My latest blog piece. Labour's real problem in Scotland is not that Sarwar and Starmar have different visions, but that both stand for the same brand of unprincipled political opportunism and selling out to corporate interests.

Labour’s real problem in Scotland is that Sarwar and Starmer are the same.
It’s hard to overstate just how much of a shambles the Labour party in Scotland has got itself into. On Wednesday The Herald was reporting that branch manager Anas Sarwar had doubled down on …

Jim Radcliffe pissed me off, so I wrote this about the inconvenient truth of migration.

tl:dr - no, just fucking read it. Some basic mathematics - you know, COUNTING THINGS - might make you reconsider, you stupid twats.

No. The shame is on you Mr McAllister. You know damn well this is a reserved power, which the Scottish government did their best to mitigate anyway. You are in effect saying that devolved governments should clear up the mess created by Westminster. Independence can’t come soon enough 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Jim Ratcliffe went on a racist rant today claiming the UK has been colonised and spreading lies that immigration is 5x higher than it is.

All this coming from a man who claimed to live in Monaco so he could dodge £4bn in tax.

HMRC should bill him, then deport him.

Scotland's first GP walk-in centre is now open - seven days a week, 12-8pm.

We will announce 14 more locations soon, making it easier than ever for you to get the care you need.

GP numbers are up, long waits are down, and the SNP will keep delivering progress in our NHS.

Labour MP Georgia Gould is asked about Keir Starmer giving a peerage to someone who had campaigned for someone who'd been charged with possessing and distributing indecent images of children

Gould says the PM didn't know & the vetting needs to be better.

Education is one of the key pillars of a thriving country.

That's why I’m proud that your SNP Scottish Government has increased funding in our schools by more than £1 billion in real terms over the past decade.

Four months ago, I committed to introducing a pilot of GP walk-in clinics.

Today I am opening Scotland's first walk-in GP clinic in Wester Hailes, Edinburgh - open seven days a week, 12-8pm, no appointments needed.

Thanks to our fantastic NHS staff for making this possible.

❗️If today has taught us anything, it’s this: Westminster is the problem. No matter who is in charge, Scotland’s voice is reduced to a non-entity. Labour, the Tories and Reform either fall into line with their Westminster masters or hide until it’s too late. Scotland is left to deal with the damage!

Good news!

Under the SNP, Scotland has delivered a record number of free eye tests.

Meanwhile in England, families pay up to £60 per person under Labour.

This is truly hilarious. Severin Carrell, who has a stroke at the very mention of someone having an independent thought, trying to pitch Sarwar as ruthless calling for people to vote "Scottish" Labour to get the leader "English" Labour votes for is comedy gold.

Sarwar has shown his ruthless streak. But will his swipe at Starmer mean anything to voters?
Scottish Labour leader is gambling that by declaring his loyalty to Scotland, the electorate will rally behind him

British politics isn't about you or me, or your neighbour, friend or colleague. British politics is about the people who sit in that hateful palace on the Thames, the vile venal games they played to get into that rotten place, and the exercise of power in their own interest once they’re installed

Anyone who thinks this is Anas Sarwar putting 'country before party' needs their damn head examining. This is Anas Sarwar putting his own ludicrous hopes of becoming Scotland's First Minister ahead of both his party and country

The London commentariat are frankly embarrassing on any Scottish issue.
