Scotsman article on Wolfgang Abel's visit to Scotland - contain information that I have not previously released. archive.ph/dAhha

New Blog: The Fixer A diversion from the main focus of the series, and longer than I had first anticipated, but nonetheless interesting, to me at least, on the character of the man, the fixer, who made Wolfgang Abel’s work in Scotland possible. ayeright.scot/2025/01/17/t...

9 months in the making - thank the gods it's finished. nae mair decorating, ever.

Met up with a friend and colleague yesterday. We got to talking about the danger of big egos and the opportunism that runs parallel with them. She said she reckoned I had an ego so small it was almost undetectable. For me, that's a massive compliment. 🙋‍♀️

The Tinker Experiments research findings - why the silence? @ScotGovFairer @kaukabstewart https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4&t=1s

So who exactly is sitting on the Tinker Experiments research findings, who has more power than elected representatives to control the narrative? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZMjDfTeoQw&list=RDZZMjDfTeoQw&index=1

Am away tae light the stove and get settled doon in front o' the telly box.

The dreaded stomach bug has reached oor hoose. I hardly ever get these things but seems this one is particularly virulent. Ill all day yesterday with it and no much better the day. 🤮🤮

So, the burning question is - who is sitting on the Tinker Experiments report? Civil Servants, Ministers, the First Minister? @ScotGovFairer @kaukabstewart @ScotGovFM

The Equalities Minister told the media the report would be published in September -So where is it? How much longer must we wait? @ScotGovFairer @kaukabstewart...

Given their complicity in the wars on Gaza and Lebanon inc. Biden declaring himself a Zionist, I wouldn't have voted for the Democrats either.

1/ It's almost a year since I travelled to Canada to further research the trafficking of children to the colonies. The outcomes of the trip is what I wanted to discuss with the then Equalities Minister. https://vimeo.com/896856569

Just practising to see if I could make a butterfly in the colours of the Palestinian flag. What ya all think?

We're going to Glasgow in January to see the Cactus Blossoms. Himself wants to know where Italians go to eat in the city. None of the up market or buffet type places, just food like he cooks at home.

I would welcome a 'snap' election. I might even consider standing.

1/So, the reason I've not had an app for the rapid assessment stress test which I was referred for on 2 August by A&E and is supposed to happen within 2 weeks of referral is - I'm not on the list. Found this out by chasing it yesterday. @NHSTayside is a shambles.

Probably shouldnae have shifted the bedroom furniture aboot. Am away for a lie doon.

A collective noun for a group of butterflies is a kaleidoscope. Here's one I made today.

What's with all the fighter jets in the North East today? There are loads of them flying over.

I've just read that the YES bikers were refused entry to Parliament to sign the book of condolences because of how they were dressed. The people's parliament - well clearly just certain people.

It's that kind of night. Fire on and a good film bookmarked.

I am ashamed of the Scottish Government today.

Good speed to the folk in the cars bedecked with 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 who have just passed through Montrose and are clearly heading up to Aberdeen Airport.

Finally a DEC appeal for the death and destruction in Gaza and Lebanon. In comparison to other disaster appeals, It's been a long time coming. What/who could possibly have held it back? I already know the answer.

OMG the Cactus Blossoms are playing Celtic Connections on 30th January! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj7jJk8TPZk

An October 2020 blog post.

30 days to stop murdering the innocents of Palestine and Lebanon, to lift a siege that is starving those still wandering the ruins of Northern Gaza. 30 days during which time the elections in the US will be done and dusted. Business as usual for the arms trade and war mongers.

Despite never having met me, @AlexSalmond contacted me on the eve of my #LongWalkForJustice to wish me good speed. He was the *only* politician to contact me before and during the walk. May he RIP.

Closing down campaigning activities takes time and effort. I've just archived 10,125 emails. Felt the need to keep them given there are so many truth manipulators around these days.

Hey @samp74 look what I've just received. You and our Rowan meeting the man.

An oldie from my website. Wrote this before lockdown. The wind that blows.

Well, that's my website deleted. New chapter begins free from having to communicate with lickspittles and liars. Happy days.

Made a wee butterfly.

That's the Zio patch heart monitor off and packed in its wee box ready for analysis. Apart from an itch from the adhesive it's been a breeze wearing it for the past 14 days.

After the walk, a kind friend set up a GoFundMe page to help raise funds for a memorial for the trafficked children. As I'm withdrawing from campaigning the page will be closed and people who donated will be refunded....

As I said last week after the debacle at the parliament - I'm done. Being done includes closing down my website. If anyone want's to purchase my domain name http://ayeright.scot I'll donate what I get for it to my Gazan friend's project providing respite through play and art.

25th Anniversary Celebrations: I wonder if any MSP who had their family members in the public galleries in full knowledge that the 'Local Heroes' were put in side rooms to accommodate this would like to comment?

Many thanks to @HunterNorrie at Caledon Radio for the opportunity to share my thoughts this morning.

As with the #LongWalkForJustice I am hearing whispers that I am complaining about the Anniversary event simply to attack the current administration. This is not true. I never have and never will be a member of a political party. The below thread tells a bit about my 'politics'.

In the interest of transparency, here is my complaint vis the 25th Anniversary Event of the Scottish Parliament.

For National Poetry Day. I too shall go there soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMVt44DO2NQ&t=44s

Semantics, eh? My definition of a viewing room is a space from which an event can be viewed i.e. with an open view or through glass. Sitting in a 'broom cupboard' staring at a TV screen that didn't work doesn't fit that definition. What say you, folks?

1/ #TheLongWalkForJustice Back in January walked from Montrose to the Parliament seeking a meeting with the then Equalities Minister, Emma Roddick, to discuss the Trafficking of Gypsy Traveller children to the colonies and the wider Tinker Experiments - assimilation camps etc.

Preview is tonight 6.30pm - 8.30pm. The exhibition runs until 13th January. David has worked tirelessly to keep his great grandmother's legacy alive. He also was a great support to me during #TheLongWalkForJustice

October is the start of basket and other stuffs making for me. This year the wee Christmas gifts will be butterflies. 40 odd to be made so best get started. Oh and a few tatza plates too. It'll help fill the time while I wait for an apology.

So MSP's family members were indeed in the public galleries on Saturday. Funny that as I don't recall seeing them mentioned in the programme. That goes some way to explaining why the 'Local Heroes' were put in the broom cupboard though. #Nepotism

X informs me that there have been 96.8K impressions on my posts about the debacle at the Parliament on Saturday. I'm glad people are seeing how Scotland's 'Local Heroes' were mistreated.
