Holyrood honours the Queen
I’ve just been reading through the Parliamentary Debate which honoured the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee yesterday. Each Party leader, including Patrick Harvie, made a short speech and I felt that they captured what the Queen means to Scotland and its people. … Continue reading

The final proof that I was right over Yes Scotland’s web scam – attacked by Newsnet Scotland
So, Yes Scotland has been forced into a third climbdown and has said it will no longer harvest the details of its Twitter followers. In the future, those pictured on the website will have signed up actively in some way … Continue reading

More on Yes Scotland’s dodgy digital dealings #yesscam

If you doubt the Liberal Democrat influence in this Coalition Government, look no further than today’s news about how the Government has moderated its plans on secret courts in three important ways at the insistence of Nick Clegg. The key concessions … Continue reading
Why I always stay in the cinema till the very last credit has rolled….
Last night Scotland Tonight was looking at the best Scottish movie of the Queen’s reign and came up with the harrowing and gripping Trainspotting. I watched that on video on a Sunday afternoon and was traumatised by it. It always … Continue reading

UK Uncut should not have been protesting at Nick Clegg’s house
I have been absolutely appalled by some of the stuff I’ve seen from supporters of UK Uncut in defence of their protest outside Nick Clegg’s house. Some people think that, because children are having to suffer the impacts of cuts … Continue reading

Nick Clegg on Andrew Marr this morning – Eurozone, human rights, immigration and vested interests
