My latest blog piece, Anas Sarwar's newly found 'tough' stance on Starmer is a fake rebellion from a fake party, agreed with Starmer in an attempt to shore up Labour's crumbling support ahead of the Scottish elections in May weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/01/07/a...

My latest blog piece, Trump's attack on Venezuela shows that the USA is now the superpower of piracy. Scotland needs to reintegrate with Europe in order to protect itself weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/01/03/t...

More spineless cowardice from Keir Starmer as he fails to condemn Trump for trashing international law and unilaterally attacking Venezuela and kidnapping its president. The weakness of post Brexit UK is exposed.

everything about this government from trans rights, to israel, to immigration, to disability, to donald trump is steeped in moral cowardice. starmer, streeting, @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social, @darrenpjones.bsky.social etc -- these ppl are unwilling to stand up to monsters.

The position of the US is that it can kidnap the president of a foreign country and try him in a US court for alleged crimes which were not carried out under US jurisdiction but the US president cannot be tried in a US court for alleged crimes which were carried out under US jurisdiction.

My last blog piece of 2025. The fightback against Anglo-British far right nationalism begins in Scotland with the Holyrood election in May 2026. The lastest opinion poll showing 53% support for independence tells us it's a fight we can win. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/31/m...

🚨 More new polling, as a little Christmas/Hogmanay treat 🚨 Independence support is six points ahead as we go into 2026. Meanwhile, Yes support spikes when people are asked to consider the question in the context of a Reform government. www.thenational.scot/news/2573038...

It's not just the dream of Scottish independence which is at stake in the Scottish elections of May 2026, it's the future of decency, public services, and democracy itself. Reform is the creature of the real enemies of humanity, the billionaires. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/29/i...

There has never been a Scottish politician as useless and nakedly careerist as Michael Shanks, the ashtray of Scottish politics. You'd think a former modern studies teacher would understand what happened to Labour in Scotland in 2015, but apparently not. www.thenational.scot/news/2572183...

A couple of predictions for 2026. By this time next year and for very different reasons, we will have seen the back of both Starmer and Trump. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/27/h...

According to Google translate, Kalaallisut (Greenlandic) for "Quiet,piggy." is Nipaalluni, puulukit That's all that needs to be said.

I don't actually mind Trump falling asleep in public. It's him waking back up that I have a problem with.

Following the disgraceful Reform UK puff piece on BBC Scotland's Och Aye the News this evening, more proof that the BBC is normalising the far right. BBC Scotland prefers Anglo-British fascism to Scottish independence. www.thenational.scot/news/2570913...

BBC Scotland again bigging up Reform UK's council by-election win in West Lothian. It's the second time BBC Scotland has publicised it. No mention of the winning candidate's questionable past or the scandals besetting the party. BBC Scotland NEVER gives this much publicity to SNP or the Greens.

What's in a name? The SNP and nationalism. How the anti-independence parties conflate independentism and nationalism for political advantage weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/15/w...

BBC Reporting Scotland felt it was important to carry a puff piece for Reform UK after it won a council by-election in West Lothian on a mere 22% turnout - which BBC Scotland didn't think was so important to mention. I don't recall them ever giving any other council by-election such coverage.

How to kill off America's tourism industry, which is already reeling under huge drops in the numbers of foreign visitors. There's no way I'd go to America. I'm sure I'm not the only one put off. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Starmer's dangerous stupidity in pandering to the far right means he may prove to become the unwitting midwife of Scottish independence. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/10/t...

If youmust give trains a flag themed livery, it can be done tastefully. The new Great British Railways livery is not it. Why does everything have to be 'Great' British? It smacks of desperation. The livery looks like a GB News studio on wheels. The ScotRail livery is how to do it successfully.

My latest blog piece, Westminster and Scotland's energy - Fool me once... Scotland must not allow Westminster to squander its vast renewable energy resources the way Scotland's oil and gas were squandered by Westminster. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/08/w...

I hope the Scottish media presses Malcolm Offord on the hypocrisy of a man who set up the Vote No Borders campaign announcing he'll be standing for a party which wants to close borders to everyone who's not white and rich. But I won't be holding my breath

Offord's astroturfing Vote No Borders campaign was one of the BBC's blatant attempts to influence the outcome of the 2014 indyref. It was given a full 10 minutes on the 6 o clock news & falsely presented as a grassroots campaign while the BBC ignored genuine grassroots initiatives on the Yes side.

I don't understand why the British media allows a far right party funded by the super rich and stuffed full of former Tories to continue to present itself as "anti-elite". It's such a blatant and risible lie yet Farage is never called out on it.

Millionaire Tory peer defects to "anti-elite" party Reform UK. Offord was behind the Vote No Borders astroturfing campaign during the 2014 indyref which was mysteriously given massive publicity by the "impartial" BBC. www.heraldscotland.com/news/2567804...

Trump getting a "peace prize" from FIFA is the diplomatic equivalent of Elon Musk's lackeys taking him out for an evening of Karaoke and Ketamine after he's been dumped by his latest baby-mamma.

We are a long way beyond "legitimate concerns about illegal immigration" These ghouls are now attacking the right of British born citizens with Asian or African family backgrounds to be in the UK and participate in public life. This is racism pure & simple. www.thenational.scot/news/2567342...

Public school boy, multi-millionaire Farage, & his party backed by the super-rich yet posing as "anti-establishment" are the biggest con trick in British political history, if he gets into No 10 the public anger & fury will eclipse that experienced by that other political con artist Starmer.

My latest blog piece, just days after the Scottish Languages Act comes into force, Farage attacks Glasgow school kids in order to scaremonger about immigration. A new low even by his disgusting standards. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/03/f...

I just saw a woman on Reporting Scotland referring to asylum seekers as 'fighting age men' with the clear implication that asylum seekers are here to conduct a violent invasion. That's not just a racist dog whistle, it's a racist fog horn.

I think it's safe to say that Corbyn's ridiculously self-sabotaging political project won't pose an electoral challenge to Starmer's right wing Labour party, and that's a shame as the left really needs to get its act together. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
