Young lass interviewed on BBC. She flew over specially from Connecticut to file past a coffin. She is in floods of tears on camera. That's all I can tell you because my husband grabbed the doofer muttered "I can't take this shite" and turned off the telly 🤣
"There's the Duke of Cambridge making his way into the Robing Room" Sick of it. I can't wait for

Hands up if you think Boris Johnson should be arrested and questioned a la Nicola Sturgeon style, and it plastered all over every newspaper and news channel.
I want to see his teabags confiscated and his clicky pens examined for bugs
NEW: Italy's secret intelligence service was monitoring Lebedevs' luxury villa when Boris Johnson visited in April 2018 because they believed it was being used for espionage activities,
@C4Dispatches
documentary claims.
@ABridgen
Oh be quiet. Ordered to pay £800k, evicted from your home, branded abusive, arrogant, aggressive, and dishonest yet we are supposed to believe you. How you are still an MP is a complete mystery
Now that Johnson is OUT, can we please resurrect the inquiry into the Russia report, Johnson's Russian pals, donors, and connections with Lebedevs junior and senior?
@PippaCrerar
I recall watching
#PoliticsLive
the other day when
@MhairiBlack
F word speech was discussed and those on the panel scoffed. They should watch it again and then we can ask the very same question. Are we moving to a fascist dictatorship? Most definitely
Scottish Hospitatlity group says first weekend with PP was an "unmitigated disaster" They turned folks away as no passports or had forged passports. Forgive me but is that not the whole point.? So it was a success then.

has covered this protest, yet it's big news, especially in light of this
Is this a climate story or a political story? Both, I reckon. Why isn't it covered, because it is damning of Sunaks government of course
The Guardian removes its cartoon of Richard Sharp because of antisemitic tones. The paper makes a public apology and it gets a spread on the BBC website.
I don't remember the cartoons of a beheaded Nicola Sturgeon or crucified Humza, Nicola, and Peter being taken down or any
I had to go check the BBC website, both UK, Scottish and Politics pages. Even checked the live feeds for the covid inquiries and this story has NOT been reported by

This is a disgrace and a clear deliberate omission

So I never realised Strictly winner Hamza Yassin arrived aged 8 from Sudan, moved to Scotland and lived in his car hoping to become a wildlife photographer. What an amazing journey he has been on. His success will annoy all the right people☺️☺️☺️

:
“Is the Prime Minister worried that he’s projected to be the first Conservative Party leader to lose a general election to a fellow Thatcherite?”
Scotland deserves better than Starmer and Sunak’s broken Thatcherite consensus.
A Tory minister ducking questions comes as no surprise but this is getting ridiculous. No answers again on the secret State of the Union report. Time for a rethink of the Leader of the House of Commons role.
He handed back his MBE in January over the UK's complicity in the Palestinian genocide, at the same time as grasping Jackie Baillie accepted her Damehood from Princess Anne.
Be more Joe Grant and less Jackie Baillie
I have a wee soft dream. Wouldn't it be grand if Mark Drakeford and Nicola Sturgeon held a joint presser and stood at a podium and jointly denounced the UK gov. We have singly seen them call them out but a true joint warts n all exposé is just what we need.
Breaking news? Have they staked out her house for a week just to publish exactly the same comment she made last Sunday?
This I believe is to steer you away from discussing the disaster in Westminster.
Nicola puts out a belter of a tweet and lo and behold Isla Bryson trends. If you are not convinced already of the army of trolls and bots created to work against her, the SNP and indy, then you are not paying attention
6 Scottish beaches have been named amongst the best in the UK. Only those with water quality excellent were considered. I thought the

1.062 million retired before age 65. I'm one of them so the Daily Heil can fuck off calling me workshy and if it thinks I am going back to work for the good of the economy, they can fuck off some more.
Lisa Nandy sayinh they're going after rip off ticket touts while multiple Labour MPs and ministers including herself, scooped up Taylor Swift tickets worth £1660 in each case, has gotta be the joke of the day, and I've not even had my lunch yet
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
See old folks in their 70s on TV news saying put independence on the back burner and concentrate on other stuff. I find them selfish b'stards. They're already collecting their pensions, they maybe have 10 years left. they don't even consider their kids and grandkids future.
@ukiswitheu
Fantastic
@Channel4News
I apologise because I don't remember seeing Gary on TV before. Johnson hugely uncomfortable and the end piece spoke volumes, he squirmed like a worm on a hook.
Please resist interference from the charlatans

Can someone explain to me simply why Ros Atkins, BBC news analyst can produce this video pointing out that of course Brexit is a factor, yet high profile BBC politics employee

Why
@BBCNews
?
I'm seeing literally hundreds, thousands perhaps of tweets like this expressing thanks for

and its health experts guidance and empathy.
Have you seen anything similar on the Westminster response to the pandemic? No
I remember the lock downs. I had my mum die in a care home. I watched

I'm eternally grateful they were there for us in Scotland
Watch this! "Why are we not on par with Scotland"
"I'm not sure we should be taking lessons from Scotland on how to run the NHS"
Says ........ wait for it...... the PRIVATE GP
@GMB
should have an NHS GP on, why didn't they. The debate is therefore pretty meaningless
I am watching
@STVNews
I am disgusted frankly. Every single story is SNP Bad, Scotgov not working. The majority does believe Scot Gov and SNP works for Scotland. Approval rates speak for that and this blanket derision is disgraceful.
Whoah,

Get it right round ye. It's coming for aw that
🔍 This week Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar told the public:
"Read my lips. No austerity under Labour".
🤦 Today, Labour are set to announce more austerity of at least £18 billion.
🥀 Labour can't be trusted to stand up for Scotland's interests.
I'm seeing a lot of tweets from England complaining that BBC is not covering the Rejoin March.
We know their pain, Scotland, don't we?
England recently wakening up to how partisan
@BBCNews
really is.
Propaganda by omission is a BBC speciality
This is far worse than the iPad issue caused by an error but Matheson was forced to resign.
Hey
@Douglas4Moray
You led the cheers for Matheson's scalp, let's hear you call for Donelan to resign
Matheson paid the bill, why are we paying for this. How much was it?
BREAKING: Humza Yousef denies concealing Hamas within Edinburgh's extensive network of underground tunnels. We understand BBC correspondent Glenn Campbell has uncovered a cache of chickpeas from an illegal Hamas falafel stall. Douglas Ross has called for the FM's resignation.
Not a word on
@BBCScotlandNews
or
@BBCNews
web pages.
It is a deliberate news blackout by BBC
@Ofcom
on anything positive involving Scotland's elected First Minister.
Ross is transparent. He hates Nicola, it's obvious, churlish, very childish and unprofessional. The others may disagree but it doesn't get too personal.
Ross is the worst, most ill prepared infantile politician in my memory. Sign of a politician promoted way above his abilities.
I didn't watch
#BBCQT
but fair to say the appearance of Kate Andrews has kicked a hornet's nest as she is yet another IEA Tufton Street representative

apologise to the women who were forced to give up their babies for adoption. Very touching indeed, Nicola was visibly upset.
The claims of "destroyer of women's rights" is purely political schtick.
She will be sadly missed
(1) The calls for Nicola to be suspended are keeping the smear alive. Imagine if for "balance" MSM reported that the alleged Tory MP rapist, who has been bailed yet again still has the whip and continues to work in his constituency, including with children
This is a variation on the Aluster Jack reveal, that he didn't want Nicola Surgeon at COBRA or included in discussions because he feared she would "grandstand" what he meant to say is NS would show them up as the charlatans and incompetents they are
Wow! Hugo Keith asks about communication with the devolved governments.
Michael Gove first dismisses concerns from Mark Drakeford who repeated asked for information.
Then Michael Gove says the Scottish government'ss responses and criticisms may have been politically inclined
My neighbour with bunting on the path to her front door has now put two Union Jack's in her window.
In another twist a friend told me she was in M&S listening to 2 women in line who had bought new frocks to watch the coronation on the telly.
What is wrong with these people?
Oh look, the closure of Portobello beach on the 11th July was not in fact caused by sewage. The bacteria was likely due to gull and dog faeces.
Bet you won't hear that on the BBC
Douglas Alexander has accepted £1,000 from Labour Friends of Israel.
He’s also buddies with the abhorrent, former Israeli Government spokesman - Mark Regev.
@PippaCrerar
Shitting himself. He knows he doesn't have the full support of his backbenchers, doesn't want many to abstain as it looks bad. Knows he would be found guilty as charged. If you are innocent you do NOT go to these lengths to avoid an inquiry
Let's see the faithful trolls respond
@MrJohnNicolson
So as well as calling a halt to any imminent elevation to the HoL, this also suggests she broke the ministerial code. Should she be referred to the Standards Committee
Young Scottish tory on

saying he would vote for Penny Mordaunt because "she is good at arguing down the SNP" Whaaaat, I've never heard her say diddly squat on SNP
#JohnsonTheCorruptPM
It really doesn't matter if his sister broadcasts propaganda from LBC, nor does it matter that Fabricant says he is a jolly nice fellow or a host of automaton ministers sell their souls each day on TV defending him.
We know, the public knows he is corrupt
Watching STV News. Yes, I agree there's always room for improvement in Scotland, but my husband and I turned to each other and honestly, we are toiling to remember the last time a good Scotland or
@scotgov
story was broadcast.
Why do Scots put up with this hyper criticism
439 deaths today, 409 of them in England. That's the highest number since Feb 2021 I think.
Where are Johnson's medical advisors? Van Tam has cut himself loose but where are Whitty and Valance? Are they honestly OK with lifting all restrictions or have they been silenced.
Full throttle Brexit unleashed in next couple of days. Shambolic Covid response from England. A PM absent most of the time. Scotland unable to create it's own furlough scheme.
Surely there can't be many Scots left that want to remain in UK?
@joshsimonstweet
Half Scottish🤦♀️so is Trump mate but we don't care much for him. Far from this condescending guff calming the situation, you are fanning the flames. As you are "half Scottish" you should realise we neither like being talked down to nor patronised.

Everyone should watch this. Despite explaining to the thick as bricks police that the woman lost family in the Holocaust, they go ahead and arrest her. I hope that female PC gets her jotters.
Little Jewish woman opposing genocide is unmasked by the MetPolice as a little Jewish woman opposing genocide.
English police arrest daughter of holocaust survivors for protesting against mass slaughter.
Shit you can’t make up.
Does anyone honestly think William selling the Big Issue was really supposed to be undercover and anonymous? If you do you might want to give your head a wobble
Does anyone amongst the fence sitters or the most unionist of unionists, Nicola haters, care to admit that oor media has an anti indy, anti Nicola, anti SNP, anti Scottish agenda?
Watching Sally "f*cker" Magnussen it's pretty apparent to anyone watching, or is it just me
Wait until Carol finds out how obsessive the Mail, The Express, The Sun, The Telegraph, The Mirror, the Spectator, The Independent, The Times was/is about Nicola Sturgeon, it'll blow her mind.
Just had words with one of my neighbours who chapped the door over something innocuous. He likes to have a pop at the SNP when he speaks to me. I seldom bite but today I did. He started the conversation and I finished it 🤣
Sarwar got a good roasting on BBC over Diane Abbot. However, listen to him attempt to separate the SEC from the NEC. If the SEC selects candidates in Scotland can he explain why 3 women from London and Kent are the best candidates for Scottish constituencies?
@AnasSarwar
@helenmallam
I love this bit. While she is having her tantrum and wasting police time, the veteran calmly and without a word, slips into camera. Pretty powerful
The tweets from those doubting numbers at the
#ScottishIndependence
rally. Journalists too. Why is it important for them to deny the numbers? Is it because they are frightened of people-powered democracy? Make no mistake about it, the rally was participatory democracy in action.
"While we struggle to heat our homes, we have to pay for your parade."
During his visit to Cardiff today, King Charles was heckled over taxpayers' money.
Latest:
Glenn just said it is surprising a party that's been in power 15 years is still winning elections and winning them well. I bet that was really hard to utter.
The editor of the Sunday Mail tweeting a defense at 7.45pm on Hogmanay implies to me their original "scoop" has damaged the paper rather than the Finance Minister.
5 times Martin Geissler asked Stephen Kerr if he would retract or did he regret his words on Humza's "motivations" for UNWRA funding. Kerr eventually says he doesn't regret his words.
He has the bloody nerve to talk about grown- up politics

We spent the last 3 hours swearing into Twitter over the honours list. Now we learn he is stepping down because he was found by the Privileges Committee to have misled Parly and a suspension of more than 10 days was recommended.

This Russian scandal is getting a bit too close for comfort. Of course the best way to deflect from it is to walk out the interview...... said no one ever. He just signaled the biggest flashiest red light ever.

Took a run up to Blairgowrie this morning, where I will soon be moving to permanently. I saw several Saltire's flying in gardens. Some of them might be there just for the footie but I saw a big beautiful Yes flag billowing on a pole onn the way out of town. Lovely stuff
People said
@ScotGovFM
was wrong to seek a ruling on a referendum from the Supreme Court. I think today's poll proves it was a smart move.
The voluntary union facade is now obliterated and scales have fallen from Scottish eyes
