‼️ Andy Burnham's decision to replace standing charges with higher gas unit prices will push up energy bill costs in Scotland. 👀 Labour tried to pull the wool over the eyes of Scots, but no amount of trickery can hide the sky-high bills that people will be paying this winter!

Spot the difference 🤔
This is really poor by @FA. The governing body is supposed to protect players. It should be disputing this regulatory commission verdict by members drawn from the FA judicial panel. Max Dowman could have suffered a bad injury to his standing leg from a dangerous challenge which went unpunished. Arsenal 16-year-old shouldn’t have reacted but his frustration was understandable. Some other players might have rolled around and ensured a bad challenge was punished. Dowman didn’t. He doesn’t stay down. The FA should have shown some understanding towards Dowman. Instead, it has suspended him for three games. FA priorities all wrong: tolerating a poor challenge and some weak refereeing but punishing a kid who objected to a bad challenge that could have dealt him a serious injury. Protect players. #AFC

Our whisky, our jobs, our economy — yet Scotland has so little control over the decisions affecting them. 👇👇
Confirmed: Duty on #ScotchWhisky and other spirits will increase by 4.55% in February 2027 - a massive increase which now takes the total tax increase to 24% over the last four years.

Maccabi Tel Aviv football thugs in Jaffa 🇮🇱 chanting: ‘Death to the Arabs.’ Remember: Starmer’s government forced a West Midlands Police Chief out of his job For banning these fascist thugs from a Villa game ⚽️ Ban 🇮🇱 money from 🇬🇧 politics now.

“Perhaps my best story that never made the papers was the day I came out of the David Kelly inquiry and rang my news editor to say the ambulance crew had questioned the slash marks on his wrist being the wrong way round, only to be told, ‘No, that’s not the line we’re going on.’” Important article from 30 year Fleet Street veteran Melissa Kite (@melissakite1) about how the ‘media’ lies by omission to run PR for enemies of the people.

This is Westminster. OBR described the living standards projections as “grim”. We must get off this sinking ship 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
OBR: "We expect no growth in real earnings in 2027 and 2028, and a slight fall in real household disposable income  per person in the near term."

Absolute lies.The xionist Healy will cast the entire country into penury to accommodate his Likud masters.
Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine poses a serious threat to UK prosperity and security. That's why this Budget is providing over £10bn in additional support to Ukraine.

📰~ 𝐎𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 in 𝟏𝟗𝟒𝟗 The 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐅𝐢𝐯𝐞 of ℋ𝒾𝒷ℯ𝓇𝓃𝒾𝒶𝓃 𝒻𝒸 played as a complete unit for their first visit away to Celtic Just two weeks after making their official competitive debut against Queen of the South, the forward line travelled to Parkhead. The match was a tightly contested thriller, ending in a 𝟐-𝟐 draw in front of an immense crowd of 𝟒𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎 spectators • 17th Minute: 𝐋𝐚𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐲 opened the scoring for Hibs. The typical sharp movement from the centre-forward, slicing through the Celtic defence to make it 1–0 • 33rd Minute: 𝐆𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐡 doubled the lead. The match summaries note that Hibs' slick, passing "WM" formation completely overwhelmed the Celtic backline, leaving the home side chasing shadows and going into the halftime interval 2–0 down on their own turf

Not one of these people has ever had a real job, never invented anything, never exported anything, never run a business, never created any jobs...
A big Budget for economic growth. Decisive moves on energy, devolution and backing business. Proud to have worked with @JohnHealey_MP to deliver it.

Remember the names of those that chose to destroy our nation.
Today we’re announcing a new £10bn package of support for Ukraine. This funding will help Ukraine meet its immediate needs, support economic resilience, and help defend its sovereignty from Russia’s illegal invasion. We will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Always money for warfare. Never money for welfare. The magic of the magic money tree is actually dark magic because it only appears when killing and bombing people needs paid for. When caring for people and supporting people is on the table it stays invisible. Funny that! Not 😡
From the same elite political class that tells you "there is no such thing as the Magic Money Tree"... Well there is, but it's not there to fund vital public services like maintaining the roads, empty the bins or support the NHS, instead they are spunking it on corrupt demi-fascists in a war that Ukraine already lost.
