it sure is.

"I don't think Reform have got any interest in what goes on around here. They're just a load of multimillionaires from England.

Independence is normal. And if independent countries like Ireland, Denmark and Finland can be wealthier and fairer than the UK, so can Scotland.

Congratulations to the people of Caerphilly!! Rejecting the Black Shirts and a Tory version of a long dead Labour Party! Time for the smaller nations of this unpleasant "union" to take their leave!!

. America, the East Wing Demolition was just the beginning... . . . finally understand what's happening here ! He won't stop !! 💠 😔 💠

Why does the EU tolerate this anti-democratic state? www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

BERNIE: “I worry we are increasingly becoming an oligarchic form of society, where a very small # of people control our economy + have huge influence over both political parties. if there was ever a time to stand up for working families and prevent authoritarianism, this is it.”

This is what passion and ‘knowing what is right’ looks like 👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿

No other country on the Planet has Private Health Insurance like the USA does. Everyone else pays money for guarenteed Healthcare. You pay so they can say, "Nah, our profits are more important." Health Insurance companies shouldn't exist, you need to get rid of them.

We’ll fight the 2026 election on what independence can do for Scotland - building the mandate, the movement and the plan to make it happen. #SNP25

We’ve seen what Westminster chaos brings - it’s time to take control and build a fairer, more hopeful Scotland. The need for independence has never been greater. #SNP25

The General Secretary of Scotland's largest trade union body is absolutely correct. Scotland's future must be decided by Scotland's people. #SNP25

Since 2014, we've been forced to live through the worst of Westminster - Brexit, Boris, Truss, and no change with Labour. Only independence offers a fresh start for Scotland. Read Stephen Flynn's speech here: https://www.snp.org/britain-is-broken-and-the-westminster-way-isnt-working/

Rising bills. Falling living standards. The UK economic model is broken. Independence is the fresh start for Scotland - so we can build a wealthier, fairer nation shaped by the people who live here. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👉 yes.scot/decide

Trump’s presidency has been defined by the decay of public information sources and dismantling of public health institutions. So firing the people who produce the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Report certainly tracks.

The whole reason Democrats are having to push for the Obamacare subsidies now is because Trump & Vance excluded them from their bill earlier this year, because Trump & Vance prioritized tax breaks for the wealthy over health care costs for the poor and middle class.

Around 450 jobs have been lost at the Grangemouth oil refinery due to its closure. The refinery, Scotland's only oil processing facility and the UK's oldest, stopped crude oil operations in April 2025. None of the £200 million pledged by the UK government for Grangemouth has been paid out.

"America is 'going in an authoritarian direction at an accelerated pace', with centralisation and personalisation of power under Trump, attacks on independent institutions, and criminalisation of protests. 'All the US’s checks and balances are collapsing.'” www.bylinesupplement.com/p/the-madnes...

USA Democrats. This: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

In the light of his colleague and Reform's Welsh leader admitting to taking bribes from Russia, is Farage going to be asked about his and his Brexit party MEPs' vote in the EU parliament in 2019 against plans to tackle Russian propaganda? www.theguardian.com/world/2019/o...

Trump's “Big Lie” about the 2020 election remains the worst piece of MAGA disinformation, but not far behind is the claim that Russian links to the 2016 Trump campaign were a hoax. There WAS Russian interference, lots of it. Trump is determined to ruin Comey to keep people from grasping the truth.

Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe. And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

Silencing smart people so dumb people won’t be offended is like unplugging the smoke alarm so the fire won’t feel bad.

I don't think I've ever been more ashamed to be British than I was over the last few days, watching the mango shitgibbon being courted by our government and monarchy like some all-powerful emperor. His crimes, his racism, his hatred of democracy, his support of our enemies... WTF were they thinking?

Russia pushing Europe harder : www.theguardian.com/world/live/2... Very close to the point where Europe needs to respond.

11yrs ago today was one of the worst days of my life, today I still have the hope that independence isn't too far off and I may live to see it. Saor Alba #ScottishIndependence #FreeScotland

Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today it’s on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves. The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. It’s up to us to fight for it.

Labour must choose. It can cling to rules that serve City orthodoxy and neoliberal dogma. Or it can recognise that investing in Britain’s future is not optional: it is the price of keeping our democracy alive. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/09...

Amazing photo of Windsor Castle taken last night

My letter to the Home Secretary on Musk's incitement at Tommy Robinson's far right rally. He is a malign influence on our politics and she has it within her gift to ban him from entry to the UK. She should use it.

BALDWIN: We're left wondering who's advising Kennedy or if his own conspiracy theories are enough to dictate who can get a vaccine. Did you ever brief him? HOURY: No B: You were chief medical officer at CDC. Would you say it's harmful to the public if he's not informed by experts? H: Very much so

We're about to witness the UK Prime Minister and their King sell their arses to a proven rapist, the world's most dangerous, reckless, ignorant and careless individual in one of the most nausea inducing events we are ever likely to bear witness to. Prepare for PEAK EMBARRASSMENT.

So close...yet so far. Salmon running at Buchanty Spout the day.

The financial crash was caused by the rich financial parasites'. They use their money to fund the likes of Farage Johnson using migrants, the poor and disabled as scapegoats. Look what this government is doing www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In the Commons Stephen Flynn, the SNP leader at Westminster, asked Stephen Doughty if Lord Mandelson is retaining the Labour whip in the House of Lords. Doughty ignored the question. What is the point of questions if they are not answered. Westminster is a farce played out by egotistical elitists.

Poland has requested the European Parliament to lift the immunity of far-right MEP Grzegorz Braun after he questioned the existence of gas chambers at Auschwitz
