| 1641097564731604992 | @STRUANSTEVENSON @TheScotsman Thank you very informative indeed. We agree with you an arrest warrant must be issued for Raisi in the International criminal court. He is a mass murderer of 30,000 innocent #MEK political prisoners in 1988. Victims families are seeking justice. @UN @mbachelet @JavaidRehman | 33 |

| 1640274477161259008 | @CPAGScotland @NicolaSturgeon @ScotGovFM @TheScotsman Nicola Sturgeon is loved by the greater majority in Scotland, no matter what bully boy state broadcasters, unionists, tories, labourites, mysognists, bigots and billionaire owned msm think and not just for relieving child poverty. https://t.co/Wqc8xIGv5m | 27 |
| 1639771049284837377 | @joycemcm @TheScotsman @NicolaSturgeon Now, Joyce, tell us what Sturgeon has actually achieved. No, I don’t mean winning elections on the backs of the gullible. I mean what has she actually done? Answer: she has lied, diverted money from the NHS and education to vanity projects, failed to carry through any policy. | 23 |

| 1639369976099270657 | @joycemcm @TheScotsman @NicolaSturgeon Joyce, your article was a tedious whitewash of her catastrophic tenure. Scotland wouldn’t be the corrupt cesspit it is today if certain journos bucked up their ideas instead of grovelling to politicians. | 158 |
