Next up for Book Club is 'Shuggie Bain' by @Doug_D_Stuart. An early June visit to the City of Discovery to our host @EwanGurr. theguardian.com/books/2020/jul…
18,276 steps walked, 12.8 kilometres covered, 13 newsagents attempted and 1,101 calories burned just to get the second instalment of Jim Sillars discussion w/ @kmckenna63 in a printed copy of a @heraldscotland in Dundee. Just as well I special order my Saturday edition each week.
Still perplexed by new questions our health visitor is now required to ask my wife and I, like: “Who is the uterus-bearer?” We’re then given a book for our son which, unless I’ve mis-gendered every ‘Darrel’ I’ve ever met, appears to affirm cross-dressing. He is one-year-old.
Daddy and Daughter Day - one of the finest prizes of fatherhood. The eight-year-old has come prepared…
In Sunday’s @Telegraph, reasonable questions posed by @DanielJHannan are debased by use of caricatures, like Rab C Nesbitt, to question the efficacy of institutions in helping people experiencing hardship. We need to amplify the potential we see in our fellow men and women.
A good bus service is like a buckle in the belt of a local economy. As a customer of Dundee’s bus service for 25 years, @XploreDundee offers an inferior service to what went before. I have written (see @Evening_Tele below) to its owners - the Easdale’s. I await a response…
Disappointed to be missing today’s #CashFirstCommunities event co-run by @IFAN_UK and @TrussellScot after attending last year’s conference. Some great speakers exploring a vital issue.
Week 7/52: When a mum living only on pasta has to ask her former partner if their little girl can stay a few extra nights at his house to ensure she gets a proper meal because she is still in the process of appealing a benefit sanction #StoriesBehindTheStatistics
I met this lady at food larder last week for the first time in five years, since she told me her story. She told me she has a physio appt to get a prosthetic leg, is now living in suitable supported accommodation and her three children are back living with her. Made my week! 🔥

Week 5/52: When a lady who has given up trying to secure employment and is sleeping rough in a car park states the biggest barrier to gaining work was a recurring question at job interviews about a conviction for stealing food to avoid starvation #StoriesBehindTheStatistics
Tomorrow, Caledonia Funeral Aid are joined by @PovertyAlliance and Down to Earth tomorrow in an online summit asking the important question: ‘Are existing benefits for bereaved families in Scotland sufficient?’ @CaledoniaCrem | @endfuneralpov Register 👉🏼 eventbrite.co.uk/e/benefits-for…
Solid piece by @cjayanetti here showing that “since 2014 there were at least 104 suicide or self-harm incidents reported by jobcentres and other @DWPgovuk providers…” Yet, these dropped to almost zero when sanctions were suspended during the pandemic. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
Bonnyrigg Rose have been draw away to Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup fifth round! How we feeling with that one Rose fans?

Incredible moment on Sky News there, with Shona Robison accidentally announcing a bid for the SNP leadership. It was very windy, she was having problems with her earpiece and misheard the question.
The shortest political campaign in history. Shona Robison was a candidate for FM for 1.8 seconds 😃
First day producing @BBCRadioScot Drivetime, I’m in Edinburgh with @mmgeissler from 4-6pm. All the reax on the First Minister and SNP. That’s enough of a 🚨new job klaxon 🚨from me ✌🏻
Typical Jambos…..Always stirring it up 😂
“Actually the source of the crisis, as I understand it, is Martin Geissler.” Alex Salmond thinks @mmgeissler’s interview with Patrick Harvie, in which Harvie refused to accept the scientific validity of the Cass Report, was the catalyst for the past week’s events. #BBCSundayShow
The problem with the argument Alba are the kingmakers here is that Humza Yousaf knows he won’t carry all his own group of MSPs if he does a deal with them.
Alex Salmond’s argument that Ash Regan is the most powerful MSP in the country might have more weight if he moved aside and let her do just a single one of the broadcast interviews. Very odd look.
Next up for Book Club is 'Shuggie Bain' by @Doug_D_Stuart. An early June visit to the City of Discovery to our host @EwanGurr. theguardian.com/books/2020/jul…
Weeks like this need print media like @heraldscotland . There's nothing like a newspaper to lay out, in-depth, what happened yesterday and what happens now, with opinion too.
Phenomenal work from my @heraldscotland team yesterday. What a day across online and print. Get access to all our work for just £20 a year: heraldscotland.com/subscribe/
As a former National Secretary of @JandPScotland it was great to get to their event with @sciaf & @ArchdiocGlasgow to listen to Fr Gabriel Romanelli the Catholic Parish Priest of Gaza. We need justice.
@waeades @NuffieldFound @Warwick_Law @LfL_Advicenow @CE_LawCentre That sounds really vital work - look forward to seeing the report
@ruthpatrick0 This looks exciting! @NuffieldFound has also funded important research by @Warwick_Law @LfL_Advicenow and @CE_LawCentre into understanding legal needs of vulnerable people - final report due soon - highlighting barriers to accessing justice, including welfare benefits.
Our advisory group and ethics and oversight panel includes an all-star line up of @KatieSchmuecker @DanPaskins @maggieoneill9 @DrSharonEWright @Grannyherro Watch this space for more news on the research & get in touch to hear more york.ac.uk/news-and-event… 🧵ends 🎉

🧵When Sunak delivered his ‘welfare’ set piece last week, he spoke as if the UK has one social security system, centrally controlled by Westminster, but this has not been the case for some time. york.ac.uk/news-and-event…
More needs to be done to understand the reach, impact and implications of the devolution of social security at the national, regional and local levels. Delighted that @NuffieldFound have awarded us a grant to do just that. Team includes seven universities & @resfoundation @CPAGUK
@NuffieldFound @resfoundation @CPAGUK Super lucky that I’ll get to work alongside @HAYLESBEN @MikeBrewerEcon @BethWatts494 @jed_meers @BenGoodair @lisa_scullion @RodHick @C_Fitz_ @madeleinepower @DHJ_Young @KateAndersen_ @RhiSims1 @johnhudson @sophiekhowes @Alex__Clegg & Mark Simpson (not on here)

This is the chilling truth that the state-assisted suicide lobby wants to conceal from us
The terrifying and deadly reality of assisted suicide is laid bare in Canada and other countries where it is already legal. People with diabetes, autism, and the disabled now routinely euthanised. It is little wonder support for assisted suicide in Scotland is ebbing away.
Many would say Dundee’s finest boozer…..
