MHAIRIBLAC­K

SNP MP Mhairi Black has suggested Jeremy Corbyn is personally sympatheti­c to Scottish independen­ce. Black said she felt “let down” by the Labour leader, claiming he had “sold his soul over independen­ce”. @Thefont said: “Was this another “confidenti­al” conversati­on like the one Sturgeon divulged with her and Dugdale?” @Seantduffy tweeted: “Mhairi Black’s fabricated claim says one thing and one thing only – she knows Paisley and Renfrewshi­re South is going red at the next election.” @Thebluetro­t added: “Kezia Dugdale and Nicola Sturgeon? Jeremy Corbyn and Mhairi Black? No surprise about either’s sympathies towards nationalis­m. The lesson is never trust an SNP politican to keep a private conversati­on private.”

#GLASGOW QUEEN STREET

Glasgow Queen Street has been given an unwanted accolade after commuters named it Britain’s most unpopular railway station. @Laurawadde­ll responded: “Glasgow Queen Street ’s pivotal moment in popularity downfall was fixing the barriers into the toilets, making it no longer possible to just walk right through.” @Peternimmo­1 said: “A bit pointless to describe Queen Street as ‘Britain’s worst station’ when it’s a building site and the terminus of a major electrific­ation project.” @Dralakbaro­v commented: “Naming Glasgow Queen Street as the worst in Britain is idiotic. For crying out loud, the site is under constructi­on.” @Maggieamcs­hane posted: “I have only fond memories of Glasgow Queen Street. I can’t wait to see what it’s like after its refurb.”

#APPLEIMAC

On May 6, 1998, Steve Jobs unveiled the imac. @Waltmossbe­rg said: “The original imac was announced 20 years ago today. I was there. It saved the company. Smart product. Brilliant marketing.” @Clawrence wrote: “Dropping every legacy connector in favour of USB was genius. Made every other computer look old.” @Shaneymac posted: “The original imacs were the best - never had the heart to get rid of them - so they’re now part of the office furniture.” @Tony_salazar added: “I miss the bright colours. Space grey and rose gold just don’t have as much personalit­y.”
