Not surprised the former PM is careless with facts and details but staggered a publisher let this shoddiness through
Scott Wortley@Scott_Wortley10 Oct 2024
My son bought the Boris Johnson memoir for degree related reasons and brought this to my attention as an indicator of its quality and factual accuracy apparently Megrahi was released by a Labour scottish government. Shoddy. But characteristically shoddy and slapdash.

I don’t think having your mate’s son stay over for a few weeks because he needs somewhere quiet is in any way something out of the ordinary and it’s only because he declared it and assigned a random value to the accommodation that you are commenting

Dear Sandy, While you've been in charge at Rape Crisis Scotland, a man now serving time in prison for multiple sexual assaults was 'treated' at the Edinburgh centre. The man in charge of the Edinburgh centre called rape survivors who wanted single sex services 'bigots.' 1/9

Can’t believe I missed the first anniversary of the greatest moment of the royal funeral malarkey - BBC subtitle writers getting confused by Mark Drakeford reading from the Bible in Welsh

I wouldn't normally do this, but feel OK about it seeing as a) it's my email, b) she never replied, and c) she's caused untold damage to female rape victims. Here's what I sent to Sandy Brindley back in May: "Sandy I knew you when you were a feminist. I hope (but doubt) that you feel deep shame and remorse for the harm you have done to women, in order to be seen as being on the 'right side of history'. Shame on you. Julie

Mridual Wadhwa is no longer chief executive of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre. He should never have been in the post. His appointment caused so many women so much damage, as the Ling report pointed out yesterday. Shameful.

Yes Robert, the government that has been in power 10 weeks by Friday should have pressed the magical “Build Prisons” button the minute they got into office, a button you somehow couldn’t find for 14 years

Today is a day of shame for our criminal justice system. The solution is simple: build more prisons and lock up prolific offenders for longer.

Just another red-letter-day for the huge, monetised, verified grifters on @elonmusk dot com. Nothing brings in the revenue like sticking it to the Jews.

Why all the anger about the inspirational Petrillo? The cheat community has never had this kind of visibility! Out and proud cheats like Petrillo prove the era of cheat-shaming is over. What a role model! I say we give Lance Armstrong his medals back and move on. #Cheats #NoShame

My @scotonsunday column on the crisis in @CreativeScots. I've never asked for a share, before, but this is a fundamental free speech thing and I'd appreciate any retweets. Many thanks.
