For those of you who are wondering how Scotland's national public broadcaster could ignore our national day in this way: Scotland is forced to pay for the BBC as its national public broadcaster - but, remarkably, has no control over it.

I think it's safe to say that Corbyn's ridiculously self-sabotaging political project won't pose an electoral challenge to Starmer's right wing Labour party, and that's a shame as the left really needs to get its act together.

The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling.

All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense.

Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need.

REVEALED: Willow trees on Dartmoor common owned by Prince William deliberately poisoned with herbicide

This is an outrageous act of sabotage. Dartmoor’s commons are virtually treeless already, due to centuries of overgrazing by sheep. The culprit must be found:
