Recorded crime in Scotland is at one of the lowest levels since 1974.

Police numbers are higher than when the SNP came into office.

And all that Anas Sarwar offers is empty rhetoric, hypocrisy and no solutions.

They are all just blatantly taking the pxxs now, they know they have utterly corrupted and neutered every institution that exists and are now effectively untouchable, its been that way since the 90`s, now its in the open.

Holyrood can’t stop a Farage government. But independence can. That’s not ideology—it’s insurance

see my earlier reply, its a house of cards, more so nowadays than then due to the interconnectedness, but I get your point.

I`m aware of the scale, but to be fair 3 or 4 or four of the major hub airports would make a national impact, get people talking, it starts like that here one location walks out the rest follow due to being connected, the dominos start falling, within days in your case re time zones.

Good luck, to both of you, hope you stay safe, hope the recent flood in Alaska didn`t affect you.

Huge influx into London and Europe, we are on the very remote west coast of Scotland and are even seeing them show up here, in bigger numbers than we thought we would see so early, so for many the writing is clearly on the wall.

London is largely Muslim ? 🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are all American media presenters this thick ? She clearly hasn`t been to London recently. 🤣

Not all of them, the divide is pretty even, the right just make more noise and are more visible in the beginning, the left has historically been slow to emerge/fight back, its always there but is often hidden until sxxt gets real, fear the quiet ones and all that.

True, when you have lived it you know the story, old bones carry the memories, we are prepped for 2 refugees from the states, they are already showing up in our community, met 4 in the last 2 months, they are arriving elsewhere, the wide awake ones saw the apathy and wisely got out when they could.

Correct, my sons generation 18-23 year olds rejects FB, TikTok, X, Instagram, its all WhatsApp now, lots of internet research, sites like Snopes, fact checkers, he says he can check a story in 10 min, stays away from the cesspits, they are for the 25+ upwards it seems, the kids are wising up fast

Not so different, cracked heads, broken bones and injuries, jail, blacklists, oppression is oppression time and location doesn`t change it, in the end it always end in blood being spilt if not stopped, this was my era and much worse over 25 years, now my children's war, the struggle never ends.

Yes, 45 years ago when we didn`t have internet,nor near instantaneous messaging Apps, social media, etc. Just the telephone, pre mobile phones, and word of mouth, we got it done then, managing to turn out mass protests in days, not weeks, or months, led instant walkouts at work, etc, it can be done.

Once he`s gone what will replace him will be much worse, Republicans have been planning this for 50 years, its not an aberration.

No, they don`t forget, they choose not to work together until they themselves are threatened, only then do the bulk of people work together, and even then it depends on how smart they are, the less smart will often run thinking they can survive on thier own, underestimating just what that takes.

"rugged individualism" aka "screw you jack I`m all right". Always did think America hadn`t got past its hormone filled, testosterone driven. teenage yrs. Where beating its chest came before caring for others. Sadly it looks like its FAFO time now where the consequences come home to roost as it ages

The rest of the world sees what it sees, deportees planes still taking off, folks being snatched daily, news channels neutered, ICE shooting people now, military on city streets. We have friends there we know better than you think, we are prepped for them to flee here, already met Americans who left

Oh I know, I saw this coming when Reagan got in, I was studying the evangelicals in the 80`s and 90`s and saw how they were mobilising, turned down a US job offer 25 years ago and the employer/my friends asked me why, I explained what I saw coming (this), they laughed at me then, but not now

Yep I can see that, England has the same issue, its why the UK is tearing itself apart, latest poll has 55% backing independence for Scotland, Wales is rising, N Ireland too. Those 3 nations don`t think like that, quite the opposite.

I can see that, given key workers all tend to work in specific places how long does it take, in European countries or here it takes about 2 weeks or less, sometimes just a couple of days to organise and act. Why does it take the US so long ? Its been 10 months now.
