Delighted to see the vindication of Scotland's position here - not just ScotGov, the policy was approved by Parliament as a whole.

It was deliberately wrecked by bully tactics of a right wing UK govt that was willing to sacrifice our environment, our economy and people's jobs, for petty politics.

I am horrified by the murder of a woman in Minneapolis by an ICE agent.

This is what fascism looks like in real time, where a far-right government emboldens a violent death squad to terrorise communities with impunity.

Q2: Having to mask/fit in to NT environments. Family denying diagnosis, expectation to be cured. lack of post diagnostic support where I live. UK government policy towards disabled people. #AutChat

Q1: Had it quite bad through school and work. Had a complete breakdown at age 24. Lucky I had a doctor who believed me. It would take another 4/5 years of failed treatment for depression/anxiety for an autism diagnosis. #AutChat

Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... Over 1.6 million votes against enforced digital ID so far. You may wish to sign, or share, or both. I'm all for sensible consensual checks on basic identity of the sort we already have. Not this.

So the rule of thumb here in Dumfries seems to be that if you find a sandwich shop that becomes your go to sandwich shop. That shop will promptly go out business and shut down.

This BBC statement defames Bobby Vylan.

"Death to the IDF" is not antisemitic.

Declaring this to be so is antisemitic, because it conflates Jewish people as a whole with a genocidal army.

People's fury is directed at heinous crimes, not the ethnicity of the perpetrators.

Text of a Ten-Minute-Rule Bill calling for an inquiry.

Text of a Ten-Minute-Rule Bill calling for an inquiry.

Itโ€™s official. I will be introducing a Bill for an independent public inquiry into the UKโ€™s involvement in Israelโ€™s assault on Gaza.

The government must decide: will it support this inquiry, or will it block our efforts to establish the truth?

Gary Lineker was driven out the BBC because he opposes genocide It's those who oppose genocide who have sacked, silenced, arrested. The world turned on its head

Gary Lineker was forced out of the BBC because he opposed Israelโ€™s genocide.

Not because anyone actually believes heโ€™s antisemitic in the slightest.

I know it, you know it, and whatโ€™s more - the people who drove him out know it.
