That’s nice dear, can you now explain why our young people should pay for uni tuition like Labour England & Wales, why we should increase rather than decrease child poverty like Labour E&W,drop exam rate passes, pay for bus travel and peak rail fares, will you scrap the Scottish Child Payment?

Holy shit.
We're expecting a huge police operation similar in size to project branchform them (the SNP case that was about the same value). Digging up McSweeney's garden. Tents on Starmer's lawn. Arrests. Wall to wall media coverage.
Right?
"Labour Together failed to report donations of more than £700,000 made by venture capitalists and businessmen [including] £147,500 when McSweeney was running Starmer’s campaign to become Labour leader in 2020, while remaining company secretary of Labour Together."

Scottish smoked salmon is fantastic and much loved across the world.

But Brexit has made it harder to export and Westminster’s immigration rules are hurting businesses like Associated Seafoods in Buckie.

With independence, we can rejoin the EU and grow our economy.

65 countries have gained independence from the United Kingdom - and not one of them has tried to come back.

That’s because independence is normal.

🔴 NEW: Foreign billionaires are using UK companies to pour millions into British politics — legally.

We found £6m+ in political donations from UK firms owned by foreign nationals — people who can’t vote in Britain.

EXC: The Scottish Tories spent more than £150,000 of taxpayer money on MSP "media training" in just two years.

And all of it went to firms run by two of the party’s former spin doctors.

Not very DOGE ... 👇

Children in Gaza are dying as a result of Israel’s actions. The suffering must end.

Our NHS stands ready to help treat injured children, and I’ve urged the Prime Minister to support urgent medical evacuations.

These children need care now.

Where is the moral panic?

Where are @lisanandy and @Keir_Starmer?

Or are we saying Rod Liddle can use his national platform to call for state violence and it’s fine

But if Bob Vylan chants about actual state violence it’s “incitement”?

At least try to be consistent.

Anas Sarwar spoke complete gibberish on Reporting Scotland tonight about tuition fees.

"It's a Labour Govt in Scotland that did not introduce tuition fees."

Tuition fees were introduced across the UK by Labour in 1998. The SNP abolished them in Scotland in 2008. 👇🏻

🤷‍♂️ But the likelihood is that because we weren't able to get 2nd, it would have been of more benefit for us to NOT get that last minute winner against Poland to finish 3rd.

🙈 Because it's now been revealed that finishing 4th gives a higher chance of an easier WCQ draw 🙃

🇵🇱 Poland = rewarded.
