It would seem the UK Gov is now making new laws that will allow English distilleries to make single malt whisky. Contrary to how it's done in Scotland, where the whisky is produced at the same distillery, they plan to allow a single malt to be distilled at different locations in England.

Two years ago, Labour opposed the Internal Market Act - which is nothing short of an undemocratic power grab from Westminster. Today, Labour have just voted together with the Tories against protecting the powers of our Parliament. Only the SNP will stand up for Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What do people think happens to public infrastructure when corporations don't pay their fair share in taxes? Your taxes will go up as corporate taxes go down. Look what happened with the water companies. Your bills will go up as you pay to clear up their mess. 1/2

''Born to reign over us'' This is the mindset of an average bootlicking, forelock tugging unionist. Essentially owning up to the fact that they are quite happy to be second (or even third) class citizens in the eyes of society. They have no self esteem, & no pride except for the elite & royalty.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Any British politician who still talks about the"Special Relationship" between the UK and the US is either delusional or is gaslighting us. There never was a special relationship but now the USA is overtly hostile to ALL democratic European countries and is siding with far-right authoritarians.

Sinn Féin does not recognise the authority of the British government over Northern Ireland. They refuse to swear the parliamentary oath of allegiance to the Crown. They also do not view themselves as British MPs & believe that the entirety of Ireland should have decisions made for it in Ireland.
