it’s so good that Joanna Cherry timed her book launch to try and damage the SNP’s election campaign in the couple weeks before the election and it has to fight for headlines with yet another Peter Mandelson scandal
The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.
The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.
The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.
It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.
Wondering who the friendly journalist was at that time. Severin Carroll at the Guardian? Glenn Campbell at the BBC? Learmonth/McKenna at the Herald?
Lol maybe it was just Mandy at Holyrood mag
🇬🇧 Desperate stuff from bbc Shortbread’s shouty Fiona Stalker, as she continually interrupted First Minister John Swinney during her Leaders ‘interview’
🇬🇧 Stalker, the wife of a Labour politician, is obviously irritated that the SNP are projected to win an Indyref entitling majority at HR26
🏴🇪🇺😎
Folk have been sent to court for disrupting the UK arms supply chain to Israel
Folk arrested on terrorism charges for saying words to the effect of, “they oppose genocide”
RAF give their briefings to
no.10
Awfy hard to pretend one is unaware of what’s happening when already commenting on arrests
The vast majority of MPs don’t think they are part of normal society and think they will be MPs for as long as they want. That’s the problem
If Kemi Badenoch became Prime Minister it would be like having a cross between Boris Johnson and Liz Truss in charge. She is utterly unserious, utterly superficial and utterly useless.

'I feel profoundly let down.' Is Starmer's government mimicking the Tories and their '14 years of corruption and dishonesty'? James O'Brien says he was 'perhaps naive' to think it would be any different.
It’s not like nobody told James they were like this: he was told over and over what it was he was buying and how these people behave. The problem was, he was told it by people he regards as intellectually, morally and socially inferior to him, so he could not hear any of it.
"You're spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock. Somehow you think that's a better public health message than informing the public about the benefits of vaccines. Really? -- Rep. Linda Sanchez to RFK Jr
Starmer is a liar like his pal Sarwar and neither of them are any good at it.
Which is exactly what the BBC is in Scotland. I cannot wait for the day we have our own apolitical media that fairly holds politicians to account on our behalf 🤷
FFS. Nothing takes me out of a film faster than failure to even do the most basic research. The Statue of Liberty is on an ISLAND. It is not buried in a jaunty angle in the sand.
Facebook radicalises so many adults, yet governments are anxious about the young people who aren't on it.
On a train tomorrow for a uni offers day. Wanted to cast on a new pair of socks .. off to wool shop I go.
Lady in there is obv on FB and harping on about immigrants & free benefits and we are too full
So - looking for a new yarn supplier! Like to shop local but not with racist ill informed fucks!
So an admission by Reform, there, that the Union *is* a prison. Surprisingly that seems the most honest of the replies.
The London parties were forced to answer "if the UK is a voluntary union, what's Scotland's route out" at last night's Peebles hustings.
I can see why they normally refuse to answer...
Reform: "if it were voluntary the SNP would have already taken us out: no idea what the route is"
1/3...
Well, one important person in particular *was* asking for that appointment, and things have historically tended to go quite badly for people who make that guy unhappy. People who upset him quite swiftly wake up to find platoons of reporters on their doorsteps, asking them questions quite forcefully.
Pacific Quay's suburban workforce is hellbent on preserving two centuries of British sectarianism and imperialism, whether Scotland wants it or not. Objectively, it's a bizarre, destructive mission.
The Daily 'Talking Up Scotland'...
News lows from our media, will Mr P Smith and Ms F Stalker please stand up.

Jane Harris, vice chair of the Disabled Children's Partnership, said the comments were "ignorant" and it was an "absolute fantasy" that people could get support easily.
What a burke!! #smashreform
The useless, middle-class obsession with hurty feels, even if you're objectively despicable, makes me want to send them all into space, a la Douglas Adams.
Sharon Osborne was
▶️an immigrant into the USA in the late 1970s
▶️an immigrant into Ireland in the mid 1990s
▶️an immigrant into the USA again from 2002 to 2005
▶️and then again from 2010 to 2020
She has been an immigrant for approx 48 of her 73 years

🧵 If you are not familiar with the City of Limerick you don’t understand culture, life or art. It’s one of those world cities that beats with the zeitgeist. It was seat of the only Irish Soviet & left wing when the Irish theocracy was far right socially. Its authors & poets were alternative … [1]
It's Tory-esque this. "We can't know everything, it was someone else's fault"
I mean, you're running the country. And you're supposed to be better than the last mob, more importantly. Fuck sake.
Flying_Rodent @flying_rod..• 17/04/2023 X The Times are today reporting Sir Keir didn't know about this stuff because he's basically a bonnet ornament: a balloon on a stick, a stuffed suit the PR ghouls actually running the show can shove in front of a camera.
