‘Circular funded economy of government-funded lobbyists ...’ I like that.

Supporting ScotGov’s every move is a cottage industry now. If the price is right, all manner of money grabbing ‘charities’, academics and weak, column writing lickspittles will rock up to back them.

EXC: Questions about trust in public institutions - including the Scottish government - have been removed from this year's household survey

Govt says it's to make it 15 mins shorter and Q will be asked every other year, sources say results were worsening

On Wednesday ⁦Scottish Conservatives⁩ will bring a motion ⁦Scottish Parliament⁩ to repeal the Hate Crime Act, following its shambolic introduction 2 weeks ago. Will ⁦Scottish Labour⁩ & ⁦Scottish Lib Dems⁩ support us, or will they side with the SNP again? dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Vulnerable children in Scotland must be protected from damaging transgender ideology in the NHS.

My 2-min take in today’s Paisley Daily Express 👇
#CassReview

Bill Moon Billy Bragg Billy Bragg, lefty songwriter, actually claiming to know more about analysing medical data than a leading paediatrician who undertook a serious 4 year study - surely not?! Why on Earth didn't the Govt just appoint a real expert to mansplain the #CassReport in the first place?!

What did the SNP/Green clown show think would happen when they made us the highest taxed part of the UK? Scotland: soon to be a talentless wasteland.

Not sure which is funnier : Humza’s plummeting approval ratings or the fact only 1295 people downloaded their latest Indy paper😃

Humza urges against escalation after Iran attacks, only 99.999% of the world doesn’t know who he is and the remainder don’t care …

Anyone seen this 74 year old lady interviewed by BBC Reporting Scotland or STV News … or even mentioned by them?

Here’s GB News filling the gap (again). Two clips.

Aviemore Was in St Enochs centre last night back of 9. Out of nowhere about 20 kids in ski masks set about a guy going about his business with an absolute vengeance.

Never seen aggression like it and I've been about - society as we know it is gone.

This happened last night in a village just outside Aberdeen. Similar happened recently in the city & elsewhere.

Why are kids doing this? Well, adults used to keep them in check, but now adults are teaching mad notions instead. Did anyone think it wouldn’t affect their behaviour?

Checking if Sturgeon tat’s still available on Ebay. It is, including life size cardboard cutouts, candles, masks and pillows (handy for crying into after the General Election).

Then checked for Humza tat …👇😂

This has been going on for years, completely unchecked. Fair play to this copper for doing his job, despite a camera being thrust in his face.

This from Edinburgh. More from Aberdeen later. We shouldn’t be surprised. The wee darlings don’t understand right from wrong, see? Adults said so🤦🏻‍♀️

Youths seen throwing punches during 'horrifying' brawl onboard Scots bus dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-…

This, like everything else they do, needs thoroughly scrutinised. Who got the bikes and how have they cost £700 each?

‘SNP free bike pledge cost £5.3m but only three per cent of poor kids got one’ dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-…

Interesting in light of the rewriting of history about why sex was not included in the Hate Crime legislation. The working group was established during the bill process as a result of concerns about exclusion of sex, not because women wanted a separate piece of legislation.

Express: Edinburgh Nike conference had 'large impact on Covid transmission', says Welsh expert.

Never doubted it and suspect it’s one of the main reasons they deleted WhatsApps and ‘didn’t keep’ records of briefings. I hope they see the light of day.

Without a hint of irony, Val McDermid pontificates about misogyny suffered by Mother Nicola of the Immaculate Hate Crime Perception.

JK Rowling would have been a more apt example, especially this week. I guess she doesn’t need the spin.

‘Senior Scots police officers accused of organised crime gang leak’

First thought : Which ‘organised crime gang’ …?
