If England decided it wanted to hold a vote on becoming independent, do you think it would have to ask Scotland’s permission first?

All the best to Sullom Voe terminal workers striking in Shetland for a decent pay deal. These skilled workers are integral to energy security and corporate.profits from the North Sea. Will the Tory and SNP politicians and industry lobbyists who are keen to be seen backing oil jobs support them too?

London: 7°C - Pitlochry: -2°C
Yet the person freezing in Pitlochry pays more for electricity — electricity generated in their own town.
Meanwhile, London, which produces almost none, pays less.
This isn’t just unfair. It’s exploitation. And it’s happening in Scotland every single day.

One in seven (13%) of England’s bathing waters are rated as polluted, and one in 14 so polluted they are not recommended for swimming. Bognor Regis, Scarborough’s South Bay were rated “poor” in the latest classifications from the Environment Agency, which means they are not recommended for swimming.

No less than €180 billion in frozen Russian assets are dispersed across the European Union.

The EU plan would be to deploy €140 billion (£122bn) of these assets as a zero-interest “reparations loan” to Ukraine, providing Ukraine with urgently needed resources.

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.
