Do we really want applause-hungry politicians taking over the Fringe?
Political rivals certainly hate these performance pieces. We've heard Scottish Secretary Ian Murray blast the SNP ministers who have been 'grandstanding' at the Fringe, the likes of emboldened John Swinney who chose the occasion to megaphone the word 'genocide' into the ears of his supporters. And doesn't Rachel Reeves' Fringe statement about Jeremy Corbyn – suggesting he's panto villain evil – also reveal so much about yet another politician who comes over all gallus when behind the cover of a proscenium arch? Read more But hang on; isn't it fortunate that our elected reps have chosen to appear in Edinburgh's halls, tents, churches and basement venues? Isn't it great we can actually glimpse the true reality, which is that of the desperate showbiz performer in lurking? Wasn't it terrific fun when Alex Salmond appeared with his own show, a piece of entertainment so successful (in his own mind), and such was his popularity, he claimed that tickets were going for £500 on the black market. Unfortunately for the late First Minister, the critics didn't agree. 'The show is lazy, controlled and unrevealing,' said one, and typical of so many. They didn't agree either with Jeremy Corbyn's assessment of his own shows, a man who milked the applause of acolytes like a six-year-old appearing as Mary/Joseph/The Donkey for the very first time. Of course, there have always been politicians who've loved the entertainment spotlight, hence the great quotation that politics was showbiz for the ugly, endorsed by Gyles Brandreth, who was once an MP. (This isn't a line you can use these days, even if some of our elected officials would, to quote my granny, 'have a hard time finding a lumber in a Canadian forest.') But it seems the desire for so many to grasp at the chance to show-off, the opportunity to hear someone laugh with them, rather than at them, is on the increase. And it doesn't take long for the politicians fed up choking on criticism and desperate to get out of the job they've been paid handsomely to do to take off to the jungle to choke on kangaroo anus; think Dugdale, Farage and Hancock. Yet at least we get to note those who can't wait to vacate the debating chambers and take to the stage, those such as Tony Blair who didn't grow up desperate to save the world. No, he wanted to be a rock star. He wanted to be Mick Jagger. And that genetic predisposition didn't go away. But nowadays the chance for other politicians with the performance gene to do so much more than look after their constituents and toe the party line is so much greater. Politics has become so much more about performance, about offering up bite size punch lines. And the presentation of government strategy has changed. It's about podcasting. It's about building a massive social media presence. It's about the likes of Nigel Farage foaming at the mouth excitedly on receiving likes on Tik Tok. It's about taking to the stage to sell your new book full of the revelations you should have declared when you were working as a supposedly honest and forthright MSP/MP. Read more Comedy is about getting to a punchline, and that's so much of what politics is now. And while politicians embrace light entertainment television, they love live theatre all the more because the scope for revelation is so much wider, the applause much louder. But the fear is this love affair with the live audience will only get worse. John Profumo left politics in dark ignominy, but the only stage he climbed onto was that of Toynbee Hall in East London, which he often swept. In modern times a politician who exits under a cloud is now likely to appear excitedly on stage at a book festival. What politicians should remember is they already have the chance to already air their views. It's called parliament. It shouldn't be in a hall in a cobbled side street or the Gilded Balloon. And this increasing move to appear on stage mirrors, sadly, the increasing superficiality of modern life, where boring people try their hardest not to appear to be. And we have to ask: is Anas Sarwar or Russell Findlay only an email offer away from a cameo at Perth Theatre panto this year? Of course, this grumble about shallow vaingloriousness and desperation for applause doesn't apply to journalists. The only reason I have ever appeared on radio, television documentaries, or as Buttons in the Glasgow Pavilion panto in 2009, was to get the message across, which the public so desperately needed to hear. What was that message? Sorry, can't hear you. The sound of imagined applause is still ringing in my ears.

Noel Gallagher ‘tears up' during emotional ballad at Oasis Murrayfield gig
Fans believe the Scottish gigs are especially emotional for Noel due to his split-up from his Scottish wife. Around 70,000 fans descended on Murrayfield Stadium last night for the second of Oasis' legendary three Edinburgh concerts. But during one much-loved emotional tune, Noel was spotted getting teary eyed, which many fans speculated was due to his recent split-up from his Scottish wife. During the stripped-back and melancholic song Talk Tonight, from the band's second album (What's The Story) Morning Glory, Noel was visibly emotional as he sang the lyrics 'I want to talk tonight/ about how you saved my life'. And emotions were high throughout the stadium last night, as Noel also shared a sweet moment with a young fan who was holding a banner saying 'Oasis saved me'. A TikTok posted by fan Andrew Douglas showed the Gallagher brother welling up while singing the heart-felt lyrics, which prompted much discussion in the comments section. Many debated the meaning of the song, Noel's mental health, and how much it must mean to the brothers to have reunited for such a colossal and globally-renowned sell-out tour. Many fans seemed to think the influx of emotion was due to Noel's recent divorce to his Edinburgh-born wife Sara McDonald. The Oasis star and his now ex-wife Sara announced their split in January 2023 after 12 years of marriage. Noel's divorce from the Scottish music PR is said to have set him back £20m and forced him to give up their luxury £8M Hampshire home. The Gallagher previously opened up about their split on Matt Morgan's Patreon Podcast, where he spoke about adjusting to single life. He even described a cheeky gesture he makes when biking in London:"I can get on the bike and go up to King's Cross, and go down to the canal at Longfield Road. "And get on the canal outside my wonderful ex-wife's house and give her a little wave, and go, 'You didn't take this from me'!" Many in the comments of the heart-wrenching TikTok from last night's gig thought that the recent split-up was to blame for this sudden wave of emotion during the love song. One concerned fan said: "His last solo tour and his marriage breaking up really took a toll on him. I don't think he thought he'd be back playing to crowds like this again." A second commenter said: "This song was about his Scottish wife im sure they've split up tho." Another added: "Could be bc his ex was from Scotland i think." But others speculated that it was the song, rather than the Scots location, that prompted the tears. Another fan added: "Bc its the song he wrote about someone saving his life when he was struggling…" While a third fan speculated: "Noel is easily going through a rough time this is depression, those who don't know haven't experienced it. He needs love." The Gallaghers will take to the stage for a third night at Murrayfield on Tuesday, August 12. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'I took a DNA test and discovered devastating truth my family hid for 24 years'
A woman shared her heartache after discovering a family secret her family had been hiding for 24 long years – and now she doesn't know what to do moving forward While some parents choose to tell their children about their adoption from day one, others keep the information from them until they're 'old enough to understand it'. That's exactly what one mum decided to do after adopting her daughter as an infant - but the 'secret' ended up causing issues later in their lives. The daughter secretly took a DNA test with 23andMe after realising things in her life "weren't adding up" and noticing her mum's " weird" behaviour whenever she'd ask her about her early years. She said on Reddit: "Growing up I was always suspicious of my situation. I sort of look like my parents but I'd never seen a picture of my mum pregnant, she got really defensive when shows about teenage pregnancies or infertility would come on TV, I'd found adoption magazines in the garage as a kid. "And the one thing I never really settled on was my mother had fertility trouble, was in her late 40s, and somehow took a trip while super pregnant and I ended up born in another state in a random town? "It never really added up but if I ever talked to friends about it they said I was crazy. So I took a DNA test last year, at aged 24, to lay my suspicions to rest." She came to learn she is nearly 100% English, Irish and Scottish - and she says her parents have 0% of these regions in their DNA. The woman added: "My father passed away a few years back without ever telling me. And when I confronted my mom about being Irish, her response was literally, 'Oh that's kind of weird isn't it...' "She'd been denying it and keeping up this story for so long that it really made me laugh she'd still try to keep it up somehow." After confronting her, she says her mum planned to tell her after she graduated college, then when her father became ill, then on a family holiday - but she backed out of all of these. She said: "According to my mum, my bio parents were just college kids who didn't want a kid at the time. "She showed me this suitcase from the closet with my adoption papers and one old picture of the woman and some general information. "Then when I went to get my phone she immediately closed the suitcase and hid it again. She didn't want me telling my friends I was adopted or taking down any of the information. "I didn't feel like getting into an argument over it so I let it go and didn't remember enough of the information to be able to look anything up really." But then, she received a notification from her biological mum on 23andMe simply saying she would answer any questions she might have if she ever wanted to reach out. Seeking support online, she said: "I've been thinking about it a lot, though I have nothing to say. I found her on LinkedIn and it turns out I have three half sisters. "I also looked for my bio father, since I have his full name and now college name, on LinkedIn and I'm pretty sure I found him too. "But he specifically wrote he'd like to pretend I never existed on the adoption papers. So I'm not trying to go down that road, just wanted to see what he looks like. "I just don't know what I want to do with this information. It was a lot all at once and I can't tell my mom any of this or she'll lose it. I try to talk to friends but they mostly seem uncomfortable about it." Commenting on her post, one user said: "Your story sounds exactly like mine! I found out two years ago at age 25!" Another user added: "Respond to your birth mother exactly like you told us. You just found out. You are confused and don't know what you want at this time but are not against being in contact with her. "But do respond so she isn't wondering. She probably took the test to specifically find you. It is pretty important to get a family medical history from both of them."
