Scotland's new SNP leader Yousaf: I will challenge UK veto on gender reform bill

The newly elected leader of the Scottish National Party Humza Yousaf said Britain had no right to...

Excellent news for unionists up here, a classic case of utter incompetence being no barrier to progression nowadays. Let him pursue the lunacy that  helped bring down Sturgeon, and see where it gets him with the silent majority of NORMAL people.

Whilst I agree that it bodes well for the Union, I fear the fu**wit will only serve to run the country further into the ground based on his record so far, at a time when we need sensible leadership.

 

I never thought I'd say this but maybe the country will see sense and vote in Labour at the next election - they can't be that much worse than the current holders of power in these parts?

 

Another disappointing thing is that I suspect that Yousaf's govt will be more inclined to paper over the cracks that NS left behind, whereas maybe Forbes might have opened some of them up a bit further.  Time will tell.

Without doubt he will try and protect her so called legacy, he’s held and utterly ****************ed up in several roles under her reign so in reality has no choice but to try and carry the mantle so to speak. You’re right I think Forbes would have let the truth about many things come  out.

If Jeremy Corbyn stands as an independent, Keir Starmer will feel the full force of his mistake

The decision is bizarre and counterproductive

What you see is not what you get with Starmer it would seem.

Sometimes you'd swear that Labour are determined to do everything possible to keep the Tories in power.

Labour are miles ahead in the polls, not least because Starmer has kicked out Corbyn.

Thus getting the backing of the popular press.

Russia take their turn presiding over the business of the UN Security Council today.

 

Whilst actively engaged in war in Ukraine and whilst Putin has an arrest warrant from the Hague against him for war crimes, they take Presidency at the United Nations.

 

There's still a flicker of hope for humanity though as other UN members like the USA, France and UK will 'probably' be represented by a less important dignitary for the duration of Russia's lead. That'll show them.

 

Apparently it's not planned at all but a complete coincidence that this happens on April 1st.

Smoke, mirrors and a shit load of money to be made from the poor semi-ruskies.
