Westminster’s great Scottish energy rip off In news that hasn’t appeared anywhere on BBC Scotland to my shock and surprise, that’s shock and surprise as in “I was shocked and surprised to learn that the Pope believes in god…

My latest blog piece, a look at how UK Government energy policy is financially penalising Scottish energy producers and consumers in order to subsidise the south of England, and contaminating Scotland with radioactive waste.

"Yo espero que Gabriel Rufián, que le reconozco su valentía, tenga más suerte que en 2016 yo mismo, y quienes como yo pensábamos e invocábamos a la unidad de la izquierda para ser un bloque fuerte a la hora de presentar una alternativa en las elecciones"

Robert Lowe’s challenge is real: Do we want a politics of care, or of hate? A commentator here drew my attention last night to a new policy paper from the Restore Britain group that has been launched by former Reform MP Robert Lowe, who now sits as an independent MP for Great...

This is probably one of the most important pieces I have ever written. Robert Lowe MP is proposing the forced expulsion of millions of people from the UK. Full-on fascism is being put before people. We have to decide. Do we want a politics of care, or of hate? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2026/02...

“£235k from Gary Lubner, one of Labour’s biggest donors in the run-up to the last General Election [and] former CEO of Belron, the owner of Autoglass.

“Lord David Sainsbury, the former supermarket chairman, donated £125k and American hedge fund manager William Reeves gifted the organisation £40k.”

Reform UK (AKA The British Union of Fascists) continues to be wall-to-wall on the BBC.

Meanwhile, in Scotland.

Scandal-hit Labour Together raised nearly half a million in donations A THINK tank caught in the centre of a spying scandal was gifted almost half a million pounds in a two-week period, new figures have revealed.

Welcome to Starmer’s “New Britain”.

Labour Together row erupts months after The National’s expose. But why only now? ON my commute to work on the morning of February 6, I spotted what appeared to be a wild story ...

The National. The only newspaper that supports an independent Scotland.

Read the news you’re not getting.

Why should other Welsh taxpayers pay for your health care?

You’re going to end up going round in circles comrade!

Podemos debatir sobre el uso del burka, lo que no haremos es comprar el discurso de VOX, que usa a las mujeres como coartada para sembrar odio.

Su propuesta no defiende la dignidad femenina: es machista, xenófoba y excluyente.

Las mujeres necesitan derechos, libertad y respeto.

Meanwhile, in England.

Even if there were a debate it would be pointless because relentless political and media gaslighting about the “union” means most of the population has been completely brainwashed to believe Scotland is populated by ungrateful subsidy junkies totally dependent on English tax revenues for survival.

Meanwhile, in England.

(The chaos continues.)

69 dumb-fuck reasons for leaving the EU ‘I did it to put everyone else in the shit’

Every now and then, when I want a little break away from the turmoil of *everything* going on in the world right now, I revisit this article which, as the title suggests, provides 69 dumb-fuck reasons people gave when voting Leave during the Brexit Referendum.

Meanwhile, in England.

Much better than a “government” mired in false promises, failure, lies and corruption.

I’m retired and frequently have to take elderly relatives to out-patient appointments at local hospitals. The free parking is hugely welcome although it can sometimes take time to find a space so I allow a little more time for this.

I’m not even sure where our friend is - seems to know very little about what’s actually happening in Scotland. 🤔

Have you just realised that?!

Lo que significa para María Guardiola el feminismo depende del día, la hora o si tiene que pactar con Vox.

Welsh taxpayers.

Simples.

Scottish taxpayers.

Simples.

It’s about deliberate ideological and political choices.

The Scottish Government delivers all of this despite its budget being largely determined by the %age of Scottish tax revenues the UK Treasury deigns to reimburse, and limited economic powers of its own.

If we can do it, why can’t England?

Correct.
