After many months of being 'bombarded' with, so reassuring adverts it might be time for me to take up online gambling!! After all, you can 'take time out' 'don't chase my losses' and set a betting limit.


I will be amazed if they don't start taxing winning bets. Another easy target.

You heard it here first.

SIR – In a society with an economy that seeks to better everyone's financial status, the creation of wealth is absolutely key. Taxing it not only deters this but also reduces the levels of wealth created. But by all means tax the gains of short-term speculation, which do not create productive wealth.Alex Hammond-ChambersEdinburgh ..Daily Telegraph

Scotland suspends meetings with Israel

The Scottish foreign secretary was previously accused of normalizing ties with the Jewish state





Scotland said it has suspended all meetings with Israeli officials until there is “real progress” towards peace in Gaza. The announcement follows criticism of a secret meeting between Scottish External Affairs Secretary Angus Robertson and an Israeli diplomat earlier this month.

In a statement on Monday, Robertson essentially apologized for meeting Israel’s Deputy Ambassador to the UK Daniela Grudsky Ekstein two weeks ago, insisting that it did not “represent a normalization of relations” between the Israeli and Scottish governments.

It was Ekstein who requested the meeting, Robertson said. He saw it as an “opportunity to express” Scotland’s “unwavering position on the need for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza,” the minister explained.

“No one intended that this meeting be presented as legitimizing the actions of the Israeli government in Gaza. The Scottish government has been consistent in our unequivocal condemnation of the atrocities we have witnessed in Gaza,” he added.

“Going forward, it is clear that... it would not be appropriate to accept any invitation for a further meeting… until such time as real progress has been made towards peace.”

Robertson faced backlash from the ruling Scottish National Party (SNP), with some critics calling for him to be suspended, and describing him as “a liability.”

There has also been criticism over the “secrecy” of the meeting, as it only came to light after Grudsky posted a picture on X (formerly Twitter) alongside Robertson.

The government of the UK, of which Scotland is part, has also been calling for a ceasefire between the militant group Hamas and the Israeli armed forces.

Don’t see many of the millions who voted labour into power vigorously defending their vote now 😂 - yes undoubtedly the tories within became their own worst enemies and stupidly did not defend the high tax levels being unavoidable due to brexit, covid , general world economy the 2 wars - but they were just starting to turn the corner and undoubtedly would have proved to be the lesser of 2 evils. Now we’re doomed for 10 years as it’s highly unlikely the Hoc majority can be overturned in 5 - but we can only live in hope. PENSIONERS UNITE !!!!

Over the last few days Ive been on the verge of buying a stock and increasing my holding in another. The main thing that has stopped me is the current performance of The Tool's Government. It's hard for me to be positive about future performance of the economy. I surely cant be on my own but I wonder if there are people who can see a boost from Tool's C suite's policies?
