@TheRungler @EmmaWalkerCEO Equally toxic in the Scottish Tories, bullying, backstabbing, no sympathy or support from leadership. The ethos of public service has been abandoned in the race for elected office.

@EmmaWalkerCEO I read this and I’m wondering is it only like that within the LibDems or is it as bad in the Conservatives and the SNP? I suspect they’re equally bad. Good on you for speaking up and let’s hope your story gets the exposure it deserves…

I’m Emma. After joining Scottish Liberal Democrats I became heavily involved as a volunteer. I did incredibly well. They fast tracked through me the approval process so that I could run in elections 1/24

@TriciaMarwick If you wish to see a cult in action look at the Tories. Dissent banned, comment banned, list membership fiddled. After I quit in 2022 was cast into the outer darkness. My bot replacement still blunders about blindly.

@lolls76 @paulhutcheon My impression of Frank Mcaveety as an MSP was a diligent, humorous, non-tribal hard worker. Easy to take up a case on the back of remarks made years ago, deserves to be judged on his public record and the voters will do that.

If Yessers don’t provide the narrative for next week’s Supreme Court verdict, the watching world will conclude Scots are “all gong and no dinner”. Full of talk but unwilling to get organised. That verdict will make waves in the media. How big is up to us. thenational.scot/politics/23130…

Please forgive me if you are one of the small number of people seeing me put out the link to this article for the umpteenth time. Less than 5% of my followers have seen it at all and twitter seems determined to keep it that way. Please help by retweeting craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2022/…

@TomKitchin @ScranandScallie Obviously a Tory Grouse, neither well hung nor able to dodge a shot!

@TasminaSheikh Parents have to take the blame, so it is especially satisfying to take the credit too! Remember how stressful these days can be and how relieved we were when the boys came through.
Love to see you sometime soon, have a catch-up and put Scotland to rights. Lots of love, N

We are so proud of our wonderful daughter who worked exceptionally hard and has achieved the brilliant results she so deserved in her Highers. Now on to Sixth Year and hopefully to study Law. Good luck to all awaiting their results. Remember there’s #NoWrongPath #SQAresults

Thank You and Good Luck !👏🏻👏🏻

@LesleyRiddoch @UniStrathclyde We should all campaign now for real and meaningful change in ownership and land use in Scotland. Neglected by all parties in this election, but so vital.

@IainDale If it is bollocks why give him publicity by spreading it on here

And we're supposed to take this utter bollocks seriously?
And he spouts this utter tripe for 2 mins 37 secs without questioning or interription.

"Gardening culture in the UK... has layers and layers of cultural baggage that are attached to it." Ethnobotanist James Wong explains why he thinks the misuse of the words 'heritage' and 'native' in gardening can have racist undertones.
