The Brits appear ready to shame the US news media into covering this, distracted as they are by gazing at their own navels ...

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.
Make it Both Votes SNP on the 7th of May to cap the price of essential food items.
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?
FM John Swinney has “politely” turned down an invitation from Donald Trump to attend a state banquet at the White House next week, the Scottish Government has confirmed. 👇
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.
Simply brilliant from @theSNP
Now there's a threat we can all get behind...

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?
LOL.
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.
Keep Walking The Walk,Mayor Mamdani.......

'If Scotland had control over its own immigration policy, we could put in place a system which would have human rights and justice at its heart rather than a plethora of conflicting rules that are a nightmare to navigate.'

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! 🤔
LABOUR’S £1 BILLION THREAT TO SCOTLAND’S NHS
Sarwar would slash £1 billion from NHS budgets new analysis has shown.
IFS analysis found that the Labour Party's implied growth rate for health spending was just 1.4% in the next parliament, compared to an average rate of 2.4% that the SNP set out 👇
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
Similarly, historians will retch at Zelensky’s treatment in the Oval Office & beyond. We all moved on to the next abomination without even stopping for sandwiches…
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
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 visits Scotland for a photo-op with a weapon who isn't Anas Sarwar.

The thing about it is that it is morally correct to try to assist those most effected by the spiralling cost of food.
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.
Streeting attacks SNP record on NHS because he can't match it
Wes Streeting has admitted that he is Unable to match the SNP's success in Scotland on Health
also Streeting and Zubir Ahmed(A Palimentry Under Secretary of State in the DHSC has been responsible for fabricated data on NHS Scotland 👇
Here is one to test your knowledge of Scotland, where is this and what is it? No cheating now!
This fro the IFS must surely expose the lies about NHS under Labour

Offord on the telly again talking about getting '800,000 economically inactive people back to work'.
High time journalists start properly interrogating this abject nonsense.
