Pam Duncan-Glancy, the Scottish Labour MSP who had the whip withdrawn over her friendship with Sean Morton, has hit back at her treatment, saying she was “deeply disappointed” at the party’s decision and “not yet clear” why they had chosen to do so now...

There is no Scottish Labour
Thinking about Scottish football and the similarities to the way Scottish politics is viewed from down south
"Labour politicians need Starmer still in office so that they can blame him for the inevitable calamity. Sarwar looked desperate yesterday, and by saying what he did, he underlined his own irrelevance."

Pam Bondi was Florida’s Attorney General from 2011 to 2019 and refused to bring charges against Jeffrey Epstein. He was charged with sex trafficking in Florida and New York six months after she left office.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.
Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.
We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.
This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

Keir Starmer scolded by Speaker after raising SNP embezzlement case at PMQs
KEIR Starmer was admonished by the Speaker at Prime Minister’s Questions after raising the “live case” against former SNP chief executive…
"Keir Starmer scolded by Speaker after raising SNP embezzlement case at PMQs"
As a lawyer, he knew what he was doing, it was quite deliberate. Just like Johnson always calling @snp.org the "Scottish Nationalist Party".
The drip, drip of anti- #SNP propaganda

Telegraph columnist Camilla Tominey says putting VAT on private schools is unpopular. Maybe she should get out of the Telegraph r/w echo chamber more as all polling shows putting VAT on private schools is popular.: 62% support via YouGov. #PoliticsLive

UK and US sink to new lows in global index of corruption
Countries’ drop in scores in annual table comes amid ‘worrying trend’ of backsliding in established democracies
UK and US sink to new lows in global index of corruption.
The Index is flawed but tells a story. Political parties, legislators available for hire, crony contracts, VIP lanes, money buys honours
UK more corrupt than Estonia, Hong Kong, Uruguay, Ireland.
No relief in sight.

Perhaps on reflection the attack line for Scottish Labour MPs is to use this reminder of who took money from Labour Together- McSweeney’s and Mandelson’s campaign?

🟡The SNP has reduced income tax for those on basic and intermediate rates. 55% of Scots pay less tax than UK counterparts.
🐎It’s a 2-horse race between the SNP and Tories in Edinburgh Central.
🗳️Vote SNP and Angus Robertson for fairer taxation.

Created major problem for an already fractious party, normally if level of support being shown for Starmer then Sarwar would need to resign, but less than 3 months to election there may not be time. Conference will be interesting

“Fall to third place” rather sums up the piece, Labour have been in third place at Holyrood for 5 years. There “routing” of SNP was 5% points. All in all rather soft puff piece for a man who has demonstrated an incredible lack of principle or political ability.

I have made up my mind and looked into it. Vote SNP 1 and SNP 2 is my vote
Giving away to the green decreases the amount of SNP returns.
It will especially not help in areas that have high Tory and now Reform votes. Giving 2 to 🍏
So yup that's what my opinion is after reading further into it.

I have today been informed that, despite personal assurances to the contrary, the Green party have once again used my image and misrepresented my words on a second leaflet circulated in Gorton and Denton ahead of the by-election. I have now lodged an official complaint with the returning officer.

Breaking: Anas Sarwar said tonight he has complete confidence in Sir Kier & says he gives the PM his fool backing.
Mr Sarwar added: “I utterly condemn Anas Sarwar’s divisive intervention today which was idiotic, immature & incoherent”.
“I will be having words with him when we get him home” 👀 😳

Anyone who thinks this is Anas Sarwar putting 'country before party' needs their damn head examining. This is Anas Sarwar putting his own ludicrous hopes of becoming Scotland's First Minister ahead of both his party and country
The London commentariat are frankly embarrassing on any Scottish issue.

I think the best thing about Anas Sarwar's press conference this afternoon was thatmjust after calling for Starmer to quit, he took questions from the journalists present and 2 minutes in someone basically asked 'Hang on, weren't you friends with Mandelson as well?'
