I love living in non-independent Scotland, where a UK Labour spokesperson responds to a Scottish Labour leader's criticism with "nonsense. look at the great things we are doing in England"

i'm counting how many times he can say Scotland in a sentence and then seeing if he can beat that record

If there isn't a single question about Sarwar's own friendship with Mandelson during this press conference, we just need to abolish the entire Scottish press pack and start again, so don't let me down folks

i think sarwar just said "Scotland" 20 times in as many seconds

"Kier Starmer must resign over a decision I supported and celebrated" is the purest distillation of Anas Sarwar, an absolute worm of a man

well, that's fucking sickening

People talk about Holyrood like an abomination but look at this, this is art

i lived there for 7 years and it really really depends on your definition of "fun" great if you want to do outdoorsy stuff (beach, skating, cycling, hiking), but otherwise earns its reputation as the city that fun forgot

neurodivergent hell: am on a train and the two women sat opposite me at the four person table have just applied different, conflicting perfumes
