Bus drivers continue strike action over pay
Hundreds of bus drivers across the west of Scotland are continuing their strike action over pay. The Unite union said Stagecoach had failed to improve on a 4% "strings attached" offer tabled last November. It said 98% of its members had voted in favour of the industrial action - involving drivers at depots in Ayr, Arran, Ardrossan, and Kilmarnock. Stagecoach has said it wants a "fair and sustainable" pay deal for drivers that preserves the viability of bus services. The industrial action began last month and is planned to continue with six weeks of continuous action between 9 June and 21 July. Pickets were expected all day at the company's Ayr and Kilmarnock bus stations. Stagecoach said its services would be disrupted due to the industrial action. It said it planned to operate a "limited service with the drivers available". "We're working hard to minimise the impact of this disruption, but unfortunately, the limited services we're running will affect customers travelling in and around Ayrshire," it said on its website. "We're very sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and understanding." It said it would share any updates of the impact on its services via its website.

Labour Surprises in Scotland With Win Over Farage, Nationalists
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's Labour Party won a Scottish parliamentary by-election, a surprise result that deals a blow to both the Scottish nationalists and Nigel Farage's Reform UK party. Labour's Davy Russell won the vote in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse, denying Farage's populist party its first electoral victory in Scotland and setting back the Scottish National Party, which runs the semi-autonomous government and held the seat since 2011.

Humanity According to Alasdair MacIntrye
One of the world's greatest Catholic philosophers died May 21. Alasdair Chalmers MacIntyre was 96. Normally classified as a philosopher of ethics, MacIntyre was a fierce critic of modern ethical theory. His writings drew deeply from a wide array of fields, including theology, social science, psychology, history and literature, but he never pursued a doctorate. Born in Glasgow, he received master's degrees from Manchester and Oxford, later telling a student: 'I won't go so far as to say that you have a deformed mind if you have a Ph.D., but you will have to work extra hard to remain educated.'
