'Keep the promise' says the politician who broke hers.
The Herald@heraldscotland
An emotional Nicola Sturgeon makes her final contribution in Holyrood. The former FM is stepping away after 27 years. "For the sake of the children who rely on us to look after them ... to those who will occupy these benches in a few weeks time, keep the promise."

As political con artists go, few were more brazen or more accomplished than Nicola Sturgeon dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Truly odious woman. Glad we won’t to hear any more from her.

Nicola Sturgeon just delivered her final ever contribution to Holyrood 🥳🍾🎈🎉 She should be in jail.

You have to be sick in the head to be proud of legalising infanticide. I was born 10-12 weeks prematurely in 1971. My mum was told I would die in the incubator, or be stunted and handicapped. Though blind in 1 eye, I am six foot one, a Professor at Cambridge, and glad to be alive

Proud to have put my name to this important amendment to Clause 208 which seeks to decriminalise women who have abortions & have just spoken in the debate currently underway in the House of Lords.

Elder of Ziyon 🇮🇱@elderofziyon
Paul Finlayson, a well-liked, non-Jewish professor at a small Canadian university, was suspended, silenced, and ultimately lost his career after expressing support for Israel in a online exchange with a Pakistani fan of Hamas soon after October 7. He writes that the university removed him without clear charges, barred him from communicating with students or colleagues, and allowed false rumors to spread that he had committed violent acts and was arrested —all entirely fabricated. Another faculty member who had publicly expressed support for Hamas seems to have been instrumental in this nightmare. The university and union all turned against him without giving him even the chance to defend himself. The result was not just discipline, but reputational destruction. A longtime lecturer was isolated, silenced, defamed, and slandered. Finlayson may not be Jewish but this is a horrific story of extreme antisemitism where even expressing a pro-Israel opinion can be career-ending. See his full account here:.

Today, the Islamic Republic hanged multiple Iranian civilians, some of whom were just teenagers.
Amnesty International? Silent.
The UN? Silent.
Human Rights Council? Silent.
The Red Cross? Silent.

Oddly, if you submit an FOI request asking the Scottish Government for evidence that Scotland’s renewables are low-cost, or even just to identify a single low-cost generation asset, they have absolutely nothing. Because Swinney’s rhetoric is simply not true.
John Swinney@JohnSwinney
Scotland produces huge amounts of renewable energy, but the UK's broken energy system means people's bills are through the roof. Scotland's energy should work for the benefit of people, not Westminster. On May 7th, vote SNP for the fresh start of independence, with lower bills.

NHS anti-racism latest
A Jewish employee was "investigated for 'Zionist beliefs', including posts celebrating Jewish festivals. A black friend who spoke up for her was smeared as a 'coconut', and a supportive Muslim branded a 'disgrace to her religion'”

My @theIFS colleague @StuartAdam_IFS & I have done lots of work on property taxes.
Our scorecard for Scotland unfortunately isn't glowing.
🏡Council tax needs genuine revaluation & reform.
💷LBTT increases means its increasingly damaging.
🛍️Business rates increasingly complex.
Institute for Fiscal Studies@TheIFS
Thread 2 on our NEW report on Scottish tax and benefit policy. Property tax reform is sorely needed in Scotland – for fairness and efficiency. 1. Like in England, council tax is out-of-date, regressive, and inefficient [THREAD]

A motion declaring Zionism is racism has been selected for debate at the Green Party’s conference. If adopted, it would be the first UK party to define Jewish self-determination as racist, and the first UK party to have hatred of Jews as its core value.

Drug deaths in Scotland are up 8%.
Glasgow opened a drug consumption room just over a year ago. The biggest rise in deaths is now in Glasgow itself. I ’ve just gone through the Scottish Drugs Forum’s 40-year anniversary discussion. It was meant to be a celebration.mWhat it actually reveals is something far more uncomfortable.
Not just about policy.
But about power.
About who shapes the narrative.
And about how difficult it has become to challenge a system from within it.
There’s a moment in it that stopped me cold.
“I didn’t really have much of a boss… three appraisals in 36 years.”
That tells you more than any strategy document ever could. If the same voices shape the policy, the funding and the story we tell ourselves about it…
Who exactly is holding the system to account?
I’ve written this as carefully and honestly as I can.
Have a read. I’d genuinely be interested in what people think.

A big question for aspiring Presiding Officers in a few weeks time should be if they would allow any more bills or parliamentary time on assisted dying. Three times is enough when we need to modernise the economy and public services in Scotland.

@BloodyPolitics @graeme_from_IT Indeed. Very frustrating. David apparently blocked me while I was pouring him a glass of wine while sitting in the same room as him 🤷♂️

@graeme_from_IT It's all a bit sinister. You'd think X would have decent mechanism to report hijacked accounts and help people recover them.

Gutted that @dj_forrester hasn't been able to get his hacked account back. Scumbag hacker doesn't want me warning people that he's sending dodgy DMs and links to David's X pals. #ManDown

warning for those who follow @dj_forrester - be aware his account has been hacked (based on a DM i just received) - anybody with direct contact might want to ensure he’s aware

@Maureen6Johnson @Moonie_l @dj_forrester David has been hacked and is working to regain access to his account. It is slow going.

Hey @Moonie_l @dj_forrester / think your accounts hacked. Identical DMs from you. Didn’t click on.
