England is gaining hope through the Green party. It’s reminiscent of when Scotland gained hope through the Indy movement. By 2013, when voting intent had reached 50%, the establishment was fully mobilised to lie, cheat, and interfere to maintain the status quo under which all but the few suffer.

@remhq.bsky.social @michaelstipe.bsky.social thank you for the music. @jasonnarducy.bsky.social #michaelshannon and band, thanks for bringing your exceptional talents to Glasgow. Joyous memories of the Barrowland Ballroom gig in 1985. PLEASE bring Life’s Rich Pageant to Scotland next year too 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Edinburgh has, for centuries, been a fabulous European Capital city.

BREAKING: Zeteo has released, globally, the film the BBC so controversially refused to air.

"Gaza: Doctors Under Attack" is now available to watch in full at gazadoctors.film and zeteo.com.

Here's the trailer:

You would think BBC Radio Scotland might have been interested in covering tonight’s by-election.

We're launching The Bee magazine today because the UK publishing and writing industries have a bit of a class problem.

In what way? I’m genuinely interested in what way you think women’s rights are being removed by this demonstration?

Oh dear. I was only correcting an incorrect statement which may have been helpful for some readers. It’s an EP, look it up, and don’t be so angry.

Chronic Town was an EP, so although it pre-dates Murmur, Murmur was the debut album. All great tracks.

Great album. Perfect Circle and Pilgrimage shine in a collection of jewels.

Only one type of person profits from volatile markets and it certainly isn’t the working classes who watch their pensions go down the pan.

If it annoys the USA then yes, absolutely. I’d rather see Scotland in Eurovision though.

I think this puts it perfectly.

Just brilliant! So looking forward to the Glasgow gig in August.

Hopefully this is just the start. Wherever I’m able I will seek alternatives to American products. Collectively we can drive change.

A number so small it doesn’t register with them. May as well just get a pat on the back and a thumbs up.

Exactly this.

I hope everyone in the ‘Free World’ joins a global boycott of US products. I recognise that US corporations own most of our tech and media platforms, so that will take time and effort, but everything else is easy. Their trade deficit is huge for good reason and we can all help make it a lot worse.

Wow! If the Libdems were everything she says they are they’d have my vote if I lived in England.

How ironic for Scots that @RachelReevesMP is giving her speech at a German MRI magnet factory when the first practical working MRI system was developed at Aberdeen university but the UK financial sector wouldn't support the plan to build an MRI factory there. @StephenFlynnSNP
