Yes I agree, you can't have the migration of politics from Farage (he has become more extreme, and also more enmeshed in the global right) or Lowe without X

Perhaps this time they will learn after it achieves a stern talking to from the police of the metropolis

Wondering if he does still run his accounts or if this is a (catastrophic) error by his comms team

Pretty spectacularly so considering he used to be relatively normal part of the ecosystem and now he's posting about phrenological make up of the deep south

The expected Lennon v Marra now appears to be on. Nominations of 3 each of MSPs; MPs; affiliates to get onto the ballot, so certainly possible for other candidates to make it.

I don't remember him being as weird, and certainly not a white supremacist, as he appears to be? Fascinated by how he has ended up there?

I had forgotten about this guy! A stalwart of bygone old UK politics twitter

Just one more obligation on teachers bro, just one more, that'll fix the economy, I swear

32% of people name mass migration vs 29% for political extremism - which is equal by MoE! People with concerns about extremism heavily skew left, thus concern is largely about rise of the far right/anti-immigration. Reporting, nor gov policy, certainly doesn't reflect these equal levels of concern!

Bleak contextual wildfire data. Wildfire management capabilities a significant climate crisis-induced demand on govt resources. UK well off-pace (for obvious reasons) on this front and will need to catch up. www.ft.com/content/4586...

Eh?

Have the FM or the justice secretary made any comment? I looked on their X accounts (well used) and there was nothing

And indeed that their ambition for the deep state they imagine is so... lame? Like you think there's a vast nefarious government conspiracy to... reorganise some office buildings?

I've been out of Glasgow at a wedding today, but hope and trust everyone has been able to stay safe.

We need to be serious about the rise of fascism here. This is Scotland's problem and we must actively see it off. I've seen more Nazi salutes this year in Glasgow than I'd ever hoped to. We need leaders, to creatively find solutions to rampant hate and misinfo, and to dismantle these groups.

Large fascist presence in Glasgow today, including I think, SYL. Footage circulating shows lots of groups who have appeared to have given police the slip, running in all directions including through Tradeston and down Argyll Street. Deeply concerning, esp. amid the fun of the Commonwealth games.

Also iirc it was reported the TNT offer blew the BBC's out the water in a big way. National broadcaster can't pay commercial money, always been the case tbf

If you scroll down on this rather unglamorous announcement of ministers, there is an asterisk which says the king is pleased to appoint him to the lords. Don't know what the process is before he becomes officially Lord Sarwar of Pollokhields or whatever.

Awfully nice honeymoon you've got there, Andy. It would be a shame if anything... happened to it...

Designated Survivor UK reboot, I'm interested
