Sturgeon currently on Loose Women (can't define what a woman is), waffling and not being questioned to any great length.
Her great achievement in charge for 8 years, baby boxes (tax payer funded). Weren't Boots the Chemist doing baby boxes in the late 80s.
She is still technically FM of Scotland, so I don't know why she is on the daytime discussion show, except I do. It is all me, me, me, me... must get front and centre... me, me, me.
OK, JL, that's cheered me up after your last post :)
However you missed out on Fred the non-binary bison. I was laughing when I wrote about it last night. I'm still laughing. 'How could you lead the herd if you're not true to yourself'. Ohhh, help me!
I've dug in for a second contribution as I know many have.
Going off to look down the back of the settee now...
Thanks for the good news. I think we're all feeling a little weary and despondent at the moment. I suppose it's inevitable - you see the public become aware of one aspect and react in horror and then you can't understand a) why they can't join all the dots and see the big picture and b) why everybody seems to have forgotten it all 3 days later.
I watched the young Australian woman give her speech on the Melbourne livestream and it brought me to tears. She expresses the anger that I feel. Going to share the video with my daughters who are too ‘kind’ to realise the perils.
BTW, at the Melbourne rally the TRAs brought In a group of ‘Nazis’ so they could be photographed near the women thus proving that KJK is a NeoNazi. KJK must really be getting to them.
The TRAs were also punching police horses- I kid you not. The Let Women Speak events show beautifully how unhinged the opposition really is.
The BMJ article still sounds mealy mouthed to me. Why aren’t they questioning whether gender dysphoria is actually a thing? You know, go back to basics and question the origin of the whole thing. Does it really exist as a medical phenomenon? They seem to just accept that it is.
Spot the only thing that Baroness Casey doesn't accuse the Met Police of: “Do I think that they should say they are institutionally racist? Yes, I do. Do I think they should say they are institutionally sexist? Yes, I know they are. Do I think they should say they are institutionally homophobic? Yes, I do.”
But swathe yourself in pink, white and baby blue and you've got a get out of jail free card.
Understand your sentiments Ewan but I could not hold my head up in Glasgow if that klutz wins. He is my MSP and utterly useless. Did he pass his quali?
Should also say Ewan that Ian McWhirter writes in the Spectator today that word has it that Kate Forbes is ahead in the votes cast so far. Hope he’s right. She’s not perfect but I do like honesty and I think she’s got that.
Ash Regan doesn’t seem to have a big enough share of the votes coming her way. I am seeing her as Education minister I think. That way she can keep Tra dross out of the schools.
Am I right in thinking that Parliamentary rules state that MPs should not be receiving direct donations from anyone? If so, why is that NOT applied to the parties as well.
Feels like there is a conflict of interest here and a massive, gaping loophole has been used to get the backhanders through.
I actually think that maybe Political party donations should *only* be from indivdual donors who are members of that party (eg via membership contributions and then additional donations). Not groups, NGOs, charities or any lobby group. That ALL donations must be recorded in full and publicly viewable. Any party that takes any donation like this one, should be fined twice as much as the donation given.
Thanks JL, did you notice that we were all sounding a bit depressed and were in urgent need of good news? 😆
Haha! Sadly, I don't have that power; it's the boss who decides when to publish. (And when I say 'the boss', I mean Graham, not Bruce Springsteen!)
Oh god, did he? Very disappointed to hear that.

That baby kangaroo 🦘 is so cute 🥰 . Thanks JL
Isn't it?! I can't stop watching. I want that job!
The dog reminds me of...well me basically. Staring blankly into space ( seeking inspiration, of course) with my hand on the mouse :)
Dusty
You've just described all talented writers :)
Phew, that's a relief . Let me just stare into space again :)
The kangaroo is good- except that my initial reaction was 'not another weirdo in a furry costume...'
Bahahaha! :-)
🦘 🦘🦘🦘

Has anyone called the TRAs Blackskirts yet? If not I'm claiming it
Perfect!
The Melbourne ones are more blackshirty than the usual black pampers in England who are grubby and a bit sad looking.

Oh, faer faek's sake 😂
Only just over 2k to go on Graham's target.

Some sunshine would help as well!
JL - another legend in the Terv wars! Thank you.

My nephew in NZ sent me this which is a good insight into who these Nazi dumplings are.
Thanks as always JL
Pleasure as always, Petal!

If you're SNP and a Terf surely it has to be Ash Regan?

That would be good at least. Well hopefully Kate Forbes won't waste taxpayers money on challenging the UK Government's use of the Scotland Act?
Didn't I read somewhere that the Lib Dems have received a large donation from a puberty blocker manufacturer? Just a coincidence, I'm sure...

Why is this not massive news?
*Takes deep breath as the extent of media capture passes before her inner eye, then faints before she can exhale*
Captured media.
My pleasure, Elswick!
