Kemi Badenoch on Today defending the neo-Nazi council candidate by saying that it is right to give those who have previously been radicalised a chance. Badenoch on Shamima Begum, whom was groomed by Islamic State when a child, "Citizenship is a privilege, she forfeited it." 🤔
I wrote about my years filming with ex-wino turned chessmaster John Healy, exploring his bitter exile from the British literary world despite writing a runaway bestseller: www.rte.ie/culture/2026...

What does anyone expect from unionist papers. Can't have those uppity Jocks looking good at anything or they might really believe they can go it alone and what would we do without all their assets then?
I see today’s ‘let’s trash Scotland’ papers are once again having a go at the exam results. Despite children working hard with a continued rise in the results the media shows their hatred for the SNP Gov goes above any congratulations for our kids hard work. Not any congratulations. Shame on them!
I think it's great. Badenoch is ensuring that the Tories remain unelectable for the forseeable future! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Scotland and Screamadelica: Co-option of culture at the Closing Ceremony
Sunday night marked the end of the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games in the Hydro, with a sparkly, hyper-saturated display of national pride. Unicorns, traffic cones, bagpipes and a range of talent f…

To be fair, “Councillors and council elections don’t matter” are a load-bearing part of the “Kemi Badenoch is doing well and the Conservative party’s prospects under her are looking good” thesis.
It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.
Antifa (short for "anti-fascist") is not an organized political group. It's a decentralized movement without a clear structure, hierarchy or leader, according to a 2020 Congressional Research Service. Thank goodness most of our citizens are anti-fascist.

Little clot, we believe in you. Go now, be gloriously free.
I think we're generally much too chill about how mainstream and normal this weird, obsessive anti-Irish stuff is in the UK. #speirgorm
Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. No matter what happens, it can’t be forgotten.
I won't vote for anyone who takes AIPAC/Israeli money.....
The SNP has won five Scottish elections in a row. Scotland wants Independence. Scotland deserves an Independence Referendum.

House GOP said Spanish territory 'belongs' to Morocco. Two weeks later, tens of thousands of Moroccan migrants stormed the border.
House GOP Backed Moroccan Claim to Spanish Territories Two Weeks Before Ceuta Migrant Crisis

Reminder that Rupert Lowe got his guns confiscated last year after allegedly threatening to shoot Zia Yusuf (you don't gotta hand it to Rupert Lowe, but fair play), and this was the trigger discipline on display when he was handing them over.
This is bad even for Rupert Lowe. Because of our gun laws we don’t have active shooter drills in schools and children don’t have to go to their friend’s funerals. MAGA ideology is utter poison Restore Britain leader describes Dunblane tragedy as 'one murder' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
in fairness there's a lot of binface voters trying to get over.
This Clacton resident has some bad news folks: "my mate saw them get out of their boats....walk across the beach...into town...straight into the benefits office and after that, they then registered to vote. They all had 'vote binface' badges on."
The shooter at the In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho that killed 3 people and injured 2 people is a Republican, white male. Shocked.
