Finally made the move after becoming totally scunnered by the mess Muskrat has made of Twitter.
Disagree, argue but be respectful and kind.

Acting for the humanitarian detainees didn’t & doesn’t fit with GovUK’s pro-Israeli stance.
That and Labour Friends of Israel wouldn’t be too happy! 🤬

Scotland will do so much better, for all of our people, if we run our own affairs

As England lurches into the arms of far right,
#ScottishIndependence is crucial.

Got this rant via our walking group emails + some to\fro-ing generally lambasting the SNP for the state Scotland is in.
In less 5 mins I had the NHSUK covid vax eligibility screenshot + a BBC article on the restrictions in England!
Polite reply sent! 😡

This is the ultimate aim of Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation that is underpinning Trump’s tendency to autocracy and narcissism. US Democracy will die under these pressures and intimidations. That is why resistance is imperative. This will be the new norm across both sides of the Atlantic.

"15 years ago, Polish workers came here to find opportunity. Now Poland is growing twice as fast as we are," says Kemi Badenoch.

Any ideas what may have happened in the interim?

For two years, Israel’s attacks on Gaza have brought death, destruction, and unimaginable suffering to an entire population. Homes, schools, and hospitals lie in ruins. Children grow up under siege, mothers bury their sons.

This looks more like a Scottish Tory conference than their master’s conference!

This is a crackin’ appointment, he gave Saints defence a real shake up and it was excellent last season.
Just a shame it’s part time for the first year but, you know, contractual stuff!

Whilst it was heartbreaking hearing the Israeli mother on BBC5Live talking about kissing the vehicle in which her son was murdered 2 years ago today, how many of the 1000s of Palestinian mothers whose children were murdered at the hands of the IDF or GHF have BBC interviewed?

A racist pandering to other racists.
Honest Bob, the man who bent the rules to save a property developer who donated to the Tories £millions in tax!
Tax that should have been spent on Public Setvices!

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Scottish Flotilla activist Margaret Pacetta has arrived back in Glasgow after being detained in Israel

Hate only fosters more hate, it always will in a never ending cycle. The actions of Netanyahu’s Gov’t have degenerated into war crimes which have greatly exceded the depravity of the Hamas attack.

Those who died on 7 Oct and all those who have died since should be in our thoughts today.

Today is the 2nd anniversary of a heinous crime perpetrated by Hamas against innocent Jewish people. Families of hostages are still suffering today.

Shortly after, the Israeli Gov’t began perpetrating a crime against innocent Palestinians living in Gaza. That crime is still being perpetrated today.

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.
