I grow stuff, like doing a bit of photography and dabble in politics. Of course, Scotland should have its independence.

Many people don't understand that wealth and money are finite. So people having billions and billions of it means your money is worth less AND there is less for you. Extreme wealth causes extreme poverty and it always will. Billionaires shouldn't exist.

When anti-terror laws were introduced, opponents said they'd abused. Making Palestine Action a terrorist organisation akin to ISIS is deranged behaviour. History will damn how opponents of genocide were branded terrorists, while war criminals were armed and feted.

That time when Trump said, “Our president (Obama) will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.” 🤔

Britain must stay out of this insane war. We should provide no assistance whatsoever to the US or Israel, in any form. inews.co.uk/opinion/brit...

The Iraq playbook is back & the media won’t question it. Iran has no nuclear weapons. Israel — on trial for genocide — does. Iran signed the NPT & allows IAEA inspections. Israel hasn’t — & its leaders face ICC arrest warrants. Beware of politicians beating the drums of war.

There's your answer.

What we’re witnessing is the result of Israel acting with impunity. It is committing genocide in Gaza, ethnic cleansing in the West Bank & has bombed Lebanon, Syria, Yemen & Iran without any accountability. The UK must end ALL arms sales, sanction Israel & expel its ambassador.

Right now British Jets are flying constant patrols to protect Israel and shoot down any drones from Iran. This is costing you hundreds of millions, to aid a country committing War Crimes. If you don't want this and it needs to end, RT.

Boris Johnson chose 8 out of the 12 board members at the BBC, and they make decisions on a simple majority of 7. That is why the BBC is such a complete bag of 💩 Fire them all, NOW.

Time to start pressurising the IOC to pull the plug on the US holding the Olympics.

This article is a tough, tough read if you are a Labour supporter... But unless your plan for the next 4 years is to live in a little bubble of self-delusion then watch the party you support disappear into oblivion, you need to. Bitter medicine, but necessary. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If anyone is in any doubt as to the utter failure of the 'Union', Simon Reeves' Scandinavia, episode 2 covering Norway and its management of their oil discovery, is a must-watch. It will give an idea of what Scotland could have achieved as an independent country. It just made me so angry.

The reality is, Britain economically benefits from immigration and illegal migration is too small to impact most. The communities that blame immigration for decline are actually suffering the effects of 15 yrs of Tory austerity, under-investment in public infrastructure and the reality of Brexit.

It's clear that the UK govt. is now run by lobbyists and spads, with Starmer and his cronies, mere mouthpieces for the Tufton Street mob and their media lackeys. Time for the union to end and the nations to take decisions reflecting the actual needs of the population like housing, energy, income.
