A number of people on this platform have been claiming that it's not up to government to shorten people's time on remand, however far beyond the statutory limit that time extends.
Well, take it from a very eminent retired judge. It is.

Denmark owns Greenland cos it landed a canoe there 500 years ago? Like everything Trump says, the truth is far more complex. This video - posted after his first bout of sabre rattling last year - delves into the history of Greenland, Denmark and the US. youtube.com/watch?v=lYfS...
How did Greenland become part of Denmark and why does Trump want to buy it?

Why should a party influenced and controlled by Westminster sit in Scotland’s Parliament when its interests lie elsewhere?

This applies to all four main Westminster-owned parties in Scotland.

Vote them out of Scotland’s Parliament on Thursday 7 May.

End Westminster rule.

💪 Huge thanks to all our #ActiveSNP teams out campaigning across Scotland today, making the case for lower energy bills.

It’s Scotland’s energy - and it should work for the people of Scotland.

If you agree, join the SNP and be part of the change: https://www.snp.org/join

The Birmingham bin strike is a year old .The strike has been all but forgotten by the compliant mainstream media. No pressure on Keir Starmer whatsoever despite Birmingham being run by Labour. We all know what would happen if this was SNP run Glasgow.

Petrol pumps dry across Aberdeenshire. The refinery at Grangemouth is prioritizing tankers heading south to Manchester. We refine the oil, yet we can’t drive to work? This colonial extraction model has to end. Keep Scottish fuel in Scotland! ⛽️🚫 #FuelCrisis

It’s unacceptable that in energy-rich Scotland, people are facing fuel poverty.

Labour promised lower energy bills, but they keep going up.

With independence, we can use our energy wealth to lower bills for good.

Post Office had deal with Fujitsu to fix Horizon errors 19 years ago.

They lied to courts, parliamentary committees.

Postmasters knowingly wrongfully prosecuted, Lives destroyed. Compensation being paid from public purse, none by those who profited from the scandal.

No one charged for conspiracy.

Never trust the red Tories, between them and the blue Tories they've had over 300yrs to improve Scottish lives but funnily enough it's only improved since 2007 when a certain SNP got into power, might not be perfect but a shit ton better than any WM or branch office party has ever done.
