New: Three new ex-pupils come forward, on the record, to say Farage's racism as a teenager was targeted, persistent and nasty. Farage has denied targeting any individuals - but two of the men tell us they recall Farage abusing Peter Ettedgui.

Game 83: Motherwell 2-0 Hibernian.
A superb win for the 'Well, who controlled the game from start to finish and should have won more comfortably. They'll be a shoo-in for top six in this form.
A night to forget for the woeful Hibees. Att 6,585.

Watching the Chelsea v Barcelona game on 'Prime Vision' really is like watching live action FIFA game. Which is the aim of it I guess. Like FIFA though I get bored within 10 mins.

The project I am on is having its 'big bang' go live this weekend. So effectively my small part is done. Be interesting what I will be involved with. All that tech debt that they should have put live but couldn't. There is another similar project in the pipe as well .

Shrink the car park sure, but of all the shopping centres around Edinburgh Cameron Toll is still full of shops and handy for people who don't drive everywhere, so they'd better not ruin that.
New masterplan for Cameron Toll includes housing and student accommodation www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinbur...
New masterplan for Cameron Toll includes housing and student accommodation
A new masterplan for Cameron Toll would change the layout of the shopping centre, cut back on the car park and add housing, student accommodation, sheltered housing, offices and leisure on the site.

Is it in this show he tells the story about him and his siblings having to use coats as blankets - and then the priest comes to visit. His Mum is trying to hush them while insisting to the priest that they have continental quilts.
Superb story telling and true to life. That could’ve been my house.

some years ago there was a long piece on old twitter about Farage's antics at his private school. Nearly all of them were first hand accounts of him being rather dim witted academically and was right old sook to whatever senior boy was the most powerful. When it was his turn he went nasty.
Not only does #FascistFarage promote white sexual groomers but the Russian owned traitor is so obviously a racist…
Asked again and again whether he ever racially abused his fellow pupils, as 20 people at his old school have now said he did, Nigel Farage will only say that he never did so in a "hurtful way" or "with intent"
