Keir Starmer engaged in ugly, damaging, & disgraceful rhetoric no different to that spouted by Nigel Farage.
To be clear to refugees & migrants in Scotland:
You are welcome here.
Your contributions to our communities, NHS, care homes, & businesses are hugely valued.

Migration is good for the economy, good for public services and good for Scotland.
We are calling on the UK Government to remove the salary minimum income threshold for the Family Visa Route. This would allow more people living in Scotland to be reunited with their loved ones.

NEW: A survey has found that most Scots choose independence when asked to pick their first preference for the constitutional future of the country.
More than 3000 people were asked by pollsters Survation, 'how do you think Scotland should be governed'.

OBR says productivity still being dragged down by Brexit: "The effects of subdued investment, the energy price shock, and Brexit compound the ongoing weakness." OBR still expects Brexit to cause a 15% drop in "trade intensity" in the long term

This is a sensitive and important piece from Mike Atherton, that deserves to be read beyond the sports pages. Hugely in awe of the Thorpe family's openness, at a time like this, which will hopefully help save lives in future.

You don’t need to climb a Munro to get brilliant views in 🏴. This was this morning on the way up Ben Donich (Corbett) by the Rest and Be Thankful. Stunning.

Finally fulfilled an ambition yesterday - climbed Buchaille Etive Mor, Glencoe. Truly awesome and an incredible place to contemplate life and how lucky it is to be able to enjoy this experience. Can’t think of anything better for mental and physical health.
Truly stunning views at Ben Challum, near Tyndrum today and our Rory’s first Munro and summit picture ❤️🏴🐕🦺
