“In Gaza, along with the brutal violence of the settlers in the West Bank, they both are crimes that frame us all in this time in history.”

As a Scot in Boston, I’m proud of the soft diplomacy achieved by our fans…but imagine that backed with the power of independence! Our democratic intellect, our rampant egalitarianism, our tradition of caring for the most vulnerable would all be revered and valued by the world.

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

Spot on, @MassGovernor. The Tartan Army are excellent ambassadors for Scotland - thank you for the warm welcome you have given us in Boston.

[Jenny Jones @GreenJennyJones]

Extremely well written piece by @GeorgeMonbiot sums up my views perfectly.
Plus we must be v concerned about a Home Sec, of any party, being able to accuse campaigners of 'future crimes' they haven't commited yet. Sounds like science fiction but it's real. https://t.co/zulIabYYp4

The positivity from across the American media from Scotlands presence is quite overwhelming. Scotland deserves more of a presence in the world. With Independence we can achieve this. ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Expect the 🇬🇧 media to attempt to distort.

If you made $53,000 a day or $20 million per year since Jesus was born you would still not make the profit Shell made in 2022.

It’s time for Shell to Stop Drilling and Start Paying for the climate damage they’ve caused.

Obama's deal resulted in shipping about 97 percent of Iran’s nuclear stockpile at the time out of the country. But Trump abandoned that agreement, so Iran produced a new half ton of highly enriched uranium that is near weapons grade. https://t.co/gWiaHxR7hb

Yesterday, a leak dropped on social media that listed 113 people belonging to Peter Thiel's ultra-secretive and highly selective society — Dialog.

A club for the wealthy and elite, akin to the Bilderberg Group.

Two British names appear in the list, one is an MP.

Little is known about the club, but I wrote an article about Thiel and Palantir in January [link below], if you'd like to know more background about him.

This leak purports to list members of the secret society and speakers scheduled to speak at an upcoming event in Dublin, in August.

As you'd expect, it's primarily US tech magnates, oil chiefs and Ai representatives, but it also contains some very prominent American politicians: Ted Cruz, Scott Bessent [Secretary to the Treasury], Cory Brooker [NJ senator] and Jared Kushner.

Some very unexpected names, however, are Tom Tugendhat MP and Matt Clifford, our government's previous AI Opportunities Adviser and the Chair of the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA).

Tugendhat has a background in the intelligence services and previously served in the Cabinet as Security Minister.

It's unclear to me why he would be part of this secret society, so perhaps a comment from @TomTugendhat might clear things up?

The other name is not so well known but served under multiple Prime Ministers on our national Ai strategy. He stepped down in January of this year for 'personal reasons'.

As a Venture Capitalist, you wouldn't bat an eyelid over his inclusion on this list, but as a government Ai adviser, it certainly raises an eyebrow.

I will do some further reading around this subject and report back, but it definitely seems odd that a sitting MP in our Parliament is involved in this über-secretive society under one of the world's most dangerous characters.

Today, @scotgov has announced an extra £600,000 of funding for Our Union Street

Union Street is home to so much of what folk love about Aberdeen, and that's why @theSNP is supporting our city centre with this investment

[Kate Wilton @KateWilton1]

Why aren’t the mainstream media picking up and reporting on this? It’s almost like it destroys their narrative.

[Good Law Project @GoodLawProject]

As well as recruiting influencers to discredit their detractors, Palantir are also waging a campaign of legal threats against outlets that report on them.

But, again, their bully-boy tactics have only served to draw attention to themselves 👀

83% of Britain is white.
87% of MPs are white.
92% of police officers are white.
94% of the House of Lords is white.
85% of Britain’s richest families are white.

Yet we’re supposed to believe Britain is gripped by “systemic anti-white racism”?

Give it a rest.

It’s a far-right grievance industry built on outrage, not evidence. If white Britons overwhelmingly dominate politics, policing, wealth and power, the conspiracy theory simply doesn’t survive contact with reality. #UKPolitics
