             Faiza Shaheen has a PhD, was a visiting professor at the LSE, has published a book, headed up a think tank and is now the executive director of another one. But for #bbcqt she’s still an ‘activist’. See how it works?

             Scotland's international development work is helping to transform lives in our partner countries. First Minister @JohnSwinney reflected on his recent visit to Malawi and Zambia, where he saw the impact of health, equalities and climate justice projects supported by @ScotGov.

             This is incredibly damning. Reform UK councillor defects to Conservatives. 
           NEW: Dartford Borough Counillor James Buchan has defected from Reform to the Conservatives. In a statement he warned "the more I saw of Reform the more uncomfortable i felt" adding that Reform has "neither the experience or ambition" to represent real families

             I worked in BBC News for years. When it frames guests on the Left (Faiza Shaheen) as “activists” (undermining them) & those on the Right as “academics” (boosting them) it’s usually a subconscious - not deliberate - decision; providing a candid insight into its institutional bias

             That’s all 3 councillors in Stirling East are now SNP . Quite an achievement in a ward that was once a Labour stronghold hold . It also means that working with the Green and the Independent councillor we hope to form a SNP administration in Stirling .

             Not good enough, this is a serious matter which needs urgently addressed by Labour. Fishing and coastal communities in my constituency and across Scotland deserve better than pocket change from this fund @SFF @SWFPA @SeafoodScottish @theSNP @JohnSwinney
          
           Labour have failed to respond to Scottish Government concerns about an 'utterly inequitable' fishing fund that will be delivered almost entirely to English communities, John Swinney has said

            @marcuscarslaw1 The small % of money is carried forward into this year. No money is lost. There is always a small carry-forward because Scottish Government can’t risk going over budget. It is the Daily Record being deliberately misleading. Again.

            @johnadgrady @ScottishLabour You fckn hypocrite. Which one of your councils was it again that didn't spend their budget? Labour are responsible for the mess the Country is in. If there is an emergency this winter would you rather there was no money and it's only October by the way.
