Good Shabbos

>> I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way.

If a Pakistani Muslim owned X, distributed indecent images of girls on a platform where govt do their PR, where some receive payments for posts, they would have distanced themselves by now. X would be shutdown and Braverman and Farage would be calling for a ban and investigation into Pakistani men.

Do you remember who this is? ⬇️ If you don't, chances are that the foul obscene piece of filth that is #Trump is getting his way... 🤮 Where are the Epstein files?

There were only three TV channels and none of them broadcast anything for adults before noon so as not to distract housewives from their chores (true story). The mornings were taken up with schools programmes, or just test cards. I don't mind folk knowing I'm 62...

For any Edinburgh followers who knew Heather Stirling, please come to her funeral today to share memories and say goodbye to one of the kindest, most generous and loving people to ever walk the earth. RIP m8, I hope there are cats and absolutely tearing jungle in heaven.

Reform UK Councillor John Baker threatened legal action when we said Reform UK’s Kent Council was selling the historic Folkestone Library building in Grace Hill. They had promised to keep it open. Well guess what? They’ve now sold it: www.kentonline.co.uk/folkestone/n...

You'd have to be out of your mind to spend the amount of money they're charging in order to risk being caught up in the horror that is America right now. There isn't going to be a Jesse Owens moment and the puritanical US doesn't 'get' friendly drunks at fitba. Stay at home

Stop falling for the “untrained” narrative.

I might be watching on the tv from the other side of the Atlantic, but I know what I saw. I saw insurrection. And I saw cold blooded murder by an officer of the "law"

I continue to be bitterly disappointed by the National Rifle Association. I'm starting to think they weren't actually serious about containing an out of control over-reaching Government...

Nigel Farage has just said Reform will vote AGAINST lifting the 2 child cap, despite promising to lift it in May. Reform doesn’t care about working class kids - or their families.

Catholic bishops are at it again 🙄 claiming Scotland’s abortion clinic buffer zones are a “free speech” threat. Once again: they're not. No one’s right to free expression includes the right to harass, intimidate or emotionally coerce people accessing healthcare, & pretending otherwise is dishonest.

BBC News at One's main presenter, Nina Warhurst, began her broadcasting career on Russia Today in Moscow. John Suchet's son, Rory Suchet, is a Russia Today Putin propaganda mouthpiece. Two facts you may not be aware of. Russian connections in UK media need closer examination.

Fighter jets left US bases in the UK yesterday as Trump tried to apprehend the fugitive Venezuelan oil tanker. There are 13 American bases in the UK. Given Trump's hostility to Europe, should the UK still be hosting these bases? Should we in any way be supporting his actions in Venezuela?

There’s no free speech in America. It’s laughable to suggest there is. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Book Cover of the Day:

AP reporting that 56 people were killed during the capture/kidnap of Maduro including some Venezuelan military but also civilians. Surely this is why international law must be adhered to? apnews.com/live/us-vene...

Time for our leadership class to wake the fuck up and stop thinking they can grease their way through this shit with flattery and banquets.

Suburbia implementing Trump foreign policy.

For Scotland, remaining part of the Union is not an act of internationalism. If anything, it's the opposite, the submerging of our political culture within a UK political culture that is itself subordinate, humiliated and beyond decency, let alone the rule of law.

80 people murdered by the USA in Venezuela and the western media and politicians refuse to even say a single bad word about the USA's illegal unprovoked invasion kidnap and murder. It is truly unforgivable.
