I know that firing public sector workers is popular if you label them "bureaucrats", but who exactly is Sarwar talking about? Everyone I know in the NHS has told me at least one way in which the chipping away of managerial and support staff has led to that workload falling on frontline workers.

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

The scale of the sheer idiocy at the heart of this would, in a sensible country, mark the end of a career as any sort of commentator or serious person. In Britain, not so much.

There's been (inexplicably, IMO) some debate over the source of Reform UK's growth in Scotland (e.g. a few unionists claim that the flow to them is from the SNP). Looking at the latest polling, that very clearly isn't the case. The story is the total fragmentation of Scottish Labour's vote:
