Got to be honest, this is getting into Tattle territory speculating about some guy and his girlfriends.

You say that like it's a bad thing!

Here's another person to add to the I-don't-know-why-you'd-follow list - Jim Spence.

I read a story of his that was published in the National and it was, being charitable, complete and utter garbage. It read like something written by a standard grade student. According to the comments his other books are better though.

You brought tattle into my life and I thank you for it!

Here's a few more people to add to the list - Ali Heather, Darren McGarvey and Jim Spence.  

I don’t know Ali Heather. Loki is just a prat a lot of the time. Spencey is alright when he’s not obsessing about Irish and Catholic victimhood in modern Scotland. I say that as a Catholic who has lived in and around Glasgow all my days who could probably qualify for an Irish passport.

Another absolute Twitter roaster is SNP Councillor Mhairi Hunter. 

Believed to be high in Sturgeon’s counsels, the thing that really stands out about her is her arrogance. Pontificates to her followers so high handedly about absolute everything and yet is so often caught out on rank hypocrisy and makes a general arse of herself. 

the astonishing thing though is that it just does not seem to affect her and she is unshakeable in her belief in her own wisdom.

Ally is a good lad. He might be a bit ubiquitous but it isn't personal drama.

Jim Spence is an absolute danger. As well as being the only person to ever come from Dundee and the only person to ever be brought up a Catholic he is also a cop shagging, anti Muslim, TERFy, Brexit  free speecher.

One of these guys who proclaims they are a socialist as it fits their identity whilst holding consistently right wing reactionary views.

Craig Telfer had him right.

Was one of his ex girlfriends no a bit of a nutter on Twitter? I seem to mind one had a rant about people sweating at the gym.

Chris McQueers first book was quite funny, his second not so much but still a good time killer. I think he’s carved out a decent wee career as a tv presenter on the BBC Scotland channel and doesn’t have much drama so fair play to him.

 

Funnily enough I got Hings out of the library a few weeks back.  Nothing world class but plenty of enjoyable enough short stories.

I remember hearing Jim Spence refer to himself as a 'libertarian' on a podcast a couple of years ago.  Libertarian of course is usually a code word for being a knob.

I’ve no idea who she is but politics in Scotland is a mess. If you run as an SNP candidate you’ll probably win, which has opened the door to numerous gormless bell ends running the country.

Nepotism and no accountability is a bad combination.

Chris mcqueer doesn't really fall into that bracket does he? Always seemed like a pretty sound and more importantly drama-free c**t.

I must admit I've not read either of his books but I did follow him for a while on Twitter and quickly found him to be a bit irritating.  Those bits he did on A View From The Terrace were awful too.

What's the story with his girlfriend?  It's been a while since I followed him but I did notice he wasn't with the old girlfriend and was now with some new more-glamourous lady.

I followed McQueer for years, he was funny and his wee stories he'd post were fun and killed a good ten minutes back in the day, I don't know much about his burds.
I know he got a bit shite when he got famous and his next burd he was posting with seemed a mile out.

Who was the footballer that got his first account banned from Twitter?  Something to do with said footballer DMing his girlfriend on holiday or something?  It was a wee while later I noticed she was gone and had been almost instantly replaced with some other girl.
