Brexiters said the USA would replace what we lost leaving the EU.
Whopper lie.
Brexiter Starmer even became Trump's poodle, only to be savaged by worse tariffs than the EU.
America NEVER dared threaten us like this when we were at the EU top table.

The Green Party have called for Proportional Representation.
The Left have 60% of the votes.
There would never be a Right wing Government again.
Lets get it done.

The SNP doing what no other UK Political party has the courage to do, this is why I am so proud of Scotland, showing the UK what moral leadership looks like in difficult times. The BBC will not show this, this is why Starmer loathes the SNP.
Dr Husam Zomlot, Head of Palestinian Mission to the UK, spoke movingly at the SNP Conference today. Well worth listening to his whole speech 👇
Very rarely is a Palestinian voice heard without bias and interruption on British media.

Well played, Norway. 👏👏
FIFA is too cowardly to kick the occupation state from all competitions so countries are making sure they don’t advance by trashing them. Norway won their match today 5-0 and Norway’s soccer federation says it will donate all profits from this World Cup qualifying game to aid work in Gaza.

Nowhere in this report have you said Israel did this. It wasn’t result of a hurricane or an accident that caused this destruction in Gaza. It was Israel and Netanyahu.
Tell it like it is Sky News. Israel destroyed these homes, towns, hospitals, universities, schools.
Israel is committing genocide.

Scotland does need independence but how do we get it? Asking WM permission to even have a vote will be met with a no as Starmer has repeatedly said. This is no union, this is a prison that Scotland needs to free itself from somehow.
The SNP's Stephen Flynn spelled it out clearly today: Scotland needs a fresh start - Scotland needs Independence.

Is there any other country in the world where its national broadcaster is against its own country?
