Long may the seagull statement live in infamy! A real low point of Tory behaviour in Holyrood which almost made it seem like the chamber had been invaded by a flock of such birds. Never has a dour intervention from Rhoda Grant been more welcome.

Provisional statistics from the Met Office show that summer 2025 will ‘almost certainly’ be the warmest summer on record for the UK.

It would move 2018 off the top spot and relegate 1976 out of the top five warmest summer in a series which dates back to 1884.

I greatly enjoyed the comic interlude which was provided by an American man shouting across the car park outside Perth railway station: “Where did you put the chihuahua?!”

“Pleas make this hinge shit end.”

All credit to the person with this on their profile, it’s probably the most compelling thing I have seen on the app.

‘If the problem that this country simply isn’t white enough, someone may as well just come out and say it. Because it’s clear the issue here isn’t Britishness.’ www.independent.co.uk/voices/immig...
Who cares that Britain is on course to be ‘minority white’?
As a study of migration, birth and death rates in the UK points to the white British population becoming a minority by 2063, Anand Menon says the only debate it ought to spark is not about immigration...

For anyone not watching Melodifestivalen, they’ve just make a slightly sharp joke about the Dutch Eurovision contestant from last year who was disqualified.

Any modicum of sympathy I have for Sturgeon is always tempered by the continuous self-delusion she and the other leaders of the independence movement engage in. This point in her interview with the FT is demonstrably false. Polls on independence have moved little, despite many older voters from…

Clearly chairing the education committee hasn’t been enough of an outlet for Douglas Ross’ frustration… Pretty appalling behaviour in the statement this afternoon.
