John Curtice said after the 2021 Holyrood elections that the launch of the Alba had actually helped the Scottish Greens by making people more aware of the idea of voting for a different pro-independence party on the regional ballot, and i wonder if Your Party is having a similar impact on the GPEW

Really couldn't make it any clearer that liberals aren't opposed to fascism, they just don't like Trump, and they get really upset if you point this out to them

Bro blocked me for pointing out that she supports Trump, the strikes, and Israel’s genocide

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

This is maybe my least pro-market position: the good thing about drinking in a pub is there is an adult who can cut you off, something which cannot happen when you are drinking alone with the booze you bought at Tesco.

Should go further and tax supermarket beer at a higher rate than at the moment- raises revenue, targets the biggest source of binge drinking and might help get people back into pubs.

Amazing to me that the number of people killed by cars continues to grow and you only ever hear about it if the news thinks the person driving the vehicle might be Muslim

@owenjones.bsky.social vindicated for pointing out that Labour MPs can no longer properly reckon with Russia's war crimes

What? But the government assured me that we had a watertight export regime, that absolutely nothing more needed to be done and it was ridiculous to suggest that we could be supplying parts for the bombing of civilians?
jamesmaccleary.bsky.social
Our sanctions against Russia have to be watertight and they clearly are not.

British-made parts being used in drones to kill Ukrainian civilians is appalling.

We must do more to slam shut the back doors that Russia is using to keep their war machine going.

I've said it before and I'll say it again

racists, transphobes and bigots more generally are absolutely objectively and factually those things.

But they truly do not believe they are not for any real reason. they just know those things are bad and refuse to accept them about themselves.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Can you imagine if Russia attacked and seized a UK vessel in international waters & kidnapped the people on board, including UK citizens, and the only response from the UK govt was to say that's "a matter for the Russian govt".

No, me neither.

BBC now suggesting they didn't interview Zack Polanski on Laura Kuenssberg when he was elected because they weren't on air then. Which is technically true because he was elected on a Tuesday. However, they did air just days later on Sunday and featured interviews with Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch
