Spain is leading the way declaring.

NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR.

Be more Spanish.

The Giving your 2nd vote to the SNP gifts seats to the Westminster controlled parties.

That’s a simple fact.

Scottish Labour MP responds after husband arrested over China spying allegations Joani Reid said she had never been to China and wasn't aware of any lawbreaking

Joani Reid must resign. Anas Sarwar must condemn! Shame on "Scottish" Labour. By-election now!

Trump is threatening to militarily attack and invade Spain, an EU and NATO member, for refusing to take part in the US and Israel illegal war in Iran.

Orders all trade with Spain to be cut in revenge.

Partner of Labour MP arrested on suspicion of spying for China He is one of three unnamed men who the Met Police suspect of assisting Chinese intelligence services in the UK.

When Peter Murrell was arrested the bbc & Sky News immediately set up an encampment at Nicola Sturgeon’s home, and put a helicopter above to provide continuous live TV footage about the β€œarrest of Nicola Sturgeon’s husband”

When it’s Labour, no names, no TV footage

One fact the Media need to learn is that the USA aren't launching this war to make the Middle East safer.

They are launching it to steal Iran's oil and to allow Israel to invade anywhere it wants in the Middle East.

But of course they aren't allowed to report that.

The idea of removing the vote from people who’ve been here sometimes decades, having come here perfectly legally on Commonwealth rights and maybe not getting or needing British citizenship, is just wild, batshit crazy, terrifying stuff.

I know Europeans who’ve lived, worked & paid taxes here for decades yet can’t vote in UK general elections, whilst Brits who’ve lived abroad as tax exiles for decades still can.

This is stupid. As is already the case in Scottish & Welsh elections, if you live here legally you should have a vote.

Apocalyptic lust for the destruction of one’s enemies, and the desire for the end of the world, are not the way of Christ.

MPs' pay to rise by 5% to Β£98,599 a year from April Westminster's expenses watchdog says MPs are dealing with higher levels of complex casework and abuse.

MPs are accepting a pay rise of 5% bringing themselves up to Β£98k meanwhile expecting NHS workers in England to accept 3.3%.

There is always enough money for a nice MP payrise sonehow...

We deserve more than 3.3% after years of below inflation awards.

Zia Yusuf Chairman of Reform and Mothin Ali Deputy Leader of the Green Party are both British Muslims.

Why do we hear endless racism and islamophobia against Mothin Ali but nothing against Zia Yusuf?

Just in case you thought Keir Starmer’s racism was at a policy / legal level here he is joining in a racist attack on Mothin Ali alongside a Tory MP.

Keir Starmer is a racist.
