"The hounding of Angela Rayner is outrageous: brutal, snobbish and completely out of proportion to any mistake she may (or may not) have made. The sums are tiny & the issue has always been a matter of public confusion." Matthew Parris.

The Tory Russian connection. Narayana Murty, father-in-law to @RishiSunak & father of Akshata. He founded Infosys which Sunak's wife has £500 million in shares in & which is still actively working in Putin's Russia. And here he is with Putin. #ToryRussianConnection

What a small & ambitious self-governing country can achieve when it wants to. Impressive from the Faroe Islands which has a population of 54,557 people.

Today, the Faroe Islands 4. sub-sea tunnel opened. This new sub-sea #tunnel connects the islands of Sandoy and Streymoy and is 11 km. An unforgettable experience to sail the last trip between the islands today and be able to drive home. A step forward for the #FaroeIslands .

The brilliant writer @cbrookmyre is on #bbcqt & summarises superbly Boris Johnson saying: "Johnson has never faced adverse consequences for his actions; even when he's been sacked. He has continually failed upwards."

Over 35 mins into #BBC #Newsnight 's discussion on how the BBC reflects or doesn't reflect the diversity of the UK. Not ONE SINGLE reference by @maitlis or any of her guests to Scotland, Wales & N Ireland. Kind of makes the point abt how the Londoncentric BBC fails so many of us.

"Douglas Ross has repeatedly called for the resignation of First Minister Nicola Sturgeon over allegations she may have broken the Ministerial Code. However, it emerged that the entire UK government is in breach of its own [Ministerial] Code."

Surely it is up to the people of Scotland what the next general election is about?

Whatever your politics in Scotland & the UK you have to feel for Humza Yousaf as a fellow human being worrying abt his family. Championing our common humanity is what is missing from too much of our politics. And why has Rishi Sunak or James Cleverly not had the decency to phone?

"I may be First Minister of Scotland, but in this situation I feel powerless" Scotland's First Minister, Humza Yousaf, tells @KathrynSamsonC4 he feels "helpless" watching his in-laws who are trapped in Gaza.

George Galloway was "born into poverty" in Dundee claims #wato wrongly. All part of the Galloway self-created myth. His father was a respected secondary school teacher & they lived in a very nice semi in St Mary's five minutes from where I lived.

The UK Royal Family have not only strayed into the Scottish independence debate but democratic politics. To add to that they have encroached into media control & as a result contributed to a bigger story. The Royals need to butt out of political life in Scotland & the UK.

Kensington Palace have said we were stopped from airing the footage we filmed of Mr Brown in the grounds of Holyrood Palace - not because of sensitivities - but because they claim #C4News was trespassing. Our team were in public place outside gates.
