 @0c1a9324 yeah, I noticed that the Graun are desperately trying to push it as a big Starmer!Labour win indicative of Scottish Labour Being Back; I suspect that is because of the overlap of said theme with their transphobic and anti-Scottish-independence editorial stances... 
 @a00f908e Totally. The trouble with the Graun is that they *used to be* a socially liberal left-wing newspaper; but for the past three decades they've been tilting towards centrism (and by centrism I mean 1980s rightism) with a side-order of bigotry and Little Englander nationalism. And it's now impossible to read without a backgrounder on their biases. (At least the Telegraph is clearly edited by swivel-eyed neoreactionary lunatics.)
