Ye see yon birkie ca’d a lord,
Wha struts, an’ stares, an’ a’ that;
Tho’ hundreds worship at his word,
He’s but a coof for a’ that:
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
His ribband, star, an’ a’ that:
The man o’ independent mind
He looks an’ laughs at a’ that.
Former Scottish Labour leader @AnasSarwar has entered the Lords as Baron Sarwar of Maxwell Park.
Seen Rich Hall a couple of times before, always good value but he knocked it out the park tonight. Terrific entertainment - opening 10 minutes best I’ve heard in years! 👏👏🎭
Excellent from a fringe veteran #katecopstick Particularly on Point 2 (rents) Fed up hearing from Trade reps sanctimoniously complaining about a 5% levy while ruthlessly using ‘dynamic’ pricing to exploit visitors. Point 3 ( venue charges) could do with some attention as well.
What's gone wrong with the Fringe. And how to fix it trib.al/QskKbFV
Absolutely Ray, I think this lad needs a history lesson to correct his delusion.
“Nr.10 North”? Seems a bit tone deaf for a man committed to expanding devolution in the UK. Manchester is 216 miles SOUTH of Edinburgh for a start. What would Nr.10 in our capital be called then Andy?
"This is what No. 10 North is all about. Putting power in every postcode."
New PM Andy Burnham declares today as the "best day of my life", as he opens new No. 10 North and emphasises he wants to get "the whole country facing the same way".

Enjoying watching on a course I’ve been lucky enough to play many times over the years. First played it in the 80’s when we played ‘Gourmet golf’. King’s in the morning, lunch in the Bothy then on to the Queen’s.15 quid all in! Now up to £560 to play the King’s alone! Happy days
That’s 26 yeas ago. Never heard anything like it since, probably never will. As you say @L1minus10 Top Man.
Fair comment Henry.
Good luck to the great Lionel Messi and Argentina in the World Cup final. And good luck to Thomas Tuchel trying to explain those defensive, expensive subs. #ENGARG
Just getting comfortable for a weekend of world class sport @ScottishOpen @Wimbledon @FIFAWorldCup 😊
Great article Alan, very interesting with great background - and Scottish element - to an iconic photograph. Any chance of putting in a query to SFA about what happened to David’s approach to them which got no reply? Maybe they were all too busy packing right enough.
"I went to Mexico on a wing and a prayer but with a letter from Scottish Football Today..."
The remarkable story behind a 20-year-old Edinburgh University student taking one of the greatest-ever sports photographs.

1/ 🏴🇲🇽 Don’t wish our southern neighbours any harm in their game v Mexico, genuinely, ‘may the best team win’ ‘que sera sera’ and all that but there’s just been a ‘sleep expert’ on telly advising fans how to prepare for a 1am kick off.. no drink, eat lightly, have a nap etc 🤔
