Rare red-footed falcon spotted in Aberlady
A rare red-footed falcon has been snapped just outside of Edinburgh in Aberlady by a local photographer. Photographer Mark Rielly captured the falcon which has a "near threatened" status on the IUCN red list of threatened species list. The bird is usually only found in Estonia, Slovakia and Hungary with sightings also seen in north-west China. The falcons migrate to south of Africa in the winter. Sightings of the species in the United Kingdom are reported annually but are rarely photographed.

The Scottish Labour Leadership contest is wild. Traditionally a party dictated by the unions, and only one candidate got a trade union backing. So if they aren’t listening to their unions, don’t seem to be listening to their members, what is the point of their branch office?

We've got a Scottish Labour leadership election raging with a factionalism explicitly along the lines of hating trans people being a core political subject. We've had cabinet appointments which we've had to pore over to consider what it means for trans rights

With Anas Sarwar about to resign as Scottish Labour Leader and MSP for Glasgow, after saying just 2.5 months ago he would stay on and serve the people of Glasgow, and take up a seat in the House of Lords, after calling for its abolition in 2022, is exactly why people have no faith in politics.

The UK govt announced that the NHS app in England will have AI added in order to triage patients. What could possibly go wrong? This is one of the reasons I’m glad NHS Scotland didn’t use the NHS England app, the other reason is we don’t want Palantir trawling around our health records.
