Keir Starmer wants to “smash the gangs," Rishi Sunak wanted to “stop the boats". But from what we witnessed in Dunkirk, the efforts of French police do not match the cunning of people smugglers, or the desperation of those willing to risk their lives.

If anyone on here knows my emotional pal from last night, please do help me get in touch. I’d like to buy him his breakfast this morning.
Football, eh? Enough to make a grown man in a kilt cry. Years of exile from international football’s greatest stage come to an end for Scotland. This was also just the 5th time Scotland have won a match at a World Cup. And this is the emotion of that victory. @itvnews

Summary from most fans leaving the stadium: “not great but a win’s a win, top of the group.”

It turns out @The_Proclaimers are massive in Haiti. And @BedjineD would be a hit in Scotland. The grilled goat meat & plantain I can vouch for. But I must add that handshake was unrelated to his chosen Scottish football team… For me, this is what the World Cup is all about.

There he is! “I would walk 3,000 miles…”
Waiting for the main man Craig Ferguson to reach ten finish line of his 3,000 mile march across America. What an atmosphere there is for him too.

Scotland - our nation of ‘warrior poets’ - will meet Haiti. @itvnews were invited to join our new Haitian friends here for some good food and good company learning what this tournament means to the most impoverished nation at the World Cup.

TL;DR? Here’s the price list
The Boston Stadium: a quick tour.

Boston’s Irish community welcoming the Scotland fans with confused/curious Americans staring at so many kilts suddenly arriving in their city.

But the atmosphere is noticeably lowkey so far. The World Cup kicks off tomorrow and, aside from some sparse memorabilia in shops, there’s little to indicate a city gripped by the hype of hosting the tournament here. Still, there’s time for that to change.

New statement from lawyer representing Nicola Sturgeon. Aamer Anwar says: “To make it abundantly clear it was not the role of the First Minister to sign off accounts, that was for the party treasurer. “Furthermore, there appears to be an assumption that as FM, when Mr Murrell was busy buying multiple pens or pepper pots etc she was with him, Ms Sturgeon was not, as unsurprisingly she was busy with other matters.”
Now the catalogue of crimes has been published, it reveals astonishing detail after detail about what Peter Murrell was buying with £400k of embezzled money. The man who first filed the police complaint that led to Operation Branchform now wants full refunds and an inquiry.
