@moatstv.bsky.social Hi George listening to your podcast today and was interested in your point on sovereignty, you said how important it was & that the UK in Europe had no sovereignty & that was a bad thing. As a Scot like yourself I was wondering why then do you now want Scotland to rejoin the EU?
This is the difficulty. It was reported Mandelson had failed security vetting as long ago as September 2025
Jeez. I know government ministers sometimes dance around questions but this is crazy
@moatstv.bsky.social George why are you number two on the Glasgow regional list for the Scottish Parliament Election? Your party will still get my vote but would have liked to see you as No 1.
Pope Leo criticises President Trump's illegal attack on Iran, "Unjust war that continues to escalate that is not solving anything" "It's only provoking more hatred in the world" "Attacks on civilian infrastructure is against international law"
In her Easter address, President Trump's spiritual advisor Paula White compares Trump to Jesus, "You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused" "It's a familiar pattern that Jesus showed us" "But it didn't end there for Jesus and it won't end there for you"
Lawrence O’Donnell made a great point. Nixon won his 1972 re-election in a landslide, winning 49 states. In 1974 he resigned. By 1976, you couldn’t find anyone who would admit to supporting him. Looking forward to history repeating itself.

💥 No president in the modern era has ordered more military strikes against as many different countries as Donald Trump. He's attacked 7 nations, three of which had never been targeted by U.S. military strikes. He authorized more individual air strikes in 2025 than Biden did in four years.
Trump campaign peace promises loom large over wartime presidency
The "anti-war" candidate has bombed seven countries and launched a new regime-change war in Iran.

“I’m old enough to remember the 1989 helicopter crash with Trumps casino execs aboard headed out to testify in a case related to Trump. Trump backed out of the flight at the last minute stating that “he was too busy” to leave at the time. The pilot,co-pilot and 3 execs died that day.”

This is a superb, fact-filled FT article on China’s trading profile, its $1 trillion trade surplus, the fact it makes almost 1/3rd of the world’s manufactured goods…more than the US, Japan, Germany and South Korea combined. ig.ft.com/china-trade-...
How China’s record trade surplus helped spark Trump’s tariff war
Beijing’s domination of global trade has led to a schism between the world’s two largest economies — and left many others worried about their industries being crushed by China’s export machine
