontent with the two party system and thus a desire for change in the shape of Reform.

β€œListen. If the people of this country are divided, then they will lose (the fight on wealth inequality). You’re gonna need each other.”

Gary Stevenson reminding us that it’s a strategy of those who want to retain their wealth and power to keep the people divided.

Great article as usual. Quick question, was the Outsider not written by Albert Camus, or am I confused again.
