Keir Starmer not condemning Trump will see UK 'dragged into war', warns Zack Polanski

Zack Polanski has said it is 'quite astounding' that Keir Starmer is 'incapable' of standing up to Donald Trump and condemning the United States attacks on Iran, as he fears the UK will be 'pulled into another illegal war'

The more the SNP dominate constituencies the more their Regional List vote is neutralised.

Scottish Greens condemn US attacks on Iran Scottish Greens condemn US attacks on Iran - Donald Trump is acting like a gangster on the world stage.

This is reckless and destructive behaviour from a White House that has shown total contempt for human rights, international law and negotiations.

As always it's civilians who pay the price.

Funny how politicians who are most keen on whining about immigration and refugees and asylum seekers are also very keen on starting the wars that create refugees and asylum seekers.

The schadenfruede is strong today about Matt Goodwin losing heavily to the Greens in Gorton & Denton. I can't imagine the levels of twattishness it takes to spend months punching down on British Muslims and then being upset that they didn't vote for you.

It's a hopeful moment, but we need to brace ourselves, writes Owen Jones. โœ๏ธ

From the 'Project Fear' Scots are so familiar with, to the brutal demonisation of Jeremy Corbyn, modern history shows us the tactics the establishment will use against Zack Polanski and the Greens

The choice facing Scotland is independence or fascism. A major new poll was published on Wednesday which confirms other recent polls in showing that Scots are on track to elect a pro-independence majority to Holyrood in Mayโ€™s election. Even betteโ€ฆ

ANOTHER U-turn for Labour as they ditch their promise to pay all adults the same minimum wage.

A betrayal that will live long in the memory of young folk.

It's time to evict Trump's troops from Scotland.

The US under Trump is increasingly becoming a rogue state, from invading Venezuela to threatening Greenland. Scotland must not be complicit in his crimes.

Petition: Call a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on politics & democracy We are concerned about reported Israeli state-linked and pro-Israel lobbying activity in UK politics. We believe it is important to determine the scope and impact of any such influence campaigns.

Health board bosses in Scotland have 10% pay rise put on hold Executives at NHS Lothian and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde were previously handed temporary rises worth up to ยฃ20,000 per year.

On the day that Scotlandโ€™s First Minister opens the countryโ€™s first walk-in GP clinic, the BBC ignore it completely and focus on some peripheral SNP bad shite.

Welcome to Scotland, the country whose media want it to fail.

Labour sleaze and its dangerous association with Palantir To paraphrase Shakespeare, Oh what a revolting web we weave when we mire ourselves in sleaze. Labourโ€™s self inflicted paedophile adjacent chaos continues. Starmer has now belatedly removed thโ€ฆ

Labour sleaze and its dangerous association with Palantir. Anas Sarwar's incessant attacks on NHS Scotland are an attempt to soften up the Scottish public for private company involvement in NHS Scotland. Only indy parties will protect NHS Scotland.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor must give evidence to US cops, demand Scottish Greens Patrick Harvie spoke out after the King said his family were "ready to support" police in their inquiries.

Andrew's behaviour clearly needs criminal investigation.

But we should be equally outraged at the way the Monarchy bankrolled and protected him - including paying ยฃ12 million to settle a sexual assault case.
