@JimSpenceDundee Indeed. Lived in a prefab. So cold inside one night that the water froze in the fish tank. In the morning, I found the goldfish swimming on its side in the couple of inches of water that hadn't frozen. It survived. Even goldfish were tougher in the 60s!

As a kid did your Ma and Da’s house have, Central heating, double glazed windows, duvets, or did you have a coal or two bar electric fire in one room, fishmonger’s streaming windows, and a candle wick 🤔😁

@DundeeFC I was there with my late Dad. In the same stand as the TV camera. My view of the goal was very similar. So long ago now!

@SBarrettBar Who is playing Beria to Starmer's Stalin? That concerns me more. I can't believe Starmer is calling all the shots (pun intended).

@cold957 Agreed. When war-torn and corrupt countries (e. g. Somalia) can chair the UN Security Council, you know it's a lost cause.

@SBarrettBar He was walking like a gumby from Monty Python. For those not old enough to remember, it's not a good look.

@JeremyCordite A poor cover version of The Two Ronnies. It's goodnight from me and it's goodnight from him. It's certainly goodnight Conservatives with the likes of them at the helm.

@RichardWellings I've lost count of the number of roads, narrowed to carve out cycle lanes, that I've driven along where cyclists are as rare as hen's teeth.

#IStandWithStarmer - best Labour PM since Wilson - leading Europe, delivering social justice and standing tall for Britain. Clear?

@JimSpenceDundee Conducted the play at Easter Road vs Dundee. A footballing brain, at least, two steps ahead of the opposition and even his Hibs teammates! I recall he was on a pay as you play contract because, at times, he'd miss his flight from London and be a no-show. Flawed genius.

@cold957 @Keir_Starmer Because he keeps getting community noted on X. It's a personal vendetta, not a policy decision, IMHO.

Presumably, this individual will be fast-tracked to 31 months in a UK jail, but I won't hold my breath. BBC News - British-Egyptian dissident apologises for tweets as Tories push for UK deportation bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@SBarrettBar Utterly appalling way to treat a paying passenger. Report them. Sue them. We are not (yet) a Banana Republic. Sending my best wishes.

Thank you to all the people who have privately messaged support - I am a bit overwhelmed 😊 They dragged me over rough concrete, so lying down is painful But I'm on the sofa with Small Person watching the Simpsons and am still in disbelief if I'm honest x

Proud to have received this award from @LabourMuslims Network including for my work in pushing for sanctions on Israel over its genocide and for challenging the hatred being whipped up against the Muslim community that's increasingly leading to appalling abuse & physical attacks.

Nearly 50 MPs have now backed the parliamentary motion calling on the Justice Secretary to engage with the Palestine Action hunger strikers. Now one of those, Qesser Zuhrah, has been hospitalised. David Lammy needs to stop ignoring the call from MPs and urgently engage in this.

@SBarrettBar Just how captured is our judiciary? They can't all be Starmer's mates, surely?
