BLUE PASSPORTS!

It’s been 39 days since the Epstein files were supposed to be released.

Take for example the Scottish Child payment acknowledged as a "game changer" by poverty charities, the UK (England) Govt refuses to even look at it, despite praise from places such as the FT www.ft.com/content/cf41... www.nesta.org.uk/blog/why-are...

The issues might "annoy" you, but aren`t meant to, if two nations societies have different fundamental values, England increasingly hard right values and Scotland increasingly more left Scandinavian values, that difference should be respected, especially if one is producing better social outcomes.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Venezuelans are circumventing the government’s expanded crackdown on dissent by speaking in code, not mentioning political leaders, constantly deleting content from their phones and refusing to express opinions in WhatsApp groups.

Nigel Farage is in Dubai right now asking billionaires there to fund Reform. These are the people he is selling the UK off to. Foreign billionaires. He loves immigrants so long as they are rich.

Wonder what the anti-vaccine conspiracy nut jobs will tell their children when they're older if, god forbid, they get measles as a young child and it affects their everyday lives when they grow older & to be told, if their parents got them a simple vaccine their life would have been very different.

I’d say “call an ambulance” but it’s Anne Widdecombe. So I wouldn’t. Obviously. Beautifully done 👏🏻 @marina-purkiss.bsky.social

A face only a mother would love......

Why do they even have people like her on their shows? Why even allow them airtime? They are irrelevant and it needs to stay that way.

💛 #BothVotesSNP is the best way for voters in Scotland to get rid of Keir Starmer, elect an @snp.org government that will stand up for Scotland and prioritise the cost of living and NHS - and secure a fresh start with independence.

And it's only 300 years - not an aged "union of equals". We've more history and experience of being independent.

www.thecanary.co/skwawkbox/20... Hunger striker says 'if David Lammy wishes to see me dead, if Keir Starmer wishes to see me dead, they can come and do it themselves'

Exactly what we were saying. If they lie so brazenly when they know there is evidence that proves the truth AND when they know we know the truth, imagine how they lie when there is no such objective, independent evidence.

Wow. The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.

He's now wearing one glove to hide his rotting hand.

Well, he's identifiable at least.

In case you're wondering how it's been so blinkin' easy, for Nigel Farage to pull the wool over the eyes of the Dubai dafties and the English Eejits. They're stupid, that's why.

I've loved #EstéeLauder moisturisers for years Today, I phoned to say I would not buy their products again because Lauder supports Trump's campaign of hatred, violence, racism, and violating Greenland. I was emphatically assured my comments would be passed on. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Reform triumphalism abt their poll support claiming this is the greatest political realignment since 1900 needs qualified. Reform support has averaged 30%. In Dec 1981 the Lib-SDP Alliance hit 50.5% in a Gallup poll: 27% ahead of Lab. They polled 26% in the 1983 election. Lets get some perspective.

‘1.2 million Russian troops and close to 600,000 Ukrainian troops had been killed or wounded or were missing.’ Only Europe can stop this, by backing Ukraine to the hilt. Putin will never do a peace deal.

www.thenational.scot/news/2580004... A petition had been lodged by former British diplomat @craigmurrayorg.bsky.social in October requesting a review of the decision by the UK Government.

Was very disappointed to see your report give time to easily debunked smears runs by the ambulance chasing ghouls of Labour in Scotland and their cohorts at Pacific Quay and elsewhere.

Here's what you could've gone with...

Yes. Especially on Ch4 unless they can find a Scottish Government bad story then it's the fecking Can Can & all systems go. Stopped watching 4 aboot 2 years ago. Half expect C4 to dub John Swinney's voice into a cockney accent.

Why not use a picture of the SNP, rather than Sarwar: the chosen one? Does the SNP have a near total media blackout in place, reminiscent of the Gerry Adams years?

Snp 1 Sottish greens 2 At Holyrood 26 Then #ScottishIndependence and Scottish Greens all the way

Can Reform win by aping Trump despite ICE assassinations, DOGE etc? Can Palestine Action win in Scottish courts? Will Andy Burnham take his rejection like a good little King of the North? Plus Burns Night & the Mamdanifcation of Scots Labour. Listen lesleyriddoch.com/podcast

The "It's Starmer or Chaos" argument falls apart if the UK gets chaos with Starmer. Especially if Plaid Cymru and SNP become dominant in Wales and Scotland while Reform remains strong in England.
