“In order to be a nation that builds ships, we need to be a nation that has ships” Andy Maciver and Geoff Aberdein agree that Scotland should be a nation of shipbuilding… but that currently Scotland’s infrastructure won’t allow for that to happen.

@alex.scotlibdems.org.uk reflects on the ongoing shortage of functional ferries serving the Western Isles and outlines the reasons that he thinks it merits a recall of the Scottish Parliament.

“That involves you leaving behind a lot of 2016 SNP policy” Andy Maciver asks whether the SNP has been too focused on welfare and if now is the time to try to grow Scotland’s economy. Stephen Flynn argues that his party can achieve both. Is this an unrealistic expectation for the SNP government?

"Greens don't shy away from our policy positions" @ross-greer.bsky.social defends campaign strategies used by the England and Wales Greens during the Gorton and Denton by-election, and suggests that he would be comfortable with that style of campaigning in Scotland.

“The public have told that we are three headed monsters that eat babies” Malcolm Offord sets out what his goals are for Reform UK during this parliamentary session. He suggests that his MSPs will have to prove that they are ‘decent, sensible people that really care about Scotland’.

"Should this new mechanism come in place for 2027, industry will come to the table with significant multi-billion pound investment." Geoff Aberdein considers the impact of the Middle East conflict on energy prices - and why the UK Government needs to unlock domestic potential.

Should Scotland have an agreed threshold for a Referendum? Geoff Aberdein wonders if, now that John Swinney’s mandate for independence hasn’t been met, whether it would be wise for political parties to agree on a threshold for a second referendum in future elections.

“He’s having a decent campaign” Geoff Aberdein looks back at this week’s manifesto launches for Scottish Labour and the Scottish Greens, pointing out merits in both.

Should Scotland have an agreed threshold for a Referendum? Geoff Aberdein wonders if, now that John Swinney’s mandate for independence hasn’t been met, whether it would be wise for political parties to agree on a threshold for a second referendum in future elections.

“I don’t believe any of them” Calum Macdonald reads a message from one of Scotland’s modern studies teachers who suggests that they have no idea who they will vote for, and that they might even spoil their ballot. Another example of voter apathy: will we see a record low turnout?

What has the Trump Administration gotten in this reckless war? I know the cost: Billions spent, 13 brave Americans dead, hundreds more wounded—and pretty much nothing to show for it. Crazy stuff.

VOLKER: Trump looks at Russia's war against Ukraine as a matter of who's bigger, who has power. Russia's bigger country, so Russia's going to win. Ukraine should give something up and make peace. Trump can't understand why they're not doing this. And he is making a huge mistake.
