"Palantir is not just a problem of profiteering from our national healthcare system— it's a fundamental threat to the democratic control of our public infrastructure + the privacy of every citizen. By giving our taxes to this company, we are aiding their operations everywhere."

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
It has taken over five years of murderous chaos for Republican voters to start to see what was obvious all along: that Donald Trump should not be trusted with a box of matches, let alone the most powerful office on Earth. That's the power of propaganda for you.
There really is no such thing as race. We all came from Africa. We are all of the same stardust. We are all going to live and die on the same planet, a Pale Blue Dot in the vastness of space. We have to work together.

A new Survation poll has shown a “miserable” level of support for nuclear power in Scotland. The polling makes grim reading for Scottish Labour and the LibDems who are both promoting new nuclear bellacaledonia.org.uk/2026/04/20/n...
Scotland is being dragged into wars we didn’t vote for, ripped out of Europe against our will, and tied into UK debt and spending decisions we have zero real say in.
But when it comes to OUR future, suddenly we need Westminster’s permission?
That’s not a union,that’s control.👇
Malcolm Offord has claimed Anas Sarwar “bounced up to him” in Paisley Town Hall at the start of the election campaign and said “we need to work together, Reform and Labour, to remove the SNP”. Sarwar hasn't denied the claim. Labour is so right wing it's willing to cooperate with the far right.
Many thanks to the people of Shetland for their warm welcome.

42 racehorses have died in the UK so far this year. 42 in less than 4 months. Yesterday a horse broke its back at Aintree.You can bet your life that if a single jockey died at the Grand National they would finally do something about it.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.
The US military has 22 sites in the UK.
Every day long range US bombers are taking off here to drop bombs on Iran.
This is a rogue state carrying out war crimes, and threatening more.
The UK Government must grow a spine - and stop our bases being used for this war.
The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military.
The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him.
Words aren't enough - it's time for action.
We were told by those opposing Scottish independence that there would be, “lower shopping bills for Scotland”, if we voted No.
Westminster isn’t working for Scotland – it’s time we controlled our own resources and delivered for the people
Doesn't pay any tax in the UK because he ran away to the Tax Haven Singapore to escape the effects of the Brexit he helped create.
Then he bought up hundred of millions of pounds of farmland to avoid tax, then cried when it was made taxable.
James Dyson is a scumbag.
This is Lord Rothermere the owner of the Daily Mail.
He lives in a massive mansion in the English countryside, but he pays no tax here because he identifies as French.
While the Daily Mail is registered in Bermuda and pays no tax anywhere.
That is his ‘Patriotism’.
CHINA ARE INVESTING £152 BILLION IN THE UK. BUT IT'S ONLY WHEN THEY WANT TO INVEST £1.5 BILLION IN A WIND TURBINE FACILITY IN ARDERSIER IN THE HIGHLANDS, THAT CHINA BECOMES A SECURITY ISSUE. AYE RIGHT, IT'S A WESTMINSTER ANTI SCOTTISH ISSUE.
🏴 SCOTTISH INDEPENDENCE 🏴
So, as a doctor I can’t accept a plastic pen from a pharmaceutical company because it might influence my prescribing decisions, but MPs can accept thousands in cash from those who want to privatise the NHS and it won’t affect their decision-making??? CTFO 👇
Well said Stephen.
One in six private renters is now renting a former council home, often at extortionate rates – and often partly paid for by the government in the form of housing benefit.
It's not just deeply unfair - it economically doesn't make any sense.

The UK government’s budget feels like the Titanic after it’s already hit the iceberg.
Five more years of pretending nothing’s wrong while feebly steering a sinking ship named Westminster.
We deserve better than this slow-motion denial.
‘Too little, too late’: damning report condemns UK’s Covid response
Report on handling of pandemic contains stinging criticism of ‘toxic and chaotic’ culture inside Boris Johnson’s No 10
www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
It wouldn't have been possible anyway - a point Sturgeon herself made again today. SG didn't have powers/finances for a furlough scheme.
Your reminder that the EU offered to freeze Brexit talks in 2020 so we could focus on Covid but Johnson said no. He then fucked up both: partying while 23,000 needlessly died & did a Brexit so shit the economic impact (-8% GDP) is worse than predictions he described as “the work of gloomsters”
Boris Johnson’s lack of leadership over the seriousness of Covid led to the first lockdown being introduced too late, which contributed to the loss of 23,000 lives, the official inquiry into his handling of the pandemic has concluded

My memory is that Nicola Sturgeon worked nonstop to keep Scotland safe, while London bumbled from crisis to crisis.

And royalty, covid infected Charlie & servants legged it from England to Scotland.
