Politicians for Sale. UK political parties accepted £100m in donations in 2024. Donations are bribes made to exercise influence, subvert public choices and ensure that corporations/rich rule. Normal people can't compete. Can't cleanse politics without banning donations.

I don't want Labour MPs to be 'uneasy' about a Labour Govt penalising the disabled instead of raising taxes on the wealthiest. I want them to be wracked with guilt and shame and questioning how they find themselves in a party that acts like the Tories. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

UK Government, using Pension savings, to funnel to Corporate War Industries, to fund Ukraine & Israeli Bombs, that's what UK money is for, more UK Wars.

From this,45 different accounts were identified as repeatedly promoting Reform UK through their comments, to drum up support for the party. Twenty three of those accounts had enough data for ITV News to analyse properly. Experts working with ITV News believe more than half of the accounts are bots

Exporting directly from Scotland, via Prestwick or other hubs would boost Scotland's economy and jobs. However, UK trade policies and logistics centralisation mean many exports go through larger UK hubs. Greater Scottish control over trade routes would maximise benefits for Scotland.

Im shocked 😳 No mention of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation report on Scotland’s success in combating child poverty on Reporting Scotland despite it being reported on STV News. I cant remember the last time BBC Scotland reported anything positive about Scotland. news.stv.tv/scotland/sco...

Economic growth alone not enough to cut child poverty. One in three children will be in poverty in England. Must end two child benefit cap. Redistribute income/wealth. Learn from Scottish Govt which has better record of dealing with child poverty. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

I am very proud that Scotland is actively trying to stop child poverty. Not only the Scottish Child Payment but also free school meals, free bus travel for u22s and various other measures to help lowest income families. www.nesta.org.uk/blog/why-are...

10,000 of 3,000,000 millionaires left the country last year - 0.33%. These people would rather leave than pay tax - good riddance I say. Let’s not change our approach to appease rich freeloaders.

This is what pisses me off the most about Labour's backtracking on non-dom status. Reeves said: "We have been listening to the concerns that have been raised by the non-dom community." But not listening to pensioners, Waspi women, the poor or the disabled. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

New UK pensions minister has called to scrap ‘rubbish’ triple lock on state pension. Labour/Tories gunning for pensioners, condemning them to poverty. The issue isn't Young v Old. It is justice, equity, humanity. Young will get old too & face premature death. Fight for rights. archive.ph/NmDpE

'For the benefit of BBC Scotland’s users: a recent review of Scotland’s school estate reminds us that in 2007, before the SNP came to power, 37.3% of schools were in poor or bad condition – equating to 993 schools. Now the figure is 8.3%! ' @talking-upscotland.bsky.social talkingupscotlandtwo...

During last year’s election campaign, Anas Sarwar told me: “read my lips, no austerity under Labour”. The reports of Labour’s planned cuts are deeply concerning, and any more Westminster austerity would push more people into poverty.

The entire point of PIP is to help disabled people cover these extra costs. I'm just grateful that I have been transferred to the new Scottish Adult Disability Payment, but this will be a new Westminster cut ScotGov will have to mitigate out of a fixed budget Westminster is squeezing.
