Oh god that wee boy who is missing. It makes your heart sink to your boots doesn't it.

WouldBeGood · 20/09/2021 09:15

Yes, it’s just too horrible

I haven't heard of this, whats happened

shouldistop · 20/09/2021 10:35

Anyone know when the restrictions in schools will be ending? That's been almost 6 weeks and there's been no word.

WouldBeGood · 20/09/2021 10:39

He’s been found, safe and well. So good news

@shouldistop at least until the October holidays 😡

Which is even more ridiculous when we see cases continuing to fall in England.

Oh god just saw about the wee boy, thank god he's been found.

So it's been extended then? quelle surprise.

mapleleavesreturn · 20/09/2021 10:55

Excuse me whilst I don't fall off my seat in surprise on school rules extending. Money on them being removed after half term? I don't think so.

A day resting is often the best thing for a cough.

Thats great news. I have the bbc news app and the guardian on my phone but they dont really tell Scottish news much, whats best to hear about up here?

Iwantthesummersun · 20/09/2021 11:26

Nothing changing in schools until at least October. Unlikely after that I would say too.

BlameItOnTheBlackStar · 20/09/2021 11:30

Oh he's found?? Thank goodness!

LizzieMacQueen · 20/09/2021 11:36

I have radio scotland on in the background so hear the news updates. Kaye Adams, I quite like her, there was soe discussion earlier on the gender recognition act. They played the clip of NS with her 'not valid' claim. We need to challenge this.

mapleleavesreturn · 20/09/2021 11:44

I don't think the bbc is bad on scotland reporting all the time, this was interesting:

www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-58557254

Quite shocking that it can take so long to arrange appropriate support for university. I've long thought that cut off for support of 18 is arbitrary.

shouldistop · 20/09/2021 11:44

Some snp campaigners stopped my mum the other day. She said "you're going to regret stopping me" then proceeded to ask how they felt about the gender reform act etc. Anyone one of the women ended up agreeing with her and said Scot gov are going to need to change that.

Last week NS said review in October...
Groovee · 20/09/2021 12:45

I've said it before... school restrictions will be extended and extended then it will be the summer holidays and back to the same old from the previous 2 summers.

shouldistop · 20/09/2021 12:49

Ah thanks @Groovee I haven't watched her in a couple of weeks tbf - too depressing and infuriating.

We got an email from school, copied and pasted from council telling us all to wear masks in the playground and not to hang around chatting.

There's a maximum of 14 adults (usually less due to some kids at breakfast/afterschool club) in the playground when I take and collect ds. Am I fuck wearing a mask outside, it's not even crowded.

Another mum asked me if I'm exempt or just forget. I told her I just didn't want to. She just laughed.

Go, mum of @shouldistop!

Yay! go the stop family! Dh beat me to it last weekend when a SNP leaflet was pushed through the letterbox. He chased after the guy and gave him it back.

Railing against Humza and The dentist: both invited to appear on the Sunday Show but refused. Almost as if they’re aware of what a shitshow they are presiding over

Lots of stories about how they enjoyed their daily broadcast since last March but they are all now refusing any media requests, including Nicola. You'd have thought this would be an excellent opportunity for them to talk about all their successes to get us all on board for indyref2? Oh wait.....
