BBC reporting that Israel-friendly Angus Robertson may have lost his seat to the Greens' Lorna Slater.
Good news if it materialises.

An roghainn as fheàrr do dh'Alba Diardaoin. Ceum air adhart agus slaic do Reform an-seo.
The best choice for Scotland this Thursday. A progressive move and keeps Reform/Trump/ Putin from power here.

After getting that dodgy flier I've just done a search for 'Conservative party list candidates for the Scottish elections with a view to complaining to the electoral commission.There's one result for Tory candidates', 2 articles about the Scottish elections, one for SNP candidates and FIVE links to articles relating to reform party candidates, including the top response.
They're trying to indoctrinate us again. Please don't get sucked in, folks

News around the island last week was that Amanda Dempsey, a local Tory councillor, had defected to Reform. https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/25936816.scottish-tory-councillor-amanda-hampsey-oban-joins-reform-uk/
So I was surprised to receive this flier today. Highly misleading, although I guess it was already on its way when she announced she was jumping ship.
Have to wonder what will be on the ballot papers...

CW: Scottish Politics
Previously #Tweeted the below into the void... Given the greater degree of discussion on here, maybe I'll get some thoughts this time? 😅
"I used to think that the #Scottish Parliament should have a second chamber but nowadays I think unicameral works well enough...
However, #Senedd expansion has left me thinking that #Holyrood is probably overdue an expansion too, given the increase in its work since 1999. Thoughts?"
