I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itโ€™s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Political graphic with a dark, distressed background. The image shows Donald Trump twice, once smirking and once angrily pointing, alongside UK symbols including Big Ben and the Union Jack, with a NATO emblem in the centre. In the foreground, two distressed British civilians look on. Military imagery appears behind them, including soldiers and a helicopter in flames. Overlaid white text reads:

โ€œYou backed Donald Trump when he mocked allies, trashed institutions, and treated international cooperation as a joke. You waved it away as blunt honesty. You said people were too sensitive. You said this was just how he talked. Now he turns that same contempt on NATO and questions UK contributions in Afghanistan, and suddenly you are outraged. Suddenly words matter. Suddenly responsibility matters. Suddenly the damage is real. Nothing has changed about him. What has changed is who he is aiming at. If you were fine with him attacking others, you do not get to act shocked when he attacks you.โ€

We weren't going to comment on Trump's latest mutterings about ISAF's contributions in Afghanistan. Mainly because he's a clown and oxygen thief.

We do have a comment however aimed out our fellow veterans and citizens who have vocally supported Trump in the past and are now outraged at his comments

World would be a โ€˜better placeโ€™ if US took over Greenland, says Nigel Farage Reform leader says he agrees โ€˜strategicallyโ€™ with Trump but adds that views of Greenlanders must be respected

Farage has the unbelievable nerve to talk at Davos about Britainโ€™s โ€œmoral declineโ€.

This repulsive piece of shit IS Britainโ€™s moral decline. Heโ€™s betrayed our country for self-interest, prejudice and greed. Shame on everyone whoโ€™s allowed that.

Reform UK announced a Scottish Leader whoโ€™s never been elected by anyone for anything and a new MP who wonโ€™t call a by-election.

Thatโ€™s Reform UK democracy.

Court throws out Biffa's ยฃ50m claim over failed bottle return scheme Waste firm Biffa claimed it invested heavily after being given assurances about the recycling scheme only to see it collapse a year later.

The bottle scheme didnโ€™t fail, it was sabotaged. By a UKGov not ready to establish their scheme (to include glass).
We could have had this up and running but for UKโ€™s insidious Internal Market Act
We need independence from their ill-will and interference

In this Budget, the SNP is expanding the best package of cost of living support anywhere in the UK.

โœ… More wraparound childcare.
โœ… Free breakfast clubs in every primary school.
โœ… More people paying less income tax because they live in Scotland.

Any reasonably educated person knows that Reform would turn the SNHS into a private insurance system where the poor just die as they can't afford it but don't be fooled by Baillie and Labour, Streeting is on record as saying much the same thing, vote for independence to protect our SNHS.
