Environmental action can improve wellbeing in Scotland
If fairness is built in from the start, environmental action can cut bills, improve homes, and reduce food insecurity in Scotland
"Scotland can lead by linking climate and nature action to concrete outcomes that people feel. Lower bills. Better homes. More reliable local transport. Fair access to training and jobs. Social security that helps people cope with shocks, instead of pushing them deeper into crisis."

One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss
Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.
βOne mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.β
βWhich means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.β #CityMakingMath
Some costs arenβt costs.

I have no particular knowledge nor interest in Palantir, but as a public procurement lawyer looking closely at the public domain documents about the MoD-Palantir contracts, there is something concerning going on.
Two successive high value tenders without advertisements or competition?
Really?

We know what this isβ¦.we have pedophiles from the Epstein files running the country.
Immigrant detention is entry to human trafficking. It is human trafficking. These girls are hidden to be trafficked.
We need to flip the script on the administration and make them defend themselves.

Sorry Chipper. I'm not an economist and I rely on numerous sources to understand it.
The size of the Scottish economy is about Β£220 billion, which is big.
That doesn't equate to how much we pay to the UK treasury, though we are being fleeced.
GNP/GDP etc is a different issue.

Trump administration is sending pregnant migrant girls to South Texas shelter flagged as medically inadequate
Government sources and advocates for the children worry the goal is to concentrate them in Texas, where abortion is banned.
Pregnant children are being detained in a camp where medical care for pregnancy complications is almost non existent
Texasβs abortion ban means itβs an obstetrics desertβ¦and each one of these pregnancies is high risk
Half of them are victims of rape
Itβs only a matter of time before someone dies

Maccabi Tel Aviv Thugs Made Israeli Apartheid Relatable | Rivkah Brown
Come to a foreign country gaming for a fight, receive street justice and have the world leap to your defence β if you didnβt know a thing about Israel and Palestine last week, you do now, writes Rivka...
Ian Austin the Zionist in chief of the Lords would do well to read this. His abysmal record of covering up genocide and criminality as well as denying the violence dealt out by Maccabi in Amsterdam and against Palestinians in Israel is shocking yet predictable.
