If "Scottish" Labour had any leverage at all, Grangemouth would be safe, The super-computer would be in Edinburgh, The WASPI women would be compensated, The two-child cap would be gone, Pensioners would not freeze over winter. But it doesn't. It's a wasted vote!

Labour are planning to nationalise British Steel - to save the Scunthorpe plant from closing down. Why didn't Labour do the same when Scotland's last oil refinery announced it was closing down? Scottish jobs are an afterthought for Labour.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Kier Starmer just asked why the takeover of the Scunthorpe steelworks, being discussed by Westminster tomorrow, wasn't an option for Port Talbot last year. He ignored the question and didn't answer. I can't describe how angry I feel. Plaid Cymru called for Port Talbot to be nationalised. Ignored...

Ah lovely. Another bag of rubbish gets tipped into the House of Lords. The place must absolutely reek of stale Tory failure, corruption and abuse of power. Honours handed out like sweeties to some of the most undeserving, underachieving, overpromoted clowns and liars to have ever held public office.

I don't want anyone to lose their jobs, but the difference between British steel, Parliament being recalled, also H of L. Then look at Grangemouth in Scotland, WM even gave them money to go to Belgium, £600M tax payers money 💰.

Michael Gove scrapped the £56bn school building project in 2010 that was set to replace every single RAAC school in the UK. He then replaced it with nothing. Fast forward 13 years and they are all falling down. Whose fault is it?

Michael Gove used to ban teachers from their profession for life for drug use. He got caught taking cocaine and a few years later he's getting a peerage? It's as clear as day that drug laws are just there to punish the working class.

You know it’s bad when the illegitimate compromised Supreme Court voted unanimously to force the orange felon and his group of criminals to bring back the Maryland man they deported to El Salvador. Also, let’s stop pretending it was a mistake, it was done on purpose.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Now, why would the BBC paint Labour in a bad light in every region of England and also Wales, but not do so in Scotland? It's because the BBC are doing their part to try and promote Reform, but know it would backfire Scotland, and could end up gifting the SNP big wins in the 2026 Scottish Elections.

I'm haunted by the question: what would I do if ICE were to come to take one of my students away while I was with them. Would I scream? Take a video? Try to pull the masks off? Try to drag the men away? Start crying? Could I trust myself to be brave?

Putin comes against Le Pen ruling. Authoritarians hates any possibility of legal restraint on their leadership. Trump will doubtless do the same. Journalists do not have to follow this framing. There is zero reason for them to start a report by questioning whether the ruling is democratic.
