I think the recent bagpipe players drowning him out in Scotland have affected him just a wee bit โ€ฆ

One thing to do, stop calling it Alligator Alcatraz and start calling it what it is, a concentration camp called Alligator Auschwitz.

Just for clarity, Rod Stewart is still technically Scottish, but weโ€™ve disowned him because heโ€™s somewhat of a massive prick.

ACT NOW: No New Oil! A once-in-a-generation opportunity to protect the climate.

We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to protect the climate, by putting an end to new oil and gas projects in the U.K. Will you join me in signing the petition? www.stopcambo.org.uk/p/no-new-oil...

What you do way outweighs any grammatical errors. Happy to give constructive criticism if needed, but mostly Iโ€™m just really grateful for your excellent work ๐Ÿ™

Each to their own, dear, each to their own! But as I said, I used to support her wholeheartedly. My eyes have been opened, maybe yours will be one day too.

Given that she wonโ€™t be SNP any more, and that she has no morals, itโ€™s exactly the kind of trick Iโ€™d expect her to pull. And this from someone who used to support her 100%.

Just seen Farage and Truss (grifting over in the US) described as "the Slug and Lettuce".

BARRON TRUMP WAS BORN MARCH 20TH 2006

MELANIA BECAME A US CITIZEN JULY 28TH 2006.

As Melania was *not* an american citizen when the child was born, Trumps Executive Order to deport people should, if applied consistently, trigger the deportation of his wife and child.

This is part of a clear pattern of more extreme and unpredictable weather

The damage will be paid for by taxpayers or through people's increasing insurance bills โ€“ while the polluting companies profiting from driving the climate crisis get away with it

It's time to make polluters pay

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

If these ambulance blockers aren't arrested at the same rate and speed as other protesters there is going to be quite the public outcry.

The band I most regret never having seen live. He looks like heโ€™s having a hoot here! ๐Ÿ˜‚

That is sheer class. I wonder it all looked like from his point of view - very entertaining, I reckon! ๐Ÿ˜‚
The band I most regret never having seen live. What a frontman, what a guitarist!

Cracking wee venue, isnโ€™t it? Colvin gets some great acts there! Glad Euros Child were good.

Exactly. I live in north east Scotland, where jobs in oil and gas pay well above similar grade jobs elsewhere. Iโ€™ve chosen never to work for a fossil fuel company, although it means I earn less. Itโ€™s called having a social conscience - an alien concept to many.

Well, lo and behold. That thing we all said would happen, is happening. Erosion of powers until Holyrood is just a puppet theatre. Feckin marvellous.
