9 long years of hurt. Everything No stood for is gone. Torn out of the EU. Endless Tory austerity while the VIP lane laugh all the way to their yachts. A new monarch insisting on lavish ceremony while people can't afford food and heating. We need change. Independence is normal.

That's shit Brian. It's a good news Scotland story and yet you can't bring yourself to say it's a £40m project with £20m from Ryanair and £15m from the Scottish govt & Enterprise Scotland. No you didn't lie, but the ommission is even more damning.

@msm_monitor Not that he meant a single word of it. No feeling in it at all.

STV News covered Anas Sarwar's grovelling apology after he insulted stroke victims. Reporting Scotland again employed a blackout.

Wow. What a movie. What cinematography. What powerful drama. Incredible. Not sure what I was expecting but wasn't quite ready for that. Fantastic. #peakyblinders

@AnnieWells2026 I moved back to Scotland 2.5 years ago Annie. Paying that income tax rate. But I don't notice it because my council tax is lower on a comparable property and I don't have an additional £700 separate water bill. I'm more than happy to be paying my way for services in Scotland 👍

Somewhat different from the endless #Tory claims about people fleeing #Scotland because of the tax system!

@54Lamb @indy_swim So he wants to offer an apology but hasn’t actually made an apology. Let’s see him made to squirm at FMQs tomorrow then.

So Sarwar’s apology to stroke victims for his crass offensive comments was provided through a spokesperson. This guy isn’t fit to run a bath far less a Government.

@davidbirkettsnp @AnasSarwar The man who for months has been pretending to be the champion of hospital patients. Shown his true colours now.

“did you get my stroke pose?” jokes @AnasSarwar... of course no-one finds stokes amusing... First Minister material? Nae Chance!

@Indynow6 The man is so impossibly vain. Fully focused on his own job and nobody else's.

Completely unsuitable to be a party leader far less FM. I reckon he spends a lot of time posing in front of a mirror.

@glasgowcathcart A right to life but no right to die. No right to end suffering should we ourselves choose. Disappointed.

Hugely disappointed by the decision not to pass the Assisted Dying Bill. Lots of reasons given in the chamber for not voting in favour, most debunked by Liam in his closing. There will be a lot of extremely unhappy seriously ill people out there tonight. A real missed opportunity

This is what Sarwar intends to implement immediately if he becomes FM. Thankfully, the risk of that is minuscule.

@AnasSarwar What you actually mean, is that you will contract Palantir to provide this app. The NHS App is scheduled to be rolled out in April 2026. You can make as many promises as you like without ever having to deliver them. Have you issued an unreserved apology to the SFRS yet?

@CalltoActivism Horrific.

RUBIO: "Cuba has an economy that doesn't work." It's a nonfunctional economy, and the people in charge don't know how to fix it, so they have to get new people in charge." Can we handle our own economy before we blow up the entire planet? This is insane.

BREAKING: The worst NHS in the UK for ‘corridor care’ is Labour run Wales at 38% of patients ! The best is Scotland at 7% ! Sarwar/Baillie, where are you now ?

@LizzieLabour @ScottishLabour @AnasSarwar We got change 20 months ago. Wasn't it wonderful. WASPI Women conned. Grangemouth gone, Mossmorran gone. Fishing communities shafted. No zonal pricing for electricity bills. Businesses taxed to the hilt. Unemployment up and soaring national debt. Labour? Not to be trusted.

Blaming asylum seekers for homelessness? What about the 720,000 empty homes in England, and the 1,627,450 second homes in England alone. Blaming asylum seekers for expensive food shops? What about the £3,100,000,000 profit Tesco made last year? Blaming asylum seekers for expensive energy bills? What about the £438,000,000,000 made by just 20 energy companies in profit? Blaming immigrants for not getting an NHS appointment? What about the 260,000+ migrant workers keeping the NHS going? And what about the 25% real term cut in NHS funding, think that could do it? Blaming people on welfare for a lack of money to fund the NHS? What about the £36,000,000,000 tax gap due to avoidance and evasion by the elite? It's time to realise it's not immigrants, asylum seekers or people on welfare causing you any harm, it's capitalism and the mega rich hoarding all the wealth.

Not sure what's more annoying, the non contrast shirts or ITVs dumb adverts breaking into the coverage. Either way, it's not a fun watch. #FRAvENG

@mgshanks Nobody wants Nuclear apart from Labour's billionaire donors. It's ruinously expensive, ruins the environment and not needed in Scotland. When will you come clean?

Love this… THESE SHOULD BE PUT ON EVERY PUMP!!!

@KennyFarq Did do a bit of a double take there 😁

Yes, that was me saying something nice about Stephen Flynn.

Good line from Stephen Flynn at the SNP spring conference, calling Scottish Labour's bad year an "Anas Horribilis".

Why isn’t a newspaper south of the border willing to spell out what the overwhelming majority of us want?
