The GB Energy con was the cruellest trick played on Scottish voters. Labour promised lower energy bills and 53,000 new Scottish jobs. We got higher bills and no jobs. All over BBC Scotland during the 2024 general election. B4stards.

The British government made a 27 point plan based on 29 kids.
Jesus fucking Christ.
All for Israel.
Roddy McHardy retweeted
Only 5,000 kids were surveyed, only 92 were Jewish, only 70 of 92 responded, and 29 said they had faced antisemitism at school. Only 2% said antisemitism was a big problem at their school and we're reclassifying it as a more serious form of racism based on that? Is this a joke?

“Schools are not a place for making protests and statements about geopolitical events” the government said yesterday btw.
More pupils in the UK and Ukraine are set to benefit from reading for pleasure!
Earlier this year, we launched our UK-Ukraine schools partnership programme, which focuses on the importance of reading.
Now with a further £50,000 of government funding, 30 additional schools across the two countries are joining the initiative – standing with Ukraine and boosting reading skills through our Plan for Change.

🚨 CONTEXT: 95% of Black British pupils have experienced racism at school, according to a @ymca report in October 2020. 6 years later, no action has been taken on this.
In comparison, the government accepted all 27 recommendations of David Bell's antisemitism study after 1 day.

The government's antisemitism in schools report is a travesty.
It's riddled with errors, distortions and contradictions.
And it will be used to silence people over Palestine 👇

In 2026, teachers are being threatened with disciplinary action for wearing watermelon badges in solidarity with Palestine and against genocide.
This is Andy Burnham’s Britain.
Shame on him.

🚨 NEW: Sir David Bell, who carried out the antisemitism in schools report, is on the national council of the Academic Study Group, which states it works to strengthen links between UK and Israeli institutions. The ASG has strong ties to overtly pro-Israel orgs.

We need a fucking revolution..
Finishing touches ahead of this evening’s State Banquet… ✨
Tonight, The King and Queen will host a State Banquet for the Sultan of Oman at Windsor Castle.
☕️ Inspired by the Omani ritual of Kahwa, a collection of special teas will be served.
While Kahwa is traditionally a spiced coffee, the concept has been adapted to draw on the long-standing British love of tea while preserving the aromatic spices and flavours that make Kahwa so distinctive: fragrant cardamom, delicate rose, sweet dates, and gentle warming spices.
Guests will be invited to choose from an Iced Earl Grey & Date, an Iced Mint & Rose, or a Warm Cardamom-Spiced Blend sweetened with Windsor Honey.
Together, they reflect the warmth and hospitality shared by both Omani and British traditions. 🇬🇧🇴🇲

🚨BREAKING: RAF surveillance drones to assist lsræI with bombing of British schools after report reveals Hamas presence.

Your children will be blacklisted as enemies of the state for questioning Zionism at school.
They are losing the propaganda war, this is why they are censoring social media for minors and bringing in Digital ID.
Roddy McHardy retweeted
So, given only 32% of Jewish kids attend non-Jewish schools, this data must mean that 187.5% of them ‘have faced anti-Semitism’.
Overblown doesn’t begin to cover this nonsense.

"You know who else are antisemitic vermin? Your school-age children" feels like a significant escalation in our political class's psychological warfare against its own citizens on behalf of a genocidal foreign state
Roddy McHardy retweeted
We deserve to know exactly what military, economic and political support this country has provided to Israel.
The last government did everything it could to hide Britain’s complicity in genocide. Why is this government following in its footsteps?

The UK is currently using its jets to help defend Saudi Arabia, a murderous dictatorship that lures journalists to their deaths then chops them up and melts their bodies with acid.
And it's all from a genocidal war on Yemen that Saudi Arabia started.
Why are we defending them?
Roddy McHardy retweeted
I don't seem to remember a Parliamentary debate about the UK becoming an active participant in a hot war... or whether we should be supporting a horrific dictatorship that is responsible for gross human rights abuses and war crimes... because from here, it certainly looks like were being embroiled in an escalating regional war with a genocidal Israel and insane Trump in the driving seat, each with their own interests that conflict with ours.
EXCLUSIVE: The UK’s Royal Air Force will fly defensive missions to protect Saudi Arabia from escalating Houthi attacks, according to British officials familiar with the matter
RAF Typhoon fighter jets will help defend Saudi cities and infrastructure against aerial attacks from the Iran-backed militant group, the people said. Andy Burnham has signed off on the decision
Britain will also provide an Atlas A400M transport aircraft with heavy lift capability to move kit around Saudi, as well as military advisers
The decision marks an extension of UK support for Saudi in the wake of Houthi attacks which have killed more than a dozen people in Riyadh. There have been multiple attacks on the kingdom in recent days

Criticism of Israel in classrooms to be punished as a terrorist hatecrime. Literally
