#BBCLauraK just stated that there are terrible problems with the #Scottish#NHS. What's she on about - of course there are problems after 14 years of Tory mismanagement and corruption but we haven't even had strikes here unlike the rest of UK.
@glynmoody Poor wee souls. I remember having whooping cough when I was around 4 or 5 and it was horrible. Thankfully the vaccination rate here in Scotland is 95% so 🤞
@fkamiah17@GlasWolf@tony What a shame though that a wide ranging Act which seeks to help lots of people is hijacked by these paranoid, trans obsessed eejits.
Today some people in Scotland are getting upset that they are no longer able to be quite as publicly and loudly horrible to other people any more without potential legal consequences.
For those out of the loop...
Have an opinion? Allowed.
Threats, abuse and inciting hatred against people because of who they are?
No.
Not even those ones over there.
Legislation covers race, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, trans and intersex.
@FionaCraig Really appropriate that the supporters of this being a Christian country, should welcome steps that promote loving fellow humans and that stop hate towards vulnerable groups #sarcasm 🙄
If Rowling and Musk are criticising it, it must be a good thing.
"About 10% of the particles floating around the stratosphere now come from the aerospace industry, and we don't know if this could impact the climate."
The National's latest "Holyrood Weekly Podcast": STV's Colin McKay asks Anas Sarwar 6 times if there is anything he disagrees with in the SNP #Gaza ceasefire motion.
Sarwar body swerves McKay's question. 6 times. He can't bring himself to acknowledge the SNP motion reflects - almost verbatim - the #OptionalIdentityMark's own conference motion!
Sarwar has zero influence over the UK leadership, or even his 2 "Scottish" MPs at Westminster.
@MadeyeTheCarnaptious It was clear that the majority of people at the Scottish Labour conference last weekend agreed with the SNP motion. That's when everything changed.
https://www.europesays.com/1032986/ Alister Jack admits he deleted all of his WhatsApp, allegedly to free up storage on his mobile phone… He tells the UK Covid Inquiry: “I didn’t delete some of the messages, I deleted all of them.” #Scotland#UnitedKingdom
@europesays A disgusting display of arrogance and a nasty and unprofessional tirade against NS. If Alister Jack thinks we believe his story about why he deleted HIS WhatsApp messages he's as stupid as the rest of the Tories #YouYesYet#Scotland
#channel4 news gives an overview of the #DoctorsStrikes in the UK nations, yet somehow manages to ignore the fact that there's no strike in #Scotland because #ScottishGovernment sat down and negotiated. Tories won't respect #Doctors just as they don't respect the rest of us #GTTO
We bust a gut to buy a house with solar panels, MVHR and heat pump, only to be placed in a higher council tax band than a family member in a bigger much less efficient house. Would be wonderful if govt would support sustainable dwellers #ClimateFight
Thanks Mary, Hugh and Kevin for a great programme.
Italy has sent a hospital ship to aid Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, says the country's Defense Ministry. The vessel comes equipped with operating rooms and medical staff.
The Woodland Trust in UK has issued a reminder for people not to put their pumpkins in the woods as wildlife such as Hedgehogs can become ill if they eat them.
When you've finished with your pumpkin they recommend that you put it in your recycling bin or cut it up and bury it in the garden for invertebrates to enjoy. #pumpkin#woodland#halloween#wildlife#hedgehogs#UnitedKingdom
