Homosexual behaviour in animals is extremely common. Thinking that teaching reality about people to children will make them all go gay and humans go extinct is not normal.

Being gay is far more ‘normal’ than wearing a stupid hat indoors, which is considered very rude.

A years supply of dog food eh?

'It is [her] openness to the beauty that survives amid the dereliction, & the joy that survives amid the despair, that makes her book so extraordinary.' Here's a wee review I wrote of Jen Stout 's remarkable Night Train to Odesa, which is published today. bigissue.com/culture/books/…

I will be compering this fantastic line-up at The Stand tonight for International Workers Day. There will be tickets available on the door.

Kate Forbes' budgets when Finance Minister were so right wing you could be forgiven for thinking that John Swinney was still in the post

This is Galloway's 'workers' party!

Galloway is a prick. The last sentence was a real nutty belter, in a few seconds he has gone from saying same-sex relationships are not normal to imagining a world where humans no longer procreate!

Look at these lovely posters, ready for the launch on Friday. I'm absolutely chuffed to bits to be on the cover. Kenmure Street was such an important day and I'm proud to have played my part. (btw I'm standing because if I sat down I would struggle to get up if the polis charged)

I was raised a Catholic. We prayed for people across the planet facing war, famine etc. The idea that you had to be within some sort of zone for your prayers to be heard is something I have never come across. I think we all know why these people want to be at or near the clinics.

Stephen Watt It is a sectarian view. Forbes is not the keeper of the flame for Christianity in Scotland. Her views are neither representative of the Christian community nor the wider population. To argue that criticism of her views is anti Christian is dishonest and disrespectful

Kate Forbes is not unique in having views on certain issues contrary to her party or mainstream. Even people known as Republicans and socialists in Holyrood have done this. But the one that IS a problem is that she does not believe that women are capable of being church ministers

This is the best summary and analysis so far of the current situation at Holyrood. The supposed two wings of SNP/SGP agree on almost everything

1987 in Kilmarnock, Thomas Taft's band UP played too, was one of the best night we had at Vikkis, The Clouds were a brilliant live band.
