We're investigating Scotland's energy scandal as the McCrone Report turns 51
It's 51 years since the McCrone Report detailed Scotland's incredible oil wealthΒ β yet Scotland has some of the highest energy bills in Europe ...
π¨51 years ago a UK Government memo detailed the astonishing energy wealth of Scotland. It was deliberately kept secret for decades.

Are all those who have been quietly acquiescing to the multi-billion pound Biden-Netanyahu death relationship because - you know - βdemocracyβ, βliberalismβ - going to change after Inauguration?
Will the nexus between ideology and morality make any difference to attempts to stop the mass killing?

Christ is Still in the Rubble: A Sermon by the Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac
It has been 440 days. 440 days of constant bombing. Nonstop. 440 days of starvation. On top of 17 years of siege and imprisonment. Tens of thousands killed. Injured. Forever disabled. Imprisoned.
It is still hell.
The weapons are still traded
The piles of rubble still grow
The bodies still lie unburied
The captives are still captive
The silence is still deafening
The impunity still protected
The little town
Is anything but still
Christ is still in the rubble

Light purple graphic with dark purple geometric shapes surrounding the border. Text in black reads: "Scottish Parliament Motion. That the Parliament understands that the Nobel Committee has awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2024 to Nihon Hidankyo, the Japanese grassroots organisation of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, who are also known as Hibakusha; acknowledges that Hibakusha have worked tirelessly for decades to raise awareness of the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons use; recognises what it sees as the ongoing relevance of their message in a world where, it believes, the threat of nuclear weapons remains a pressing concern; believes that nuclear disarmament is a crucial step towards ensuring global peace and security, and that the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) offers a vital framework for achieving a world free of nuclear weapons, and encourages governments to take concrete steps , Maggie Chapman MSP, 9 December 2024"
We have not learnt our lesson on nuclear weapons.
Despite the horrific consequences, we still live in a world where nuclear warfare is a threat.
My motion below, which celebrates the awarding of the #NobelPrize to survivors of the Hiroshima & Nagasaki bombings.
