She pretty much stitched up herself, Brian. The British state didn’t have to do a thing.

John Swinney is the man who has ultimate responsibility for CalMac, and we are heading into the Easter Weekend with one quarter of the fleet inoperable.

I’m fed up with the Westminster system that means hard work delivers less and less, while people’s energy and food costs just keep going up. The fresh start of independence would mean we can use Scotland’s resources to benefit Scotland’s people. #BothVotesSNP on May 7th. 🏴

Scottish Health Secretary Neil Gray should be removed as a candidate for @theSNP at next month’s elections.
He’s every bit as guilty as the plebs who have already rightly taken the fall.
The Herald@heraldscotland
Neil Gray is the latest senior SNP figure facing questions over the Jordan Linden scandal after local councillors accused him of failing to engage on the allegations several years ago. During a lengthy North Lanarkshire Council debate on Thursday, a motion passed urging councillors who supported the convicted sex offender to resign. Linden, the former council leader, was convicted of 10 offences last week, including five sexual assaults, between 2011 and 2021. Over the last week, North Lanarkshire councillors who left the SNP after raising the alarm against Linden, have accused First Minister John Swinney of ignoring a letter demanding a review of how the SNP handled complaints. The letter was sent in September 2025, but a response was never received. Now, Mr Gray, who is the MSP for Airdrie and Shotts, is among more senior SNP figures reportedly made aware of the allegations 👇

if this was any old deluded nationalist we would ignore it - but apparently given he’s an “acclaimed Scottish actor” we should pay attention to his whacky conspiracy theories?

Absolutely ludicrous suggestion that a man first elected as SNP leader in 2000 and who has served at the heart of a failing government for the last 19 years is capable of offering change.

‘I’ll lead an activist government that will cut public bodies, prioritise growth’ and do less, better. @JohnSwinney makes case for why, after nearly two decades in office, he is the man to “change Scotland”. thetimes.com/article/731d28…

This is the problem that Swinney needs to address. There is no ‘news blackout’ on Joani Reid. How would you know about it if it had not been widely reported? The issue with Linden and why it’s been covered extensively is because of the cover up.
You demean yourself standing by those that chose to ignore a serial sex predator and blame victims and the media.

Hey Connor, why the news blackout on the 'Scottish' Labour MP Joani Reid and threat to UK security? You know, a real story. Cat got your tongue?

Billions wasted on rusty ferries, malicious prosecutions, Gaelic road signs, gender ideology, pointless quangos, and an army of entitled SpAds living large on public money

Sex criminal council boss Jordan Linden was backed by the SNP for YEARS.
In turn, John Swinney backed Linden's chief protector Tracy Carragher.
Only NOW has he been shamed into axing her as a Holyrood candidate.

OMG the lack of awareness of this minister is breathtaking. Or maybe she is happy to be seen as: over budget, delayed and not working. I suppose it is an accurate description of her government.

If members were expelled from the SNP for daring to question Jordan Linden’s behaviour & the way in which concerns about him were handled there can be no doubt that HQ & therefore the leadership were aware of what was going on. Back in 2022 the leader & CEO were a married couple.
Cults? No thanks.@JustOneWeeWorld
