and they say you can't fool some of the people all of the time... Despite reports like this Farage is still going to be the UK's next Prime Minister. Time for Labour to do the right thing and start resisting and correcting rather than cos-playing Reform. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Some of us are old enough to remember this from Badenoch…

🥀Anas Sarwar stood by as Keir Starmer's Labour government voted to keep the two-child benefit cap, abandon WASPI women, and arm the genocide in Gaza. A change of leader won't give Scotland a voice. We need to change the system. We need independence.

The SNP delivering Yet Another infrastructure project .. The SNP lead ScotGov have made a vast difference to connectivity in Scotland #VoteSNP #Holyrood2026 #ScottishIndependence

What if you threw a coup and nobody came?

Something magnificent about Kemi Badenoch's self-confidence, and her claim that the Mandelson affair is entirely down to her asking questions at PMQs. Like a toddler who thinks their plastic steering wheel is controlling the car.

When you are relying on the likes of Jacqui Smith to fight your corner, you're toast.

Double standards by the world community. #palestine #israel

The only political parties opposed to Scottish independence are based in, controlled by, and largely funded from, another country. Vote Scotland. Vote SNP1 and Scottish Greens 2. #Scotland #Holyrood26 #SNP1SGP2 indyposterboy.scot/vote-scotland/

Yesterday, the EU opened the door to the UK joining the Customs Union. Good for the UK's GDP, put more cash in people's pockets. Little downside. For no reason, other than a made-up red line, Starmer has rejected it. Not fit to govern. nation.cymru/news/no-10-s...

Nigel Farage tells GB News that Keir Starmer's decision to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador shows his judgement is "seriously wrong" and he should stand down as Prime Minister. Here's what Farage said when Mandelson was appointed

Under my leadership of the Labour Party, Peter Mandelson had no role, no influence and no part to play, because I do not trust the man and I do not believe the man.

To those Labour voters/supporters/MPs who are now saying that Starmer's judgement was flawed in appointing Mandelson i say this; how bad is YOUR judgement in that you are only NOW seeing how ill-suited Starmer was to be Labour leader in the first place. He lied to become leader FFS.

"Nothing but silence from these other great defenders of justice either Ruth Smeeth, John Mann, Iain McNicol, Lisa Nandy, Jess Phillips, Jon Ashworth, Luciana Berger, Joan Ryan, to name a few. Nothing from Mandelson friend & protege Morgan McSweeney. All keeping their heads down" via Daily Politik

News NOT to be seen on a BBC or Sky website any time soon.

Not that Maxwell should not be locked up but it's a fair point.

If these revelations are true I don't want Mandelson kicked out of the House of Lords. I want him in jail. This is as big a betrayal to the UK as the "Cambridge Five" (Philby, Burgess, Maclain et al). As for the Lords (AND the Royals), it's time they ALL went. Our leaders should be ELECTED.

Screen-captured before he deletes it. Still there this morning suggesting shortage of young admins prepared to work for Labour?

New figures from @publichealthscot.bsky.social show waiting lists continue to fall in Scotland. Waits over 52 weeks reduced 7 months in a row. New outpatient over 52 weeks are down 15.4% compared to Nov 2025, a reduction every month since July 2025 with total waits over 52 weeks down by 40.1%.

Nigel Farage is too scared to debate Zack Polanski.

The SNP have welcomed data showing an increase in the number of annual health checks for people aged 16 and over with learning disabilities

CAN STARMER REDEEM HIMSELF? This is a make or break moment for Starmer. Universally loathed for betraying those who supported him and for being a total incompetent, there is only one life raft and it’s floating away. Unless he changes his tune and gets Brexit undone he’s toast.

Peter Mandelson once again claiming he knew nothing about abuse of children on Epstein Island...

Clearly people being very harsh here in their rapid judgment of former nonce, I mean Prince, Andrew. I mean, he could easily just be practising his first aid techniques. Hello, hello, can you hear me?

"Becoming," the Michelle Obama documentary is on Netflix. I think we should all turn it on today and push it to #1.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: 🐝 Our Parliamentary Candidate for Gorton and Denton is Hannah Spencer! 🪠 Hannah the working-class plumber will unclog the hate and division of Starmer and Farage!

Labour vote is collapsing in Gorton and Denton. Only Greens can take on Reform at this election. We will be announcing our candidate tomorrow morning!

Sorry Billy, but the only 2 parties that have any chance of getting an independent Scotland is SNP & Scottish Greens. You may not like either, but you should swallow your pride, and vote for them to get us over the line. Any other tactic is futile. Let's worry about who rules, after independence.

Matt Goodwin lives nearly 200 miles from Manchester and he hates the place. Do you want someone like that as your MP?

What's the outcome that terrifies Labour most in the Gorton by-election? Reform winning? Nope. It's the Greens they're most worried about. They'd prefer Reform to win, rather than the Greens.

When @theSNP took power 18 years ago, the top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, were ALL in Scotland. Today, The top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, are ALL in England. I’ll take that as a positive governance of Scotland.

Rael Braverman, the husband of failed Tory Home Secretary and new Reform MP Suella Braverman, has joined Reform. Six months after he quit Reform.

UK wind farms cut wholesale power prices in 2025 by 33%. But until retail prices are de-linked from the price of gas, ordinary households won't see any benefit. What's the hold-up? Qui Bono?

Without wind on the grid, prices last year would have been almost 50% higher. eciu.net/media/press-...

NEW: Scotland's Culture Secretary has raised a formal complaint with the BBC, alleging that the broadcaster has different standards for reporting on the Scottish and UK governments 🗣️ 'I view this as such an unacceptable state of affairs'

I know most of us have left X. However many of us have dormant/legacy accounts on there in order to retain usernames etc. I would urge anyone who DOES have an account to hold your nose and go back in and post this image. And if you spot a @teamlabouruk.bsky.social MP on there too, tag them!

A felon who married an immigrant is telling a lot of y’all that the problems in this country all stem from felons and immigrants. But keep buying that stupid red hat that’s made in China.

Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

No interest in working with Keir Starmer. The public know who he is. We're replacing Labour - and taking on Reform. No vested interests. Just standing with the 99%. And that's powerful. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
