John Swinney declared Scotland's politician of year just hours after damning Covid report.

Donald Trump's 28-point peace plan to end the war in Ukraine has sparked astonishment in Kiev, as officials process how it appears to call for a full capitulation to Vladimir Putin's draconian demands after almost four years of conflict.

Ukraine woke up Friday to a controversial U.S. proposal - based off the Gaza war ceasefire - that would force it to give up its land, cut its army in half and hold elections within 100 days.

'Being f***ing mind blown has become our norm,' a senior lawmaker from President Volodymyr Zelensky's party told AFP, reflecting the mood in Ukraine.

The Scottish Conservatives have pledged to vote against any plans by the SNP Government to impose "staggering" fines on householders who don't comply with future energy regulations.

It was revealed this week that the draft Buildings and Heat Networks Bill contains plans that would impose penalties of up to £15,000 on home or building owners who do not comply with new laws, such as replacing ageing gas or oil boilers in their properties.

Documents published alongside the new draft Bill set out the "sanctions" for failing to comply, adding: "Those sanctions may involve the enforcement authority imposing a civil penalty up to a maximum of £15,000."

It comes after Housing Secretary Mairi McAllan announced that the final Bill will not be published until after next year's Holyrood elections, which she blamed on delays to the UK Government's warm homes plan.

Wonder what caused this?

Nathan Gill is in prison for 10 years for being paid by a foreign state to push their narrative.

Can someone explain to us, like they would say a young child or a puppy, how is this any different from all the MP's who take all expenses paid trips to 'israel' to push their narrative?

This is the Europe that they want you, your sons and your grandsons to go and die for.

Go and die in a ditch in the Donbas to defend this.

Just in🚨

Defence Secretary, John Healey, has not been paying the full amount of Council Tax on his second home/Westminster flat.

The same John Healey shilling for war.

After the US president labelled her a "traitor", she said in a video announcing her departure: "I refuse to be a 'battered wife' hoping it all goes away and gets better."

Candace Owens says that there will be an assassination attempt on her. 👀👀👀

"Farhaan Rehman, the Labour councillor for Hounslow Heath in West London, owns a light blue Lamborghini Urus SE SUV worth £208,000 which has been pictured on two occasions parked in a disabled parking spot at Hounslow House civic centre."

Bait and switch.

Boris Johnson took a £1 Million payment straight to his bank from a drone manufacturer.

Took him to Ukraine.

Lobbied for the war to continue- hundreds of thousands more dead.

Bit of perspective to the Nathan Gill case.

The Palace of Westminster should just be renamed Sodom and Gomorrah at this point.

Is this the end of MAGA or the beginning of something new?

Scores of children to get puberty blockers on NHS in UK from 2026
The first patients are expected to be available for recruitment in the new year, with researchers hopeful that more than 200 children could eventually join the study.

Dozens of children in the UK will be administered puberty blockers on the NHS in the UK from early 2026. A clinical trial examining the effects of these drugs is set to commence, with recruitment for the first patients expected to begin in the new year - although it will not be available in Scotland.

King's College London researchers are optimistic that over 200 children could participate in the study, with results anticipated in approximately four years. Some participants may continue taking the medication beyond the trial if it is deemed "clinically appropriate".
