Now we see the President of the United States say he’d arrest a sitting American governor for disagreeing with these actions.

This is a hallmark of authoritarianism on the road to tyranny – and all Americans should be shocked and appalled by the President’s blatant disregard for our Constitution.

It’s not a surprise that the man who purposely incited a violent attempt to overthrow an American election would now purposely incite violence on the streets of Los Angeles as a justification for military force against American citizens.

Not a surprise at all.

Bill stripping child labor protections in Florida to allow minors to work without breaks and before 6am and after 11pm on school nights just passed its final House committee. Public testimony was limited to one minute. Same bill DeSantis said is meant to replace migrant workers.

Nigel Farage says first thing he would do as PM if he won a GE would be to remove UK from the ECHR
YouTube video by Peter Stefanovic Nigel Farage says first thing he would do as PM if he won a GE would be to remove UK from the ECHR

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights

That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK.

THIS IS WHY

Just so everyone knows, there will never be any deals, under any circumstances, between the SNP and Nigel Farage.

The SNP stand against his divisive politics.

My latest blog piece, Scotland is becoming ever more interested in independence, support for Scotland remaining part of the UK is literally dying off.

Brexit to blame for London’s millionaire exodus, Lisa Nandy claims London is no longer one of the top five wealthiest cities in the world after losing a higher proportion of millionaires than anywhere other than Moscow, a new report indicates

Scotland DIDN'T Vote for Brexit.

I've absolutely no idea why anyone sensible now doesn't want Scottish Independence?

It's baffling. There's not even an argument any more.

Dear World,

I’m an American. I apologize to you all that we put a thoroughly bad, cruel, ignorant madman back in the White House. Many, many Americans apologize. Don’t appease him, don’t coddle him. Stand up to him & punch back at his stupidity.

Best,

An Anti-Trump American

Scotland's Sons & daughter's should not be used as cannon fodder for the UK's so called 'Peace keeping' forces in Ukraine & John Swinney should not be so ready to offer them as such regardless of our solidarity & support. Starmer is playing a dangerous game.

The Russian-backed government of Serbia under pressure tonight as massive protests fill the center of Belgrade.

It seems that only the US hasn't gotten the note that Russian-backed fascism just isn't cool anymore.

Rarely will I share anything from @dailymail.co.uk But it's a sad day when you agree with a right wing, Tory supporting propaganda sheet that we should not be inviting a bully into the UK. And the thought of him in Scotland is even more repugnant.
