It’s beyond the realm of pure incompetence with ScotRail now. Not a single journey is comfortable now. Not one goes without crammed trains, lack of carriages, no toilet facilities, dirty seats & tables. To sit on a train for more than an hour to Largs paying what we do for that.

There is literally mobs of white yobs patrolling streets in England to make sure it isn’t people of colour or ethnic minority passing into through their town. Cllr Ferguson’s rhetoric on this subject has always been questionable.

Celtic fans at Easter Road: “Created by immigrants. Refugees welcome”. We need more of this anti-racist messaging in our society, especially in these worrying times. #HateWontWin

It isn’t contested because it’s an economic diktat which is edited and audited by the UK Treasury. The true indication of the Scottish Economy is always kept clouded and GERS is the report that backs it up. Regardless of whether it read well to Indy or not. It’s still unreliable.

As a trade unionist myself, this sort of rhetoric is more damaging to the movement than positive. While pay talks are clearly needed, the SG inherited an Abellio driven disaster with driver recruitment being non existent. ASLEF struggling to non-partisan here.

What chance have you got when snivelling weasels like this are the journalists of this country? The removal of off-peak fares was an SNP led initiative. The re-instatement of them is due to Labour cuts being handed out since gaining power.

The sooner ticketmasteruk and any other company related to them are closed down the better. I’d rather queue in the pissing rain and freezing cold that let those extortionists take my money. How they get away with it is baffling. #Oasis

We only went and scored on the back of the aforementioned “press”. But he’s right… they shat it from then on in knowing their game plan was figured pretty sharpish and found out. Another game and another spanking. Sit doon.

There’s offering options and there is enacting fantasies. Most of the options available require basically every single piece of land and property in Scotland to be valued or re-valued. While I agree we need an alternative, their options simply were not viable.
