Woke as fuck
Why the fuck can't we all just live and let live? I'm not trans, but I know folks who are and the strife they have to go through in life already is awful. The UK state is a disgusting thing, if you don't fit in you're demonised by those at the top that share a certain world view.

Scotland doesn't need more fossil fuels!

Workers and communities need politicians and companies to be honest and invest in stable, sustainable jobs for the future - not dying industries. #StopRosebank

If he was so decent he wouldn't have empowered Farage with free media coverage. The BBC are complicit in the UK's downfall, I know folk that still believe it
I had my disagreements with the BBC under Tim Davie but he was a decent man doing a difficult job.

To see Trump's White House claiming credit for his downfall and attacking the BBC should worry us all.

Not here to be concerned.

Tees Valley mayor Lord (Ben) Houchen promised renewal. Instead, Britain’s biggest regeneration project has turned into a taxpayer-funded scandal - enriching a few local businessmen while leaving public bodies on the brink.

On any sort of benefits form you're constantly reminded that you'll be prosecuted if you claim too much. Doesn't seem to apply to the landlord class. Where's the prison sentences for this lot? What are the consequences? 🤔
The government has recovered £74m from excessive profits made by companies running asylum accommodation, the BBC can reveal.

The Home Office said it had recouped the money following a review of contracts after Labour came to power last year.

We can't afford not to challenge wealth inequality. Capitalism is eating itself alive, profits before humanity will wipe us out as a species before too long.
Every time someone claims that we can't afford to tackle the climate crisis, remind them that the top 2% have more wealth than half of Scotland's population combined.

The money is there, its just being hoarded by a greedy few.

He has no policies, his sole tactic is to attack the SNP. Never offers anything positive for us to vote for. Still campaigning on "change" but that seems to mean an end to Scottish Child payment, tuition fees, prescriptions etc. if only the media would expose him for what he is 🐀

Independence is a matter of urgency. Scotland isn't even an afterthought, they couldn't care less about us

🚨 Labour are plotting to cut Scotland's budget.
🥀 If the Chancellor breaks Labour's election promise and hikes income tax, Scotland will lose £1 billion.
⚠️ This could have a massive impact on the NHS and Councils in Scotland.

Alexander was caught in a financial scandal in 2009.

He's back.

The referendum was in 2014. We now know it was a stitch up.

Time to have another one.
