Scottish Languages Bill. A bar graph shows the results of the vote: Yes - 112, No - 0, Abstain - 0.
The Scottish Languages Bill has passed this evening @parliament.scot. The results of the vote at Stage 3 were:
✅ Yes - 112
❎ No - 0
There were no abstentions.
The Bill gives the #Gaelic and #Scots languages official status in Scotland and includes changes to Gaelic and Scots education.
Fraser epitomises the audience kf Neo-Schlaflyite transphobia. A reactionary straight man who opposes gay marriage and abortion, a consistent misogynist to female politicians his whole career.
But then transphobes come along offering him a pretext to claim to be the *real* defender of women & gays.
This Republican Senator - a pro-Israel zealot and Trump ally - is openly threatening the life of Greta Thunberg and others on the Gaza aid ship.
Why? Because they're trying to bring aid to a Gaza starved by a key US ally.
The world is run by gangsters.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.

Photograph of a holly sapling in a small hessian gift bag. In the background is the peak of Eigg's highest hill, An Sgurr. It is a sunny day with blue sky and autumnal bracken on the hillside.
Looking for that perfect Christmas gift?!
How about an ethical gift that will keep growing and give a lifetime (or more) of enjoyment?
