The black hole in Durham County Council’s budget has grown by £11.1mn in the past two months under the control of Reform UK. Its cabinet has been forced to approve a £10mn list of cuts. https://t.co/t83mOLzE7X

Scotland subsidises England with the 100 GB energy jobs Labour created in Scotland ...oh no wait! #ScotlandSubsidisesTheUK
English schools in deprived areas are benefitting from new solar energy funded by GB Energy. Despite discussions with the Scottish Government and their allocation of over £4million, they are choosing to spend it on other projects while schools in West Dunbartonshire miss out.

The British Nationalists have already forgotten Scotland qualified for the world cup. They've jumped off the bandwagon. Only took a couple of days before they reverted to type and denigrated their fellow Scots. The media in Scotland (because there is no real Scottish media) is

GB Energy has only 9 employees in Aberdeen and most of them are on "loan" from other government departments. Labour promised 1000 jobs for Aberdeen. They lied
So a year from now – almost 2.5 years after Labour’s general election win, when they promised GB Energy would be the answer to #OilAndGas job losses in Aberdeen / North East, we can look forward to… just 100 GB Energy jobs. We are losing that weekly from the oil & gas sector.

This Labour Govt have signed over a dozen treaties without telling the other signature nations they cannot dissolve those treaties unilaterally or without a referendum. But Labour AND Tory Govts insists that the Treaty of Union can only be dissolved by Westminster.

More media propaganda. Think harder folks. Dig deeper. Read this 👇
The Beat of the War Drums - In fascist lockstep, the entire British media, broadcast and print, corporate and state, is leading with a Ministry of Defence press release about a "Russian spy ship" inside "British waters". No British media appears to

#PrivateAye Three 90-minute Scots get back to the day job.
🌹Strong doorknocking session in Knightswood this evening. People want action on local services, safer streets and a stronger future for Glasgow — and that’s exactly what we’re offering. Only @ScottishLabour will put Glasgow first.

@Wull_Tyler @overlandertheb1 @thejohnhannah Other way round. Ethane is a byproduct of natural gas. SHELL NGL process the natural gas, then sell the ethane to Exxon, who process that to ethylene/ethene

Genocide deniers must be the second most vile humans on the planet. Those committing genocide the worst of course.
@thejohnhannah @lukejcr Why are you lying? There is no genocide happening and you perfectly know it. What a despicable human being you are.

@thejohnhannah And now, where the matter of energy is reserved, no10 is touting for Ai business location with "cheaper energy" in England. Exactly the sort of scenario McCrone warned of in the early 70s because of oil and heavy industry locating to Scotland - and why Labour reserved the matter

DO NOT fall for it Scotland. Reform is made up of ex Tory and Labour MPs. Reform will do as the Tories and Labour do. Millionaires like Nigel Farage and billionaires like Zia Yusuf will continue to enrich themselves off your resources while Scotland and YOU get poorer.
Reform UK will scrap Net Zero and put Scottish industry first 🏴

There is a reason Broadcasting isn't devolved and there is a reason contracts are managed the way they are. The former keeps the information from the natives and the latter compounds the issue.
We react to Scotland's historic win against Denmark at Hampden Park, which was shown on the BBC for free ⚽ 🗣️ 'These are moments where everybody gets involved'

Scotland could go from the most expensive electricity in Europe to the cheapest. The fact that this is being pointed out and applied to one of Europe's richest energy nations is the bizarre thing. Why not cheap now? Because of the Union. Westminster is ripping you off. And they

Hartley-Brewer: Why is colonialism bad? Me: “When Britain arrived in 1700s India had 27% of global GDP. After 200 years of theft and millions starved to death by 1947 India had 3% of global GDP, 90% living below the poverty line, a literacy rate of 17% and life expectancy of 27”

No they won't.
Time’s up for ticket touts. The government is banning the resale of tickets for more than their original cost. We’re ending rip-off mark-ups and putting fans first.
