If there are to be only two possible verdicts then they should be 'Proven' and 'Not Proven'.

The Gee.
The point at which I walk away from football completely draws ever closer.
Westminster politicians believe they know what is best for Scotland. I believe it is all of us who live in Scotland who know what is best for Scotland - and we have the fundamental right to decide. ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
It probably just annoys them that anyone could be to the right of them.
Scorer of Celtic's last ever goal against Rangers.
MS-NOT?
In a heartbeat if they paid him enough.
PS - if you enjoy these kind of threads, give this one a repost. I honestly canโt tell if anyone ever reads them and I feel kinda silly writing them for no one.
If you don't already know, look up the derivation of the word 'sabotage'.
Proud to support the campaign by @scotrefugeecouncil.bsky.social to show that Scotland is proud to welcome refugees. Join me in being #PartofTheBiggerPicture, and together letโs make Scotland a more welcoming and inclusive place. ๐๐
Trump will do precisely what Putin wants him to do and, in all likelihood, won't even realise it.
It's not that lost! Pretty sure I saw it yesterday.
Don't boo Trump when he speaks in public. Laugh at him ! Laughter is like a laser through his stinky thin skin.

I met Leon in Castletown this morning. What a man! Heโs walking the NC500, raising funds for Mind. Tragically, his partner took her life last year and he struggles with poor mental health and drug addiction. He has a YouTube channel and would love to share his message. youtube.com/shorts/2lmrU...
If you weren't already planning to walk along the beach from there to Dunnet then you should give it some thought.
Castletown?
Trump on Gaza: "I'm speaking to Bibi Netanyahu and we are coming up with various planning applications."
Thanks. I was beaten to the 'trout' version. So it goes.
Iโm sad to hear that my friend Mhairi Black has left the SNP Mhairi is clever, sincere, funny and kind. She endured relentless attacks from some pretty appalling people whilst she was in front line politics. Sheโll remain, I hope, a huge asset in our national life.
This grovelling, self loathing little shitehawk is welcoming Trump at Prestwick tomorrow. This wee unionist arsewipe who once called him unworthy for the office of US President. Anything to get in on the act ehh Ian? @ianmurraymp.bsky.social @scottishlabour.bsky.social @uklabourparty.bsky.social
'List'? I admire your tolerance of other people. I've added him to volume 2 of my 'K's.
They burned a boat full of effigies. Of people. Migrants. Refugees. On purpose. In 2025. In the UK. If your spine isnโt cold, youโre not paying attention.
Because everything or almost everything is shite.
I await his announcement that he's going to invade Dutchland.
So it's a croc of shit, then?
On the Senate passing Trumpโs (very stupidly named) Big Beautiful Bill
Trans is not an ideology unless you think your right to be who you are is an ideology rather than a basic human right. Let people be who they want to be. Let people do what we all do throughout our lives, just trying to work out how and who to be in a world of challenges.
Rod Stewart says โwe have to give Nigel Farage a chanceโ โWE!!!!โ I have a better idea. Why donโt โWEโ wonder why a multi millionaire tax exile who lived in the US for 40 years to avoid paying tax and supporting the NHS and has now moved back to England wants to give Frogface a chance?

Pete Hegsethโs press conference is why some AA meetings donโt let newcomers share.

A short sober window.
Actually, it's 1.
Maybe giving him an Oscar for his 'perfect' role in Home Alone 2 will keep him quiet, at least for a while.* After all, Obama hasn't got one of them. * It won't.
It would be just like trying to translate a fart.
We're boiling the water to make ice.

It is in SquaredleWorld. I blame the Americans.

If reincarnation is a thing than Goebbels has reincarnated in the most ironic way. As a self loathing jew!
Indeed. It has become the bland soulless Marks & Spencer of festivals.
Glastonbury is now the music festival for people who don't really like festivals. Or music.
Something about Jesus and Saving but I haven't got the energy right now!
Flower of Scotland is just fucking cringe. Especially when it's sung by No voters in kilts.
You mistyped 'arse'.
That'll save them having to arrange another one without him to actually discuss anything important.
Yes. But I have for a good many years now.

Would that be a deeply morose Chinese commentator?
Meant to send you this before you set out. I spotted this in a window in Santiago De Compostela in 2014. Was going to ask you if was still there.
The BBC's Director-General has expressed strong concerns about misinformation and disinformation, calling them a threat to democracy and even people's lives. I get most of my misinformation and disinformation from BBC Scotland. @bbcuk.bsky.social
I have never encountered a leading politician who is as spectacularly bad at politics as Starmer. He's tone deaf, emotionally illiterate, and a principle free vacuum who is the creature of the hideous centre-right entryist ghouls of Labour Together

No. Just a shit.
Can you imagine. All those countries who broke free from Westminster. I donโt believe one of them was stopped because independence was seen as a โreserved matterโ.

@hamishhawk.bsky.social Hi. Not something I would normally do but maybe you could help spread the word about this. www.justgiving.com/page/john-mc... John has become a bit of an unofficial HH ambassador in The Netherlands since seeing you in Amsterdam. He came in search of Travis but left with you!
It was going just fine until some big guy punched me in the head for no reason when I was getting off the tube.

In fairness, he's not long up from a bit of a lie-in.

It's ok. He paid the fine next week.

Get a move on. I'm not paying you to bloody enjoy yourself!
#BhoyOnHike ๐ฅพ soon. Flight to Porto delayed - hope I make it on time for the Celtic match. #CELKIL โWee Jinkyโ has travelled everywhere with me - including Patagonia. On Tuesday heโll start the #PortugueseCamino with me ๐ค www.justgiving.com/page/john-mc...
Sorry John, couldn't bear it any longer. Absolute torture. I'll catch it later somehow. Buena suerte. ยกQue el camino suba para encontrarte!
Tuned in now. They're currently playing something that probably is technically music but I'll try to bear it a bit longer to hear you. Failing that, I'll need to do it later after therapy.

Who would not want to remove themselves from such toxicity of a regime that denigrates the poor & the disabled? When I travel & asked if I am British, I'm at pains to point out that I am Scottish & never British. That distinction is becoming rather popular now in Europe. Will you join those numbers?
I visited the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library in Indianapolis today. These are the only photos I took.
She's probably just been invited on a very interesting Signal chat.
Iโve been dragging myself onto the train at sparrowโs fart most mornings lately - because apparently my life choices have ruled out sleep as a viable option - and itโs been surprisingly enlightening.
Mike Walz - the actual National Security Advisor for the United States - included a journalist from @theatlantic.com into a Signal group in which they discussed an actual military operation (and slagged off Europe in the process)? How are we at the point now where this is not surprising? (A ๐งต)
This is not just a circus. Itโs a circus where the clowns have the nuclear codes, the lion tamerโs high, the ringmasterโs on Truth Social, and the tentโs on fire. And the rest of us? Weโre all locked inside.
They'll probably stay very quiet about that in case it prompts serious questions on the subject.
How long before the BBC start hinting that it was part of a deal?
Imagine deciding to force disabled people to sit in their own shit cos you don't want to increase taxes on the super-rich & calling yourself the Labour Party. I'd say shame on Starmer & the Labour MPs who enable him, but those soulless goons have no shame. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...
Hi @fitbatweets.bsky.social Meant to send you this some time ago. Something reminded me today.
My equivalent.
All of them.
The transatlantic alliance and NATO are over. Scotland's future is with 500 million other Europeans. Scotland has nothing to gain & everything to lose by shackling itself to a delusional UK that robs us of our natural wealth & refuses to accept the new geopolitical reality.
President Zelenskyy of #Ukraine is being deluged by - and retweeting - support from European leaders following the shocking #Trump thuggery in the Oval Office today. Europe is upping its game. One significant name missing from the supportive messages thus far: Keir Starmer.
๐บ๐ฆ Slava Ukraini! Scotland stands with Ukraine.
Why not simply invite Putin and cut out the middle man?
