On Wednesday, 8th April, my wife of thirty two years, Maureen O’Donovan, passed away. I’ve written about it here. Sorry it’s very long but it was a very long marriage. ianssmart.blogspot.com/2020/04/a-marr…

Sergio Mattarella, President of the Italian Republic: "No to the use of force outside international rules. The foundations of the European Union will not yield to those who want to dismantle it." As an Italian, I am proud to say that he is our President. 🇮🇹🇪🇺

Good morning. My Twitter/X account got hacked - please don’t click on any link sent to you via DM, and I am not a recent convert to the wonders of cryptocurrency…

So, the Scottish Parliament has spent two years discussing legislation that was always beyond their legislative competence. And then voted against it anyway. I suppose it gave them some way to pass their time.

Today would have been my mother’s 100th birthday. Her elder brother, my uncle Davy, always marked her birthday with a St. Patrick’s day card. So, happy St. Patrick’s day.

A 20-year-old on incapacity benefit is more likely to turn 30 and still be claiming than to have held a steady job for a year. Devastating figures from Pat McFadden and. If he releases the full data, it would make an urgent case for reform comment.press/pat789

@JournoStephen Like whether it is even within the competence of the Scottish Parliament. (It isn’t). The whole exercise is absurd.

@DalgetySusan @scotgov It should be in our manifesto that this guy will be summarily dismissed on day one.

The policy of @scotgov is for its 9,000 core civil servants to work at least 40 % of the time in the office, but they have no idea how many comply because they don’t monitor individuals. These people run the the country. 🤦🏼‍♀️
Sam Taylor@staylorish

Scot Gov civil servants can refuse to work from their offices without disciplinary consequences, and the agreement that civil servants would try to come in 2 days a week was conditional on attendance not being monitored. 🤯
