Scotland's dilemma. Perfectly expressed in a single tweet by @SeannachaidhS . 👏👏👏

Way back in the day, this album was one of the first CDs I bought. It's absolutely lush, it sounded superb on the Bose 501 speakers I had back then. (wish I still had them!!)
Seems kinda appropriate these days too.

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.
The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.
Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

Keir Starmers BlackRock Britain.
"BlackRock is highlighting that Labour’s entire political project rests on the willingness of companies like BlackRock to plough private capital into the foundational components of our society (and extracting massive profits in the process)."
Inside Labour's 'close partnership' with BlackRock:
“Dear Secretary of State on behalf of all of us here at BlackRock... congratulations.
"And may I add, on a personal note, it is a pleasure after all these years to address you as such!”

This is sad news for Perth, but probably the pragmatic decision.

A personal view and "some of the answers that underpin Liberation Scotland’s case. This is the case which the campaign group, Salvo is working to develop, publicise and advance as far and as fast as possible."

What a time for the SNP to be doing nothing on independence.
No plan, no vision, no idea, no communication - just a vacuum of cluelessness.
All with pointless SNP mandates. 🙈
Andrew Sinclair 🏴 🇺🇦 🎶🎸🎧 retweeted
The SNP has been very successfully infiltrated and are now operating as a Unionist devolutionist party. Anyone supporting the SNP from this point on would be as well voting Labour, Tory or LibDem. Wakey wakey independence supporters who still put your trust in the SNP.

I wonder what it will take before Scotland gets mad enough to break away from the UK? In 2014 they promised Scotland we were Better Together, that was a massive lie. The SNP has been effectively neutralised & is no longer a threat to the UK. When will Indy folk wake the fuck up?

Ireland - No Oil reserves yet has its own refinery ....
Scotland - VAST Oil reserves and is being forced to close its refinery by the adjacent occupying forces (UK govt) that will retain 5 (YES 5) refineries and use one in Belgium, despite NO significant reserves ....
Get it ??

Last night only THREE peers in the House of Lords called for public ownership of water.
That was me, Jenny Jones & Natalie Bennett (Green Party) out of a membership of 827.
Public ownership officially opposed by Labour, Tories & LibDems.
Most people want to end the scandal.

Ask you friends and family if they know what Freeports and Special Economic Zones are, they will look at you like you have two heads, then tell them there are 12 Freeports and 74 SEZs currently being set up across England, Scotland, and Wales.
Kickstarted by Sunak, fully backed and continued by Starmer's changed Labour party.

I am busy in Beirut doing stuff nobody else is.
I have noticed that they are trying to start WWIII from Ukraine,
and that the ludicrous official Skripal story collapsed, among other things.
But there is only one of me, and other brilliant friends have that covered.

Dartmoor is inside a 75km Special Economic Zone, almost all of England has been carved up into 48 SEZs. There are 16 SEZs in Cornwall alone.
Labour are continuing the Tories deregulated SEZs/Freeports experiment in corporate governance.
Mogg’s REUL Bill revoked 600 EU/UK laws on 31st December 2023 with 1000s more for the chop by 2026, that same bill is in pro-Brexit Labour’s hands.
The 3 main areas targeted in Mogg’s bill were employment rights, food safety, and environmental protections.

Please watch this. Asif Kapadia’s new film was always going to be important but the timing means it couldn’t be more prescient. Set in 2073 in New San Francisco, it’s a dystopian vision of a world we’re already living in
From Oscar- and BAFTA-winning director Asif Kapadia comes 2073.
A "monumentally powerful" (@LWLies) urgent vision of the future, and how the path we're on now leads us straight to it.
2073. In Cinemas January 1 & 2
+ Exclusive Q&A with Asif Kapadia and @carolecadwalla

We can now confirm that this missile strike was on rooms of the local district council where aid packages were prepared for and collected by refugee families.
The local mayor and his two sons were killed and 19 people seriously injured. Another attack on civilian infrastructure.

The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary are trying to redefine genocide.
Two self declared Human Rights lawyers.
•Blind to the murder of thousands of Palestinian 🇵🇸 children
•Blind to forced starvation
•Blind to ethnic cleansing
They belong in The Hague with Netanyahu 🇮🇱
