Minister and son chauffeured to Cup Final in official limo https://t.co/G63DKuQ1kt — Graham Grant (@GrahamGGrant) December 20, 2024 I wonder how the Minister's son got himself invited to the Cup Final - did the SFA ask him independently of his mother or did Angela Constance ask for another ticket to the game, presumably a hospitality ticket into the bargain?  

Not all men's toilets are as bad as 'the worst toilet in Scotland' featured in in this clip from 'Trainspotting' - but there's no doubt that unisex rest rooms, in general, are a backward step for women and girls.

Eddie Izzard's daftie idea about getting rid of urinals and having unisex toilets would punish women for the gross behaviour of manky men and teenage boys. As for his suggestion about schools - I can't imagine young teenage girls (and their parents) being anything other than completely grossed out!  

I mean, who would ever have thought the SNP promoting a woke agenda in Scotland's schools would lead to this kind of situation? The vast majority of Scots, I imagine. Women, Girls and Single Sex Spaces ( March 16, 2023 ) Well I never! Who would ever have thought that teenage boys would behave like teenage boys in mixed sex toilets?  I'd sue the school.

The woeful state of Glasgow's Sauchiehall Street is a national disgrace - never ending 'works', empty shops, boarded up pubs, graffiti everywhere, dirty pavements, litter, fly-tipping and an ugly, intrusive, often dangerous cycle lane.

I will not be surprised in the slightest if, come April, a number of these ongoing projects are shelved before completion. Still, those Deliveroo Motorways we’ve paid for are great. pic.twitter.com/oupeo6LiN2 — Brian Spilei (@BrianSpanner1) December 18, 2024 I was in a store in Sauchiehall Street the other day and asked staff what they thought of the 'improvements' to Glasgow's once-upon-a-time most famous shopping street. The place has been dug up for months on end, but it's fair to say that everybody I spoke to was underwhelmed at the final result - a few new trees dotted here and there doesn't add up to much.
