Youth mobility is mot enough, if we are to grow more strongly we need full freedom of movement back… We needed those Polish plumbers, Bulgarian brickies, Danish doctors, Croatian cooks, and Italian insurance brokers all along and we still desperately do. app.theneweuropean.co.uk/story/129288...

"A Canada-Scotland partnership would not be about nostalgia – it would be about redefining the Commonwealth as a modern force in world affairs." #Canada🇨🇦 #Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Remind me again why a chunk of the population of USA voted for Trump. Listening to him now would turn my stomach if I lived in the States.

Dr Who went off the planet when David Tennant hung up his sonic screwdriver.

How can Brexit Britain navigate Trump's World? New post on my Brexit & Beyond Blog. With the rapid deepening of a dangerous global divide, the UK faces hard choices. Could the latest proposals for UK-EU 'mutual recognition' be part of the answer? chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2025/02/how-...

This morning I received an interesting email from Newcastle United. Supporters who either attended or entered a ballot for a League Cup game can enter a ballot for a ticket for the Final. Most unexpected. I'll be entering.

NEW: Thousands of people have marched on the Scottish Labour conference to call for the UK Government to take action against Israel over its illegal actions in Palestine www.thenational.scot/news/2495595...

We all need some green shoots to cheer us up. Spring is on her way.

Trump and Putin !!

www.declassifieduk.org/battle-for-t... Tow the government line or be silenced seems to be the order of the day at MSM.

The British Government morphs into a pseudo communist state by demanding access to citizens personal data.

Independence needed more than ever 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 can’t come fast enough #StillYes #ScottishIndependence

Anyone who still believes that the UK is better off out of the EU is certifiable and that includes our government.

We have exceeded our pledge to deliver 64,000 NHS surgeries and procedures by the end of March 2025. By the end of January, with two months to go, we’ve already delivered over 75,500. And with the record NHS funding in our Budget, @thesnp.bsky.social will keep reducing waiting times.

Tomorrow's front page 🗞️ Scottish Labour U-turn on long-standing opposition to Tories' 'anti-devolution' UK laws

NEW: The Scotch whisky industry and the First Minister have slammed the UK Government after it unveiled plans for a legal definition of English single malt whisky

Brexit: “that great victory for the sovereign right to cock things up”… give ourselves food poisoning, lose control, swamp ourselves in red tape, pay more for stuff and stubbornly isolate ourselves from our own continent… A relentless, ruinous stupidity. (Private Eye)

"Just one more thing. You say you're the law and order president, yet you released 1,500 rioters. You claim to support the police, but many of those rioters attacked them. Now you're firing FBI agents and prosecutors. Frankly, Mrs. Columbo thinks you're a criminal."

courage.media/2025/02/19/b... The Gulf of America has relocated to the space between Liz Truss's ears. I don't know.. some of these guys are living in a parallel universe.

freedomnews.org.uk/2025/02/18/n... How many people actually know that there is a little bit of Newcastle that is forever Israel.

Are you enjoying the first month of Project 2025? Just over 20 months and we can flip Congress! Stay strong!!! RESIST!

Dear Scotland, the next time that the Tangerine Turd wants to visit his golf course, could you refuse his visa, please?

Two superpowers opening discussions on the future of a country which one of them is still invading, without that country

Scotland would like some of this too... by the way. #EU #FreeMovement #Scotland

You can bet Scotland's electricity exports on this new cable won't show up on GERS or anywhere else. www.newcivilengineer.com/latest/groun...

Massive respect to @palaction.bsky.social 👏👏👏 BBC has blood on their hands. If you think this is vandalism, just wait til you see what they allowed to happen in Gaza 👊 #FreePalestine🇵🇸

Canadians are preparing to create a retail blackout on Feb 28 of all U.S retailers doing business here. For one day, show them we have the power when provoked. Absolutely no purchases from Walmart, Home Depot, Best Buy, Amazon, McDonald’s, Staples, Gap,Toys r Us, Costco or any other US retailers.

I worked with @humzayousaf.bsky.social whilst serving on the SNP's Friends of Palestine executive. Let me tell you that he is not wrong here. Keir Starmer is nothing but an apologist for the Zionists of Britain who he does'nt wish to upset for fear of them withdrawing their donorship. #RacistPM

Jacob’s coat of many colours…delete where appropriate

We can’t fault the SNHS. My has had two 30 minute appointments at a days notice and a walk in hospital scan in the past week. We see this as normal but concerned when we read of some of these English hospital trusts having patients wait weeks.

After wasting taxpayer money going to the Daytona 500, Donald Trump told reporters that he sent the 2000 lb bombs to Israel for "peace through strength" and admitted that Biden refused to send them. Nothing says "peace" like giant bombs. Bravo Jill Stein voters. 🤦‍♀️

🚨Now: hundreds of thousands marching for Palestine in London 🇵🇸

NEW: A fire engine donated to Palestine by Scottish firefighters has been impounded by Israel for over six months 🚒 The fire engine is stocked with lifesaving equipment including firefighting kit and PPE, breathing apparatus and medical supplies

We need to petition @lbc.co.uk to have Lewis Goodall take over from Matthew Wright when he retires next weekend. Only the best could replace him.
