Shameful. A body that's supposed to defend equality and human rights is attempting to enforce segregation. They must fail.

I think, rather than a burning hatred of Gaelic culture specifically, the reason why some campaigners focus on ending the Guha hunt and not all factory farming is that the former is an achievable short-team goal and the latter will take decades of shifting public opinion on meat consumption

really the only issue with 'boots theory' is that it didn't predict the now widespread phenomenon of higher-end brands staying the same price but nosediving in quality

I think people are seeing the mass arrests of people for wearing t-shirts and holding signs in support of Palestine Action and are assuming there's One Weird Trick to force the cops to treat Nazis the same
Mallory Moore@sexabolition.blog · yesterdaywww.thenational.scot/news/2641894... This is great and all, but the police already ignore it when Nazis turn up with Combat 18 flags and combat 18 has been banned since they went on a bombing spree in Muslim Jewish and Gay areas in London.
Kate Andrews is the right’s answer to Owen Jones, in the sense that neither seem to have aged a day the entire time they’ve been in the public eye

as we saw with Charlie Kirk it’s extremely notable that no fans of Rod Liddle include any of their favourite quotes from him in their tributes
"losing *more* votes to the Greens" is the absolutely key phrase here: Sturgeon does actually get it! The wing currently in the ascendence in the SNP are all absolutely convinced that the end of the BHA saved them, as opposed to SNP polling remaining flat from before collapsing it until this year
The National@scotnational.bsky.social · 2d agoNicola Sturgeon has warned John Swinney that the SNP risks losing more votes to the Scottish Greens under the party’s current policy direction 👇
Nicola Sturgeon brought the Greens into government in large part to balance out the more reactionary tendency within the SNP, and I think she was probably surprised by how much of her party sided with the reactionaries when it came down to it

When someone is described as "often controversial, never boring" in 2026 it just means: full nazi but also part of the establishment.
this becomes less inexplicable when you consider that the Marra camp will know it’s a bad look to not even have a leadership contest but absolutely do not want that contest to be against Monica Lennon

I don’t even really think they want to win at this point
RDCK98@comradekenobi.bsky.social · 3d agoReading this, and thinking about the 2026 election where activists boycotted campaigning for Scottish Labour and LGBT+ voters held with SNP on the constituency and Greens on the list, wondering what on earth the theory of victory is from left-wing transphobes www.heraldscotland.com/news/2642848...
Didn’t realise Nicola Sturgeon was speaking at the Belfast arts festival that kicked those transphobes out, that’ll drive them even more insane
On the one hand I do think that the UK’s structural problems are only worsening and Andy Burnham (and the Labour Party in general) do not have any meaningful solutions to that, but on the other I think Starmer *was* uniquely shit and we shouldn’t expect Burnham to become as unpopular as quickly
If I post an album on Instagram that contains photos of a demo and counter-demo, would that mean I was endorsing everyone I took a photo of? Would anyone I tagged in any of the photos be assumed to be supporting everyone else who was photographed, including their placards, etc?
Euan@euan.bsky.social · 7d agosince when has sharing an album full of pictures from an event meant you personally endorse everyone in the album and any text or symbols they might be carrying or wearing, let alone being potentially prosecuted for that supposed endorsement
it's ridiculous if the t-shirt itself is a crime, but it's perhaps even more absurd that anyone entertained the notion that sharing a photo album that contained a photo of a man wearing the t-shirt could possibly be a crime
Lizzie Dearden@lizziedearden.bsky.social · last wk.The Metropolitan Police have announced they're taking no further action against Zack Polanski over the Nigel Farage guillotine t-shirt Instagram post, although the man who wore it has been referred to Avon and Somerset Police Key points from their statement 🧵

Have just been reminded of those “Kill The Bill” protests in the early 2020s against the Tories’ crackdowns on public protest, which included commentators on social media pretending to be terrified that the name really meant “murder police officers”. People saying that stuff under their own names.
