Not a Labour voter, but this UK Labour approach has been piloted for years by Scottish Labour where they would willingly align closely to Tory policy just to not be aligning to SNP. In fact would also form pacts with Tories on local councils just to stop SNP control. Always seen as Red Tories

Our new report: local political parties are renting out office space to MPs β€” who claim the cost on expenses.

But in most cases, they pay no tax on that income β€” or on rent from local businesses.

We reviewed 630 sets of accounts. What we found is a systemic failure. 🧡

It is an outstanding piece of television. They don't have too much volume of content, but some of the Apple TV stuff is superb. Ted Lasso *chef's kiss*

Same Tesco who mandated staff to stay home yesterday (right decision btw), but don't want to pay them for those shifts. With their pay cutoff today there will be workers who will be in financial difficulty as any replacement shifts are going into the next pay

Need a price point change too. I can buy enough Custard Creams to feed me all day for less than the price of a packet of Garibaldi

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could β€œshare a photo of Kevin with the whole worldβ€œ. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! πŸŸπŸ‘‹

Definite parallels with the Tech Bros on that ego part, stir in some narcissism, and some mummy or daddy issues and you can cast that net over Zuckerberg, Musk, and Bezos

I only picked up painting a couple of years ago (age 48 when I started) with no art background at school, and only do it for 2 hours a week at a class. Here are a couple of my works so far

Ice is wild out there today in Paisley, assume same across the rest of the Central Belt too. Rain fell briefly last night about 11pm on top of already frozen pavements so it froze and black ice everywhere. If out with dogs and do find gritted pavements remember to clean grit off their paws after

Could also reduce the water consumption by peeing outdoors. There's this chap called Donald that has acres set aside that must need some water or fertiliser

Scotland not without its bawbag elements, diff I see is more are prepared to see the greater good and more won't turn blind eye to problems. Most of us are very aware of the demographic of our population and recognise the contribution and value added by those that choose to make Scotland their home

Or any time of the day to be fair. Wonder if it is harder to come by the marching powder now out of the Houses of Parliament so reverted back to his student days
