This is outrageous from Keir Starmer.

‘Russian links to Reform need investigating’, he says. So why is his government still fighting case now in Grand Chamber of Strasbourg court refusing to have such an investigation into Russian interference ??

Starmer demands investigation into Reform-Russia links after party's ex-Wales leader jailed
The former leader of Reform in Wales, Nathan Gill, has been jailed for 10-and-a-half years after being paid £40,000 to make pro-Russian statements in the European Parliament.

It's simply arithmetic, But as we know many unionists are not arithmetically inclined as their red, white & blue tinted glasses do know allow the to even comprehend the equation.

Our GP practice was trying to get masks from local DIY shops at the end of February 2020. It’s ludicrous that there are people trying to suggest that the criticism of Boris is due to hindsight
"My NHS colleagues & I weren’t willing to let the bodies pile high in their thousands. Boris no longer mentions them at all."

My piece on the responses to the UK Covid-UK Inquiry report that try to airbrush the dead away.

Sincere thanks, @theobserveruk.bsky.social.

JD Vance is trying to pick a fight with Canada. The problem is - he's too dumb to do it properly. He just borrowed some lines from Pierre Poilievre.
@meidascanada.ca had to kick JD off the couch and explain some facts to him.

This American child was taken hostage by Israel in February 2025, & MSM isn't mentioning it—every single day

They aren’t interviewing his parents on major shows to share the story of this American child?

What have US done to release its citizen from the concentration camps of its closest allies?

“The criticism about late lockdown doesn't recognise that while we might have wanted to impose the first lockdown earlier, that is not possible for three of the four nations, since the fourth nation, England, controls the purse strings on that,” she said.

Again we have a London centric judge who is not versed in devolution making an obvious mistake with this particular part of the judgement and should be asked to clarify the situation as both Scotland and Wales had requested early lockdown but did not have the resources

Maybe put a wee gallery up
Only place to see stuff is on here. Sales via Etsy or Amazon etc only pass extra costs on to folk.
Besides, only doing it to occupy the hours rather than wasting away. 🤣🤣

Video of this train in Belgium spray painted with a message calling Israel a ‘terrorist state’ has gone viral online. Earlier this year, the Belgian government imposed sanctions and an arms embargo on Israel, before the Gaza ceasefire which Israel has violated nearly 500 times.

Interesting read. Jean Freeman's assessment certainly speaks to my lived experience as a citizen looking for guidance throughout those strange days.
I'm, personally, grateful it was Nicola Sturgeon and Jean Feeman we had in place.

If they were being honest and not taken in by unionist propaganda the majority of people in Scotland would agree with you I have family in England who were envious of us having Nicola and Jean

In times of crisis a clear leader is required. It’s a poor leader who does not surround themself with experts, then involve/ discuss/ listen to them. But the leader is exactly that. A leader. NS was a stable presence in time of uncertainty. And I love the fact that she’s clear she would be again.

I'm still astonished that the £37bn seems to have been glossed over. It's the GDP of countries like Estonia, Bahrain, Libya. Supposedly spent on what is basically a software app, that was ineffective. That it impossible to accept - where did the money go?

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.
