If Labour at Westminster can nationalise British Steel, why not the same for Grangemouth?
If it can fund London’s supercomputer, it can reinstate Edinburgh’s.
If it green-lights carbon capture in England, the north-east of Scotland must follow.
Scotland’s people deserve better.

Just take a moment to imagine the reaction to Barack Obama pardoning 1,500 black people, involved in a riot, which led to five police officers dying, calling them "heroes" & "hostages".

The economic cost of Brexit to the UK now exceeds what it paid into the EU over its entire 47 years of membership.
A colossal, unprecedented act of economic self-harm sold to a nation by grifters and snake oil salesmen.

1/ Ok, so instead of just making jokes about the EU Reset, I wanted to do a very simplified thread on:

This will be very long. I'm sorry.
Let's get wonky.
