So Rachel Reeves' big infrastructure investment to boost the Scottish economy is... ...drum roll... ...a third runway at London Heathrow Airport. Nothing for Wales or Northern Ireland either. They're not even bothering to hide their Anglo-centric contempt for the rest of the UK.

The Scottish Parliament has just unanimously called on the UK government to compensate WASPI women, which the UK Labour government refused to do. The SNP has stood with the WASPI women for years, and we will stand with them until justice is delivered.

Just finishing off writing my graphics for tonight's DEBTBUSTER special @itvMLshow live 8pm (slash credit card, loan, overdraft, costs, help with BNPL, what to do if in debt crisis and more). Please do watch or set the Betamax, and spread word to those who may find it useful.

Very welcome news that unemployment in Scotland has fallen to 3.8% and is lower than the rest of the UK. Scotland’s economy has grown faster than the rest of the UK, but we need to do more to deliver growth and progress - I will be setting out views in a speech tomorrow.

Fascinating article about some overlooked & neglected Scottish languages www.thebottleimp.org.uk/2013/05/a-di...

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

We were in @broadcastscot.bsky.social studio yesterday. Getting some advice for a filming project we’ve taken on. As ever a very generous response from Linda. She has created an excellent setup. She needs people to make the best use of it.

We’ll be recording this event! Really looking forward to it. This Sunday 2pm, Hillhead Library. If you haven’t read Mary McCabe’s two novels they are “Stirring the Dust" & "Two Closes and a Referendum".

I extend my warmest thanks to everyone at CalMac Ferries for ensuring that MV Glen Sannox was able to enter service today, and to start the important work of serving our island communities.

No! BBC Mark Schwarzer. Oldest football cup in the world is the Scottish Cup which was first won in 1874 and the oldest trophy in association football. NOT! the English FA Cup. Also Scotland is the home of football taken worldwide by the Scottish Professors hampdencollection.com/scotchprofes...

This Find Out Now poll puts Labour & Reform on 25%, with the Tories - moving ever further to the far right on 20%, hard right English nationalist parties now have 45% vote share between them. There is no safe place for Scotland in this UK #YouYesYet findoutnow.co.uk/blog/voting-...

Eradicating child poverty is an investment in our people, not a cost to be borne. SNP policies like the Scottish Child Payment are already keeping an estimated 100,000 children out of poverty. Our Budget will do more by acting to lift the two-child limit. youtube.com/shorts/DjNN9...

The proper (and official) name for Greenland is Kalaallit Nunaat, it's the only territory in North America where an indigenous language is the sole official language. Its population is 90% Inuit. I'm sure they are feeling terribly reassured by how the USA has treated its indigenous inhabitants.

Another valuable article to further the case for Scottish Self Determination. Good work Prof! much appreciated

And Scotland pays more for the energy we supply, are you yes yet.

I have always been particularly suspicious of the well funded Vote No Borders Campaign, headed by a Tory donor, now Lord, & heavily promoted by the BBC as a "grassroots campaign" while genuine pro-indy grassroots initiatives were completely ignored.

The opening of UK govt archives after decades reveals the lengths Westminster went to to discourage Scots Indy long before it became a serious political reality. This raises the question - what has Westminster been up to in the run up to the 2014 indyref & since that they are hiding from Scotland?

BBC News at 6 suggesting that cancer waiting lists in Scotland are only 'slightly' shorter though that means 12 000 English patients a year would have been seen on time had they lived under SNP Government: talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2024/12/17/c...

Just a reminder that we're taking a slightly extended break following the festive holiday to recharge our collective batteries for what's sure to be a very busy year. We'll be open again at 246 High Street, Perth, on Wednesday 15 January, from 10 am to 4 pm. See you then!

I just had some clown moaning that a columnist for @scotnational.bsky.social commenting on BBC's impartial journalism is like Boris Johnson commenting on fidelity Neither I nor @scotnational.bsky.social claim to be impartial on independence. BBC Scotland does. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT
