Amateurs talk about lenses. Pros talk about tripod heads.

Tulchan Communications is the name of the company that recruits Question Time audiences, isn't it?

Yeah... trite, derivative, often with a mean-spirited small-mindedness.

That said, those antecedents are strong and lots have enjoyed the stories.

Try Susan Cooper, Ursula le Guinn and Joan Aiken. You know where C.S. Lewis is if you can hack the Christian allegory.

Because they have not yet grown up?

Would you say more oil money was poured into London than was poured into Oslo?

Some people got to have nice things.

What's the core British value here: self-delusion? Fantasism?

Are you aware of The National's reporting?

By coming out as a Scottish Nationalist, Sarwar has iced the cake of his British party's collapse.

She was third in the final training run. With her ACL injury.

Well, same as me.

Looks pretty good. Is that partly whole flour?

Not really. The same spokesman for Peter Thiel could answer.

I like the 'denies' headline, just bemused that the text seems to accept the denial.

It's a curious journalistic artifact to discard Ehud Barak's 'owner' in favour of Peter Thiel's 'partner', while simultaneously confirming an investment. Doesn't sound like a loan. Was ownership in the fund structured as equity? How is a partner in a fund not an owner?

Sad to read this. Jeane was a force to be reckoned with.

Send it back to Chorleywood, along with all the pappy burger buns.

Yeah, well. Ignoring complaints is part of the same MO that creates their deceit in the first place.

I think folk expect to see the rebuttals made publicly - so necessarily through direct channels like social media.

You've been writing to the BBC? Why?!

Everyone in Brexitania knows the proper way is to go independent, *then* notice there's no scaffolding.

It's par-for-the-British-course that Scottish salmon is *Britain's* biggest food export, Scottish whisky *Britain's* biggest drink or food export, and what they acknowledge are downmarket local-market sweet snacks & a Glasgow-meme soda pop.

It reads as deliberate humiliation

Scotland already has a bunch of nukes. Hit us up for tips.

Basic media grammar:

- look at liars askance
- openly wear your expression of disbelief
- address the camera
- cut to credible, charismatic expert who stops quietly chuckling to simply & concisely rebut

Even by his own numbers the guy has Scotland consuming 20% or sumthin ae the UK's gasoline. Izaff izheed. A block for me.

Yeah, his posts don't really add up. Amazing how many English-speakers are lined up with foreign interests these days.

Europe - home to Kaiser Bill - knows all about personalist incompetence.

Americans would do well too to recognise that the Meiji revolution - the turning point in Japan's fortunes - was a victory of communal expertise over personalist failure.

Yes... and people not noticing that it's 25Bn across the UK - all from Scotland's oil - is why that sleight-of-hand works.

Really enjoying your hard-headed genius, tho'. Tell me more, imperialist.

Low-extraction-tax-high-tax-at-the-pumps is the trick that quietly shifts oil wealth off Scotland's books.

In spite of which the 90Bn-odd revenue amply covers the 60Bn budget.

Just need to stop wasting 30Bn on British incompetence & corruption.
