Nothing illustrates the real need for Scottish independence better than the contemptuous ‘you had your vote’ response from unionists.

The Prime Minister imitating Enoch Powell’s ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech is sickening.

That speech fuelled decades of racism and division. Echoing it today is a disgrace. It adds to anti-migrant rhetoric that puts lives at risk.

Shame on you, Keir Starmer.

Starmer is swinging his wrecking ball This is Starmer's foreword to the White Paper on migration, published yesterday: The key section is: In 2023, under the previous government, inward migration exploded to over a million people a yea...

Starmer wants growth, strong public services and reduced migration. He might as well wish for fairies at the bottom of his garden. Without inward migration, his other hopes cannot be fulfilled. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05...

Repost if you agree

It really is

Today's performative clampdown on migrants will gut our care homes of desperately needed staff.

We are *already* short of over 150k carers.

Banning foreign care workers will only exacerbate this - increasing suffering of society's most vulnerable members & pressures on the NHS.

It's madness.

He knows nothing about Scotland. His ignorance is crystal clear every time he opens his mouth. Despicable.

The May 2020, 10 Downing St Cheese & Wine ‘meeting’. Lest we forget 5 Years On The May 2020 10 Downing St Cheese and Wine ‘meeting’, 5 Years On The illegal cheese and wine ‘meeting’ in the 10 Downing St garden in mid-May 2020 also marked another shift in the Tory Culture Wars…

Michael Gove used to ban teachers from their profession for life for drug use. He got caught taking cocaine and a few years later he's getting a peerage? It's as clear as day that drug laws are just there to punish the working class.

It’s borderline criminal.

Tory donations twice as high as Labour’s in last part of 2024 Conservatives raised nearly £2m, Labour £1m and Reform £280,000 from donors in last three months of year

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.

‘Don’t punish the vulnerable’: Labour MPs uneasy over planned welfare cuts Ministers say ‘unsustainable’ rise in spending must be tackled but many backbenchers fear changes will not work

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.

30 years ago today, the Scotsman newspaper became the Scotswoman; edited, produced & mostly written by its female staff. The paper's masthead changed for the first time in 178 years & women took over all editorial roles.

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.
