BBC Radio Scotland at it again. Despite being informed that violence is at its lowest for years they are continuing with their "Scotland is a terrible place" agenda!

Listening to discussion on radio about Starmer's plans to curb immigration. It's focussed on the necessity due to staff shortages in certain sectors. Surely it's more about pandering to racists?

So has JD Vance stated his preference for the new pope yet?

Despite what anyone claims, I can't help but worry that today's ruling will mean some people will take it as permission for continuing their bigotted behaviour.

Commentary seems to be moving that the UK can continue to suck up to Trump and let the rest suffer.

All the "tariff talk" is about the impact on jobs and prices. Not much on shareholder dividends.

Just heard on radio that Alan Cumming has declared the Tartan Day parade should be a protest against Trump. Good on you and welcome back to Scotland. (Deportation imminent?)

There seems to be an attitude among some that it doesn't matter what Trump does as long as he's doing it to someone else.

Would a parent whose child was being bullied tell that child to be grateful that they've only been punched and not hit with stick? Seems like this is what the UK gov is saying about Trump.

Maybe Vance is going to Greenland just because he wants to keep his wife on a short leash!

@BBCScotland is extensively reporting on the way the pandemic was managed by various agencies. Are they going to look at how their own coverage was handled?

Labour, aided and abetted by MSM, are demonising disabled people. Just like they did when they told us "millionaire pensioners" didn't need winter fuel payments.

Listening to a radio phone-in this morning. Labour have managed to re-open the tory debate on deserving and un-deserving poor!

Wes Streeting's comments go to show, if nothing else, that labour are indistinguishable from tories in their desire to scapegoat vulnerable groups.

If politicians are to be judged on their attire, I guess Trump is a communist.

Media this morning trying hard to find positives in Starmer/Trump meeting .... and failing.

BBCScotland focussing on Trump's Scottish heritage. So at least one media outlet is looking forward to the state visit? Why report news when you can just be a sycophant?

My new conspiracy theory? J D Vance's criticism of Scotland's buffer zone law was an advance to Catholics, the precursor to a Trump/Putin/Musk attempt to influence the next pontiff to join their oligarch summit for world domination. I wish it was pure fantasy!

When Starmer calls for Palestinians to be allowed to return home to Gaza, in what capacity does he have in mind? As citizens running their own country or as a cheap work-force to service Trump's envisioned luxury resort?

Is Trump now doing to Gaza and the Palestinians what he practiced by buying Scottish golf-courses and trying to kick out and exclude the locals?

CEO of Glasgow Disability Alliance has just been on GMS talking about why the NCS bill has failed. Will her criticisms of opposition parties, private financial interest, trade unions and others get any further airtime from BBCScotland?

Glen Campbell on BBC Radio Scotland has just stumbled through an article on the changes to the National Care Service Bill. He was trying so hard to avoid the fact that opposition parties will scupper this purely for their own purposes. Despite them wanting a NCS.

Trump has proclaimed that in the US there are only two genders. What's next? One is superior to the other?

How long before Trump supporters start their own round-ups of "illegal" looking people? After all they have been given a green light to take the law into their own hands.
