#DepartmentQ is now No.1 in UK and No.2 globally on Netflix. FirstStage, co-founded by Bob Last and Jason Connery, has become a cornerstone of Scotland’s screen infrastructure. Delighted that success has, in part, been possible with Scot Gov funding. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Tomorrow, voters in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse will have first say on the choice that all of us in Scotland will face next year: #VoteSNP to stop the party of Nigel Farage. Let’s not give the far-right a foothold. Vote SNP to keep The Scottish Parliament Farage-free.

This is the latest defector to Farage - a Scottish Labour councillor! Vote Labour - get Farage. Neither Labour or the Tories are standing up effectively against Farage, so it's more important than ever to vote for @theSNP. #VoteSNP

Let’s build a Scotland that’s united, that aspires to be better, that rejects hate. Farage doesn’t have a clue about Scotland - and Labour is too weak to stop him. In the by-election next Thursday, only @katyloudonsnp.bsky.social and the SNP can stop Farage. Vote for hope. #VoteSNP

Nigel Farage has today posted another video trying to inject his racist poison into Scotland. He is out of step with the values of our country and we must unite together to stop him.

Grateful for @ScreenScots and industry partners who have worked hard to persuade the BBC of the merits of greater local investment. BBC say productions will need 70% of production budget locally and/or draw significantly on local programme-makers & crew to produce the show.

Welcome rethink about BBC commissioning after concerns and criticism. Change in approach will hopefully influence other public service broadcasters, as well as OFCOM, and help Scottish screen sector grow to £1bn annual industry. 📺🎥🎬🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Edinburgh Council’s handling of EIJB funding has been unacceptable. While emergency funds are welcome, they do not provide needed long-term security for vital organisations that support the most vulnerable in the city.

Improving relations with the European Union is a good thing - but doing so by undermining the fisheries sector is not. There is no decent substitute for being an independent member state of the EU.

UK Govt has agreed a fisheries (devolved) deal with EU in principle, without any recourse, involvement or approval of Devolved Administrations. Scottish Government received no documentation or draft proposals in advance. I asked UK minister last week for this. Nothing received. Reset?

Keir Starmer engaged in ugly, damaging, & disgraceful rhetoric no different to that spouted by Nigel Farage. To be clear to refugees & migrants in Scotland: You are welcome here. Your contributions to our communities, NHS, care homes, & businesses are hugely valued.

The top-class journalism Kirsty Wark has produced over some years (and the forensic political questioning many of us have experienced), make her a worthy winner of a BAFTA fellowship. Chapeau to Alan Cumming for his stellar hosting, too. 2 Scots at the top of their game.

Scot Gov’s Meeting Scotland’s Migration Needs strategy points out that maintaining even modest economic growth requires net migration of around 25,000 a year—levels that Westminster’s new cap will make impossible. It seems now Starmer is interested in grievance - not growth.

Extremely moving debate in the Scottish Parliament with powerful speeches for and against assisted dying legislation. The bill passed at stage one by 70 votes to 56, with one abstention. I voted in favour.
