Why do I think of disgraced former prime minister Boris Johnson and JCB when I read this story @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Darren Jones keeps saying that Labour Together is a 'separate' organisation from Labour This really doesn't tally with reality at all. LT ran Starmer's leadership campaign; his government is populated by LT people; LT gave £2.5 million to Labour ahead of 2024 general election....

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

Remember how I said that the problem is not Yer Da on Facebook: the problem is elite radicalisation, the political and media class driving themselves and each other insane? Reform is talking here about mass deportation.

Energy and resource rich Scotland is being raided and plundered by uk westminster, who regard Scotland as a mining territory to be fully exploited 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Are you YES yet ? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺😎

Gorton and Denton in Greater Manchester, England. A by-election for a new MP. Vote for hope not hate. #HopeNotHate

There is only one way we will defeat Reform: together. That’s why I’m backing the Greens in the Gorton and Denton by-election. We are a mass movement of all ages, backgrounds and faiths — united in a belief that things can, and will, change.

Holyrood elections - I'm going to vote: 🟨 SNP 1 (constituency) 🟩 Green 2 (list) Why? a) SNP & Green, minor policy differences, both for indy, get my vote b) no way I'll vote Reform/Tory c) and I'll avoid the servile unionism of Labour & LibDem SNP 1 + Green 2 gets us a solid 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿indy majority

performances. You act astonished that the SNP still attracts significant support because you seem to accept at face value the false narrative that the SNP are failing in devolved responsibilities. The SNP are certainly not perfect but

Ah, you sweet summer child who thinks England's media is not a protection racket. Serve its interests or else.

This interview is a prime example of how to interview fascists. 👏👏👏

BBC Scotland-Bad-uk-Good is blaming scotgov for the global shortage of Co-Codamol... anything to discredit SNHS and Holyrood in the run up to HR26 Surprised they haven't blamed SNP for the current weather 🙉🙈🙊🤐

Bookies MSM public in dark, see all Scottish voters. We have been living this for 20 yrs James. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Unionist biased think tank makes up bullshit statement that bbc spews oot intae oor eyes and ears. Tuition Fees in Scotland are safe for the next ren years. Also its an argument fir Independence as the Yoons see Westminster giving Scotland less funding www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

James if Starmer implemented a Home Guard separate from the Territorial Army. Then they the HG would educate their friends and family on a weekly basis, of the Russian "Imminent Threat" @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Then there's 1984. Regards propaganda. If it looks like a duck and smells like a duck then the UK public will not swallow a drama telling us to effectively hate on Russian citizens. It won't work James @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Rwgards Russian Threat to invade UK, Think to the Troubles that the British Army was involved in. I bet they could get oor nations against Russia, because they did it with such ease with Ireland. Watching Say Nothing, what a show. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

🇬🇧 Not only do uk governments not act in the best interests of Scotland, they now actively want Scotland to FAIL, as a way of trying to damage the image that Scots have of the SNP Scottish Government As a result, the Devolution experiment has failed, and independence is needed 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Are you YES yet ?

When Starmer came to power he said he would make the fight against world hunger a major priority. However, in practice he has done the complete and utter opposite. | Peter Sagar
