Debate today with a Labour MP on the economy.
Also with a former advisor to George Osborne.
Very striking how much Labour & the Tories agree on our economic system.
Time for change. Let's make hope normal again. Enjoy! 🙌🏼👇🏼

Tax the rich.

It’s a metaphor for the multi shades of Tory governing from Westminster!
The way this Govenrment are treating some of the most vulnerable people in the world is disgusting.
And they the audacity to pretend it's coming from a place of compassion and concern.
Their only actual concern seems to be dancing to the tune of the far right rather than tackle inequality.
Along with Scottish & Welsh independence plus a united Ireland that would be a huge step forward for politics within this festering “Union”
All the best👍
So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform....
Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally.
It's time for Proportional Representation.

Anas Sarwar has opted to ignore repeated polls pointing to Labour’s rapid demise in claiming he will 'prove them all wrong' and become first minister of Scotland 👀
Nigel Farage is unveiling legislation to leave the ECHR.
His arguments are wrong – and that move would be a disaster. @goodlawproject.bsky.social have the facts:

England’s lurch to the far-right is pushing the rest of the UK towards independence parties, writes Paul Kavanagh ✍️

In 2024, UK’s big four banks HSBC, Barclays, Lloyds, & National Westminster made £45.9bn profit.
Since 2021/22 profit margins up by 21%.
2022 -2024: Big four banks paid £124bn in dividends, £32bn in share buybacks.
They oppose possible tax increase, publish misleading tax numbers.
Tax them.
I love Scotland; its beauty, and because it's the land of my ancestors. And I used to sincerely believe that 'we' were better off together, in a United Kingdom.
Not any more! England has turned sour, and Westminster is now remote and incompetent.
Demand your freedom, Scotland. You deserve it!

Come join the winning side and the cause for Scotland. 🏴
Goodnight 🏴🏴🕊️✨
The Caerphilly result is what we need to see everywhere at the next election: people coordinating to vote tactically for parties which seek a fairer, kinder, greener country.
Pushing out both those who have betrayed our trust AND those who seek to exploit that betrayal.
👏👏
Any Scottish voters even contemplating this charlatan, take note …
So, Enlighten, the Jack McConnell thinks tank aka Reform Scotland gets it completely wrong again.
How surprising.
Jack was also famous for a £1.5billion underspend in the Scottish budget which was sent back to Westminster. All whilst championing PFI initiatives.
A rogue amongst a parcel of them.
Hopefully, a reflection of the fact Westminster is in such an abysmal state, therefore so is the “Union”
Independence the only way out towards any kind of decent future for our country and away from the increasing madness gripping England
BREAKING: Huge double-digit lead for Scottish independence in new exclusive poll.
The survey suggests Scots would vote to leave the Union if a referendum were held tomorrow 👇
Richard Murphy: Scottish currency is about showing faith in the country and its ability to govern itself.
Something he challenged the current SNP leadership to show more of.
SNP, lacks courage and belief, needs to face these challenges head on, not avoid them.

Catherine Connolly has been elected the 10th President of Ireland. I'm hoping this will be as good for Scotland as well as the Republic, And ultimately good for Irish reunification. #CeltsTogether
Cathedrals, cannons and Cromwell: lessons in power youtu.be/rdWn3XwFjyY?... Economics isn’t just about spreadsheets. It’s about people, power, and place.
In this video, filmed in Ely, where I live, I explore what my friend Danny Blanchflower calls 'the economics of walking about'.
Whole cabinet is terrible, they need sacking. PM needs sacking. McSweeney needs sacking. They all do.
Fuck it, just vote Green, SNP, Plaid, Lib Dem, Scottish Green, whatever else is vaguely palatable. Forget these lying charlatans and diabolical losers.
Labour is a toxic brand now.
