It's possible that in the span of one week, Bolsonaro loses in Brazil, Netanyahu loses in Israel, and Republicans lose the house and senate.
Here's hoping fascism loses everywhere.
Oh look say @STVNews 'Rosebank crude will go to Dutch refinery as no suitable refinery capacity in Yow Kay.'
No mention that country whose oil is being siphoned now has no refinery.
Grangemouth was sabotaged (passive industrial) by UK Gov in cahoots with Ratcliffe's @PetroineosGM
Endless streams of English MPs and English commentators, talking about Scotlands resources. The very same ppl who’ve been relentlessly telling us that Scotland is too poor to be independent, for years.
The SNP have hit out at the BBC ahead of a Question Time show which is due to debate Scottish oil and gas without any Scottish representation on the panel
SNP MSP Laura Mitchell said the BBC line-up was the 'perfect representation of the story of Scotland’s energy – zero Scottish say over our own resources'
This is the official map of Scottish territorial waters according to UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea). There is therefore no discussion or debate to be had, Jackdaw & Rosebank are very firmly in Scottish waters according to international law.
Pooling and Sharing...looks like a one way street to me. It’s our wealth & England are helping themselves to it. Too late to reclaim what they’ve already looted, but we can ensure we keep future revenues in Scotland. Independence isn’t really a choice, it’s an economic necessity.
James Cook, on the BBC live from Rosebank, just said there’s about 25 years worth of oil beneath is feet.
I thought the oil was done? Or was that a convenient 2014 lie to put Scotland down?
A couple publicly beheaded by the state for an intimate act on religious premises, leaving behind an eight-year-old orphan. In the 21st century, this is an appalling indictment of humanity.
No dogma, no culture, no claim of divine authority can justify such barbarism. Any ideology that sanctions murder in the name of morality deserves unequivocal condemnation. No faith, tradition or belief stands above human life and dignity.
FYI: McGill's, owned by the Easdale brothers - among the top Scots on the Sunday Times Rich List - who gave a “substantial” six-figure donation to Labour's election fund and explicitly say they want to help Scottish Labour “remove the SNP from power.”

They mention Idi Amin here, who I know very little about. A quick read tells me he was responsible for around 500,000 deaths, expelled 60,000 Asians & expressed support for Hitler. It doesn't mention anything about Amin introducing bus franchising.
