On Nicola Sturgeon's Criticism of Alex Salmond and His Family's Response

  • “Telling the truth is now considered an attack and something that should be forbidden or locked away in a box.”
  • “Nicola Sturgeon’s Financial Times interview was more candid than her ‘measured’ statements to Parliament – did she conceal critical details?”

On Reform UK and Scottish Politics:

  • “2025 will be the year of Reform UK… Farage emboldens his raison d’être as mainstream parties feed his populist agenda.”
  • “Thomas Kerr’s defection exposes dark, shadowy forces behind Scottish Tory leadership – a symptom of a party in freefall.”

On Rachel Reeves and Labour:

  • “Rachel Reeves isn’t just struggling; whispers about her future might turn into howls if Labour can’t deliver growth.”
  • “Reeves and Starmer’s economic strategies betray their lip service to growth – they’re politicians of expediency, not vision.”

On Trump’s Return:

  • “Expect headlines, nonsense, and contradictory entertainment – and for the sensible, a whole lot of worry.”
  • “Buying Greenland, tariffs on all imports, and re-nationalism – Trump’s policies evoke the chaotic politics of a century ago.”

On Biden’s Presidency:

  • “Biden was a stop-Trump president, and Trump is returning. By that definition alone, Biden’s presidency is a monumental failure.”
  • “A tawdry end to Biden’s legacy: pardoning his son cuts through the nobility of public service.”
