THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

American B-1 bombers are landing on British soil before flying off to bomb Iran, yet Keir Starmer gaslights the nation by claiming the UK isn’t at war.

These aircraft are dropping 2,000lb bombs on schools, hospitals and homes in Iran, where the death toll has already surpassed 1,300.

Farage is a shirker, and has been in every elected role. As an MEP he skived off the Fisheries meetings when he should have been representing the UK, and only showed up in the EP for the chance of a soundbite on camera. He *doesn't want* public office - just the grift that goes with it.

Hope it works out. Windows is nuts though. One of the few situations where trying the same thing over and over sometimes works.

Trump β€” "Starmer is no Churchill". Well, except in the racist war criminal sense Trump mocked Keir Starmer as β€œno Churchill” β€” well he is if you look at Churchill’s colonial record and Starmer’s stance on Gaza

New Finland film screenings in Ullapool, Largs, Prestwick & Dumfries - plus Edin date shifted. This week Perth, Nairn & Inverness. First big screening at Tayport filled to capacity. A big relief - few have visited so I worried folk wouldn't be able to relate. All details at lesleyriddoch.com/events

Wonder why #Ireland just can't deny them landing clearance at SNN/DUB etc? Or overfly clearance through their airspace?

Same could be said for #Scottish airports - especially #Prestwick

Been a decades old issue - per the attachment

With Catherine Connolly in place, the hope is for action

Trump is no friend of Scotland.

He has threatened our neighbours, lied about our country, and armed war criminals.

The US military shouldn't be allowed to use publicly owned infrastructure in Scotland, such as Prestwick Airport. It's time to kick them out.

Donald Trump's US Air Force makes 550 landings at Scottish airport in 10 months The Scottish Greens say "Trump's troops" should be kicked out of the country amid concerns over the US president's aggressive military moves.

US military has landed at Prestwick more than 550 times, almost every single day, since 1 April 2025.

That is not the occasional stop-off, that is sustained military use of publicly-owned Scottish infrastructure.

It’s time for Parliament to stand up to Trump.

NEW: US military flights from Prestwick Airport nearly doubled in January when Donald Trump's forces were accused of violating Scottish law, figures show.

The Greens have said the Scottish Government must use the powers it has to "take a stand"

American planes land at publicly owned Prestwick Airport every day, and the Americans broke Scots law extracting crew of the tanker who had been brought to Scotland.

Stand up to Trump! ✊🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

This Wednesday, we’re debating a motion to evict US forces from Prestwick and ban them from publicly-owned airports like Wick.

Scotland’s infrastructure shouldn’t be a staging ground for Trump's agenda.

Take action:

❌Ban Trump’s army from our airports ❌

Send the President a message that Scotland will not be complicit in threats to our friends and neighbours.

Prestwick Airport is not a private military base. We must act to ensure our infrastructure is not used to boost Trump or his agenda!

Under Trump the US military has shown contempt for both Scottish law and international law.

The Scottish Government should immediately evict US military operations from Prestwick Airport and halt their access to all other Scottish Government-owned airports. πŸ‘‡
