Odd hearing the Americans today talking about Alaska. There’s something condescending or patronising going on. I didn’t know they felt like that.

“Whatever we think is happening in Gaza, it is far worse.”
Whatever we think is happening in Gaza, it is far worse.

The war crime of the 21st century is being live-streamed to a world allowing it to unfold. Life is being quite literally extinguished.

No-one will be able to explain this to future generations.

Talking to an snp insider recently who excitedly told me of an impending coup. The ‘secret’ was that the snp were going to bring back alba into the fold. That’s what they are under swinney, the fearful suits marching ever right. Bring back the thoughtful. Bring back the caring.

This 83-year-old priest has just been arrested for holding a sign which read:

“I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”

According to Starmer’s new law, this puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist, with a prison sentence of up to 14 years.

@theferocity.bsky.social Dear Saeed, I was wondering if you'd like to record a poem you like for my podcast? I'm working on restarting it after pausing during covid. It would be lovely if you'd like to take part. Let me know and I'll tell you more about it. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/k...

Campaigners attacked the UK nuclear weapons programme as “an unaffordable shambles” and a “disastrous money pit”. They have demanded its cancellation, and asked for the money saved to be spent on public services

As head gardener in Glasgow’s Queen’s Park, John McArthur took serious pride in his work. He and his team were all qualified gardeners, trained on a council apprenticeship that was,“the best in Britain at the time”.

Two decades later & his Queen’s Park squad is gone. Council cuts have hit hard.
