This Sunday the Knights face Stirling for the third time this season, this time in the BUCS Tier 1 Northern Semi-Finals. The game will once again be hosted at Sighthill Park, with a 12 noon kickoff on Sunday the 2nd of March. 🏈⚔ #oneteamcommitted

We've just witnessed Trump try to bully a nation into submission for money and resources. His behaviour has been capricious and reprehensible. The UK should do no deal with him, rescind the State Visit invite & kick their military out. We'll have to quarantine US soon anyway on health grounds.

I am so sick of big countries bullying smaller countries and siding with the aggressor and not the victims. We cannot stand by and allow one such leader into our country at the expense of the tax payer. If you agree, will you sign? #StandWithUkraine #Palestine you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

The only president that should be offered a state visit is Zelensky. #StandWithUkraine

We wouldn't be this cold if we still got the winter heating allowance. ❄️

Gingerbread house complete. Christmas can officially begin! Wishing you all a good one!

The BBC complaining to Apple that a new app created a fake BBC headline will never stop being hilariously ironic.

Scotland has a population of less than six million people yet its resources generate enough electricity for twenty five million people every day which is transferred to England and then sold back to Scottish consumers who are then charged the highest prices in Europe to use their own energy.

This was the most exciting game I've seen for a while. Knights take the win and move to 5-0 in the table. #OneTeamCommitted 🗡⚔️🏈

We can confirm that Sundays fixture against Aberdeen has now been confirmed as a walkover win by BUCS, putting the Knights to 4-0 for the season. Next fixture is away to Stirling on the 8th of December. 🏈⚔ #oneteamcommitted

If the decision settlement is being destroyed in front of our eyes then it should work both ways. Scottish government should now take control of reserved matters, including the right to have a referendum. Seems only fair 🤔

So Starbucks UK are changing their rewards scheme in the New Year. Currently you need to spend £150 to get to Gold Status. Next year you will have to spend £250!!! And they frame it like getting 10 points instead of 3 for each point you spend will be a good thing. Do they think we zip up the back???

Wonder if we in Scotland will ever get the chance 🤔

I'd love to see Stephen Flynn lead the SNP and bring about independance. #YouYesYet #IndyClan

UN says Scotland CAN have a ref under UN law & it will be recognised by international law It was added - “once in a lifetime” was nonsense rhetoric & has No legal standing! @thesnp.bsky.social just do it & have stricter rules on who can vote ie settler colonialism is a crime U stilll have mandate!

In the 1970s, Norway and Scotland both struck oil. Norway, ruled by Norwegians, got a sovereign wealth fund worth £250,000 per Norwegian. Scotland, ruled by Westminster, got food banks. It's time we ended WM rule and ruled ourselves.

Better off indy

I am so sick of shrinkflation. Dolmio jars used to be 500ml, now only 450ml. Not enough now in one jar to make the family meals,but 2 jars is too much. Just keep the jar the same size and put the price up!!!
