“OK, Boomer” just got flipped on its head. At protests across the country this past weekend, older Americans turned out in force, leading chants, waving signs and showing that resistance has no age limit. And their passion isn’t just inspiring. It might be what helps save democracy.

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.

Scotland’s public services are essential - and we’re making them stronger. Your SNP Government is improving services so they are easier to access and ready for the future. Here’s our plan.

I want to live in a nation where every child can thrive. The UK government’s two-child cap is a cruel policy that holds us back and drags children into poverty. Where Westminster fails to act, Scotland leads - so we are ending the two-child cap from 2nd March 2026.

For those who haven't been paying attention (i.e. all of you outwith Canada, I expect), Parti Québécois are currently favourites to win next year's Quebec provincial elections, likely with a majority - the first time a secessionist party would have won a majority in Quebec since 1998.

Why couldn't the Scottish Government save Grangemouth? Energy is reserved to Westminster. Why can't Scotland welcome more care workers from overseas? Immigration is reserved to Westminster. Why can't the Scottish Government tackle drug addiction better? Drug laws are reserved to Westminster.

The highly memorable peat smoke atmosphere at the superb Blackhouse Museum at Arnol on the Isle of Lewis in the Western Isles. The museum recreates a way of life that was once common across significant parts of Scotland. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot... #Scotland #Lewis #WesternIsles

It is identical to the Soviet Union When was this ever a thing in America? A military parade on a US president’s birthday is basically the death of their democracy

This is a turning point. This is the line we draw. This is the moment history will remember — when millions stood together to say NO to Trump, Vance, Vought, Theil, and all the corrupt cronies and cult. Follow the movement. Learn what comes next. Join us at FiftyFifty.One. #FiftyFiftyOne #NoKings

Inspiring to see the photos and videos from around the USA yesterday. Solidarity with all those who marched and all those who couldn’t for whatever reason but whose ❤️ was on the streets. #NoKing
