I dunno, if you want to hold the UK together in the long run, you need to acknowledge that the devolved nations have more faith and trust in their devolved govts than in the UK govt, that the devolved govts know their nations better than you, and therefore you ought to defer to them on many matters.

In 2010, a blog like Stuff White People Like or a twitter account like shitmydadsays could land their creator a book deal or a TV show.

In 2026, social media creators are writing and directing short films and playing every role - to this standard - and there's another one right after in the feed.

[Scene is a domestic kitchen. Night time. The room is all blue apart from warm orange-pink light streaming in from a streetlight outside. In the center of the room stands a woman named BRANDI, standing in pyjamas looking contemplative, the light cast dramatically on her face. At the doorway, leaning against the frame, her partner JOEL stands has woken up and found her in the kitchen.] JOEL: Honey… what are you doing? BRANDI: Can’t sleep Guess I just like standing in the kitchen at 3am thinking about the supernatural threat we temporarily defeated last year. While saying that out loud in a manner which sounds casually ironic but is actually just blatant exposition. JOEL: Brandi… you're talking strange... BRANDI: Dammit Joel. It’s time you knew. You're a Netflix character. [Joel looks shocked] BRANDI: Everybody you know has been forced to speak to you in second screen dialogue. Second screen dialogue helps the people scrolling their phones in front of the TV to follow the - JOEL: Stop explaining, Brandi!

We bought a coat rack, and I hung it up today.

A more accurate description would be…

We bought a coat rack in 2007, and I hung it up today.

I always said I would get round to it. Today was that day.

Scotrail - Scotland’s publicly owned railway - is seeing record numbers of passengers returning to rail travel with high satisfaction levels and lower fares thanks to the support of the SNP Government.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Definitely worth a read. And worth thinking about too:

Picture of Jeane Freeman

Jeane Freeman 1953-2026

Theirs was a demonstration of remarkable service to others - that’s how I think of Jeane. (And in the front row, third to the left of the woman in black, hand on hip under the cloak - that’s nurse Louisa Jordan).

Huge love to Susan and the family.

In a way her approach was simple - once there is a deal in place to get something done then you better keep up your end of it, as she certainly would keep up hers.

When she ‘retired’ from Parliament I sent her a picture of a group from the Scottish Women’s Hospitals for Foreign Service from 1914…

Absolutely core to Jeane’s view of the world was the wellbeing of others, particularly those whose voices weren’t always being heard.

Heartbroken that Jeanne has passed away. I was her Spad when she was Health Secretary, she was just remarkable. That’s a tough job at the best of times, but Jeane did it during the pandemic.

I have cleaned-up this fascinating autochrome of James Thin (famous for his chain of bookshops), who was born 202 years ago (in Edinburgh on 23rd March 1824), making him (so far as is currently known) the earliest-born person ever to have been photographed in colour. He is seen here in the garden...
