@Byrd061 @TheBloodyNerve @JustSilverCh @PeterHRatcliffe And silence ensues from this muppet - delighted to see someone use intelligence, integrity and hard evidence to shut this kind of nonesense down - thank you @Byrd061

@TheBloodyNerve @Byrd061 @JustSilverCh @PeterHRatcliffe Eh, they have done, are doing now and will continue to - really annoying, isn’t it, when someone actually offers hard evidence to disprove your made up sweeping statements that the entire world knows to be a delusional fairytale

@JeremyCordite @ByDonkeys Did you actually watch and listen to this piece? This is about having multiple citizenships to avoid taxation - only the complete opposite of what you are suggesting.

@ScotRail I am well aware it is complementary Chloe - that doesn’t mean it should be sub-standard. We are in the 21st century and it is not unreasonable for commuters to expect reliable WiFi from @ScotRail so they can work during journeys. My 4G connection was flawless - same old excuses!

@juloof1 @IanDunt ‘Good always wins’ - so it is good that women can’t make choices about their bodies? it is good that people fleeing persecution and tyranny will be deported? it is good that Ukraine will be forced to give up sovereign territory? You have a very strange sense of what is good…

A really difficult and moving watch - what have we learned, what changes have we made, are we ready for next time?

Prof @Kevin_Fong giving the most devastating and moving testimony to the Covid Inquiry of visiting hospital intensive care units at the height of the second wave in late Dec 2020. The unimaginable scale of death, the trauma, the loss of hope. Please watch this 2min clip.

@ScotRail can you advise when you will be reinstating the standard timetable on the Dumfries to Glasgow line? The continued absence of the 16.52, with the only option for commuters being the 18.38 really is no longer viable.

@arfajob1 @A1an_M @lynneq19 @ThatTimWalker Did I specify gender or skill level? You are, it would appear conflating migrants and refugees - two very different but equally important issues that I suspect we have hugely divergent views on.

@A1an_M @lynneq19 @ThatTimWalker Have you actually listened to yourself - we need people to breed more? What is actually wrong with people who actually want to do the jobs that British people don’t want to do, coming to the UK and filling the gap? Why would you want people who don’t want caring roles to do them?

@A1an_M @lynneq19 @ThatTimWalker Isolationism versus globalisation - the world has so moved on from the independent nation state. Honestly, people need to move on

@A1an_M @lynneq19 @ThatTimWalker The question should not be, ‘is he correct?’ Rather, ‘is it necessary?’ To which the answer is, of course, yes. The simple truth is that with an ageing population and reducing levels of an economically active younger population, we need migration to secure a future workforce.

@ScotRail 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off for an entire journey across the central belt of Scotland while my mobile has 5G or 4G coverage at the same time 😏 Sounds much more like a technical fault to me.

@ScotRail Let me explain this to you clearly. It was not the speed of the connection, it was the stability of connection. It showed as being connected one minute then disconnected the next, repeatedly. For the record, I was trying to access Outlook on O365 - doesn’t need a high bandwidth.
