Scotland’s freedom to choose is at risk. Many in the country might be deemed to be terrorists before too long. Those who might enact such laws have already given you due warning, writes Professor Richard Murphy 👇

‘Teachers to vote on strike action over workload’ despite Scotland maintaining the lowest PTRs overall, reflecting higher per-pupil spending and policy priorities on smaller classes

Professor John Robertson OBA It’s impossible to escape the conclusion that if teacher workload is the issue in Scottish schools then there is a failure here of management in schools to apply …

Taken from Talking Up Scotland blog, as BBC Scotland 'celebrates' their achievement in pushing down trust in the Scottish Government.
Some facts they chose to omit.
1. Shorter hospital waiting times, for all treatments, especially for 18-weeks, cancer, alcohol and drug treatment, IVF and A&E...

As my pal said. When they've deported all the immigrants, who's going to be next?
Fascist Farage has said that he wants to deport all immigrants, including the folk who are legally here. (I'm assuming he's including his French girlfriend.)
Once he's done that, who's next?

Google AI says..
Yes, the Scottish Government could introduce a wealth tax, but it would likely need further devolution of powers from the UK Parliament to implement it as a national tax, or it could be implemented as a form of local tax...

In Scotland two families own more wealth than 1.3 million people.

We're one of the wealthiest countries in history, but that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a tiny few.

That's why a wealth tax on the super-rich is supported by an overwhelming majority of Scots.

STV News. Wealth tax on ten richest Scots 'could lift 30,000 children out of poverty'. A tax of 2% levied against those with assets worth £10m or more could bring in £492m a year from Scotland's ten richest families, study finds.

Urgent winter clothing appeal for UK baby banks.

In 2024 charity distributed 6,752 coats, 14,163 pairs of shoes, 2,857 blankets, 1,472 items of bedding and 45,220 pairs of socks to families in need.

Low wages/benefits; high energy, water, grocery costs; unchecked profiteering take toll.

London baby banks appeal for urgent donations ahead of winter

Baby banks in London say supplies are running low due to more families facing increased financial pressures.
