Rachel Reeves says on Laura Kuenssberg that she's asking working people to pay a little bit more.

This was all under the cover of a made up "black hole" whilst refusing to tax the super rich.

This Labour Government showing again exactly who they are and who they serve.

What’s Scotland supposed to do? Consult Nostradamus to find out how we have another referendum?

Rachel Reeves says that even if the SNP wins a majority on its own at Holyrood the UK government will still not permit another vote.

It’s a democratic outrage

"It doesn't have to be good" - it is inherently good if you've made it yourself.
I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.

Fun fact I couldn't mention until now: At the time Graham Linehan was harassing Sophia Brooks online, I was contacted by her former teachers and School Safeguarding Team to get her latest contact details, as they were worried sick about her being publicly stalked by an abusive alcoholic celebrity.

England got what it voted for.

Sadly, Scotland got what England voted for.
Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Interesting insight.
It made profits but the refinery suffered electrical issues daily causing fuel companies to go to clydebank to fuel tankers, ineos didn't want to spend money on fixing what needed to be fixed.
