Isn’t it strange that the English government can find £5000 000 to offer a Chinese company to keep a steel plant open but can’t find the same money to keep Grangemouth open can it be that one is in Scotland and the other is in England?😡😡

We should be shocked, humiliated and ashamed that 4.5 million children live in poverty in the UK and that Labour is planning to increase this number by conscious choice. Radical action is needed. No child deserves this. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...

No one predicted the extent to which Trump would trample norms, ignore checks and balances, and empower a techbroligarch. They have dismantled government agencies, introduced widespread recruitment freezes, and withheld billions in federal funds. Are our norms and guardrails enough in the UK?

Only one Labour MP from a Scottish seat - Alloa & Grangemouth MP Brian Leishman - is planning to rebel against Starmer & Reeves's cuts to disability benefits. The other shameful careerists are happy to punish the disabled to protect the rich from tax rises. www.thenational.scot/news/2504361...

A narrative is recited almost everywhere: that Rachel Reeves is being "forced" to cut benefits, and is faced with "hard choices" or "no choice". This story, a staple of neoliberal doctrine, is completely false, as @richardjmurphy.bsky.social explains: www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...

📢 The strength of feeling about Peel Ports' conservancy fee plans was made loud & clear during my Member's Debate last night in @parliament.scot. ⛵ Scotland's recreational boaters don't support this & neither do MSPs from across the chamber. ❌ Peel Ports should just quit while they’re ahead.

Why is Labour hell bent on alienating it’s traditional support base? Why has England now got 3 right wing parties? So many questions. We should leave them to it and free ourselves from this despicable Westminster charade and create a our own fairer society. Are you Yes yet? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Labour’s cuts will plunge a further 250,000 children, disabled folk & vulnerable people into poverty. Labour has not only slashed the social security safety net, they have also set it on fire for good measure. Red or blue, Westminster never changes, poor folk always suffer.
