Rachel Reeves says this Labour Governments decisions are "necessary."

Why is it always necessary to hit the living standards of the 99%?

When are we going to make the necessary decisions about extreme wealth?

The Nazi🤡’s “peace plan” for Ukraine would make Neville Chamberlain blush.
You could use it in Webster’s as the definition of appeasement.

Correction: What the Labour Party “used” to be about. Under the Starmer-McSwine rule it has swung more and more to the right with each lousy new move.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

There's a certain schadenfreude in witnessing the rest of the 'UK' catching up with what Scotland has known for decades.

Labour trying to put Scot back in its nuclear box after FM stopped Scotgov subsidies to arms co's supplying Isreal. Every Scot voting SNP is a threat to UK's national security, or for Plaid in Wales or Sinn Fein in NI? Labour now 'Red Reform' Party & we all need to fall in line as English patriots.
🔴‘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

💰💰💰PFI cost us £80bn for just £13bn of actual investment in our NHS

🤯 And now the government want to use MORE private finance ?!?

❌ We say no to the private finance rip off. We're handing in this petition to the Treasury on the 18th November. Make sure your name is on it.
Petition: No new PFI in Neighbourhood Health Services
Wes Streeting: do not use a “Public Private Partnership” to finance Neighbourhood Health Centres

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Democracy and decency can win over far-right scum. And we will
Zohran Mamdani in New York
Catherine Connolly in Ireland

The rise of the far right is not inevitable.
If we work together, we can dare to hope.

Good to see you, @guyverhofstadt.bsky.social.

Despite the disastrous Brexit that we never voted for, Scotland remains a proud European nation. We will be back, with our own seat at the table. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺

The commandments of Christianity are literally to welcome the stranger, feed the hungry, and heal the sick.

The commandments of Christian nationalism are exactly the opposite.

Christian nationalism is a heresy that is antithetical to Christianity.

While Labour copies Farage’s policies, our NHS and care homes are finding it harder to recruit the staff they need.

We have a solution.👇

I want to live in a Scotland free from child poverty, and that’s what I’m focusing my government on.

But we also have a moral responsibility to the Global South, particularly when so many countries cut international aid.
