Distressingly, @edinhelp there is a dead fox cub on the road in Liberton Brae, just below Orchardhead Rd. Could it be removed please?

As a former Chair I've written to the SAC cautioning them not to impose an inquiry on the Murrell prosecution. Select committees work best when they work consensually in cross party inquiry and this is beyond remit. It took one side in the indyref and lost credibility as a result

Douglas Alexander broke the law by not declaring he met with Mandelson's lobbying firm. His position as Secretary of State for Scotland is now untenable. The story is so big even BBC Scotland isn't ignoring it.

A Tory health minister asked me in 2017 how #Scotland had set up #CommunityPharmacies & Minor Ailment Services over 10 years earlier.
They will now finally be rolled out across #England
- 20 years after #Scotland!

In the last term, The SNP invested in the vital restoration of the Kings Theatre. A disastrous Tory mini-budget and Brexit later, the entire project could fail just as ground was being broken on the site.
The Kings belongs to the cities residents and we have a plan to save it.

The comments about new MSPs taking the oath in different languages is somehow ‘colonising’ Scotland 😭
Being bilingual is a skill, not a threat. Some people hear another language for 10 seconds and act like the country is under attack.
Embarrassing.
