Today's the day. My last on Beano. Sad to leave such a brilliant title. Having the honour of redesigning the comic in 2016 was a real highlight - but not as much as getting to work on it weekly with the best team ever. Elaine, Gary, Mark, Claire, Michelle & John - Thank You!

The Joani Reid story has all the finest ingredients for a press frenzy, but there isn't one. That's the most interesting thing.

Breaking news: Journalist of the year used his position to print propaganda in support of woman he was shagging behind her husband's back.
In hindsight, it isn’t surprising that even Paul Hutcheon couldn’t continue at the Daily Record👇

So Joani Reid is married to a Chinese spy, had an affair with a military nuclear sub captain, and also an editor of a significant Scottish newspaper, and nobody thinks that's a big story?

Here we have Harriet Cross from Yorkshire but representing Gordon and Buchan asking for WM to not give Scotland any more powers to govern itself. Are the voters of Gordon and Buchan happy to be represented by this cuckoo?

Hutcheon is back on X after a month in hiding and no longer at the Daily Record. With replies turned off. Imagine losing your job you’d kissed arse for years to get and shitting on what reputation you had because you were banging Joani Reid. It’s fucking hilarious by the way.
🧰 Despite the PM's denials, an early general election hovers over the Budget. A series of micro-initiatives are coming, but key for the Chancellor is avoiding the Budget mistakes of the early years. Persuading voters the Labour Gov is on their side would be a good day's work.

Badenoch has forgotten that Thatcher sold off the family silver, Cameron ruined public services with austerity, Johnson ruined the economy for a generation with his Brexit deal. Then he pissed £billions up the wall with dodgy Covid loans and PPE contracts. Then we had Mad Lizzy!

15 Megaprojects kicking off in UK, each one costing £billions. From Barrow in Furness, Submarines, Derby, small Nuclear Reactors, London, Lower Thames Crossing, HS2, Cross Penine Railway, all one thing in common, Scotland excluded except for putting it on our Credit Card at 8.6%.

Tomorrow, when you see the front pages of the right-wing press telling you how dreadful the budget was, remember their track record. Also remember that right-wingers won’t ever be happy with any budget that doesn’t push down on those at the bottom to benefit those at the top.

A husband, two Navy Commanders, a polical hack journalist, all ruined, she's some gal
The🇬🇧Labour MP @JoaniReid may have led an extremely lacklustre & unimpressive political career However nobody could doubt that she’s a very very friendly lady nitter.gq/CrewkerneGaz/status/20…

Obviously this is all funny but it is disconcertingly weird that the entire thing - the Chinese spying, the publicly riding up nuclear submarine captains and humping notable politics correspondents - has been comparatively low key. This would once have wrecked governments.

The Scottish Government bottle return deposit plans *repeatedly delayed* says BBC Reporting Scotland's Kevin Keane. That's not true is it? @BBCScotlandNews It was blocked by the UK Government. How on earth does the BBC reporter not know this? Because of course he knows this.
