Hey @zackpolanski.bsky.social I hear you are talking to Laura Kuenssberg tomorrow morning?

Can you ask her why this story is being exposed by a 3-week-old-old outlet @thenerve.news & not the BBC?? πŸ€”

Well it's not every day that you get to stand on the site of a brand new Observatory! This is Clatteringshaws loch, in the Galloway Forest #DarkSky Park, home of the 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Scottish Dark Sky Observatory. Construction starts soon and like a phoenix SDSO will rise from the ashes! Re-opening mid-2027. πŸ₯³πŸ”­πŸ§ͺ

What a breath of fresh air the President of #Finland is - more articulate and straight to the point than any of our lot. Such a great, well educated and egalitarian country. #R4Today.

Should the Police recommendation be overturned we need to see all these politicians, and their camp followers, out on the streets assisting the police in defending their own decision let this go ahead.

These hedgehogs live under our back hedge. It's good to have them around in these days of falling numbers.

This is not a ban on Jewish people attending a football match. This is a ban on these particular Maccabi Tel Aviv travelling fans attending a football match.
Had this been any other circumstances it would be a non story.

🚨BREAKING -- Huda Ammori has been granted the right to appeal the proscription of Palestine Action via judicial review.

nation.cymru/news/reform-... I wonder what the voters of Caerphilly expect Farage to do for them. They were duped by Farage already and got Brexit. They have to decide whether handing over the Senedd Cymru to English nationalists is a good idea before it's too late.

Anti-Muslim hate crimes in the UK have reached a record high of 4,478 incidents, marking a 19% increase from the previous year. Experts attribute this surge to escalating political rhetoric and media narratives.

I've NEVER been a Member of a Political Party, until today.

I saw the incredible Polls, suggesting that Nigel Farage will landslide a Westminster General Election. Farage as PM.

SNP is the ONLY solution to Scottish Independence.

Only a fool in Scotland now doesn't want this.

I've Joined the SNP.

The voting system was designed (rigged) precisely to avoid this very thing happening. Alex Salmond did it and everything changed. We need it to happen again and Scotland can rejoin the world.
