Always a good sign when the newspaper of the far-right is raging.

I think one of the richest families on the planet should pay their taxes. What about you?

From Express article: Party co-leader Ross Greer – a rabid republican – will move an amendment to the Housing (Scotland) Bill to close the loophole which allows the monarch to purchase property in Scotland without paying any Land and Buildings Transaction Tax (LBTT).

President Trump is in the UK.

If he leaves without Keir Starmer sending the message that Israeli government's genocide will not be tolerated it will be a failure of leadership.

The UK must not stand by. Not in our name. #RedLineForGaza

Oxfam's message on a black background: "Prime Minister Starmer must leverage the 'special relationship' and encourage President Trump to help bring an end to this inhumanity." The words "bring an end to this inhumanity" are in red.

When Russia invaded Ukraine, the message from the Scottish Government to Scottish business was pull out of Russia: boycott, divest, sanction.

We need the same approach with Israel.

You'll no longer have to pay peak rail fares! Why? Because the @ScottishGreens.org, trade unions, and commuters demanded that the Scottish Government scrap them!

🔴 NEW: Nigel Farage claimed Glasgow houses 50% more “illegal” migrants than anywhere else in the UK. Ferret Fact Service checked the facts — and found the claim is mostly false. Here's why: bit.ly/4fZygHj
