While still a newbie here, will do my one & only “please follow me” request
If you believe in Scottish/Welsh independence, a fairer society overall, the NHS, EU
And oppose the genocide in Gaza, the invasion of Ukraine, the rise of the right/fascism…
Give me a wee follow
Community is everything!

What Sarah says.
Farage earns more than any other MP for NOT being an MP. He says it’s “obviously sad” that part of his constituency is the most deprived area in England.
But everything he’s ever done, said and wanted has made sure of it.
This is the whole country if he gets into power.

Wes Streeting has received £225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

The bigger problem is that Streeting will, hard as it may seem to believe, be even less popular than Starmer and the Government may actually fall.
Then, the far right Farascists will seize opportunity to make the most of the chaos.
And the racists and hard of thinking likely to vote them in…

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk: “Putin has tools that can destroy the European Union as an organization, but also Europe as a cultural phenomenon.
“These tools are Russia’s fifth columns, present in every country of Europe.”

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP.
Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people
...to “raise aspiration” and “boost business"
It's £10ph FFS!
Lower your pay so you’ll dream bigger

Although could never agree with his right of centre sensibilities, can’t deny he was one of the very few Tories with a shred of integrity.
So, of course they got rid of him.

Dominic Grieve’s response to Nigel Farage’s ‘let’s leave the ECHR’ stunt in parliament is spot on.

I knew Gill and Farage and the rest of the UKIP crew in the European Parliament
They were crooks and shysters to a man
They repeated Putin talking points and appeared on Russia Today
UKIP then and Reform now are both a threat to our democracy

A link to my quick TikTok review of the incredible production of ‘Miss Saigon’ on at the Edinburgh Playhouse until Saturday 1 Nov.
I have seen a lot of great musical theatre but this might be the very best of the lot. It’s an incredible show.
Grab a ticket if you can!

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

Cannot stop thinking of Palestinians returning to the rubble of their old lives, only to dig through the bodies trapped underneath. I will never, ever, forget how this genocide was not just allowed to unfold before our eyes, but emphatically supported by our Western governments.
