THE SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT HAS NO CONTROL OVER DEFENCE.

THAT’S RESERVED TO WESTMINSTER.

What do the “campaigners” propose the Scottish Government do? Lie down on the bloody runway?

You can learn a lot about these people by always looking at what they consider to be insanely extreme, to be resisted to the death, and then by looking at what they agree is just fine and maybe even very good.

This should be a warning to any one not rich. Farage and the moneyed ghouls that back him, need higher levels of poverty. Stripping us of our rights would enable him to plunge millions into levels of economic hardship they could never imagine. Just look to the USA and the stripping of services.

The US since 2016:

“But what if Trump does the thing?”
“He’s not allowed to do the thing”
“What if he does the thing anyway?”
“He CAN’T do the thing. There’s no way he can do the thing.”
(Trump does the thing)
“Ok he did the thing but there’s no WAY he’ll get away with it”
(Trump gets away with it)
Yeesh I hate being repetitive, and yet...

It's time once again to remind my fellow Americans that there is no mechanism whereby state run elections can be suspended or canceled by the federal government. None. So don't go along with any garbage you hear to that effect. Laugh, and get ready to vote.

"The UK military supported the US operation to seize the tanker in the Atlantic with air surveillance and a navy ship, the Ministry of Defence says."

And that's how you get dragged into global conflict folks. Just off to download DuoLingo and brush up on my Russian.

Labour deserved to be wiped out in Scotland - period
Along with Tories, LibDems & Reform
If Labour thinks the answer to its unpopularity is to replace Starmer with Wes Streeting, a health secretary bought and paid for by the private health lobby, the party has well and truly lost the plot and deserves to be wiped out in May's elections.

All the wrong people are still moaning about the Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans ban.

If you are glad the Israeli thugs were banned from the UK and our citizens protected from violent racist rioters and people who took part in war crimes in Gaza, spread the message and let them know.

The government said this was the year it would turn a corner.

One week into 2026, and it has already debased itself by refusing to call out blatant violations of international law.

The government isn’t turning a corner. It’s driving us headfirst into chaos, division and war.

The killing of an unarmed woman by a masked federal agent in Minneapolis is a moral outrage and a betrayal of American values. There has been no justification offered—only deception and deflection from those in charge.
