📣 “How can you justify this continuing refusal to allow the people of Scotland to have a say on their own future?”
🔥 @mrjamesob tears into the news that @ScotParl cannot legislate for #indyref without Westminster approval - regardless of how Scotland votes.
My local record shop (Leigh Records in Leigh-on-Sea) just had a collection of record shop bags come into the shop along some CDs….might jog a few memories for people…
On this day in 1985, #KateBush released her fifth studio album “Hounds of Love” featuring singles "Running Up That Hill" "Cloudbusting" "Hounds of Love" and "The Big Sky"
Important to be neither complacent nor over dramatic about this. When case numbers low, small changes will do this to R number - we may see similar here in future. However, it is still a sharp reminder that virus hasn’t gone away and could quickly take off again. Care needed.
@petepaphides I've just read #BrokenGreek and it was everything I expected it to be and more. It was so evocative and, in many ways, relatable. Thankyou for that.
2/ the only remotely workable way to do Brexit is to stay in the single market and customs union. If PM not prepared to do that, Brexit shouldn’t happen. ‘No deal’ or ‘no detail‘ Brexit simply not acceptable - especially for Scotland, where we did not vote for this.
1/ PM statement was dreadful. The EU view was bluntly expressed yesterday but not new - she just hasn’t been listening. If her tactic now is to double down on the Chequers dead duck, and then blame EU for a no deal, she will do huge damage to all those she is supposed to serve.
