A must read! “What fascinated me most however, was the social context in which it happened. This was a remote corner of Scotland where people from Wick – only half-jokingly – considered those from Thurso, a mere 20 miles away, to be foreigners.”

Remember that we have elections in Scotland and Wales tomorrow, and don't let anyone put you off voting by telling you that it's meaningless or 'boring'. There could be a political earthquake in Wales this time around, and Scotland doesn't need people dismissing its outcome. 🗳️

An explainer article I publish last week explaining the Adicional Member System in Scotland’s electoral system. In it, if a specific party does very well in the constituency vote, it is much less likely to get a regional seat, so the final vote gets balanced.

Voting for the first time? Here’s how the Scottish electoral system works - Bylines Scotland

A must read from @dangoyal.bsky.social! “The only notable manifesto promise is a policy that puts Scottish Labour right alongside Reform, the Conservatives, and their UK Labour counterparts: “Reform NHS funding so that funding follows the patient.” (p.12 Scotland Needs Change)

Election 2026: what do the Scottish party manifestos say about the NHS? - Bylines Scotland

Six parties, one NHS crisis – yet their manifestos reveal more shared ground than solutions, with only a few willing to face the hard choices

Those defending Reform, it’s time to wake up. I wonder what Malcom Offord has to say about it. Anas Sarwar pay attention who you do pacts with in order to spoil @theSNP votes… Brilliant reporting!
