He's ripe to jump on the Deform ticket.

Over ripe.

Trerons was the department store in the MacLennan Galleries building, it was still a going concern in the early 1980s, but it's reputation was of a place for elderly Kelvinside ladies to go to buy ribbons, pot pourri and artificial flowers.

Not Cathcart.

Our streets are already jammed with cars!

Try Kings Park area. 😉

The 'Scottish' media is, to a large extent, the campaigning arm of WM rule of Scotland. Between now & May 2026 it will spin every positive story about Scotland as a negative one, and where that's impossible, will not report positives at all. Try other sources.

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals.

Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’.

What, Michelle? 🧵

My favourite Shankly quote was when asked why he was doing the same physical training regime as the Liverpool first team, most at least half his age, he said,

"When I die, I want to be the fittest man that ever died."

It's a race to the bottom for Starmer and Farage.

It's long gone time to ditch these two faces of the English Empire; the patrician and the spiv.

Scotland Free or a Desert.

Still listened to in it's entirety.

An absolute classic of it's time, despite the questionable sleeve artwork!

The 2014 NO win was conditional upon delivery of The Vow, Devo Max, Brown's Federalism & importantly remaining in the EU

UK was given 1 last chance to treat Scotland as an equal partner in the UK.

It FAILED.

Had WM delivered on its promises, then it would have avoided IndyRef2 for a generation.

Aye, a great gig, even though we had a couple of "out-of-towners" behind us who thought it okay to chat away during the performance. I guess they were just dazzled by the big city lights & people wearing shoes & stuff.
Nevertheless, they were stunned when asked, then told to shuttit ....
