They can't help us with petrol costs but they can award themselves an above inflation pay rise at a cost of over £2m. #Parasites

ChatGPT made this graphic for me to illustrate the pump price of petrol... The fuel duty is higher than the crude oil component And then we pay VAT including on the fuel duty!! When @RachelReevesMP talks about fuel profiteering she needs to look in the mirror @griffitha @ClaireCoutinho

⛽ Next time you hear the Government blame the prices on overseas crisis, think of this 👇🏼 No tax/VAT: 📉 Unleaded 67.0p/litre Diesel 86.1p/litre Full pump price: 📈 Unleaded 143.9p/litre Diesel 166.8p/litre Govt takes ~77p petrol / ~81p diesel per litre (fuel duty 52.95p + 20% VAT). Over half your fill-up is tax 💸

The older I get, the more my weekends are just me trying to recover from my job

Almost three years since he was arrested, almost two years since he was charged, almost a year since his first court appearance and we still haven't even got to entering a fucking plea. Banana republics point at us and laugh.

It wasn't to be for Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson - they've missed out on winning Great Britain's first medal of these games, but they still entertained the crowd in Milan ❤️ #Olympics #MilanoCortina2026

@AnnieWellsMSP £54 to park for an hour closest to the airport to ensure I can help my elderly mother get into the airport and help her check her luggage in etc - daylight robbery!!!

£7 just to drop someone off for 15 minutes at Glasgow Airport is steep, no matter how you dress it up. People aren’t using drop-off zones for fun, they’re helping relatives, supporting older passengers, or managing tight travel plans. Airports should be accessible and practical, not quietly pricing people out of basic convenience.

Charging people to drop off at airports is one of the biggest scams going. Glasgow airport charging £7 for the privilege is nothing short of disgusting

Net Zero is economic suicide. It must go.

Why do people still vote SNP? They treat the law with contempt, parliament with contempt and the people of Scotland with contempt. Yet, they still win elections 🤷‍♀️ Don’t let them win in May #NoVotesSNP

To be clear I’m asking @scotgov to comply with the law not break the law. If having reviewed the documents they haven’t looked at yet and they think there is a jigsaw identification issue, they have the opportunity to make that case. That would be compliance.

‘You called for legislation to protect the NHS from Donald Trump, maybe the NHS needs legislation to protect it from Nicola Sturgeon’

John Swinney is a First Minister in name only. 2026 is only 3 weeks old and look at his record. This isn’t leadership, it's a shameful dereliction of duty.

Read it slowly. Not a single measure to boost growth. Not one. After 18 years, the SNP still don’t understand how jobs are created.

@AndrewBowie_MP Spending public money on reserved policy areas is unlawful. Why have no steps been taken - at any point since 1999 - to call for a Treasury audit of Scotgov spending and to hold those responsible accountable?

100,000 hit with higher taxes. The SNP isn’t governing — it’s mugging Scottish workers.

Hilarious. Shona Robison tosses workers 61p a week while hammering anyone earning £50k with £1,500–£3,300 MORE tax than the rest of the UK. This isn’t a budget. It’s a con job.

It is shocking that farmers who want to ensure their animals are killed humanely and not by cruel Halal non stunned methods are unable to demand that this happens.All meat MUST be labelled so the public know the method of killing and no Education authority should be serving only Halal meat in their schools with no choice for parents.

@desibuna What a wonderful job his grandparents have done in raising such a lovely young man who speaks well and feels secure and loved enough to share his story ❤️
