What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

I no longer want to hear about corruption in Russia, China, Iran, North Korea or Venezuela, England is the cradle of corruption. London or one of the country’s overseas colonies is where the world launders its illicit money. This country wrote the guidelines on corruption, then sold it to the world.

It’s a pretty dire situation to be governed by another country. Humiliated on a daily basis. WASPI, Brexit, cuts to disability, Grangemouth, mitigating cuts... If the NHS down south gets major cuts it will have a negative impact on SNHS funding. Scots gov blamed. Laughing at you.

The Observer, in traditional centrist style, bemoans the cuts to disability support and recommends that Reeves "shares the burden more fairly, such as freezing income tax and national insurance thresholds for two years." Because God forbid the billionaires should be inconvenienced in any way...

Phenomenal news today! Support for #IndyCymru is at 41% & believe it or not, 75% of their young population (just like in Scotland) want INDEPENDENCE. The future is theirs. With independence they get to build their own future so we need to deliver it for them. #ScottishIndependence #IndyCymru

I've been 'disappointed' in all my meetings with the Scotch Whisky Association. They're a toothless lapdog and, under their 'watch' we nearly saw the demise of Scotch Whisky. They were formed in London, by Big Brands, and aren't interested at all, in Scotland.

Just heard a dire mistake on BBC news: in a report about the police officer caught up in the Iranian embassy siege they said the gang was linked to the Ayatollah. Wrong. They were anti the Ayatollah. What an awful error A recent piece I wrote on the siege here www.heraldscotland.com/politics/245...
