Sounds like a case of acute Epstein Distraction Syndrome. Nasty.
BREAKING: Donald Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, per @PressSec. This is a condition where veins have trouble sending blood from the legs back to the heart, often due to damaged valves. This can lead to blood pooling in the legs, causing various symptoms and complications.

A US-UK trade deal threatens our food standards, our NHS, and our ability to control Big Tech. Join the campaign to say no trade deal with Trump:

Say No to a Trade Deal with Trump
The UK government wants to do a trade deal with US President Donald Trump. We know the US will push for a deal that puts big business ahead of protecting people and the environment, including: Lower

It makes a nonsense of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act! Is this discrimination?
Really sad to see Lou Haigh hounded out of government on the basis of a spent conviction. It sends a terrible message about rehabilitation. The whole point of spent convictions is that they shouldn't be able to be held against you. Transport has unnecessarily lost a champion.

Why do Labour believe in private equity? youtu.be/R4YNFMhNiB4?... The logic of private equity capitalists is contrary to everything that it seems sound government, good governance, sensible pension fund planning and long term thinking should stand for. So why is Labour besotted with it?

"The SNP Government is to be warmly praised for what they have done. Despite limited control over their revenue and no powers to borrow, they have, relative to England and Wales, kept thousands of children out of poverty by building more affordable homes, keeping rents below the UK levels.." 1/2

“ Scottish Labour have pledged to bring back a Winter Fuel Payment should they won the next Holyrood election.”

Absolute Bullshit from Sarwar.

The Scottish branch isn’t independent.
Its MPs will support whatever policies Starmer proposes.
It always has done.
It always will do.

Now Anas Sarwar says he will “reinstate” the winter fuel payments. Yet here is Anas Sarwar just last month voting AGAINST reversing the winter fuel cuts!

This is simply another lie from Sarwar and Labour trying to bribe voters for the future Scottish election after their ratings have dropped.

I'm concerned that “big corporate entities” such as Palantir are trying to become integral parts of providing public services. Highly extractive corporate entities are always going to put their own interests first, not the interests of the NHS or other public services.
