Nigel Farage has been blasted by the head of a special needs centre after an 'unannounced' campaign visit allegedly created an 'intimidating and overwhelming' atmosphere Read more: www.thenational.scot/news/2...

A great example in Parliament that shows why elected Greens coming from lots of different backgrounds is so valuable. Carla Denyer drawing on her knowledge as a renewable energy engineer while questioning air pollution experts at the Environmental Audit Committee.

People are being urged to rally outside Holyrood next week to coincide with a motion on Scottish independence being voted on

George Street and Harbour candidates confirmed: we've got the Holyrood 6, an Independent, TUSC (maybe? "Independent Trade Unionist and Socialist Candidate") and the new stand in for the deceased Alba Party, Alliance to Liberate Scotland.

The EHRC’S new code has been published. We’ll have a detailed analysis out shortly. The guidance has been toned down from the previous draft – but it still treats trans people like they’re a third sex. This pushes trans people out of public life and violates their human rights.

Texted the manager of my football team to say he's supposed to make me and the other trans guys change separately to the cis guys for our tournament tonight and he's replied with "fuck the ehrc and fuck the fa" so good luck to the government on getting people to enforce this

Nigel Farage was screaming to scrap furlough because it was a waste of money, while he had already claimed £120,000 for himself. He is a fraud every word is a lie.

One in three children in the UK are living in poverty. Labour’s answer? Cheaper rollercoasters.

This is unworkable. Make it absolutely impossible to implement, however you can.

Another reason we need independence.

@labouruk.bsky.social now throw them out of our NHS

This is Frank. He was getting checked out at the vet when he decided the appointment was over. Has things to do and places to be, but doesn't mind if you come along. 13/10 (TT: thatonevettech)

Since the most recent energy crisis, BP's profits have doubled. It's vital that the government show leadership to make sure we're funding renewable energy to keep people's prices down. My conversation today with the Mayor 👇🏼 m.youtube.com/watch?v=fM77...

I am appalled by the conduct and rhetoric of Israeli Cabinet minister Itamar Ben-Gvir in relation to the Global Sumud Flotilla. Scotland stands with the people of Gaza. We need to see more humanitarian aid coming in, and every effort must be made to secure lasting peace.

Reeves choose to boost a Billionaires back pocket over skilled manufacturing jobs at Grangemouth which supported 8% of Scotlands manufacturing base.

PALANTIR is the ultimate surveillance tool to support #fascism 👇👇👇

It's happening!!!! TUESDAY www.thenational.scot/news/2612828...

There is no way the UK will become democratic if people keep voting for anti-democracy parties. The problem isn't Keir Starmer, it's Labour.

If Labour really expects the Greens to do them a big favour by not contesting the Makerfield by election maybe it should promote some policies the Greens are in favour of and attack Reform more than it attacks Zack Polanski.

Elton John accepting an award in Canada & reminding the world, We are not the 51st state❤️🇨🇦 The applause wasn’t just for a music legend. It was for national pride, independence & a country that refuses to be bullied into someone else’s identity! We are #CanadaStrong #SheShed #WeAreNotThe51stState

“gender critical” Transphobes attending the ultra far right fascist rally in central London today. If you are a transphobe you are a fascist; front and centre.

Labour = say one thing, do another.

Labour wouldn't, for a second, consider stepping aside for The Greens under any circumstances. Start from there.

Speaking to The National, Holly Bruce told of how Green MSPs acted as a 'human shield' for Q Manivannan after they were swarmed by journalists as they entered Holyrood

Absolutely disgraceful that this is happening in Scotland

Good evening

Wes Streeting, the member for Palantir North.

Watch as John Swinney tells Westminster to 'catch up' with the reality of devolved nations being led by pro-independence parties

Naz Shah mocks Reform UK's MPs and the far right, "(I am) the first ever Muslim to propose the loyal address in this chamber" "I must assure them, this is not a takeover" "But if seeing black and brown people on TV makes you feel sick, my speech is going to make you vomit"

Scotland just voted for Independence. My new substack. They're free and always will be. The SNP won again, for the fifth time. The media called it a decline story. Here's what actually happened, and why the independence question never went away. open.substack.com/pub/yesinpic...

A country almost a tenth the size of Scotland joining the EU? Surely it's too wee?

As the U.S. starves it of oil, Cuba is pulling off one of the fastest solar revolutions on the planet — with China’s help

The next Labour leader must move decisively away from the status quo to beat Reform. That means giving power and wealth to working class people. It means a democratic revolution, rent controls and public ownership of water. It means someone who isn't Wes Streeting.

BURGUM: When the sun goes down, solar produces zero electricity HUFFMAN: I want to enter into the record this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is unaware of -- it's a battery

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

With Starmer meeting Swinney to discuss 'the constitution' in the next few days, can we hope for another referendum soon?

The SNP will attempt to force a vote on Sir Keir Starmer’s future with an amendment to the King’s Speech, the party has announced

Women’s representation is collapsing: we can’t pretend it isn’t happening This isn’t a “women’s issue”. It’s a democratic one. When half the population is pushed out of decision‑making spaces, every community loses northeastbylines.co.uk/news/politic...

The Good Law Project wants to "tear up this contract between Palantir and the NHS" which risks the security of identifiable patient data

Meanwhile, in Auchterarder ...

You know why those pretty smart people are against it? Because they're smart enough to know that although we could theoretically limit AI to only its useful functions, the world we live in is full of bad actors who would weaponise it.
