While @nicolasturgeon.bsky.social stood at that podium, EVERY DAY to try and alleviate all our fears, the UK govt partied and were snout-deep in PPE VIP contracts & destroyed the lives of those in care homes etc 😡 THANK YOU Nicola for your compassion & leadership during these times. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

Thou shalt not threaten thy citizens with execution because they’re calling you President Pedo Piggy.

Funny how a rise in Independence minded folk has coincided with Russians off the coast of Scotland stories.

The Epstein stuff was on the radio and I was wondering how many other super rich people there were holding law breaking/people abusing parties there were and for some reason that off the record party Boris Johnson went to in Italy without his security detail came to mind.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

ABC’S MARY BRUCE: “Why wait for Congress? Why not just release the files?” TRUMP: “It’s not the question, it’s your attitude. I think you’re a terrible reporter.” (TRANSLATION: She’s asking the right questions and he can’t handle it)

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

Italy investigates claims of tourists paying to shoot civilians in Bosnia in 1990s If true, this is one of the lowest levels I have heard of. The report on the 10 o’clock news said it was not just Italians but others too

Do they have to remove him from being president to put him in jail or is there any circumstance where he could be tried and put in jail without having to impeach or wait till he is done?

Breaking: King Charles has told Donald Trump to vacate the White House. #Epstein

Perhaps the BBC should wait a bit before settling with Trump. #Epstein

I'm old enough to remember when the proponents for TMX being built, saying it would create long term good paying jobs. How is that going? Since May 2024 there have been THOUSANDS of jobs lost in Alberta oil/gas. However, RECORD profits for oil/gas. SO you want another pipeline huh?

The Epstein files released today did not come from the DOJ's Epstein Files. They came from Epstein's estate. Pam Bondi is still protecting Trump at all costs. Today's release by Democrats was aimed at undermining her efforts. And to make it harder for Donald to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell.

Scotland - the only part of the UK where BBC bias is not a resigning matter: talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/10/03/a...

Can you remember the resignations from the BBC in 2014 when they told lies about the YES Campaign. No! Neither can I

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

Which one is more English?

Westminster’s called the shots for too long... but Scotland’s been watching. They said staying in the UK kept us in the EU. They said energy would be cheaper. They said we were a union of equals. Enough talk. It’s time to banish Westminster.

🔴‘The SNP Isn’t a Threat to the Security of Any Nation I Want to Be Part Of’ Labour’s attempts to brand the Scottish National Party a threat to the UK’s national security is a drastic escalation of Labour’s anti-independence rhetoric, argues @adamramsay.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/11/06/t...

Tony Blair and Gordon Brown opened the London floodgates to Russian Oligarchs.... Anyway...

Scotland: No, not a national security threat. • SNP: No, it’s a legitimate democratic party advocating constitutional change. • At most: It represents a constitutional or political challenge to the unity of the UK — not a security one.

UK security agencies typically reserve “national security threat” classifications for: • Terrorism (domestic or international) • Espionage • Cyberattacks • Violent extremism • State or non-state hostile activities The SNP fits none if these categories

The SNP’s independence agenda challenges the political unity of the UK, but not its security or sovereignty in the sense used by intelligence or defense agencies. Seeking independence via public vote is a legitimate democratic exercise, not subversion. The SNP fits none of those categories.

The tragedy is Andrew losing his title and you feel badly for the royal family? No, Mr. President. The tragedy is the over a thousand victims of sexual abuse. Pass Rep. Thomas Massie & my bill to release the Epstein files.

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community. Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.

A striking intervention by Rear Admiral Chris Parry, reported in The Irish Times, has reignited debate over Ireland’s neutrality and its place in European security. ukdefencejournal.org.uk/?p=63286

I shared this, a year ago. King Charles is not being asked to 'voluntarily' give up any titles, due to his long association with infamous paedophiles. Aren't you sick of The Royal Family yet?
