Humza isn't a great politician, but he isnae a rubbish politician either, and the is short of talent at Holyrood. would be unwise no tae gie him a cabinet seat; and gien hoo has performed on an ither maitters furth o Scotland, it would be guid tae see him in a foreign relations brief.

If we're aiming for , we need to be developing strong relationships with the rest of Europe and beyond.

Yousaf is mistaking himself as the problem, they're after the whole Govt. Weariness with a Govt that's run too long isn't just a Tory problem.

@simon_lucy I think it's more weariness with a government that the press has constantly belittled and hounded to death.

Radical #political idea for transport
Make it illegal to drive past a bus stop with empty seats in the car. Even if you take them in the general direction of their destination and have to drop them at the last bus stop they can use before your route takes you off in the wrong direction. If you can drop them on your route you get to have the bus fare for petrol, electricity, maintenance etc.
And they can check your insurance and MOT from the license plate so you can't drive anyone daft.

The Home Office will launch a surprise operation to detain asylum seekers across the UK tomorrow..
Officials will hold refugees who turn up for routine meetings at immigration offices & also pick people up nationwide.
They will be immediately transferred to previously prepared detention centres & held to be put on later flights to Rwanda.

Anyone who takes part in this disgusting operation is breaking international law.

@junesim63 are there lists of where I can go to protest and prevent these detentions?

@patrickharvie I was intending on switching my vote in the general election from SNP to green (as I can't in conscience vote for Joanna Cherry).
Green always got my councillor vote and second list vote in Scotland elections.
If the green party go for no confidence and side with the Tories you will also lose my vote for good.
Just so you know.

Thanks to the antics of my local MP, we have a by-election soon, which means lots of election material being spammed into our letter box.

Apart from the Labour candidate's pamphlet looking like BNP material via all the flag-shagging, the one that stood out was from a 'Non-Political' political party.

And when it started ranting about "the woke mind virus", I knew this was yet more far right populist bollocks.

But then, isn't that UK politics in general these days?

@alexanderhay if woke is a virus then there fucked if they use Matt Han(djob)cock's playbook of planning to keep it from infecting more people

Rapidly reaching the surreal stage

Farmers who have their entire cropping land submerged underwater have found they are ineligible for a government flooding hardship fund – because their farms are too far from a major river.

Because OF COURSE there's no way to contact the IRS, after I filed my simple refund early (January) and it's just been sitting in some kind of weird audit state since then. Because of course. It's my money, but to hell with that, right?

Sometimes a random Roy Orbison song pops in my head and I love it. Roy passed when I was only 8. But that's how powerful that dude was. His songs still pop in my head, despite the fact that never really actively listen to them. That's art. That's eternal.

@jake4480 Roy was one of the few musicians my dad would play thatI just didn't get. Too sad i think. Same reason I don't get Lewis Capaldi.
Queen. The who. The kinks. The animals. Moody blues. Manfred Mann. Dire straits. Chris rea. Jerry Rafferty. Joe Cocker. The Beatles. Billy Joel... My brain is getting sleepy so I'll stop there. Plenty to like though.
