    I see Trump's KFC venture has gone terribly well:

    The slogan isn't "utensil lickin' good" for a reason.

    While out on the campaign trail, Donald Trump posted a photo on Twitter Monday evening that's prompting questions about his eating habits.

    In the photo, Trump appears prepared to dig into a bucket of KFC fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy — but he won't be getting his hands on that chicken. He's using a knife and fork.

    Many users commented on how the photo was an obvious ploy to appear more relatable, but that it clearly backfired

    I dont have much interest in US politics, but really is this the best the campaign can come up with ?

    Once again we have juvenile personality twaddle rather than anything relevant to policies.

    A SNP MSP was ridiculed today after revealing he’s still boycotting a travel agent that opposed independence nearly two years after the referendum.

    John Mason said he refused to use Barrhead Travel because of the position its boss took during the run-up to the September 2014 vote.

    Writing on Twitter, the controversial Glasgow Shettleston MSP said: “I’m boycotting Barrhead Travel as they’re on the No side. Got euros elsewhere.”

    The comment sparked a furious backlash, with many pointing out Mason sits on Holyrood’s economy and jobs committee and the travel agent employ around 850 people.

    They even have a major office in Mason’s Shettleston constituency.

    Gosh, I can see how one bloke not getting his ForEx at a Travel Agent could bring the whole company to the verge of bankruptcy.
    I thought MSPs were supposed to represent all their constituents - not just the ones who voted for them?

    If so how does trash-talking one of your constituency's employers fit with that?

    Or does that not apply to SNP MSPs?
