For @jacobin: “The SNP’s ‘big tent,’ gradually erected over decades of painstaking pitching to different parts of the Scottish electorate, is beginning to fray. In part, that’s because ministers and parliamentarians have stopped tending to it.” https://t.co/ZWRcryVLyK

[Derek Watson @derekwatson89]

@MccailColl And Labour abstained.

HAPPENING NOW 🇨🇴 Students from Universidad del Valle, one of the largest public universities in Colombia, are striking against far-right candidate Abelardo de la Espriella until after the second round of the presidential election.

Yesterday, Reform’s entire MSP cohort opposed the introduction of a £25 ticket cap for away football fans.

In the Hamilton by-election only a year ago, their candidate regular proposed lifting the alcohol ban at games. That mask of populist insurgency already beginning to slip.

spot on prognosis of where we are in scotland, a massive opportunity for the left if we can seize the moment

[David Adler @davidrkadler]

Powerful, uncompromising speech here at the Tequendama: “In the toughest moments of our history, we have known how to endure — genocide, wars, fraud…. Now, we mobilize to win the presidential election in the second round. Abelardo is a neo-fascist scammer. No pasarán!”

[Coll McCail @MccailColl]

As Hasan Picker and Cenk Uygur are denied entry to the UK, it’s worth remembering that Isaac Herzog — accused of “direct and public incitement to commit genocide” by the UN Commission of Inquiry report — was welcomed by Keir Starmer on the steps of No10 in September.

@davidfkey @jacobin Gotta be shameless sometimes!

[Jacobin @jacobin]

The Scottish National Party held on to power in this month’s elections, but it is losing the working-class votes it needs to build a majority coalition for Scottish independence: https://t.co/oW9U5HB2C4

[Jacobin @jacobin]

The Scottish National Party’s former chief executive Peter Murrell has pled guilty to embezzling £400,000.

While the Scottish independence movement promised deeper democracy, the SNP leadership has operated like a cartel. https://t.co/oW9U5HB2C4

[Coll McCail @MccailColl]

A victory for rootless nationalism.

My post-election write up for @jacobin.

The ghosts of the New Labour years are going to war with young people. A simply question for them: where are the jobs?

[Coll McCail @MccailColl]

A terrific advert for the people’s paper — the only one of those five owned by its readers.

[Cai Parry-Jones MS @Cai_ParryJones]

One of the five newspapers provided in the Senedd's Members' area was founded by the Communist Party.

A signal of why economic growth in Wales has been so abysmal for the last 27 years?

[David Jamieson @David_Jamieson7]

Didn’t even notice the SNP launched another pretend bid for independence today.

Couldn’t tell you how many there’s been now. Not even if a Campervan, onesie, expensive hair products and several toilet seats depended on it.

[Coll McCail @MccailColl]

Heatstroke… the change Scotland needs.

[Jason Groves @JasonGroves1]

NEW: No 10 rules out setting maximum temperature for workplaces, classrooms, etc 😓

[Skotia @TheSkotia]

The SNP is shifting right post-election, says Coll McCail (@mccailcoll).

[Coll McCail @MccailColl]

Alan Milburn is advising the Labour government to 'reform' welfare to get young people into work. But where are the jobs? On @LBC earlier today.
