While the Tories' windfall tax was destroying jobs in Scotland, it's been revealed that Kemi Badenoch gave a £600 million backing for an energy plant in Belgium!

The Tories may support energy jobs in Antwerp, but only @theSNP is standing up for energy workers in Aberdeen

The Trump admin interfered in Colombia's presidential election in support of Abelardo De La Espriella, a right-wing militarist vowing heavy repression

We investigate charges of widespread electoral fraud which may have tipped the scales for De La Espriella in the 1st round

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

It's rare to see this much evidence of ballot tampering, US interference, conflicts of interest and rampant electoral corruption in one election

Abelardo's victory could mean a reboot of Plan Colombia and expansion of the Donroe Doctrine

[Andy] "Burnham declined to describe the catastrophe on the ground in Gaza as a genocide."

Please RT this -until the man who expects to be PM - no longer declines to describe the IDF's crimes in Palestine & Lebanon as a GENOCIDE.

Thank you.

This is an incredible admission that pro-Israel forces are going straight to the AI companies to alter the perception of reality that you see.

You can call this influence, manipulation or control, but you can’t say it’s not happening. She just told you they’re doing it.

@tykestakeonit Hodge is a serial tax avoider with all her wealth stashed in Liechtenstein - a tax haven:
Margaret Hodge’s family company paid just 0.01% tax – £163,000 on more than £65m profit.

There really is two tier policing in the UK:

Nathan Gill is in prison for taking £40k in bribes from a Russian based oligarch.

Nigel Farage is NOT in prison for taking £5 million in bribes from a Thai based crypto oligarch.

In Denmark, McDonalds workers make $25 an hour and, if they are over twenty, the company starts paying into a pension plan for them, and in addition they have a full 6 weeks of paid vacation.

Now how much do you think this costs customers? The Economist looked into this and found out that the Big Mac costs 76 cents less than it does here.

Don't believe the lies that raising the minimum wage would force prices to go up.

Israel is not our ally. They're a foreign government that has stolen our nuclear secrets, nuclear triggers and uranium. And they built weapons of mass destruction with them. They also stole our most sensitive intelligence through Jonathan Pollard.

They have robbed us of $320 billion. They made us waste $8 trillion fighting their wars in the Middle East.

The way they pulled off these heists is by legally bribing almost our entire Congress and being the top donor to presidents from both parties.

Their co-conspirators are the national media who cover up all these crimes and pretend that Israel is an innocent victim who desperately needs our help. When they are the exact opposite. They are an aggressive empire that takes our money and military and uses it to attack their neighbors and take their land.

We have to stop this inflitration of our country by a foreign nation that has taken control of the power structure in Washington. We are occupied.

He said: "Holyrood is a Parliament whose powers are devolved from Westminster and can be amended or even withdrawn by the UK Parliament.”
He told BBC in 2023 the UK is not a "Union of equals” and was never meant to be, saying it’s a “myth that has been put around by the SNP”

Comments @Daily_Record #r4today Scottish Conservative party treasurer steals £800k from the taxpayer (double what Peter Murrell stole) in VAT scam. Why hasn't his wife been arrested? Or is that #Honour reserved for @SNP #Spouses shameless #Tabloid #Gutter #Rag ye won’t be missed.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

When Larry Ellison donated a record-breaking amount of money to the IDF (not to US soldiers, but to the IDF), he repeatedly talked about the "country we call our own" and the importance of the IDF "to defend our home."

By "our country," he is referring to Israel, not the US.

[James Jackson @derJamesJackson]

Only 23% of Germans have a favourable view of Israel, lower percentage than the UK or France

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

Literally half the problems on this planet can be traced back to the UK. Including the US and Israel. It's extraordinary.

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

One for @bbclaurak who asked on air "Why would Israel lie?"
A leak has revealed the IDF actually has a programme to train its people in the “fundamentals of psychological warfare, propaganda, deception, legitimacy and public diplomacy." https://t.co/yW2WeZakYA

A major problem with @LordJohnMann is that he has a deplorable history of making fake allegations of antisemitism in order to advance his political purposes

[Chris Hedges @ChrisLynnHedges]

One of the main problems Americans face as the Empire declines is that we are ruled by grifters and idiots. When the British Empire fell, it slowly disengaged with its more imperialist impulses. The American Empire, on the other hand, has both of its political parties ramping up the nation's militarism, and as a result is inflicting massive suffering on the global populace as it falls.

@SkyNews How come England can just help itself to the UK pot for anything it wants when Wales and Scotland had to watch the same Labour lot sell steel works and refineries down the river?

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

"Never forget," they say.

But they choose what you remember.

Never forget Tiananmen.

Never forget 9/11.

Never forget the Holocaust.

But somehow, you are allowed to forget Fallujah.

You are allowed to forget Mỹ Lai.

You are allowed to forget Sabra and Shatila.

You are encouraged to forget Gaza while it is still happening.

This is not a culture of remembrance.

It is a culture of selective memory.
