In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.
249 years later, we have this idiot.
After France, Denmark is moving too: its Digitalisation Ministry plans to phase out Microsoft, switching to Linux and LibreOffice in the coming months. The goal is clear—reduce dependence on a handful of global tech giants and strengthen digital sovereignty.
It’s really not that damn difficult to be a decent human being. Y’all should try it once in a while, MAGA.
In the 1990s, the working class of this country was told that unfettered free trade would create millions of new jobs and raise wages.
As many of us understood then, that claim was a lie.
Now they’re being sold the same false promises about AI.

Palantir in the NHS is linked to Mandelson
Mandelson is linked to Wes Streeting
Wes Streeting is defending Palantir’s involvement in the #NHS
Nothing to see or everything to see
Palantir must be removed from the NHS
Labour Cabinet minister Nick Thomas-Symonds is a biographer of past successful Labour PMs: Clement Attlee and Harold Wilson. He is on #c4news defending the tawdry leadership of Keir Starmer who misled Parliament & did not apologise for that today.
I think this sums up what many people think: Scotland has improved enormously under the SNP, much more than England under the London parties in the same period. We need to protect that, as well as building for the future.

I used to 'respect the opinion' of anyone who like the frog-mouthed wanker.
I put it down to them being old, selfish, slightly unenlightened and more than a little entitled
Now, I think they're dangerous racists.
He's an awful fucker.
Unimprovable headline
From the latest Private Eye, out now.
And anybody who knows anything about the probability theory behind polling will tell you one basic fact. That on its own a single poll tells us very little. What matters is the overall trend over a time series of polls.
One freak outlier doesn’t change that trend.
'Great Britain' is really just England and their ethnic cleansing base in Northem Ireland, Ulster.
Scotland and Wales are 100% irrelevant, in any decision making.
It's 2026.
The BBC, & its BBC Scotland branch office in particular, is damaging our democracy, (such as it is). How on earth have we gone from my parents’ generation when BBC was trusted, to now, when only the feeble-minded would view BBC as any kind of standard of balance or actuality.

Poster with text - Why is it so difficult for Unionists to say . . “Yes, let’s have a referendum and if Scotland votes for independence we’ll leave an open invitation to welcome Scotland back if it changes its mind in the future.” Wouldn’t that be an honest, and humane way of dealing with this whole issue?

Maybe Starmer would have more support if he didn’t bring a paedophile loving, dishonest and potential traitor into government?
Or if he hadn’t turned Labour into a Zionist supporting disaster of a party. Intent on destroying the basic rights, freedoms and protections of minorities.
Vote Green!
"Data seen by The BMJ suggest that pilots, run at Chelsea and Westminster Foundation Trust and subsequently promoted as a Palantir success story, are flawed"

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
So an outlier poll. Two weeks out. How very normal.
Remember what Unionism has spent 10 years telling us.
“One poll doesn’t matter, what matters is the trend”. And the trend is towards a 60+ SNP victory and an Indy total (SNP/Green) of 70.
One single poll changes nothing.
They’re all at it.
Never vote labour on any list.
Surely Farage's partner and ex wife would have to go back to their safe European countries under Reform's migration policy. #r4today
In a nutshell. 😊

This country!
I suppose it will come down to whether you believe Starmer would not have appointed Mandelson if he knew he failed the vetting.
He was prepared to overlook all the issues already flagged by the Cabinet Office. If they were the same issues, would he really have said, actually let's cancel it?
Tories have selective memories. The serial liar Boris Johnson was promoted to Foreign Secretary by Theresa May having failed his security vetting. He then ‘evaded’ his minders to attend a party overseen by the Russian FSB, and promoted a Russian agent to the HoL. Where was the outrage from the MSM?
Two wrongs do not make a right, but it is important to remember the terrible decisions that brought us to our current dismal political state
Tax Dodge Tice: "If anybody from any other party had been in that situation and tried to dodge paying tax.. if she (Angela Rayner) had any integrity, and moral decency, given her position... she would offer her resignation." #UKPolitics
