Hand wringing from a former senior politician whose fingerprints are all over the debacle in #Afghanistan.

This is the nonsense being peddled by a prominent Alba blogger, and eagerly devoured by the anti-SNP acolytes, they have truly become 'The enemy within' ! !

@GordonHepburn I don’t know why you are so willingly trying to undermine those who seek independence. Wouldn’t it be better to add your voice to ours?

My buddy who helped the US Gov in Afghanistan and now lives here just told me the Taliban is going door to door in his town with a list. They are taking anyone who worked with the US or UN in any capacity. So far 12 people have disappeared just in his village.

Please add your name to the petition demanding an end to "fire and rehire". It's a loophole that lets companies fire staff and rehire them on a way worse contract. Please add your name: the.organise.network/campaigns/team…

Watch Russia and China now be the first to legitimise the Taliban in Afghanistan. Why? Afghanistan, along with China, is the world's biggest sources for Lithium. Everyone ready for electric cars/lorries/planes in a few years?

Better Together?

How to prove you haven’t read Adam Smith without saying you haven’t read Adam Smith 😂

archive.is/2Qtoc this is a fascinating article about the impact of Brexit on Scottish football. So why am I reading this on an American news website, when every single 'Scottish' paper ignores the issue entirely.

This is worth a read even if you're not into football. It shows the sheer amount of red tape inflicted upon Scottish businesses by Brexit. And we're to suffer years of this, according to the current First Minister? Nonsense. She's not even a Pretender, at least he had a plan.

The bottom of this, is pretty much how GERS operates - fullfact.org/europe/our-eu-… Thus should give a clear estimate of our own, that the return on investment, of "Westminster" subsidy of the ungrateful Jocks is similar.

Because they have total impunity.

Just noticed this after an earlier tweet of the same photo! Look at the size of britain compared to the rest of Europe??? Doubled in size??? #NeverUnderestimateTheEmpire

Better photo....

My big read today on anti-Taliban resistance in the making and where now for Afghanistan. thenational.scot/politics/19529…

If the deal goes ahead, the Greens will be in government in Scotland before the Tories ever did. And that's just one of the many delicious reasons driving them nuts.

Tony Blair is paid around £1m a year as an international advisor to an organisation called the Mubadala Development Fund in the UAE It has been reported that Mubadala has been developing a plan to mine US$1 trillion worth of resources in Afghanistan. Skin in the game?

Why do moths stand like this? Have you seen the size of mothballs

Bizarre moment on the 'Sunday Show' when Shona Craven was highlighting online attacks on the FM by a far right Youtube channel, she was cut off by the presenter who said "Let's go into that in a bit more detail later in the programme ..." They never returned to it.
