Seen the MacDougall's winter wonderland show. Really good! Worth a watch on YouTube if you're interested in Scottish Panto and need to occupy a toddler for 45 minute

Showing the courage of ordinary people, the brutality of the ruling class, and the stakes of fighting for justice. Peterloo is a reminder: democracy and workers’ rights were never handed freely, they were fought for.
Essential viewing for radicals and an interesting part of working class history!

A powerful drama of the 1819 Manchester massacre. Peaceful protesters, 60,000 strong, demanded suffrage and workers’ rights, and were violently attacked by the yeomanry. Great cinematography and strong acting from Rory Kinnear and others.

Been digging into some family history and uncovered a shocking truth!
My great-great grandad was a communist 😨
Turns out he stood in council elections for the CPGB, and was even the AEU’s secretary for Scotland. AEU later became Unite
Just picked up this 1920s AEU badge to honour the old comrade

This is a cool front page.... I just wish Mamdani was as radical as they make him out to be 😅
What's wrong with a city that's affordable for regular people?
Also I can definitely see a third red scare happening over the next few years.

They say never speak ill of the dead, but the dead can’t hear you, and the living deserve the truth.
Dick Cheney’s “patriotism” meant war crimes, torture, and a world set on fire for profit, a true friend who’d shoot you in the face with a shotgun.
Rest in piss, architect of empire.

Someone keeps posting about the dangers of fireworks and how cruel it is on innocent pets.
I keep pointing out the cruelty of bombing civilians...because of course they have a 'i stand by' a genocidal state as their profile pic
...I keep thinking it must be satire

Genocide risks can and should be scrutinized anywhere, including the U.S. But right now, the ICJ has specifically found a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza. That’s what this thread is about.

You’ve tried to minimize, shift goalposts, and deflect with false equivalences. Show me Scottish government ministers calling for genocidal actions, otherwise it’s not the same.
Here’s another example from an Israeli minister: Which part of that do you disagree with all these headlines as evidence?

Sorry to interject, but it's clear the hostages are not the objective. The IDF has killed a great number of them and there is no effort to save them.
You say genocide relies on intent...what intent do you think is behind mass starvation? The IDF shooting children + people queuing for water?
