Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

The sun has appeared in Carrbridge in the Cairngorms. Not so much above, rather low down, just above the trees in the distance.

On 16 Oct at 11am at Boat of Garten Station, the HML CRP will be presented with a prestigious Red Wheel as part of the Railway 200 celebrations. This honour recognises the entire Highland Main Line (of which the Strathspey Railway was historically a part) as a site of exceptional transport heritage.

Glad you admit your mistake but as a SGP member I am very disappointed in your poor judgement. Didn't you research before deciding? So much of this was obvious.

I don't know if my situation is typical (NHS Scotland), but my doctor took me seriously, and had a fair number of tests done to eliminate other possible causes before diagnosing me with LC. I just hope some treatment comes available...

Should Scotland be an independent country? Yes 56%, No 44%.

Should Scotland be an independent country? Yes 56%, No 44%.

A new poll has given independence its biggest lead since 2022.

🟒 Yes: 56%
πŸ”΄ No: 44%

With the powers of a normal, independent country Scotland could do far more tackle inequality, build our public services, and protect our environment.

MSP Fergus Ewing: β€˜The SNP just is no longer the party for all of Scotland, as it has been for most of my 50 years as a member’ He confirms that β€˜with great sadness’ he is to stand down as SNP MSP at the 2026 Holyrood election but may yet stand as an independent.

Brilliant news. I hated voting for the tartan Tory but I wanted independence more than his anti-environment and right wing views www.inverness-courier.co.uk/news/msp-fer...

Muirburn near Drumochter.

Muirburn near Drumochter.

Just south of Drumochter. Sad to see more muirburn taking place. This is already a man made biodiversity desert where a natural ecosystem could thrive and support many more people. #banmuirburn
