Brilliant news for Scottish industry delivered by this Labour Government.

Roger Federer says he lost the 2008 Wimbledon final at the very first point, not in the darkness of the fifth set. "But looking back, I feel like I lost at the very first point of the match." "I looked across the net and I saw a guy who just a few weeks earlier crushed me in straight sets at the French Open and I thought, this guy is maybe hungrier than I am. And he's finally got my number." "It took me until the third set before I remembered..." "Some defeats hurt more than others. I knew I would never get another shot at six in a row." "I lost Wimbledon, I lost my number one ranking, and suddenly people said, he had a great run. Is this the changing of the guard?" The five-time defending champion, on his best surface, spent two sets playing against a thought he carried onto the court from Paris. The reset, when it finally comes, is worth hearing in his own voice. The lesson: your attention picks a story before your effort gets a vote. Check the story you are carrying into the first point of whatever you start today. - Roger Federer (@rogerfederer) at Dartmouth Commencement (@dartmouth)



Classless pr*cks. I hope Spain beat them as badly in the Final as we beat them in the Falklands War.






NEW: I’m hearing of a large number of redundancies in Scottish Labour after the election defeat, including senior staff and a big chunk of the field team. A source says the job loss plan is “entirely driven” by UK Labour, which has been at odds with the Scottish party.

Johanna not the sharpest knife in the block. The Scottish Government produces a budget every year and Audit Scotland audits the Scottish Government every year. The 2024-2025 audit linked below. All you have to do is read the the budget and the audit. audit.scot/publications/s…
