Akira Kurosawa, Irvin Kershner, George Lucas & Francis Ford Coppola during the filming of 'Kagemusha' (1980).

It's a wealthy consumer's view of the Arts. 'There is no such thing as culture.'

'We've done hospitals. Bodies buried in the car opark. What's next? Refugee Camps? Why not?'

The Rwanda Bill has not deterred any of the 3,500 people who have crossed in small boats this year – but the UK Government have made many of them inadmissible for asylum, leaving them in limbo forever.

An independent Scotland would treat people far more humanely than this.

Bleakly amusing to see statements from folk who say they're cancelling holidays because the laws of the country they'd intended to visit discourage them from expressing hate for people.

June Slater What exactly were you planning to do in your lodge or in restaurants that has been affected by the Hate Crime Bill?

Ballot Box Scotland Ideally, Glasgow should incorporate all the adjacent suburbs, particularly the affluent ones who use the city’s services and drive cars into the city. The wealth in the suburbs only exists because of the commerce in the city.

This is infantilising of an electorate that voted for Cameron, Brexit, May and Johnson, all in accordance with the British constitution.

Trump will never show “consciousness of guilt” because he does not feel guilt. He gets off on impunity, on the utter lack of consequences for open crimes.

As I’ve said many times, Trump hates being punished but loves being caught. Know the difference.
