We mourn the passing of astronaut Bill Anders, lunar module pilot for Apollo 8, and backup pilot for the Gemini XI and Apollo 11 flights. One of the first three people to travel beyond the reach of our Earth and orbit the Moon, Anders took the legendary Earthrise photo. More on his legacy: go.nasa.gov/4aO6VUo

The brave man who took this iconic photo, one of the first 3 humans to ever leave Earth orbit and travel to the Moon, died yesterday. Bill Anders, I salute you.

Big fan of Martin Compston.
He took time out today to attend/support and lead the Scottish Independence #believeinScotland March in Glasgow. (along with FM of Scotland, Humza Yousaf et al)

This is an outrage. We will be seeking advice on the possibility of a legal challenge. Either we’re all equal in law or we’re not. Either we believe in the rule of law or we don’t.

Biggest North Sea oil find drilled for first time.
Irrespective of green debate on whether new oil should be drilled, the fact is Scotland has no control of its own energy reserves that is disastrous.
Our resources will be pillaged by our neighbours until we achieve Independence.

Brent crude at £89.97 per barrel just now, so multiply that by 500 MILLION to see just how much Westminster is helping themselves too

Scottish households pay almost £800 less for council tax and water.
And you can actually swim in our waters without coming out covered in 💩.
Beware Red Tories who want to privatise water and NHS as per England.
Labour run Birmingham is bankrupt and has put up local tax by 21%!!!

HS2 train factory closing before it can make a single HS2 train.
Any Unionists care to comment? 😜🤣

The "grassroots" protest about Angela Rayner turns out to be from a Conservative Councillor who's previously been called to account for offensive comments about women on his Facebook page!!
Always a pattern isn't there?
I can't wait for this lot to go....they really are the worst
@AdamBienkov
So that supposedly grassroots ‘tax protest’ against Angela Rayner today, was actually organised by the Conservative party.
Local Conservative Cllr John Coulson told me he staged the stunt alongside other local Tory politicians.

Labour leadership values: “among its 10 appointees, there was not one from a consumer rights group or from an organisation representing working people. There were, however, senior figures from Barclays, Prudential and Legal & General.” theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Please join me in praying for the well-being and swift release of Laylan Nasser, a member of St Peter’s Anglican Church in Birzeit, in the West Bank, snatched from her family by Israeli troops at 4am on Saturday without giving any reason or saying where she is being held

It's my class-based analysis which leads me to condemn a Labour party which backs the two-child benefit cap - which drives 250,000 kids into poverty, and 850,000 kids further into poverty.
New Labour at least had anti-poverty measures in 1997. This lot back pro-poverty measures!

🚨 Scam warning 🚨 There's a fake account selling ScotRail Smartcards on Facebook.
You should only ever order a Smartcard from scotrail.co.uk or through our app - it's free to do and there's no postage fee.
ALT Two ScotRail Class 380 trains passing over a level crossing. The trains are connected together, with a large black gangway linking the two, as if they're kissing. The level crossing has one red and white barrier blocking the left side of the road. At either side of the road are flashing red lights and signs reading, "Keep crossing clear."

Amazingly proud of my Raconteurs colleagues ... and green with envy that I didn't get to LA this time round.
⭐️⭐️⭐️So proud of our #Audie2024 nomination! As one of the only truly independent publishers and producers nominated at the Audie’s this year it was humbling to see ourselves up there with the biggest publishers in the world (with much bigger budgets than ours!)…

I can't wait to catch up with friends and colleagues - and to making lots of new connections. #LBF24
