Does Salmond & his ego somehow see him riding back into the SNP to take over? Does he really think either the MSPs, MPs or members would tolerate that? I doubt if even he is that lacking in self awareness, what a vindictive shit he is

Growing up in a family of political activists & listening to nitpicking arguments I always swore I would never join a political party, decided that it’s time to put my money where my mouth is, husband & I just joined the SNP

Hoyle really is scum, a weak, cowardly man whose support for Israel & pride in his father setting up Labour Friends of Israel is more important than genocide, whose desire for a seat in the HoL outweighs any morality #YouYesYet #SNP2Independence24

Given the events of last week, the SNP's Stephen Flynn asks the speaker of the House of Commons if he'll grant an emergency debate (called an SO24 debate) on the subject Despite the fact that Lindsay Hoyle promised one when he made his apology last week, he now says no.

You’re probably unaware that the Labour candidate is a former Lambeth councillor married to the man who brought down Corbyn & installed Starmer, she claims to be local because they sold up & moved to Lanark, Ross is fromLarkhall & genuinely local #VoteSNP

So from what I can see so far Rachel Reeves is cutting winter fuel payments, scrapping the plan to cap adult social care charges & she’ll be raising taxes & cutting benefits in October, wonder if @AnasSarwar will surface to explain why he called this change?

Very admirable of Fergus Ewing but it would be nice if he occasionally chose to represent the SNP constituents who elected him on the SNPs mandate rather than his Tory constituents whose mandate was rejected

Thank you so much, Mr Mayor, for extending free school meals across London for another year. Now every child in the city, whatever their circumstances, will have access to nutritious food, helping them to thrive. It takes real courage to stand alone and blaze a trail, and Sadiq's

We all knew not to believe Starmer’s BS about improving devolution but he proved it beyond all doubt today when he & the bulk of the Labour Party abstained on section 35, then they wonder why we don’t vote for them

I’m starting to suspect that some of the usual suspects who claim to be pro Indy but are trying to bring Humza Yousaf down aren’t just motivated by him not being AS but can’t stand the thought that a non Christian brown man is going to bring us independence

Cancer’s not something I would wish on anyone, even King Charles, & it’s good it was picked up during his prostate exam but how many men are waiting for that same prostate exam? How many won’t have a cancer discovered until it’s too late?

And one of those candidates standing on Starmer’s manifesto will be Leah Stalker so why is her wife Fiona Stalker conducting political interviews on BBC Scotland? When Elizabeth Quigley married John Swinney years ago she was removed from political reporting

In the context of a UK general election there is no Scottish Labour. There is only Labour. Every Labour MSP will be campaigning for Keir Starmer's manifesto. That, and only that, is what they should be questioned on. Why? Because that's what they're urging you to vote for.
