I just can’t believe we’re seeing this sort of stuff from a sitting MP Just want to say to British Somalis that you are loved and I’m so, sorry this is happening.
These eejits have (quite cleverly) hiijacked our flag to use it in their thinly based ideology that the whole of Scotland is behind their cause. The Saltire is NOT wholly owned by the Independence movement, But it is wholly owned by the people of Scotland who stand up for social justice & democracy
Since Brexit, there are no official records or statistics of undocumented migrants or asylum seekers, arriving directly in Scotland, via small boats. That's because none have. It's time for Scottish Independence. Another Country (England) is sharing its problems with Scotland.
#BREAKING | The Israeli "Land for All" movement held a press conference today, during which its members called on European countries, the U.S., and Arab countries to impose sanctions, disarm settler militias of their weapons, and deploy a multinational force to protect Palestinian communities >
MOST EXTREME DAY IN EUROPEAN HISTORY Thousands of records have been shattered with the hugest margins ever seen in European history from West to East. There has never been anything like this, not even last June. Wait for many updates later.

Caroline Lucas@carolinelucas.bsky.social · 11h agoI can’t believe we’re still having a debate about whether there’s a trade off between job creation and measures to green the economy. There isn’t. The evidence was clear years ago - a green economy creates far more jobs than the fossil fuel economy it replaces. Come on Labour, catch up …
Blackrock US Billionaire is using 13,000 gallons of water a day to keep his grass green and trees watered in Wessex, England, where drought has been declared. They just think they can use everything up because the rules only apply to you.
An Israeli military probe found that friendly fire may have killed the settler in last month’s deadly clash with West Bank residents, which led to a major escalation by Israeli forces. The IDF only needed an excuse to take over the West Bank, even if it was based on a false narrative.
A sweet little girl with autism brought her stuffed puppy to the dog show. One of the judges noticed her, came over, and asked if she’d like to show her dog too. What followed was pure magic. Original post
1/2 Reform UK weaponising police hate-crime reports mirrors the 2009 Israel Project hasbara playbook perfectly. Nigel Farage isn't seeking justice; he's manufacturing victimhood to distract from far-right scrutiny. Will the public fall for calculated spin? 🧵 #ReformUK
Reform have taken a propaganda lesson from the Israeli playbook
Far-right politicians and candidates in by-elections are suddenly making referrals to the police, such as complaints of 'hate crimes'

The Righteous Rupert Lowe-Life preached about leaches sucking the financial blood out of Britain. This is the same Whoopert Lowe-Life whose company took £100k in furlough cash despite making £7.9 million profit He really didn’t need it but it was free, it was available so he took it like a leach
Being against benjamin Netanyahu does not make one anti Israel .
"None of England’s fire and rescue services are thought to have direct access to firefighting aircraft." It's outrageous. Make the fossil fuel companies pay. www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/country-and-...
Fossil fuel producers should pay for wildfire helicopters, Zack Polanski says
Next week is the anniversary of the start of the Langdale Moor Fire in North Yorkshire, the largest wildfire in the country last year.

Burning fossil fuels makes wildfires more frequent and more intense. Of course those who have made record profits causing the problem should pick up the bill.
Russian propagandists have a convenient habit of showing the devastation caused by Russia while omitting the inconvenient fact that Russia is the one launching the drones and missiles striking Ukrainian civilians.
It’s time to act. And when we do we won’t just avoid the worst effects of climate breakdown - but we will lower bills permanently, help our communities thrive - and give a grounded sense of hope for generations to come.
Victoria Derbyshire@vicderbyshire.bsky.social · 5h agoZack Polanski has called for fossil fuel producers to be made to finance firefighting helicopters, following a series of recent fires across the country He also called on PM Burnham to stop new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea, including the Jackdaw & Rosebank fields off the Scottish coast
It was a pleasure to meet some remarkable care workers in Dundee today and thank them for the vital work they do. Our Displaced Workers Scheme is delivering up to 45,000 extra hours of care every month, ensuring more people in Scotland can get the care they deserve.
Never thought I'd say this but it looks like Labour hate England noo aswell.
