Read all the letters in the row between John Swinney and Douglas Alexander in full JOHN Swinney branded the Scottish Secretary “discourteous and disrespectful” in a scathing letter to the Prime Minister, correspondence released…

As far as Douglas Alexander is concerned, Scotland belongs militarily to the American Military Industial Complex and he is no doubt very well bribed by "lobbyists" to keep it that way.

Screenshot of a Tennessee Holler post on X questioning whether wealthy political figures care about everyday costs. The post quotes Aaron Rupar, who describes Donald Trump referring to multi-million-dollar sums as “peanuts” during an auction at Mar-a-Lago. Below is a video still showing Trump dressed in a tuxedo, holding a microphone, and speaking to an audience at what appears to be a formal evening event.

I'd say imagine Presidents Obama or Biden doing this, but we know they never would.

Then ‘gender critical’ transphobic activist-journalists drop headlines like this after years of replacing the word “people” with “ideology”….

Nobody should be surprised that trans people are upset!

TERFs barely bother with dog-whistles anymore, when talk of trans-extermination is so blatant! 😖

The way trans are being treated right now is so inhumane. This is the BBC. We are being suffocated. Has there been any news on getting to the Euro Court? @goodlawproject.bsky.social ? ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

“Open the door for the auld year
It is the pairtin-time
Open the door for the new year
And lat the bairn win hame.
Bundle your winter’d joy and grief
On the back o’ the year that’s dune
Open your hert for the new life
And lat the bairn come in.”

Poem for Hogmanay : William
Soutar

Some reasons...

1) Promised change, delivered more of the same.
2) Runs around in circles chasing a right wing vote that will never vote Labour.
3) Threw all the Socialists out of the party.
4) Pair of over-promoted charlatans who speak as though a toffee has stuck their top & bottom sets together.

Blow your nose, pull up your socks, and shut up. You don’t have to be a grim old stoic, either. Your life could be such fun. Now run along and enjoy yourself. And let’s try to make this a HAPPY new year.”

I Despise the Immigration Lies on UK News — Here’s the Reality YouTube video by John Nicolson

Immigration is a good thing. Why don’t journalists ever challenge the cowardly politicians who pretend otherwise? Why do they follow the racist narrative promoted by Reform & right wing tabloids? Here’s my take. Please watch & tell me whether you agree. youtu.be/6RaCQJ278qU

Immigration is good for us. So why is it so hard for politicians to say so. Here’s my take.

“I am proud to have scrapped the two-child limit,” #Starmer intoned yesterday “and lifted half a million children out of poverty.” Fascinating to hear he’s extremely proud of doing something he last year suspended seven of his MPs for voting for.”

Yet more evidence that #Reform voters don’t care about the #Farage anti Semitism revelations.

Grim reading for Labour.

A beautiful collection John, I’ve never seen anything like these, I knew about some of the standard bulb shaped, beautiful hand crafted baubles but never ones of animals and other objects. A lovely find indeed xx

“The Liz Truss Show review – hapless ravings from a cupboard : I don’t know if you’ve ever spent 40 seconds looking at Liz Truss wordlessly blinking and gulping, but it’s a genuinely disturbing sight. I wouldn’t wish it on anybody.”

The genius that was Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Died on this day in 1928 aged only 60. If he could only have known how revered he was to become in the century to come….

Sad to read the news about Stanley Baxter. He thought no one would love him if they knew he was gay. When he came out in his 90s he discovered a new generation loved him just as much. Here’s a wee piece I wrote for the @alloatiser Rest in peace Stanley. #ParliamoGlasgow #LGBT

I remember in 2015 Labour & LibDem activists posting nonsense about my new office set up. Lavish furniture claimed on expenses… (I’d bought second hand stuff at auction.) Employing my wife was another ludicrous bit of disinformation.

Facebook reminds me: here’s one of our lockdown staff meetings five years ago today. I was so proud of my amazing - and diverse - team. Majority women. Woman office manager. #LGBTQ + disabled + under 25 staff.

New poll points to a Labour collapse in Scotland. The Greens fighting it out with Reform for second place. @theSNP poised to win outright majority. But #Yes supporters need to vote!

Holyrood, the Senedd and the Green Surge Yesterday, the Herald ran with a new poll on their front page. Political Editor Andrew Learmonth wrote: “Reform UK is on course to return 22 MSPs at next year’s Holyrood election — making Nig…

No, I’m not “jubilant”. I’m merely summarising the poll. Quietly optimistic perhaps:

“SNP figures are, at least outwardly, jubilant. As former MP John Nicolson posted saying: “Huge SNP lead in latest poll. Labour has collapsed. Tories a distant fourth.” bellacaledonia.org.uk/2025/10/27/h...

More Labour Government sycophancy towards the Royal Family reports The @the-independent.com

They are following a damaging policy. Thanks goodness ScotGov has a better approach.
