Disgrace! Absolute disgrace. It was a try, no question. He changed his mind to say it was a try then they talked themselves out of it again

The Cabinet Secretary’s revelations about Boris Johnson are shocking. But more shocking perhaps is that a cabinet secretary could be so open in his contempt for his Prime Minister without thinking it undermines the dignity of both their positions @RestIsPolitics

I’ll give it another two games before deciding whether hiring the bloke who guided the B team to 13th in the Lowland League (15 points behind Gala Fairydean) was or wasn’t a totally irresponsible move by Hearts.
Tonight: six defenders, one midfielder, no visible plan (again).

Corruption at its best. Walsh and Collum the wee fucking rodents. Fuck the SFA and fuck Celtic. Heart of Midlothian have been brilliant in that first half. An absolute disgrace.

I’m old enough to remember when the plan for 19 March was an SNP conference organised by chief executive Peter Murrell, where leader Nicola Sturgeon would win support for an indy strategy to bring together a membership of over 100,000. A month is a very long time in politics, etc

Hold on - wasn’t it those pesky free markets - that she champions - reacting in horror to £45 billion in unfunded tax cuts? That led to surge in cost of borrowing, near collapse of pension industry, and more costly mortgages for all of us. Didn’t Liz Truss bring Liz Truss down?

This is the best life advice you’ll ever hear👇
🗣”Failure, it will happen. Disappointment, it will happen. It’s part of your life and you can’t let it go without confronting it. Confront failure because this is how you find yourself. This is where you understand who you are.”

Danish television getting a taste of local censorship in Qatar. Suspect this will be the first example of many during this World Cup and shows what many reporters who want to tackle tough issues will be up against.

The First Minister mislead parliament last week about Scotland’s renewable energy production and then quietly had the minutes of proceedings changed when she was challenged. I raised this in Parliament yesterday. 👇🏻

Dear @Jeremy_Hunt pls put in place an emergency mortgage plan for regulatory intervention that protects mortgage holders from the impact of likely sharp UK rate rises. Eg
- Loosening remortgage affordability rules
- Flexibility in terms
- Payment holidays
- Stronger forbearance

We urgently need to let in Spanish telecommunication engineers to roll out broadband to help with growth, says Nadine Dorries. One day the penny will drop.

Self-aware quote from a cabinet minister in @Steven_Swinford piece: “The optimist in me would say that she’s only been in office five minutes and the public will give her the benefit of the doubt. The fear is that the public has made up their minds and switched off to her.”

Latest opinion polls are devastating for PM Truss. Devastating. I doubt there’s any coming back from this. Especially since the mortgage misery hasn’t even begun.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Her Majesty the Queen.
She was a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to serving our country, its people, and the Commonwealth. She did so with grace, dignity, and an unfailing sense of duty and purpose.

If I were advising the UK Prime Minister, I would tell them to make a televised statement to the nation tonight (or very soon) along the following lines:
1. We are in an energy crisis. This crisis is having a dreadful effect on everyone’s finances. And it is going to get worse.
