A great reply semi-ruined by the final sentence. Stew? In Scotland?! The very thought! https://t.co/xt4ltJ4enm

There are only two places in the Universe According To Andy: London and Manchester. Live in both, understand them both - and you, my friend, have got it licked. https://t.co/GHH2aN6GL1

Although I have some sympathy with this tweet, the idea that Birmingham is "the middle" simply reinforces the absurdity of Burnham's own worldview. Manchester itself is roughly in the middle of the UK. To treat it as the northern extreme leaves half of the landmass invisible. https://t.co/GEHnpNrueF

As regular readers may recall, I've been an elected member of the SNP's Policy Development Committee since last October, which meant I had an automatic delegate spot at SNP National Council in Port Glasgow yesterday.  As far as I could see the entire event was held in private session without the media being allowed in, so I can't say anything about what happened inside the hall, and instead I'll just give you my now-traditional selfie from outside the venue just to prove that I was there.  As I've mentioned once before, the last time I spent any time in Port Glasgow was when I was an extra on the film Anna and the Apocalypse, which entailed being chased down a residential street by zombies, so no jokes please about any similarities or contrasts between the two experiences.
