The Labour Party is meant to love its history. Here is one historical fact. 43% of Labour Prime Ministers have felt they need to have Peter Mandelson as part of their team; this tell's you something about their judgement & values.

Not to be a broken record, but why on earth is Ed Balls there interviewing his wife's work colleagues about a scandal involving the government department she currently runs?

But Sarwar et al scream constantly about the SNP 'ruin' of Scotland because they can't bear the truth. TABIS. We need to defend and cherish what we have and continue to strive to make things ever better.

The Labour benches have emptied as Keir Starmer fights for his political life. The Starmer Premiership is winding to an end. The only questions are how and when?

Starmer on the ropes. Labour Govts only come along occasionally in post-1945 Britain. Starmer is only the FOURTH Labour leader to win an overall majority from opposition. And only the THIRD Labour leader to win a majority after being in opposition for a full term. Starmer has blown his opportunity.

MRPs are such a helpful addition to out political discourse! Look here's a bunch with an SNP majority! Ah but here's one with not even an SNP + Green majority, but what it DOES have is the Lib Dems winning *three* North East List MSPs on 10% average constituency vote there, with 0 2021 MSPs! 🤔

Reform 'gateway drug to fascism' top Scots trade unionist claims to voters Roz Foyer, general secretary of the STUC, also warned mainstream politicians in 'last chance saloon' to deliver for working people.

Reform can’t cosplay as saviours of the working class whilst pledging to strip workers’ rights and cutting taxes for the rich.

We’ll protect workers – they’ll protect the profiteers. #STUC26

Listened to @bbcscotland phone in this morning, what struck me was the number of callers(who appeared as if they would usually vote for one of the UKs parties) were completely dumbfounded as to who they would vote for. They seemed completely at a loss given the shambles and corruption of UK politics

Channel 4 News likes to think it is alternative. But yet again in the football news section not one mention of the Scottish game. The thrilling Scottish Cup semi between Celtic & St. Mirren went unmentioned. Sadly typical of Londoncentric UK media. FAO @channel4news.bsky.social #c4News

Two men killed after wrong-way motorway crash near Kinross Police say a grey Ford Kuga was seen driving northbound on the southbound carriageway of the M90 at about 22:30 on Friday.

I live in Kinross, at the M90's J6, just north of which this crash occurred.

Just thinking about the road layouts and physical barriers around the J6 ramps, I simply can't see how you get onto the southbound carriageway driving north unless you do it on purpose and put effort into doing so.

Keir Starmer mocked as 'photo-op taken with WMD rather than Anas Sarwar' in Scotland KEIR Starmer has been mocked for choosing to have his photograph taken with a “weapon of mass destruction rather than stand beside Anas Sarwar”…

Keir Starmer visits Scotland for a photo-op with a weapon who isn't Anas Sarwar.

This is the first poll with a sample from April, someone needs to let the polling companies know there's an election on the 7th of May.

We've thus far had over three times more UK General Election polls with April fieldwork than Scottish and Welsh polls combined (13 v 3 + 1).

There won't be a UK General Election until 2029, maybe 2028.

Offord on the telly again talking about getting '800,000 economically inactive people back to work'.
