But….. Our present Pm Starmer says even if we vote for what we want and win. ‘He’ won’t ‘allow’ us a say. Do as you’re told Scotland. Is there democracy here or not? No not really if one man we didn’t even vote for can decide our future. #Colony #Coloniser #FakeDemocracy

Keir Starmer thinks that this man should have a seat for life in the House of Lords. I don’t. Given the Prime Minister won’t reverse his own decision, the House of Lords Appointments Commission should step in and block the peerage. I’ve asked them to do just that.
EXCLUSIVE: Keir Starmer gave peerage to ex-aide despite knowing he campaigned for man charged with child sex offences inc accessing images of girls as young as 10 No10 investigated + interviewed Matthew Doyle once Morgan McSweeney was warned about him 1/

How long has it been since we’ve built something with this level of integrated architectural ornamentation, and at this scale? Berlin, 1894. The Reichstag’s central lobby.

The Hindenburg. 803 feet long. 135 feet diameter. Advanced Old World craft pretending to be a lighter than air balloon. Executed in front of the whole world with lots of flair and drama. “Oh the humanity.” The hit job took the airships out of view publicly. Looks a lot

Elon Musk says jobs will be “optional.” Bill Gates says humans won’t be “needed.” Bernie asks the only question that matters: If there’s no work, no wages, no income, who pays the rent, buys food, or gets healthcare? The oligarchs promise a future without jobs.

As we wait for the Darlington Nurses tribunal ruling it's worth pointing out that the English NHS is still allowing trans women to use female changing rooms & toilets in hospitals. So ... where is the political outcry and the condemnation of Labour? https://t.co/f88QZ6TESb

Thanks to Norway Scotland has a rough idea of the value of being asset stripped from 95 onward(when the NSWF was created). And that DOESNT include the oil and gas on the Clyde which was never started. Sure hate Thatcher, but it was Scots in Labour which enabled that theft.
Norway has over $1.8 trillion in a sovereign wealth fund from oil and gas revenues. The UK has no such thing. Also, despite having huge natural energy resources, the UK imports £40 billion of energy a year from Norway. Absolutely ridiculous state of affairs.
