The Britcard (bleurgh) won’t solve any of the systemic problems we face: not poverty, not inequality, not the climate crisis.
But it will make millions for some IT companies & create lucrative jobs for ex-Labour politicians. Just like PPE contracts during Covid.

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.
As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

The UK should join the growing boycott of Eurovision if Israel is allowed to take part.
Eurovision is a celebration of diversity, love and unity. But that's not possible if it’s being used to whitewash genocide.
Israel should be removed as Russia was after its invasion of Ukraine.

The case for independence is most convincing when we are obviously straining the limits of our current powers.
Talking up indy but failing to use existing powers is damaging to our cause. People won't vote Yes if they're unhappy with the job Holyrood is already doing.

I think there's a bizarre side-impact here that the Supreme Court may have just removed protections against discrimination for women who aren't gender conforming enough.
Which would be, inarguably, the most anti-feminist UK judgement of the century.

the funny thing is as well is you can usually guess exactly who these "sources" are. Scottish politics and the Green party aren't big enough for modes of communication not to be broadly identifiable lol
The anonymous "sources" and "insiders" releasing anonymous briefings and sniping to Scottish media from within the Scottish Greens need to put up, slap their names on their statements, or shut up.
This craven, nasty, back-stabbing approach to internal politics is beneath us and needs to be cut out.

It’s not a scare story, it’s fact – essential PPE supplies during Covid were prioritised by UK Government for England and denied to care homes in Scotland yet, later, we helped them out
