Question to the BMA doctors planning to go on strike again. Are you there for patients or for yourselves.?

Trump thinks Russia isn’t a threat. Tells you everything. The USA has sided with a despot. No surprise I guess. America has one too.

Who did you know at school, college or uni that became famous?Me:Sheena Easton and Peter Mullan.

Even as a Tory I must admit Reform MPs are devoted to serving their constituencies. For example Lee Anderson selling his ‘funny’ 30p football shirts in Ashdown & Nigel Farage’s outstanding work in Clacton. Oh & here is Richard Tice working hard in his constituency of Skegness. 📃

What a great win for Edinburgh Rugby. 👏👏👏

America’s economy is at the mercy of crony capitalism on.ft.com/4puQYe6

Russia’s threat to the UK and Europe has been revealed. Remind me what Farage and his colleagues have said in favour of Russia. Whatever Farage calls his latest party, it is a friend to foes, not for the security of the UK.

Farage is rattled. Good.

Edinburgh city centre looks so amazing. A city that does Xmas well. Love living here.

Get a grip Keir. All the good stuff you are doing is being drowned out. I waited such a long time for a Labour govt and I want it to continue to make all the parts of the UK a better place.🙏

It’s fine really rich actors bug off and then lecture us about constitutional arrangements. No understanding of the impact of the harm inflicted on our vital services by the SNP .

Farage should never become PM. He would never govern for all our people. I genuinely have never heard a teenager in the age before social media making the hissing sound of gas to a fellow Jewish pupil.See him.

In today’s Russian papers there’s scepticism over the current round of diplomacy. One paper: “The European-Ukrainian gang will ‘correct’ Trump’s plan so that it’s unacceptable for Russia.” Another: “I don’t think the Special Military Operation will end this year.” #ReadingRussia

Stand with Ukraine. Why? Because Putin launched an illegal invasion of the country. Russia continues to kill innocent Ukrainian civilians and destroy its infrastructure. Yet Trump wants to reward the aggressor. Why?

Farage?

Can you help? Which UK politicians hosted shows or were regular guests on RT? Russia Today. Alex Salmond and who else?

Anas Sarwar praises 'brave' Shabana Mahmood over immigration and asylum crackdown.

Dear folks around the UK. Reform is a party of opportunists, racists, liars and now traitors. Get them in the bin of politics. They don’t give a shit about those who need the welfare state. Do yourselves a favour and turn your back to them.

Is it just me who is horrified by Trump’s bullying of Ukraine?

The Covid inquiry confirms what we in Scotland knew already: President Sturgeon called all the shots.

Russia says it isn’t mapping UK under sea cables. It is and it is focused on exploiting the snp govt. weakness on defence matters

Did Glasgow Warriors need Duhan, Darcy or Kinghorn to win club rugby championships? No they didn’t. So why does Gregor Townsend overlook the Glasgow players?

Scotland back in the football World Cup. Yay!!!!!!

Good news - Edinburgh South West has just landed £376,086 in funding from The National Lottery Community Fund. Networking Key Services Ltd. - £19,875 grant. FOUR SQUARE (SCOTLAND) - £152,125 grant. The Welcoming Association - £189,086 grant. Rare-Breed Men Tribe (SCIO) - £6,000 grant.

A thoroughly depressing defeat to Argentina. Again, Scotland went into reverse in the second half. Thanks Gregor but it’s time to go.

🚨Our BBC is under attack 🚨 We can't let those that want to see it torn up & replaced by the likes of GBNews or Fox win. Sign the open letter now to demand the new BBC boss is someone that will protect the BBC, not let its enemies tear it down: 38d.gs/2sa8

I wish someone would invent trustworthy social media. Anyone in the UK willing to give it a try?

If there’s supposed to be a mastermind on the pay roll of No. 10, he isn’t doing a great job. Get a grip Keir. Thanks.

The President of America didn’t suffer harm after the Panorama doc. He won. Stand by the bbc.

If you've ever needed a reason to rally behind the BBC then this is it.

Oh how the rightwing are rejoicing. Trump, Farage, the Telegraph and the Tories. That makes the case for me to defend the BBC. Mistakes have happened but most editorial decisions are correct. Ask yourself what will replace the BBC if it goes.

Honoured to stand on the High Street in Edinburgh today for the Remembrance Day service. A powerful reminder of courage, sacrifice, and gratitude. 🌺

Yesterday evening, I was deeply honoured to receive @sarcoma.org.uk's “Shining Star” award, recognising my office's commitment to advancing research and improving care for sarcoma patients since my election in July 2024.

Russian and American oligarchs were enabled by their nations to get mega rich. But one country let them take control of democracy. While the other smashed opposing voices.

Gambling ads are everywhere. The companies claim they care about players. They don’t . The chancellor needs to tax them because their profits are huge and because of the human price .

Vote Farage. Get Trump, Vance, Musk and the rest of the tech Mafia. Stand for the Uk. For me that means vote Labour.

The tech oligarchs don’t believe in democracy nor respect those they helped to be in power. Please watch Panorma on the Beeb. Vance is their useful idiot.

The Edinburgh tram consultation runs for another couple of weeks. Regardless of which route you favour, there's no doubt improving accessibility for people who live in outlying areas of the city brings opportunities to those who live there. consultationhub.edinburgh.gov.uk/sfc/tram-nor...

’honest’ John by name, but Dishonest John by nature

True. And we’re bored with the snp blaming Westminster for their own failures. Vote Labour. We need change.

We face the All Blacks at Murrayfield. Let’s hope we put on a better show than Ireland.

My thoughts are with those stabbed on a train in Cambridgeshire.

Well done Dobie. Well deserved Man of the Match.

Yes the shopfitters from hell continue to bang and drill.
