Sometimes things have to change so that things can remain the same. Unify British laws/education. #GSTK #GrampianRenaissance #AbolishHolyrood #ScrapHolyrood

.@KernowKen257423 Nope, time is a measurement of a real objective relation between the sun and the surface of the earth at a given point. Claiming that noon is 1.00 PM, is a falsification of instruments, like claiming 50 degrees Fahrenheit is 60 degrees, 40 mph is 50 mph or 1 lb
@ClarkeMicah @SandraFretSmith 2/2. It feels a bit odd the next day or two , but we soon adjust. We sleep, work , relax, for the same number of hours , its surely arbitrary what 'time ' we ascribe to the natural and unchangeable rhythms of the planet. Maybe im just missing something.

The 1976 Labour leadership election was contested by Callaghan, Foot, Jenkins, Healey, Benn and Crosland - every one of them a political titan. Compare this line-up with what we have today, not just within Labour but across the entire political spectrum. How we have fallen.
🚨 NEW PODCAST: Was this the most talented Labour leadership election ever? In the second part of our miniseries on the 1976 transition of power, @richardmarcj and I discuss the remarkable field of candidates who sought the lease of Number 10 after Harold Wilson. 1/2

Simon runs a company building tidal generation in Scotland which has been guaranteed an electricity price of £246/MWh - more than 3x the wholesale electricity price in current price cap. Bill payers in England & Wales will be fascinated to learn how they are asset stripping…
Scotland, one of the most energy rich nations on earth &: - we face an energy crisis - amongst highest electricity prices on earth - over 25% of households in fuel poverty - over 80,000 children living in deep poverty!!! The UK asset-strips us. Holyrood is toothless. #Scunnered

Quoting the King: "I have grown up being deeply touched by the fact that British synagogues have, for centuries, remembered my family in your weekly prayers". A reminder to Anglican Chistians of why our tradition of state prayers should be maintained. https://t.co/HQ6dxPb9eC

A long-standing relationship with British Jews now places Charles at the centre of the country’s reckoning with anti-Semitism

I know a girl who has made the seamless transition from the Labour Party to supporting the Greens and everything they stand for. She’s anti-Israel, anti-capitalist, she hates the Tories and Reform, and thinks border controls are racist. You name it, she’s in. But I also happen

“One of the main problems in the countryside is dogs. Muslims don’t like dogs.” Liberal commentator complains the British countryside is racist and Muslims avoid going there because too many people walk their dogs, which are haram in Islam. These people are really insane.

His mother in law's solar panels are the fullest extent of his understanding of national energy policy.
My mother in law has PV panels on her home. She pays £8 a month on her bills some months. Other months…zero. I’m genuinely perplexed why anyone wouldn’t grasp that’s quite…good.

If wind energy is producing 20GW that means you have to have 20GW of conventional generation or interconnector imports on standby for when the weather drops off. You are paying for two energy systems. You have to have a serious brain injury to not understand this.

It's time for #Edinburgh to replace London as Britain's seat of Government. Why? Because the Great Wen has lost touch with the rest of Britain in recent decades. It no longer meaningfully represents us. Sad but true. It can remain the financial capital, like NY.
Call me biased, but London is a jewel in the UK’s crown. An economic powerhouse, global hub of culture & innovation - & now winner of the Lee Kuan Yew Prize, the "Nobel Prize for cities." London isn't declining, we're thriving. My @DailyMirror column ⬇️

The British government decided long ago that it needed unemployable somalians more than it needed a navy.

Looks like they're all going to meet in the middle with no party capable of winning a viable majority in their own right. Political paralysis at a time when we need urgent and decisive action.
Labour, the Conservatives, AND the Greens are all currently polling at 17.7%...

And if we transport ourselves back to the earlier part of the 17th century, we can see that it was not 'Aberdeen' that the place was known as, but -rather- 'Aberdone'. In other words, 'the mouth of the river Done' (i.e. Don). 3/n

Tragically Polanski is such a political lightweight it would be no surprise to discover he had never heard of Disraeli.

Trick question: they all held the same view.
When it comes to the perpetual virginity of Mary, do you agree with the Catholic view or with the view of Protestant reformers Martin Luther, Ulrich Zwingli, and John Wesley?

Facile glibertarianism at its worst. The greatest artists from Sophocles & Virgil, Shakespeare, Tchaikovsky etc all received forms of state patronage. Even in USA the tax regime is designed to encourage forms of artistic patronage.
.@JMilei: “I have nothing against artists. I had a rock band myself. My problem is that if you need a government subsidy to make art, you’re no longer an artist, you’re a public employee.”

The "Scottish Youth Parliament" only exists because we have so far failed to #ScrapHolyrood.
If this institution isn't turned upside down, I'll just assume all the people who could do so, and aren't, are either useful idiots and/or craven and/or corrupt to their bones.

@Adrian_Hilton Tony Blair should have a word with his old friend Barack Obama, the two tirelessly helped promote the toxic mix of Woke culture, Islamist influence, and hard-left ideology in the West and around the world.

Bonkers. Fr Calvin could benefit by reading some ... er ... Calvin.
Tired of Jews telling me how to be Christian. Repent and follow Christ. Hell is hot. Christ is King.
