⚠️ ☢️ Ed Miliband just confirmed, a vote for Anas Sarwar to be first minister is a vote for nuclear power stations in Scotland 🏴 Scotland already more than meets its own annual demand through renewable energy - we don’t need dangerous and dirty nuclear energy up here

@CraigMurrayOrg Yes sir. To be exact, Israel had imposed a full blockade since June 2007. In international law, a blockade is by itself an act of war. And in fact, before June 2007, since the beginning of the occupation in 1967, Gaza had been under a partial blockade.

@AnasSarwar The politics of the Heart reminds us that the people of Scotland deserve representation by their own. No English party should govern Scotland and no Scottish party should be controlled by a cesspit from the south. True Scottish politics is rooted in Scotland, not #Westminster.

@johnadgrady @AnasSarwar @ScottishLabour John.. You know that's NONSENSE! We 🏴 vote SNP because they believe in Scotland.. heart and soul. Labour see us as a 🇬🇧 province to be exploited. You'll never change. Sarwar is on his knees to Starmer, and has no ambition for Scotland 🏴 as a free independent nation.

@bbcdebatenight @jackiebmsp The Labour run Fife Council withheld MILLIONS of pounds that was earmarked for housing. So it's not the SNP that's the problem. It's members of the Financial Accounting Unit of UK Labour in Scotland.

@bbcdebatenight @jackiebmsp ‘Simply not building enough houses’ she should tell that to her Labour run councils. #LabourLies

Incredible - Labour-led Fife Council somehow managed to underspend their affordable homes budget by almost £30 MILLION pounds! That's despite admitting there is a housing emergency and a lengthy waiting list of people desperate for a new home. https://t.co/gF0Y91lgsf

@RussellFindlay1 A 2026 forecast by KPMG suggests that Scotland's GDP could grow by 1.2%, slightly exceeding the 1.1% growth predicted for the UK economy. It looks like England could be further behind the countries you mention above. 🏴 time to get out of the 🎠 and out of the 🎪 at Westminster.

There are growing calls for a criminal case against Morgan McSweeney for failing to declare £739,000 in donations to his “Labour Together” outfit. But many journalists are missing a bigger question: who MADE the donations? I’ll give you the names they won’t… 🧵

McSweeney apparently concealed the donations “to protect Trevor”; i.e., Trevor Chinn. Asides from bankrolling Labour Together, Chinn has personally funded Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves, Bridget Phillipson, Lisa Nandy, Wes Streeting, David Lammy, + many more.

Chinn was a director of Labour Together from 31 March 2016 – 16 September 2024. He has funded both Conservative and Labour Friends of Israel throughout his life, and was personally awarded for “service to the state of Israel” by Isaac “no civilians” Herzog.
