What kind of miserable wee s***e had the meanness of spirit to ask how much it cost to send the New York mayor an SNP baby box and which media outlet do they work for – what’s your guess?

This week John Swinney opened the first GP walk-in centre & froze rail fares. That’s what being on Scotland’s side looks like.

Anas Sarwar woke up on Monday thinking he was Brutus, but went to bed looking like Mr Bean. That’s what working in your own self-interest looks like.

✅ Rail fares: frozen
✅ Peak fares: scrapped
✅ More money in your pocket

The SNP is working hard to reduce the cost of living, and this is the latest example.

The Prime Minister says he changed the Labour Party.

He's right. He changed it from a party of principle, workers and peace, to a party of patronage, the establishment and war.

Poverty, corruption and complicity in genocide. That will be his government's legacy.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

"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

Four months ago, I committed to introducing a pilot of GP walk-in clinics.

Today I am opening Scotland's first walk-in GP clinic in Wester Hailes, Edinburgh - open seven days a week, 12-8pm, no appointments needed.

Thanks to our fantastic NHS staff for making this possible.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

Clean Pure Water - Indy PosterBoy Did you know that Scotland’s state-owned water company massively outperforms our neighbours, with water standards similar to much of Scandinavia?

As the BBC tries to spin water price rise in Scotland (whilst ignoring higher price in England), it's worth remembering that water is privatised in England, pays dividends to profiteers, and has a *dreadful* record on cleanliness and sewage dumping.
