Great to see Stephen Gethins back with a proper majority.

So many people on the doorstep, must be a hell of a step>

Glued to the Scottish election results....

Among countless other ravings, Trump can't seem to remember which Presidential opponent was which. Time the Republicans located a spine.

7/7 Septle. 😱

6/8 Septle. 🤔

Blew wordle by picking 3 wrong first letters!

Certainly be sure to vote. But not for this pile of entitled chancers.

Septle bonus 4/7. At the 3rd attempt!

Presumably Trump, as the principal paymaster, could rein Netanyahu in?

At a time of great peril, the last two men I want in charge of the future are Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth!

5/8 Septle. 😕

Since he lies about everything else, why should we believe Trump on the Iranian peace process?

4/6 Wordle. 🙄

Of course anti semitism is abhorrent. And Islamaphobia. And any demonisation of UK minorities. But none should be used to outlaw peaceful protest.

Septle bonus 4/7.

5/8 Septle.

If you want disappointed by a job lot of charlatans, vote Reform. My column in today's Sunday National.

Now I understand the sheer terror felt by Jewish UK residents. #GoldersGreenstabbings. As horrific as it is random.

'Even members of Starmer’s cabinet seem to be throwing in what’s left of the towel. Several have chosen to damn the boss with the faintest of praise, ­others seem to be ­jettisoning any baggage which might prove ­problematic.' Ruth Wishart, via The National archive.is/nHLqT

Malcolm Offord, Reform's Scottish leader, bragged about his six houses on STV. Most voters would be happy to take one off his hands. Especially the homeless.

A "voluntary" union is not where one party is essentially trapped.

Septle bonus 4/7. 🙂

Messed up Wordle despite living in the wilds!

Septle 4/8. 🙂

· Jeez. STV leaders' debate. All blokes again

Why do unionists think a party born to seek independence is somehow in dereliction of duty if it does just that?

Quite extraordinary that the other 'appointable' candidate for the Washington gig was the former Tory chancellor George Osborne!

Post If McSweeney believed any lies by Mandelson would be unveiled by the FDO or developed vetting, why did the latter post date the appointment?

I might have to start watching 60 minutes again.

What a useful smokescreen ongoing police work has become.

Septle bonus 7/7. 😱

Well at least no need to "grow"an ear back given that the shooter was on a different floor.

4/8 Septle. 😊

5/6 Wordle. 😬

Media talks of shock at Hilton shooter. In a nation which cherishes gun ownership. Where half the guests will have been subjected to gun drills at school. Which has a madman for a President.

6/6 Wordle. And only after help from a Bluesky friend. 🥵
