Great satire - and a fantastic punch line 👏. Who said you can't make comedy about Trump? www.facebook.com/reel/3968298...

Labour's immigration policy: a losing strategy on every front 👇 This is an area reserved to Westminster. The SNP Scottish Government strongly opposes the Labour policy for obvious reasons (read the thread). The British Government refuses to even consult. Who's on Scotland's side?

The murder of Australian Zomi Frankcom by the Isareli army alongside Englishman James Kirby drew immediate condemnation from the Australian government and even now they're demanding full accountability. But Labour's Foreign Secretary won't even discuss it. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/a...

Someone been busy last night?

Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️ This #TransDayOfVisibility, we celebrate trans people everywhere and reaffirm our commitment to building a world where they can live openly, in safety and with dignity 🩷

If I lived in England it would be such a hard choice to make between Labour and The Greens 😉

Recycling rates in England have stagnated at about 44%. Whilst The Guardian compared this with higher Wales and NI figures, it fails to mention Scotland, where The SNP has achieved 65% recycled for segregated curbside waste. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Paul Nowak from the @tuc.org.uk on how Reform would scrap workers rights. Spot on. Reform are a party for bosses, not workers.

Fair.

There seems to be a certain snobbishness about Polanski rising up from the English establishment. It can be summarised as "he's not a serious politician, not one of us". Unlike Starmer, they mean. Another sign of his success👏. The UK needs modern democracy.

At some point history will properly record the tens of thousands of women and children who have died in Benjamin Netanyahu’s orgy of killing. The stain on Israel is indelible.

Destroy civilian infrastructure to "win". Is Trump trying to copy Israeli tactics now? We all know where that path leads. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

What a shock. They claim to hate each other in England, but offer to work together in Scotland. The London parties are not be trusted. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿|🇪🇺 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘞𝘌 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵, 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 𝘚𝘕𝘗 𝘰𝘯 𝟩 𝘔𝘢𝘺

Interestingly, whilst the UK has agreed to a 25% price hike when buying US drugs for the NHS, the EU has done no such thing. Quite the reverse. The US has pressured the EU to drop ITS prices so the US pays less. It hasn't agreed. Which would Scotland be better off being part of: the EU or the UK?

As our FM made very clear today: Scotland has all the energy, but none of the power.

Great to be at St Fergus Gas Terminal today, hearing from those at the heart of our vital energy industry. Labour policies are hammering energy jobs and people in Scotland are left to pay the price. The SNP is clear: energy powers should be firmly in Scotland’s hands.

Private company takes all the British goverment subsidies and still fails. Leaves large debts having extracted profit to the max. British government steps back in to take on the debts through nationalisation. Only in England. In Scotland industries are just left to wither and die. Like Grangemouth.

I'll take either at this stage. That's one less reason for Scotland to remain part of the UK. It's safer to be part of the EU...

In case you're not used to The Register's oblique headlines (they do have a reputation to maintain) - this is a bad thing...

You have to admit he's got this online thing sussed.

Speaking in Aberdeen today, the Leader of the Opposition at Westminster said “yes, I do think that” when asked if a referendum would follow an SNP majority. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿|🇪🇺 𝘝𝘰𝘵𝘦 𝘚𝘕𝘗 𝘰𝘯 𝟩 𝘔𝘢𝘺 www.scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/news/politic...

On day one of a new SNP government, I will demand powers over energy to be transferred to the Scottish Parliament - so we can cut bills, protect jobs and unlock investment. If Westminster will not bring your bills down, they should get out of the way for a government that will.

Still thought these American billionaires didn't talk much? Behind the scenes they're very much busy looking after each other...

Labour running scared of Farage's Reform. Again. Labour's argument for a cap comes down to "people might not like it if there wasn't one". But there are only so many young people who will actually want to take part, and will be able to find places. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Former chief of London think tank Labour Together, Labour MP Josh Simons, has admitted he is “so sorry” in a scandal over payments it made to spy on journalists. It donated £100,000 to Sarwar. When will he return the dirty cash, or better still give it to charity?

Once again the BBC has decided to be on the wrong side of history and morality. BBC Arabic defended as lone voice in region for giving ‘Israeli perspective’ www.theguardian.com/media/2026/m...

Assault and worse. Israel's armed forces are allowed no restraint when it comes to attacking and killing journalists... CNN journalists in the illegally occupied West Bank and now Lebanese journalists. When will the West exert influence to stop this terrorism? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

The only mainstream journalists speaking truth to power these days are cartoonists

Under the EU's new agreement with Australia... where there's a will, there's a way.

We don't want Farage's Reform UK here.

When I grew up in Scotland, part of a mixed-race family, we watched the National Front march in support of an ethos my family, my community, my country, had fought in WWll. We listened to Enoch Powell spew hatred. It was grim before equality laws. I loathe #ReformUK and their hateful agenda.

Of course what this paper doesn't note is that, thanks to 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗡𝗣, there has been statutory nutritional guidance for school meals in Scotland since 2020 👏. Unlike in England, where junk food is the norm. www.gov.scot/publications... www.theguardian.com/education/20...

"Iran may decide to set up a tolling system for the strait of Hormuz" So, Iran now selling more oil, at the three the price, and may charge for use of the stair of Hormuz. Still not worth it for any civilian killings, but hardly a win for USA/Israel. www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Astounding that there was British Government ministerial-level agreement for Octopus Energy to provide data protection and cyber security software to Mingyang for its turbines - investment in which were vetoed for Scotland "on security grounds". octopus.energy/press/octopu...

Interesting that Mingyang - who's £1.5bn wind investment in Scotland was vetoed by Labour "held extensive discussions with the UK and Scottish governments over the last two years on its plans, as well as holding commercial discussions with Great British Energy" www.offshorewind.biz/2025/10/13/m...

www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic... The DWP dumped a series of figures on Thursday, including the government's annual statistics on incomes and living standards - covering 2024/25. The data showed the number of people living in poverty in the UK has risen by almost half a million. Change? Not likely!

Is it really true that awful Offord actually said "I don’t have any issue with homophobia, I’ve got a lot of gay friends"?

"We have to ensure that the UK energy infrastructure is free from foreign interference" says Labour, whilst simultaneously trumpeting a large investment in wind that is mostly using Chinese technology... so it's only an issue when the investment is in Scotland?

"a blunt and discriminatory response that is not supported by science and violates international human rights law" We really need to find better ways to combat terf beliefs. They have no place in a modern world. www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/m...

Buying off opponents and rewarding friends. Isn't that what the house of lords is for? Oh - and getting mates who are unelectable into government (ask Malcolm Offord and Johnson about that one).

Protect and improve our NHS. Deliver real help with the cost of living. Win the fresh start of independence for Scotland. Vote SNP on May 7th.

Comes to something when Iran keeps popping up as the sensible one.
