Anas Sarwar is dogged, rightly in my view, by the impression that he toddles along after whatever has been decided in Westminster and Whitehall, and that his UK party leaders are normally unconcerned about his thoughts on any topic, writes Andrew Tickell ✍️

Fourth is very simple. Will MAS make a public statement to the trans community when she becomes Chair apologising for how the EHRC was misused to harm it?
There is no group in Britain whose rights are under more vigorous and successful attack. The EHRC should not be joining in. /6

Lie 2: 1 in 6 on an NHS waiting list, it’s 1 in 9 in 🏴 so lower than England and Wales

Last year, the world added a record 582GW of #renewables energy capacity. That’s over 91% of all new power – with #nuclear nowhere. In fact, each year, nuclear adds as much net global power capacity as renewables add every two days.

Nuclear costs are huge and rising and significant delays are the norm. The result is that #nuclear power faces the same fundamental challenges as fossil fuels – uncompetitive costs, stranded assets, a polluting legacy and unrivaled competition from #renewables.
