@BorisJohnson could always call his buddy @realDonaldTrump to discuss a US trade deal... for the next 2 weeks until @Potus @JoeBiden also snubs him. Enjoy the 'control' and 'sovereignty' Little Britain

Extraordinary story by @MattChapmanUK who undertook 2-year FOI battle to get details of secret meeting between British govt & Zuck. Hancock bent over backwards to suck up to FB & undermine parliament's investigation into Cambridge Analytica & fake news thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2020-1…

'Stop immigration Reject Common Market Make Britain great again Scrap overseas aid Vote National Front' Amazing & horrifying. It took 50 years but the National Front has triumphed

This is the year after I was born - 1970. A National Front poster of the time. And our government's current policy. The NF was considered fascist btw - and with good reason

200,000 retail jobs gone this year according to @Keir_Starmer... the number that @altusgroup projected before #Covid. It was a 'forever recession' before the virus. Shoulda thought about reskilling/upskilling years ago!! @NicolaSturgeon @jamiehepburn

Captain Hindsight here with a Tweet highlighting these issues in Jan 2019... a year before Covid! WhatIf... Derek MacKay and @theSNP listened more to non-celebs who get money for ferries before becoming bad loans? Cc @DWP @jamiehepburn @JohnSwinney

@Channel4 tonight... How @Amazon took over the world. In the UK concern about @Debenhams and Arcadia as the high street dies. Innovate or die... and look at how insightful @Marc_Smith was 30 years ago

Given the state of Sauchiehall Street and/or Mike Ashley complaining about online retailers... here's an understatement from 1992 (2 years BEFORE Amazon) “virtual spaces may undermine the economies that lead to the development of cities” via @Marc_Smith microsoft.com/en-us/research…

Bet there isn't an MP or MSP among these poor souls. IMHO every politican should live like their poorest costituants for a month. Maybe then the 'honourable' group who 'got into politics to make a difference' might actually make a difference to people!

Andrew Marr to Nicola Sturgeon- "You said closing the educational attainment gap was a moral challenge for Scotland and you wanted to be judged by that. On that judgement, you have failed." Education is suffering under the SNP. But all they care about is Independence.
