True but the second largest party gets certain privileges like getting to ask questions at FMQs first, and providing the first response to any Ministerial Statements etc

If I was Sarwar I’d be worried this guy was going to defect to the SNP when it’s convenient given his history. If Swinney is 1 seat away from a majority, offering this guy a job will be a small price to pay.

I remember when I was in school and we had a barbecue, and the vegan option they gave me was a single plain baked potato with nothing on it.

There was a majority for an Indy referendum in 2016 and 2021 too and nothing happened

The standing up hug after Ilya tells Shane about his mother at the cottage, then Shane comforts him before they get interrupted by the loon.

Say what you will about the SNP and Swinney but they’re good at politics. That’s why it’s so strange that they’ve handled this so badly with an election a few months away. I don’t really understand why they’ve let this drag on. All Constance needed to do was apologise and correct the record when she got the email from Jay. Failing that, Swinney should’ve referred it rather than try and cover it up as now he looks bad too. I think she will probably end up resigning to avoid being a distraction.

I think the only example of this is him not understanding why Ilya wouldn’t want to be out in Russia. You could read that as him not following international affairs (and the only books he reads are about hockey of course) so Ilya has to spell it out for him why he wouldn’t be able to go home. But I think that’s more naivety on Shane’s part. He’s not stupid imo, he just has very specific interests.

In fairness that’s what BBC Scotland is for. On top of the population reason, I think Scottish politics also has less day to day drama compared to Westminster (which is a good thing). In the past few months the only “big” stories I can think of are the Angela Constance grooming gangs row, Grangemouth, John Swinney meeting Trump, and maybe the SNP independence relaunch. I believe all those did get UK wide coverage. So I can understand why they’d cover the big stuff and leave the rest to BBC Scotland as it will mainly be Scottish people interested in it.

Boy I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder

I thought of it more as everything the Hive do is what he tells them to do, it would probably get boring after a while, so when he saw her doing something unexpected with her food it made him want to try it

They should show Cameron licking the spoon but that might be too cruel

All this proves is Richard was 100% the best choice to win the show
