Ayrshire born Arran Cunningham joins the Metropolitan Police and discovers that the law and morality are different. Corruption, revenge and a complex web of loyalties and betrayals ensure that he and DI Cat Skeldon will have to navigate their own way to justice - of a kind…

@HyeseongKimMuse The Hanshin Tigers - with all due respect - are not the Toronto Blue Jays.

In 2023, Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitched in Game 6 of the Japan Series. His team, the Orix Buffaloes, were trailing 3-2 in the series against the Hanshin Tigers. Yamamoto threw a complete game with 138 pitches to force a Game 7, setting a new Japan Series record with 14 strikeouts.

@MeidasScotland Of all the developed countries on the planet, Scotland has the most dysfunctional media. A political aim that has the support of 50% of the population has no mainstream media support other than one cobbled together title ultimately owned by an openly opposed organisation. Bonkers

Coming very soon. BBC Scotland is on the ropes, and yours truly is going to be landing some punches soon. Fuck them. I've had enough. I'm creating a petition so you can all have your say. Here's the draft preamble. "Scottish mainstream media (MSM), particularly BBC Reporting Scotland (the flagship news program on BBC One Scotland), faces widespread accusations—primarily from pro-independence campaigners, academics, and viewer monitors—of systematically employing propaganda techniques to portray the Scottish Government (SNP-led) as incompetent, while downplaying UK Government shortcomings and promoting a pro-Union narrative. This bias is substantiated by academic research, multiple Ofcom breaches, 5+ on-air apologies in 2025 alone (outnumbering all other UK BBC regions combined), plummeting viewership, and real-time analysis of broadcasts. Critics argue this creates a "Scotland Inferior" frame, eroding confidence in devolved institutions to bolster the Union. While some defend BBC Scotland as impartial (citing isolated pro-Labour bias claims), the volume of evidence—from viewer boycotts to editorial patterns—suggests institutionalised techniques favoring Unionist parties (Tories/Labour/LibDems). Below is a breakdown of key propaganda techniques, with specific examples from Reporting Scotland/BBC Scotland. This is only a fraction of what's coming. Watch This space folks.

Pretty amazing that the Blue Jays bullpen - which has seemed like a weakness all year - looks like its full of HoFamers compared to the Dodgers #WorldSeries

Ernie Clement my season MVP. Brilliant at the plate, putting everything in play and MLB's most reliable infielder. #WorldSeries

So the point of replay review is to get the calls right? Except they’ve gotten their last two wrong. Nice system MLB. #WorldSeries

There are many things that people can rightly criticise the SNP for, but Russian bogie men, The Waverley & The Vital Spark? Infantile, pantomime, House Jock stuff. 🥀🤦 Tories: Russian donors (Lebedev) Labour: Israeli paymasters (L.F.o.I.) Oh, how I long for serious politics.
Melanie Ward MP@melanie_ward

It’s no wonder the SNP want to distract from their abysmal record running down our public services. But with Russian aggression on our doorstep, it’s hard to imagine a worse time for their renewed bickering about independence, given the threat it would post to Scottish security

@JohnStuartWilso @MacAskill00 @KennyFarq I agree but that's not obligatory under international law. However, Unionists want cake and eat it on this - share the debt but no share of assets. That shit won't fly.

@MacAskill00 @KennyFarq PlanB? No way of knowing what position ind Scot would be in relation to criteria. Debt, for example, hugely debated.

@JLDurnieWriter @KennyFarq That’s correct, but the fact remains the separatists still have the square root of F all clue what to do about currency. Just like they’ve never produced an economic case for indy. 2 plan As, is lunacy. It’s our £ too, governed by BoE. We’ll use the €, but don’t meet criteria.

@MacAskill00 @KennyFarq Plan A was fair enough and would have been accommodated. BofE, as you know, isn't the Bank of England as in exclusive to England. And examples of multi-jurisdictional central banks, eg. EU and, in some respects, the Fed.

@MacAskill00 @KennyFarq Think we've found common ground. Lunacy to have two plan As but think they had a Plan A then quick Plan B when challenged on A. Should have had courage of conviction and had a firm plan.
