Evil immigrant? Yes.
Yank? No.

I've lived in Scotland for 19 years. Married to a British citizen, British citizen child, native English speaker, PhD from an ancient Uni, employed, mortgaged, community councillor...no longer the "good migrant"...because good migrants don't exist under fascism.
Reform wants to scrap indefinite leave to remain and replace it with 5 year renewable visas which can't be accessed if you ever access benefits.

Basically turning every immigrant in the UK into people vulnerable to exploitation by employers they rely upon to stay in their homes.

So tired of self-righteous atheists claiming Christian politicians are doing terrible things because their faith.

Have you ever thought that some of us are terrible people in spite of our close personal relationships with Jesus?

Lamb of God out here telling me to maybe wind my neck in a bit...

*Scottish corporations are booming.

Scotland isn't booming. We could boom, we could be amazing, we could be the best damn country on Earth, but not while we cling to neo-liberal policies of resource extraction and ignore Scotlands communities.
Scotland supplies 50% of all the UK renewable energy and 33% of all UK Food and Drink Exports.

It's 2025.

Scotland, very unquestionably, isn't #bettertogether.

There's no rational argument, against Scottish Independence.

Scotland is BOOMING.

Why do we have fit notes after surgery in the UK?

What an utter waste of time...

Q:Why can't you work?
A: I had an organ removed from my body and it hurts a lot.
Q:How long do you think your illness will last?
A:Shouldn't the surgeon decide that?

Could just be a line on the discharge letter....

Looks like a bunch of people who get paid too much have to write their own emails today. My thoughts go out to the management classes in this difficult time

Babies In Cages.

The British Labour party want to put babies in cages.
Lots of Labour MPs asking Mahmood tonight to rule out child detention. She won’t rule it out. That’s because forced removals of families will mean children in detention for periods.

Home Office ruling out deportation of lone minors but the changes will certainly mean more detention of children.

On the other hand, its interesting how the vote goes Labour-Reform so dramatically. It does make me wonder how much of the Scottish reform vote is low-info & got screwed over voters. Considering how many campaigning events I'm at that Reform are trying to hijack..there's an opportunity here.
it was really funny when we all let Anas Sarwar think he was going to be First Minister

When British people ask "Why would Shabana Mahmood decide to mimic white supremacists like Noem?"

Learn one of those terrible Yank phrases: follow the money. Fascism makes fascists a lot of money.
Kristi Noem funneled $220 million in taxpayer money to a firm tied to her inner circle. No-bid contract. Hidden companies. Personal + political connections. THIS DEMANDS AN INVESTIGATION.

Baby formula and pharmaceuticals should be produced by an arm of the NHS. Formula provided on demand for any infant.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Yeah, getting super excited for...guy who violated electoral law so that he could carve how much he hates immigrants into a giant rock.

Not quite as dangerous as the one Dawn Foster went to Uni with, but still, what a bench...
Odds of Ed Miliband being next PM are hugely underrated.

The council have threatened to issue a Summary Warrent for overdue tax today.

My partner paid £245 on the 1st of Oct instead of £275 by accident. He then paid the full amount on the 1st Nov.

Can't imagine how this could mess with someone struggling.

Cruel, wasteful, Aberdeenshire Council.

Nationalise themanagement of all wildlife. Run resident training programmes, and issue permits based on ecological balance.

It works well for places outside the UK, we just need the political will to make it happen here. (Places that have intriduced wolves successfully)
Green MSP Ariane Burgess said that if Scotland is “serious about reversing nature loss and tackling the climate emergency, we have to get deer densities down to levels that allow woodlands and peatlands to recover”

The rush for 2030 has caused significant abuse of both local democracy and the environment.

We need to stop seling out our future to Wealth Vampires- whichever form of Energy they're peddling.

Scottish Greens have the answers, we just need the tools (votes).

As the chair of a community council, I was one of many people who objected to SSEN substation near my village. One of our major issues was the failure of SSEN to either work with our community, or stick to their promises.

Same company different village.
