Former editor here: "Imminent" means "likely to occur at any moment." There's no such thing as 47 years of imminent.

The Scottish government CANNOT STOP Americans from flying from Scottish airports it's a RESERVED matter for those who are not aware. Had we independence we could cut them off. Look to ukgov with your ire

Again, Farage, Badenoch and their fellow travellers on X are wildly out of touch with the public on Iran.

Even the majority of Reform supporters oppose their position.

I feel sick. Some of these people were praying that Trump would come and free them, and instead they get this.

Now our TV is dominated by the puctures of an 'evacuation' of those trying to work oot where to go so they don't have to step back on this Island or it fecks up their taxes when ordinary people in Iran & dodging billions of dollars of bombs being dropped on them.

It's important that Labour are completely obliterated in 2029. If they aren't, and the maths works, they will form a coalition with Reform. I'm not being glib. If this is the only option for them to cling to power, they will do it, especially if Sir Keir Starmer is still leading them.

The Northern Snob, outraged about an SNP staffer getting benefits in work. Worse than Chinese espionage. The "journalists" almost had a facial expression.

It’s crazy how it’s suddenly “wow we live in a police state” when it happens to white people

Here he is.

Yes, Strathclyde University hasn't much of a sense of heritage, but land in J'hill must be worth an absolute fortune.

When I was doing my PGDE, the Jordanhill library resounded with squeeing at videos and feet thudding on the seats. That was 17 years ago.

They do over engineer things. A journeyman loved to tell us apprentices about NASA spending £1m (60 years ago prices) developing a pen that could write in space. The Russians used a pencil.
I saw a film on the Nissan Hut origin, the yanks made a comfy version that wasn’t temporary or portable.

The next few years will feature so, so SO many columns and Substacks by people claiming that things were going well and Labour just needed to 'stick with Morgan's plan'.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

I can’t get over how terrified Starmer looks

These people did not pass through Twitter pile-ons or grin fixedly through conferences full of scum pig-people they despise, just to bandy crooked words with our witless electorate.

Fans of The Great Realignment of 2019, which turned out to also be a load of old shite that the hacks made up to explain the comical crookedness of British politics to themselves and each other, may recognise familiar themes.

I mean, we know Alexander Armstrong is now ‘very poor’ because of the VAT on private schools, but that doesn’t mean we should pay for his posh holidays.

Easy to make fun of this but I think it's nice that having implemented the man's strategy, Keir Starmer was willing to say such kind things about Morgan McSweeney at this small intimate gathering of every remaining Labour supporter in the country.

Dan Hodges' mother Glenda Jackson called the Iraq War "the worst foreign policy decision in my lifetime" & said "the most important thing now is that we learn from this horror."

How sad that her son is now cheerleading for yet another brutal, stupid and already catastrophic war.

Donald Trump cannot be trusted to lead America into war. He is unaccountable to America. He is lawless. He only seeks conflict to cover up for his failures.

Congress must step up, reassert its power, and represent the American people.

We do not want another forever war.

UK to further curtail rights of asylum seekers Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will tighten rules on access to accommodation and financial support

I see lessons have not been learned from the spectacular loss of Gorton and Denton.

If Labour insists on continuing down this route, then they do honestly deserve to lose the next GE.

Utterly infuriating.

This is great. Labour pledges to half the attainment gap in English education... by changing the definition of the attainment gap. Success!

Major new Holyrood poll predicts huge SNP win as party just short of majority A MAJOR new Holyrood poll has shown the SNP just short of a majority with Scottish Labour down in third just two months away from the May elections.

⭕️ Dave Smith: “I’ve heard the talking point a million times that Iran is the number one sponsor of terrorism. It is something that the war hawks love to say. I have actually never once heard a coherent definition of terrorism and then a demonstration that they’re the worst of it. The IDF is the worst terrorist organization in the region. Let’s get real. The United States of America is arguably the worst terrorist organization in the world if you want to look over the last 25 years and how many innocent civilians we’ve slaughtered.”

The IDF is...

Murder for the sheer joy of killing and the thrill of total impunity: a thing that should not really surprise us, historically speaking, nor in light of the tens of thousands of killings already killed in appalling atrocities carried out by or with the direct support of these men.

Who is the British billionaire behind another big donation to Reform? Christopher Harborne has previously donated to the Brexit Party and the Conservatives

Months after Thailand-based businessman Christopher Harborne gave Reform £9m – the biggest single donation to a political party from a living person in UK history – he gave an additional £3m donation in November last year, the Electoral Commission said.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."
