This is oligarchy. This is obscene.

While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.

End this oligarchy.

The Iranian regime is spending £Ms on a memorial to a deceased head of state & religious leader while forcing more of its embattled citizens into poverty and branding peaceful protest groups as terrorists...

And, wait, no that's actually the UK Labour Government.

In 2003, anti-war activists broke into RAF Fairford to stop US bombers heading to Iraq.

Keir Starmer defended their actions and said it was justified to prevent war crimes.

Now his government is banning Palestine Action for doing the same.

The Prime Minister is a hypocrite.

WAKE UP! And listen.
"Nigel Farage wants to leave the ECHR to make YOU considerably poorer.

No state pension.
No minimum wage.
No state benefits.
No maternity pay.
No holiday pay.
No sick pay.

And ultimately, no NHS.

Nigel Farage is not on your side.

Wake-up!"

Three simple phrases to continuously repeat until he is truly defeated:

Farage created Brexit.

Farage wants to remove the NHS.

Farage doesn’t understand Climate Collapse.

On a visit to Aberdeen today, Nigel Farage admitted that he wants to cut Scotland’s budget.

That would mean less money for doctors, nurses & our NHS.

He has previously said that he wants an insurance based system for healthcare.

Don’t let Farage & his band privatise our NHS.

We've reached peak 'Oswald Moseley Time' in Scotland now.

Racists need to be confronted, ridiculed and told they're not wanted.

We've seen-off The National Front, in my lifetime.

Its now time to see-off Reform UK.

Nigel Farage wants energy-rich Scotland to become poorer by taking away vital support like free prescriptions and free tuition. And he has openly discussed privatising the NHS.

Only the SNP can beat him in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse on 5th June.

Humility. I'd like to see a bit of humility from England and maybe some genuine regret - maybe even a wee apology? - for dragging Remain-voting Scotland out of the EU with them, now that they appear to be coming to their senses. Don't suppose it will happen, though.

If it is exported through Heathrow the duties and export numbers are shown as UK not Scotlands
It makes sense for premium Scottish whisky and salmon, two of the UK’s most profitable products, to be exported directly from Prestwick airport in Scotland, so why is the UK Government expanding Heathrow to handle it instead?

Hormone-treated beef will not enter UK after US trade deal, says govt.

It has been blocked since 1989; still banned in the EU; unsafe.

How will it be blocked when it is common in the US? Who will test? Why is UK lowering food standards?

UK better off within the EU. Become a vegetarian.
