I’m basically not really using this anymore folks. I will still keep using it a little, I love the connections I’ve made on it & how good it used to be for news & comment and kind of feel I need to keep for work but now anything associated with Musk gives me the biggest ick so…

What a brilliant initiative!.
🍺 Pint with your MP! 🍻. Last night I had my first “Pint & Politics” event. It’s an opportunity to get together over a drink and discuss politics - local, national and international. Some great convos and an opportunity to talk to people about how I try to represent their voices

The proposed cuts to mental health services are not just ill thought through, they are self defeating. Early intervention & prevention services are being cut with decision makers and officers not realising that they will just make the situation worse.

Threatened cuts to Edinburgh's mental health services will cost more than they save, health bosses have been warned.

The advantage of being on holiday is you get to catch people like @ChrisMurrayMP talking passionately about the mental health crisis we currently find ourselves in.

Horrible. Just horrible and frankly unjustifiable.
They burned a boat full of effigies. Of people. Migrants. Refugees. On purpose. In 2025. In the UK. If your spine isn’t cold, you’re not paying attention.

The description of Scotland here is wrong. Some barely concealed homophobia as well. I don’t think he also correctly identifies why people vote for reform: it isn’t because of pride flags, it’s because communities have been left behind, because of inequality & failed politics.
A new, fraudulent Left has emerged in Scotland. They loathe the working-class and think Socialism is about putting out more flags. The Tories and corporate capitalism are loving it: my column in @heraldscotland

The dark history of the first half of the 20th century gave us words for such policies: ‘ethnic cleansing’, ‘genocide’, ‘concentration camps.’ .Israel must stop or be stopped 😔.
A truly chilling story. Guardian reporting that the Israeli Defence minister has asked IDF to draw up plans to move 600,000 Palestinians to a camp on the ruins of Rafah, something he calls a “humanitarian city.”. Once in, they wouldn’t be allowed to leave.
