Perhaps Labour could explain this disparity? Apparently it only cooperates with the governments of other nations when 𝗜𝗧 is running them.

Will be interesting to see what happens if Plaid Cymru takes control in May.
Labour in Wales will decide how a £547 million growth fund is to be distributed – while the UK Government will decide how Scotland's £140m allocated is to be be spent, in what is being branded 'blatant political bias'
Labour 'bypasses' Scotland in growth fund row sparking devolution anger

At a time when the nuclear weapons are endangering us all, Switzerland’s continued refusal to join the #NuclearBan contradicts both parliamentary will and long-held commitment to neutrality and multilateralism. That's why on Dec. 23 Swiss civil society is taking action: www.icanw.org/swiss_initia...

Did you know, the global majority rejects nuclear weapons?

Yes, in a world that often feels bleak, with new weapons being built, threats exchanged, and billions wasted on nukes; the majority is standing up for the #NuclearBan. 💪🙌

There is one overriding political problem, from which all others follow. Until it is addressed, every policy advanced by governments is window dressing.

“Starmer urges Europe’s leaders to curb ECHR”

An absolutely shocking headline and not what I expected from a Labour government.

The Prime Minister won’t achieve ‘decency’ over ‘division’ by trying to be Reform Lite

As politicians across all parties add to the clamour for greater investment in defence, whilst at the same time fall in line behind cuts to welfare spending, It is more important to organise & call for Join Stop the War Coalition & Scottish CND to organise efforts ahead of 10th May in Glasgow.

🗣️This year showed both the danger of nuclear weapons and the power of our movement. The global majority backed the #NuclearBan Treaty & communities honoured 80+ yrs of nuclear harm.

Scotland needs more carers, but Westminster is driving them away.

Labour’s hostile immigration plans and their tax on jobs are hammering Scotland’s social care sector.

With the fresh start of independence, we can build a migration system suited to our needs and interests.

Does anyone actually know what Keir Starmer thinks about Brexit?

My view hasn’t changed: Brexit is a disaster, Scotland belongs in Europe, so let’s become independent and join the EU with our own seat at the table.
