Sometimes politics is simple. A man who speaks like an idiot will do idiotic things. That's really the sum total of the political analysis you need to understand what's happening today. But political commentators and investment advisers sought to make it more complicated.

Scotland produces so much clean energy, yet Scots pay some of the highest bills globally.
Just yesterday, Britain wasted enough wind to power Scottish homes for 3 DAYS. It cost £7,504,366.
Zonal pricing could give Scotland some of the lowest bills in Europe: youtu.be/8-WUhBtB_CM

If one ‘equal partner’ in a union can drag the other out of the EU against its will, but won’t ‘allow’ the other ‘equal partner’ to hold a democratic referendum that its citizens voted for, then it’s not a ‘union of equals’ at all. #Indyclan #IndependenceIsNormal #Scotland

Does anyone have a contact for Ann ? Would love to discuss with her the possibility of partnering with her to publish her cartoons exclusively on @bluesky
Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.
He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

The only problem is that when you go to the original site an search for Scotland or Glasgow, nothing comes up?
I hae ma doots that it is a UK survey unless they’ve done the usual thing of conflating England and the UK. That’s more likely.

HMRC says it failed to collect around £500bn in tax since 2010. Others says £1,400bn.
£570bn held by UK residents in financial accounts in tax havens. Tax dodged.
Companies dodge taxes by profit shifting to low/no tax havens. No HMRC estimates.
Govts hit the poor, don't upset corporations/rich.

At a farewell dinner just before leaving office, his vice-president, Walter F Mondale, toasted the Carter administration: “We told the truth. We obeyed the law. We kept the peace.” Carter later added a fourth major accomplishment: “And we championed human rights.”

Jimmy Carter, peacemaker guided by moral vision but laid low by politics
The 39th president was a Renaissance man who should be celebrated for his environment policy and his work for peace

The Farage-athon in our media has to stop.All he represents is the weaponisation of prejudice to keep people angry and uninformed. But headlines about him go on and on, building up a myth instead of exposing him for the nasty little con artist he is.
Years of this shit. Please can 2025 be different.
