@VoteBPB @RideoutTim @LauraEWebsterr @ScotNational How do you think that newspapers operate currently and how do you think they operated in the past vis-a-vis newsgathering? I think you are suffering from romantic notions about a golden age of journalism that never really existed.
English
@RideoutTim @LauraEWebsterr @ScotNational Yes - it’s a well acknowledged tragedy of contemporary media . But when the media in question sources and regurgitates 80% of its “news” from the parochial pisshole of Scottish 𝕏 - and is supposedly a “pro-Independence” publication @HMorrison97’s response was laughable.
English
As per my recent exchange with @LauraEWebsterr it increasingly appears to be the case that the only news the petit bourgeois newshounds at @ScotNational report on is: “news” that you submit via a “press release” 😂
Tim Rideout@RideoutTim
@VoteBPB It doesn't. It says you completely failed to do the most basic PR job of getting out press releases, writing articles, etc. 'News' happens because you make it happen.

@RideoutTim @QuinanLloyd @AnnieGlen11 I also had a look and the only contact I can see that The National has received from Alliance to Liberate Scotland since its inception is this. You may appreciate why this never made it as a story.
English
@RideoutTim @QuinanLloyd @AnnieGlen11 Tim is obviously right in what he is saying here and cover presentations and events he's held because he tells us about them. It really is as simple as that.

🚨 NEW: A founding member of a new Scottish independence party has quit in protest after Craig Murray was selected as a Holyrood candidate
Murray said: 'Standing for the Alliance to Liberate Scotland is not realistically a career move!'
English
@QuinanLloyd @RideoutTim @AnnieGlen11 You can either ask 'why bother' or you can get annoyed about not getting the coverage you'd like but you must see it can't be both. Pointing to print circulation levels also shows you do not grasp the modern media environment

@AnnieGlen11 @QuinanLloyd I was not informed that the Alliance were launched. I had never heard of them until today. I have reported extensively and fairly on all parts of the independence movement for years and will continue to do so.
English
@HMorrison97 @QuinanLloyd What bastards the National are. Not a scrap of publicity when the Alliance launched but happy to splash the bad news around. I couldn’t despise them more. 😡

Interestingly, this will mean that Murray faces off against the SNP's Angus Robertson in Edinburgh Central. Will make for a more interesting than usual hustings at some point, one must hope

📢 I have an amazing opportunity for one talented individual to join my newsroom. We have had some internal promotions which will create at vacancy in the Clydebank Post.
This is an entry level job ideal for someone who is hungry to get their start in journalism.

🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage's 'key priority' is cutting tax on cigars, it has been claimed
SNP MP Kirsty Blackman points out that Reform's only amendment to Labour's budget bill would have cut the cost of cigars...

Labour's comms strategy on Mandelson is now: 'We are literally too stupid to make ambassadorial appointments'. Eccentric, certainly. But how will it play with Mondeo Man?

Darren Jones has an astonishingly poor record in politics. Worked on the Remain campaign, Hillary Clinton's campaign, tried and failed to get PIP cuts over the line... The pattern does not bode well for fans of digital ID

David Lammy: "... because Cyprus is part of NATO" erm, Cyprus is not a member of NATO. Maybe its just a slip of the tongue? Except he repeats the claim just a minute later "... Cyprus is a NATO country" Does the deputy PM not know that Cyprus isn't a member of a NATO?

Important also to note that Starmer said today that a request had not come 'in the specific terms that we acceded until Saturday afternoon'
James Schneider@schneiderhome
According to Tim Shipman’s source Air Marshal Sir Richard Knighton, the chief of the UK defence staff, helped “the US shape their request” to use UK bases to bomb Iran. Our military shouldn’t be helping a foreign power get something it wants out of our government.
