We all know Holyrood isn’t sovereign and can be overridden by Westminster at any time.
Yet despite 4 of 6 Holyrood parties being Westminster-owned, the Scottish Parliament has been pro-independence for 14 years.
Westminster parties have no place in Scotland’s Parliament.
Vote for Scotland 🏴 🏴

In Trump’s pay-to-play justice system, you can get away with defrauding nursing homes, skirting your taxes, and committing securities fraud. So much for “law and order.” https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=Tj1mzuAdV8zjXEpY

In case you were wondering about the significant number of redactions in the Epstein Files, FBI agents averaged almost $1,000 of overtime in the 6 days they reviewed them.

Never forget this: The forces undermining our democracy, rigging our economy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. We must keep fighting in 2026 and beyond.

@moderation.bsky.app Can you tell me why, as a Scottish Democratic Socialist I should be crowded out of my BlueSky account?
I suspect it was because I mentioned a word "swastika."
(Sanskrit, /swastik(a)/, "Good health".)
Another party, another nation, Germany 1933-1945, should certainly block me!

Poor elephants!
It's a slander!
Official statistics unavailable (Yet another cover-up?), but I'm sure no more than 0.00000000000000001% of elephants would vote for, have ever voted for, or will ever vote for Mr Trump.
Or even know what a swastika is.

It's impossible to be sustainable if you fly and thinking that the aviation companies have any sort of idea how to make planet safer, is like expecting a crocodile to have a conscience.
I look forward to putting these points to the government when we discuss the Aviation Fuel Bill in the Lords.

The story for November sea surface temperatures continued with the ongoing weak La Niña in the east-central tropical Pacific, as well as the persistent anomalous warmth spreading across the midlatitude regions in both hemispheres.

Time has flowed from seconds to minutes, hours to days, months through mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights. It has moved me, lifted me, broken me, haunted me, and brought my work to life. Forever grateful for this journey and for all of you.

Russia did a false-flag attack on Putin's residence to sabotage Zelensky's visit to Trump... except the Russians are so dumb they didn't actually stage anything to falsify evidence against Ukraine.
