You better believe I saved this image after Hearts won 3-2 at Tannadice back in August. Top of the league after every round of fixtures since MD6 back in September and were Champions right up until the 87th minute on MD38. Del the bottle job.

Actually I wrote that in Scotland. But, hey, why let facts get in the way. City GDP per capita is quite a slippery concept but let’s stick with it and cherry pick Edinburgh. On the other hand: Scottish GDP per capita is almost 10% below UK average. Public spending is now 52% of GDP — a good socialist level — yet Scottish public services are in many cases (schools, NHS waiting lists) worse than England. Public spending per person is £2,669 more than UK average but revenue per person is £578 less. Hence your £26 billion budget deficit — an incredible 12% of GDP. Nowhere in Europe comes close. Westminster fills the gap — or you’d be bust. You’re welcome.
Edinburgh now has the highest GDP per capita of any UK city. Since 2008 Scotland’s productivity growth has been double that of the UK. You should try visiting here more often @afneil rather than writing specious drivel from France.

pro-indyref parties’ vote shares: constituency = 40.5% list = 41.2% the idea that these figures in any way, shape or form constitute an indyref2 mandate is for the birds (or the arithmetically challenged)

Plus this is on a turnout of around half the voting population. But that misses the point. The SNP and Greens know they have no way to deliver independence. It was never about Indy. It was about securing another five years of earnings and lifestyle they couldn’t get anywhere else

Harry Kane spent 31 years of his life trying to win a trophy but in the end had to go to Germany to win something and it still took him 2 seasons. Benzema has 5 UCLs, 12 Ballon d’or nominations, a Ballon d’or, and a much better big game record than that serial loser.

Just me who doesn’t remember the last time people on a yacht went round stabbing innocent people?
Been driving past this ‘stop the boats’ graffiti for weeks. Glad to see someone fixed it.

A minimum wage of £15 would end my coffee shop, it would have to close, as would many other businesses. I’ll explain for the economically illiterate. Staff costs are currently half our costs, a £15 minimum wage is actually more than £15 an hour for the company, because you have to add: - 12.07% holiday - Sick pay - Maternity pay if and when required - National insurance - Pension contributions These costs would mean the shop loses money because remember, energy costs are up, rates are up, regulations are up. Now you can pass these costs onto the consumer - that would mean charging a lot more for coffee, people won’t pay it. The likes of Starbucks and Costa can, because they have economies of scale. The independent doesn’t. Now the little socialist will say well this is your fault, if you can’t run a business that can afford to pay its staff properly, but the little socialist has never run a business and does not understand the dynamics. Now I could pay some staff off and fill those hours myself or reduce us to one staff member during certain periods - but this proves the point that a minimum wage costs jobs. There was a time when these jobs were done by kids, perhaps on the weekend, paid a lower wage, no holiday and no silly employment rights. Perhaps they were even paid cash. The dynamic worked and small businesses like this could operate. It was also a great first job. Sadly now it isn’t worth employing entitlement youngsters at this level of pay. So alas, I don’t need the stress, the business would close, a number of jobs would be lost. Economics is about understanding these dynamics, no vibes. The cost of living is not solved through passing on inflation to the business, it is solved by ending high inflation and creating prosperity. This is what socialists don’t understand, they can’t create prosperity, they can only destroy it.
The Greens will raise the minimum wage to £15 for all workers 💪

You can make stats say anything you want. How about this one, Last season United finished higher than any Dundee side since 1962.
In the last 10 years Dundee have won the same amount of Premiership derbies at Tannadice as United. In that same period Dundee have won 6 derbies across the major competitions compared to United's 4. In that same period United have been relegated at Dens Park. They don't accept mediocrity though! 😂👍🏻

Don’t want to ruin the rivalry spirit and I’ve said it before but, I think Goodwin & Pressley come across very well, win, lose or draw, they never claim they were cheated or point an agenda, mostly it’s just pure honesty and backing their own players in the media.👍🏻

“People were saying to me before the game that it mattered more to Dundee than Dundee United because we’ve got nothing to play for” “That’s not the culture that we’re trying to create here. We will maintain high standards between now and the end of the season” - Jim Goodwin
