We don't need to "protect our borders"
Our biggest threat doesn't need to cross a border to harm us.
From a yacht, billionaires can move markets, pressure govs, dodge taxes & bankroll politicians to rewrite our laws.
The threat isn't the "outsider"
It's the concentrated power already inside.

People in Scotland want an asylum system that is controlled, that they have confidence in, and that shows compassion.
The Home Secretary’s proposals do none of these things.
We need a humane, effective and efficient system 🧡

Removing asylum support. Seizing belongings. Deporting entire families, including children.
Labour are not just paving the path to a Reform government. Reform may as well already be in power.
This government has no moral compass — and it should be ashamed of its inhumanity.

Going to see Bob Dylan tomorrow, its a 'no phones' gig where your phone goes in a locker.
Never been to one where you have to do it, but its my first and likely only time seeing him and I'm not missing the chance of taking a pic for memories.
Anyone got a phone into a gig like that? Is it easy?

Steve Bannon advised Jeffrey Epstein for years on how to rehab his reputation, texts show
Pair devised responses to public outrage about Epstein’s criminal history, his treatment by the justice system, and his friendships with powerful people
Hundreds of texts over almost a year show Maga influencer Steve Bannon and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein workshopping legal and media strategies to protect Epstein from the legal and publicity quagmire that enveloped him in the last year of his life.
The texts, released by the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday, show that as early as June 2018, the pair were devising responses to the gathering storm of public outrage about Epstein’s criminal history, his favorable treatment by the justice system, and his friendships with powerful figures in business, politics, and academia.
