John Swinney backs lord advocate after corruption claim The accusation which involves Dorothy Bain was repeated during exchanges at First Minister's Questions in Holyrood.

I’m sure I’m not alone here. Why is it even an issue that the head of the Scottish government was informed about these charges. Nothing was leaked, nothing inappropriate came of it. Just communication https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgjzlzqpwd5o

The future of the monarchy in Scotland - Bylines Scotland What relevant role does the monarchy play today, with or without the present scandal?

β€œCountries across the Commonwealth are rightly reconsidering their relationship with the Monarchy and it is time for Scotland to do the same.

Sorry but why the fuck would you *not* want to recreate 2006?Pre-financial crash, pre-austerity, pre-Brexit, pre-inflation. Britain's economically healthy, decent public services, largely competent government, fairly amiable political disputes. What kind of person prefers this period to that?

A three-ingredient, perfectly cozy, gorgeously-hued cocktail that's become my absolute favorite. It's a cousin to the Negroni, but it uses bourbon or rye instead of gin. The result is more mellow and 100% perfect for right now.

Reform UK gets Β£9mn donation from Christopher Harborne Nigel Farage’s party attracts far more funding than both Labour and the Conservatives

Reform gets largest ever political donation by an individual in UK history from a crypto baron living in Thailand

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

Tucker Carlson is a rightwing conspiracy theorist and Putin apologist who was sacked by FOX.... yes FOX

BUT The Spectator is happy to pay him to talk down our capital city... despite it thriving and crime falling.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as β€˜Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on Β£2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

Why we - and the Home Secretary - disapply the ECHR at our peril By Jessica Frank-Keyes

As Labour proposes limiting the protection of the ECHR, we must remember what it was set up to do; protect us all from abuses of power by our govts.
Be v wary then of anyone calling to do that. You may not be the target now. But why shouldn’t you be next?

Labour MP Brian Leishman: "The Government has surrendered to... the vile rhetoric of Reform. Does the Home Secretary not see that removing the legal obligation to support asylum seekers who will be otherwise destitute, is as far away from Labour Party principles and values as we can get?"
