I don’t think this is going to work on the SNP also but really, when you’re this heavily committed to the bit, then why not at least try

I've deleted two posts about homelessness minister the Rushanara Ali 'evicting' four tenants.
The Renters Reform Coalition and SNP characterise it as such, but not the i which broke the story. (They were told their tenancy wasn't being renewed). Make of it what you will

Labour are using Palestinian lives as a bargaining chip, telling Israel that if it behaves, then Starmer won't recognise Palestine.
Over 60,000 Palestinians have been murdered by Israel in Gaza, playing political games with a genocide is barbaric.
Recognise Palestine NOW! 🇵🇸

It seems that Labour spends more time listening to Nigel Farage than listening to the people of Scotland.

UKReform is the next 'Trojan Horse' which has arrived in our politics. It is designed to infiltrate where disillusioned voters live. It will offer them what they think is missing, Policies are shaped to chide their fears from Immigration to benefits & public services.
But they are not the remedy.

Given the population of England is 8 times that of Scotland it means we export almost 60% of what England exports.
That is phenomenal!

Let's go Independent, John and say goodbye to English Parties in Scotland....John...hello John are you there?
Let’s build a Scotland that’s united, that aspires to be better, that rejects hate.
Farage doesn’t have a clue about Scotland - and Labour is too weak to stop him.
In the by-election next Thursday, only @katyloudonsnp.bsky.social and the SNP can stop Farage.
Vote for hope. #VoteSNP

One of the things that Scotland could do when it becomes independent again . . fair pricing of electricity, instead of having to live with prices set by England's use of gas.
