My daughter @islaratcliff.bsky.social has just released a single Autumn Leaves (Autumn I) from her forthcoming album which is a Scottish trad interpretation of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons published 300 years ago in 1725. Album is due out November islaratcliff.bandcamp.com/track/autumn...

Well who could have guessed which way this would have went. Corbyn is rancid but his supporters are toxic.

This the Britain that Reform want back: youtu.be/a6B_xauXu0Y?...

Don’t know why everybody is getting all pissed off about Tilly Norwood.

In the late 1980s Radio 1 was massively over-represented by Kershaws despite Kershaws making up just 0.05% of the broadcasting industry. 100% of them turned out to be very problematic indeed.

It continues to amaze me that, time after time, expressions of sorrow, solidarity and determination to stand against hate and violence are being made by politicians on X/Twitter, a social media site which now promotes hate and violence by design. What will it take for them to leave?

Michelle Mone continues to sit in the House of Lords, entitled to take taxpayer's money and vote on our laws. Nobody ever voted her in, and we have no way to get her out. She's a symbol of everything wrong with the undemocratic Lords, and shows why it must finally be scrapped.

Does that make Nigel Farage responsible when immigrants get attacked by racists?

The thing that the terfs haven’t thought about is trans men, who are going to get all sorts of grief now, along with women who don’t confirm to imposed gender ideals and stereotypes. NHS Fife staff told to use toilets based on 'sex at birth' www.bbc.com/news/article...

Top Tip! If you get caught in a hotel room with a shit load of narcotics, don't point at the stash when you have your photos taken. www.bbc.com/news/article...

'Farage Boats' is a useful term and should be normalised.

The SNP tell us that Reform are an English problem and that Indy is the only solution. This is disingenuous anglophobic bollocks. They won’t tell you that a foreign bank would set our interest and mortgage rates, or about backstop customs & trade tariffs with our biggest customer & supplier.

If you ask me, I can give you several good reasons not to vote Reform. Please don’t ask me to give you several good reasons to vote Labour. We are in a shit impasse where the sell seems to be “vote for us we’re the least bad option”. SP26 is going to be a bloodbath for sLab.

Decriminalisation is long overdue. Abortion rights are health care and nobody should be deterred or risk being criminalised for it. www.heraldscotland.com/news/2549777...

Not sure the man responsible for this poster is best placed to lecture anyone else on taking politics “into the gutter”.

Siri, show me how AI is killing journalism. www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/1540133...

The Hack is fucking excellent. As much as I despise Tommy Sheridan, the part on him is fantastic.

I’d say thoughts and prayers, but in this instance it would be wholly insensitive. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c6...

Inspired by the Nathan Gill bribery story I've updated my avatar.

Hopefully they see it through this time. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...

Reminds me of that time Helen Daniels painted Mrs Mangle.

“quite extraordinary, Dana International there” aye right you are mr bondage basement. #TOTP

This is where hurty words lead. They make a safe place for the worst kind of bigots. Drove through Bowling today, the flag shaggers have been out. If folk put them up near me I’m taking them straight back down. Police investigate pole thrown through mosque window www.bbc.com/news/article...

“Ted, have you seen Celia, my favourite cygnet, on the lake recently?”

Hi John, I would take your position on infringements more credibly if you hadn't been behind the failed named person scheme, the pilot named person being exposed as a female paedophile teacher. www.scotsman.com/news/politic...

Have uncovered incontrovertable proof of immigrants repeatedly eating spit roasted swans: The offenders are called Edward Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, son of a German immigrant and his Danish wife Alexandra. More on this breaking news story as I get it www.royal-menus.com/kings-britai...

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

As much as I was fascinated by the blatant con and enigmatic Miranda I’m glad justice is finally catching up with this evil man. www.fox13now.com/news/crime/n...

Maybe his rejection of science explains his love of beer and fags.

DPD have contacted me to say my parcel will be delayed for a day for unspecified sorting issue. Their solution is to offer me a paid for VIP service. How about as goodwill for delaying my parcel for 2 extra days so far you give me the fucking VIP service for free?

The good news is drink deaths are down, the bad news is that this is because the MUP is pushing self-medicating mentally hurting people onto cheap drugs instead. Scottish alcohol deaths at lowest rate for five years www.bbc.com/news/article...

I think I might be becoming a Lib Dem.

We all got the bunting up for ‘Rappy-tues’?

Every famous scientist and inventor was almost certainly autistic, Einstein, Tesla, Newton…

Ed Davey, "I'm afraid Nigel Farage should be apologising for helping cause this problem in the first place" "Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people" -Maybe we should call them Farage's Brexit Boats

Stuck my head into Twitter for a wee minute there... holy moly.

I guess that's what they want us to think

Got some tunes on. Roddy was just the coolest bloke on earth. youtu.be/2atWm2ZabJw?...

I am no Royalist, but when I read about John Davidson the tourettes guy meeting the Queen, the actual Queen, I can't help but think she was a decent person at her core.

#totp Thats just the tune to groovy train?

#totp never heard this one in my life.

I wouldn't be at all disappointed to see annoying bosh prick chucked off of strictly, my only concern is that they might replace him with Charlie Veitch or Neil Oliver.

Glad that Gov. Gavin Newsom is up for the fight and understands the danger.

As much as I despise Ash Regan, this looks civilised and progressive. Regans misunderstand over ‘underground’ is still one of my favourite political moments of the year.

Windsor Castle Tuesday night. Four of us arrested for 'malicious communications'. Now released. www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8V4...
