Hullo folks, how are we today? Red weather doon in wales. Pishing it aa'where in Scotland the noo it seems. Wha's uptae much?

Happy Friday! Great news for the reds here

£11.5M of public funds to build a road to nowhere over a peat bog. Good job everyone.

Well, hard to see anything bad about this. Potentially LD and SGP backing too. Labour getting not even a slice of cold shoulder: learn that Holyrood doesn't play your politiking games Sarwar! Work with the incumbent instead of against the SG ffs, you then get some policies passed. And conservatives, fucking do something other than whinge. I'd be embarrassed to represent your constituents if I were any of you

Mon the Biffy! Saturday day tickets might be a shout

Anyone who knows a teacher knows that class contact time is expensive. It seems for every hour in class, another hour of prep/marking/dealing-with-fallout is needed. More teachers is the answer, more money is the problem. With councils struggling, will Holyrood raise taxes or see if Reeves will break her fiscal rules to raise more cash? As teachers ain't gonna take much more, and the costs of teachers striking is astronomical to the economy

Having done it when it was operating: I'd love to again! Far greener way to travel and who doesn't love a boat?

Creepy Sunday read for us all. Blythe yule!

Watch out, literally nobody can trade hydrogen on an actual matket. It's vapourware still! Until these plans include an ammonia plant, the numbers just don't add up

After the big bruhaa about it in WM from Labour. Holyrood brings it back anyway, another plus for devolution!

So cute, happy Thursday peoples

The bar to strip is comically low of course. Nobody wants a court to decide this. But the prospect then is for abuse of complaints. Still, something has to be done - let's see it applied

Just Holyrood things. How long til England follows suit?

No easy resolution here either. I'd run a heated wire of some sort along the underside. Can't melt when it isn't frozen!

Hullo fellow hoomans. A weekend tae stae in an dae nowt. So whit we up to?

Amber alert, time to actually pay attention!

This is one spin. The national has another https://www.thenational.scot/news/24739615.snp-stephen-flynn-calls-gb-energy-boss-job-numbers-fall/ - 700 fewer roles in just over a month. And the CEO is based in Manchester.

Fundamentally, GBEnergy isn't going to do anything our existing developers aren't doing. And most of these projects look to be taking 10+ years to return a profit. Can't see it lasting personally, the Tories will just flog it off when they next come in

Hooray! Wait for it to breakdown next :) now, 4 more please

What a beast. Some really cringe inducing messages, and a harasser too. Wonka would know exactly what to do with this douchebag

A 7% rise. Despite 20 mph limits being rolled out in many councils. Time for ten year testing and more cameras again

Not good to see him not give up his council role entirely. That would be an interesting by-election

Hullo boys and girls, what's the story today? Wouldn't you like to go?

Ba-la-mo-ry

Back to back oil news from me today, apologies but both are big stories. For anyone that thinks Scotland is a renewable powerhouse: we've got a long way to go still!

Incredible figures. Literally. Let's see them laid out as the price of petrol says to me this can't possibly be true
