Migrant from the hellhole Elmo created. New Scot. Socialist. Husband. Jambo. Radicalised by the sociopathy of politicians (especially during Covid). A better way is possible.

Something that because of the Bain Principle, Labour have refused to EVER do with the SNP under ANY circumstances... but for Frog Fuckface and Reform? Aye, go on then.

What in the actual living FUCK are Labour for?!

Itโ€™s telling that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is rarely called โ€œthe Kingโ€™s brotherโ€ in news stories, while Peter Murrell is always โ€œNicola Sturgeonโ€™s husbandโ€.

From now on, it has to be nothing other than: โ€œKing Charlesโ€™s brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsorโ€.

Whatโ€™s good for the gooseโ€ฆ ๐Ÿชฟ

remember this when the media tries to replace starmer with streeting.

streeting wants to 'protect' our relationship with the raving lunatic that is donald trump.

It's been a tool of imperial oppression and an utter joke to decent people for FAR longer than you're letting on.

Imagine having been a west coast boy like me. ๐Ÿ˜„ It has paid off though. Woke up at about quarter to five to watch Harry Cochrane score his only Hearts goal against Celtic and us run them off the park, ending their unbeaten run back whenever that was.

Plenty more time for celebratory drinking after.

While the Mainstream Media gives even more Airtime to Nigel Farage and his Overseas Backers, this is the ACTUAL story, for realists, in Scotland.

Only a fool wants an English Nationalist running Scotland.

They want to live in an Equitable Country.

Singapore only gained Independence in 1965.

It's the same Population as Scotland.

It's one of the Richest Countries in the world.

Please don't fold under the pressure of right wing agitation on racism the way you did with LGBT issues.

Paul Doyle who injured more than 100 people in Liverpool has pleaded Guilty to 9 charges of Causing Grievous Bodily Harm and 17 charges of Attempting to Cause Grievous Bodily Harm.

He is a MAGA and Andrew Tate supporter.

Why do we never hear about the dangers of the Far Right?

Tackling child poverty is my driving mission - and thanks to our actions, Scotland is the only part of the UK where child poverty is falling.

Glad that Labour was finally shamed into doing the right thing.

Anyone in Scotland who is thinking of voting Labour, is completely bonkers.

As they've gone beyond Tory and they're now mimicking Reform UK, Scottish Independence isn't just sensible, it's ESSENTIAL!

There's more to the world out there than just the US and the propaganda we're bombarded with from birth, Sheila. Stop supporting a genocidal apartheid state.

Thanks but America was never great. It has always been a genocidal, colonialist project by and for the rich on stolen land. Its fall will be the best thing to happen in the history of humanity.

30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel.

โ€˜The fear is realโ€™: how Midlands attacks have changed Sikh womenโ€™s daily lives Many women are afraid to go out, particularly on their own, after religiously aggravated rapes and assaults

A white schoolgirl is inappropriately approached by a migrant in Epping & we have 2 weeks of national meltdown.

2 Sikh women are raped in Birmingham & 2 taxi drivers assaulted & not a peep.

Where are Farage, Jenrick, Starmer & everyone else now eh ?

Twats !

I remember watching the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony with a Czech pal.

His comment summed it up perfectly "Pete, watching this makes me proud to be British".

Four years later he left the UK due to Brexit.

I'm interested to hear what you think of Desmond's statement. Is it 100% deflection or is there some truth and was Rodgers maybe allowing whatever frustrations he had to interfere with his job performance (and his honesty in interviews)?

Yeah, that's what I meant with my "boys will be boys" excuse being sort of culturally engrained. It takes all that other stuff and tells boys/men that things aren't their fault, they're just this way, and it's really insidious the way that attitude seeps into a male consciousness/psyche.

...difference means a higher likelihood of being targeted in your youth, your adulthood, or both. That theory lends itself to the phenomenon you've seen: Damaged men who at their core may be good hearted, but they haven't worked out how to put that core into practice, so they do damage of their own.

I feel like part of full accountability is being able to pretty openly talk about mistakes you made. And yes, I have reached out and apologised, the more obvious bit, and yet one which seems to elude so many men.

I think to grow up in the US and be leftist it's likely you're "different" and that...

"Nuclear accidents are deadly and cleanup and disposal are fraught with problems". Fossil fuels directly contribute to several dozen times more mortality and morbidity via both the process of obtaining them, and their environmental impact when used.
