Anyone else noticing how predictable Labour are? They capitulated to the Tories on economic policies, and now they're beating the same drums as Reform. Yet, they're terrified of being accused of working in cahoots with the SNP. They'll never compromise at all when it comes to devo/indy issues.

This sand artwork has appeared on the beach next to Trump's Turnberry golf course in South Ayrshire, Scotland, a few miles from where I live. We don't want Trump here.

A couple weeks ago, I wrote that the MAHA movement does not want to eliminate chronic illness- it wants to eliminate the chronically ill. Since then, RFK Jr’s actions and statements have only reinforced my belief that his HHS will target disabled and sick ppl. www.thegauntlet.news/p/rfk-jrs-ma...

RFK Jr. ordered the NIH’s Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM. They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone. www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

Finally, some exciting news. Society might be collapsing all around us, but I'll take what I can get. And while I am sceptical about UFOs visiting us, I've always been curious about life existing elsewhere.

The big takeaway from this for me is 'Why are the unionist parties on course to get 41 seats''? Have we not learned that the union is fucked & does not serve in Scotland's interests? x.com/leftiestats/... #scottishparliamentelection #VoteSNP #VoteSNP2026 #AreYouYesYet #ScottishIndependence

Nicola Sturgeon CLEARED. This raises two important questions. 1. Was Branchform a political manoeuvre in an attempt to slur the SNP? 2. Why are Westminter MPs not held to the same scrutiny? www.thenational.scot/news/2502395...

“NHS England” is a Tory privatisation engine. Removing it sounds good. But the real problem is that Labour’s Streeting has sworn to speed up NHS privatisation even though evidence shows it: 1) Has worse outcomes for patients 2) Is more expensive 3) Politicians have never got voters’ permission

Changes to NHSE are being rushed through before the publication of the government's 10 year plan for the NHS. What is the rush? Is it so the Department of Health can approve access to NHS prescribing guidelines, IT and equipment procurement and patient medical records in a trade deal with Trump?

Labour poodle MP for Rutherglen Michael Shanks is not the sharpest tool in the box is he? Time & time again per head of capita when you divide Scotland's population into England's our NHS beats all targets that the English NHS attempts to meet. And yet every week they constantly run it down.
