Correct.

Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

The nub of it.

It’s about power, dressed up as the greater good.

Which is why the UK both desperately needs electoral reform and is unlikely to get it.

Where can I get that?

England, not UK. Scottish education is devolved. Sick of being lumped in with the crap that England creates! #ScottishIndependence

I’m married to a lovely Scottish man ☺️ when I first moved to Glasgow and started working here and getting to know folk I thought to myself, gosh, Wayne is a popular name for children here! Hahah. All I heard was my Wayne this, my Wayne that! 🤣🤣🤣

MIKE SCOTT ‘Scotland should be independent for basic democratic reasons. Scotland regularly votes left of centre but it gets what England votes for. It voted to stay in the EU but gets Brexit because England voted for it, it’s simply undemocratic!’

🚨NEW: 19 UK & EU industry bodies have joined forces to call for a mutual recognition agreement on conformity assessment.

Sounds technical - but CRUCIALLY this is a practical, achievable measure to reduce unnecessary barriers to UK-EU trade. Proposed by @uktradebusiness.bsky.social in 2023!

Trump has no idea what he has unleashed There is no school of foreign policy realism or trade mercantilism that could explain the US president’s actions

“A trillion comments have been wasted accusing the wrong people of Trump derangement syndrome. The real TDS afflicts those who keep seeing a rational actor, or an economic chess game, where none exists.” Me on Trump’s wrecking ball. www.ft.com/content/9f51...

How chess champion Stephanie Pitcher became Utah’s most successful Democratic lawmaker Sen. Stephanie Pitcher, a chess champion, passed more bills than any other Democrat — and all but four Republicans — in the Utah Legislature this year.

This year, Stephanie Pitcher passed 14 bills, more than any other Democrat in the Legislature. It was a remarkably successful run for a minority party member, which she attributes to her first-hand experience as a prosecutor and defense attorney and her openness to working across the aisle.

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made.

That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country.

Manager at Hinkley Point C accepted a quad bike as a bribe, tribunal hears Ashley Daniels accused of giving more work to engineering firm after gifts that also included £2,000 boxing tickets

Hinkley Point C manager accepted bribes, £11,000 quad bike and £2,000 tickets to a boxing event to funnel contracts to a UK engineering firm.

Politicians have been doing this for years - donations, consultancies, gifts

Must cleanse politics. Criminalise receiving/giving of political donations.

👇🏻

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?"

This is our moment. This is our time.

We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

Health secretary keeps taking donations linked to private health | Good Law Project Wes Streeting has bagged another £58,000 from sources connected to the private health sector since taking over at the health department. But what do his backers expect in return?

A complete conflict of interests. This should be illegal!
The NHS is unsafe in Labour's hands.

I would do anything for growth (but I won't do that).

Labour continues to put the party interest before the national interest.

Blair MacDougall, head spokesman of Project Fear 2014, fully backs these welfare cuts. Anyone feel absolutely conned?

PM: I'll only sign US tariffs deal if it suits UK The UK hopes to limit the impact of President Trump's tariffs in an economic agreement with the US.

Starmer: I'll only sign US tariffs deal if it suits UK.

It will be a terrible deal. NHS will vanish. Expensive branded drugs instead of generic drugs. Hormone injected beef, chlorinated chicken, becoming the 51st state.

Far better to join the EU.

Poster bearing the headline "The 2nd great British energy heist", with a link and qr link to a YouTube video detailing how Scotland's renewable energy is being stolen for profit by the Westminster UK state.

Scotland is undergoing its second great energy heist by the Westminster elite and, as with the oil boom, getting very little benefit from it. Watch the video. Be angry. This poster can be downloaded for printing and sharing from indyposterboy.scot/a5-flyers/

Yes it was.

But we have kept a light on here and we will be back

We are Europeans
