Scotland is a country, not a county.

Nice to see the local Groucho Marx Appreciation Society showing off their Buy One Get One Free silicone implants for the world's meeja at Holyrood yesterday.

Tony Blair promoting ‘Children In Need’ in 2004.
A year earlier, Tony decided that what children need... particularly in Iraq, was to be starved and then have a billion pounds worth of ordnance dropped on them from bombers.

🇪🇺 EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen was pelted with eggs and rotten fruit during her visit to Bulgaria

Following the incident, she cut her scheduled 24-hour trip down to just 3 hours and left the country

This is a public's real attitude toward Brussels' policies

How are you meant to judge this case fairly when @Channel4 already swung it against him?

They hear what the public wants, then do the opposite.

📣🚨 FSU VICTORY!

A Scottish FSU member was driving on the M80 with his four-year-old son after a day at an amusement park when another car cut him up, nearly causing a collision.

Under his breath, he muttered something racist. The windows were down, but the other driver wasn’t looking at him. The only witness was his young son in the back seat.

Convinced the dangerous driver had been drinking, our member contacted the police. They eventually stopped both cars and reviewed his dashcam footage.

A week later, the police contacted him to say that an offence had been committed — not by the dangerous driver, but by our member, for words he had muttered under his breath in the privacy of his own car.

He was prosecuted for allegedly causing alarm and distress, even though only he and his young son were in the car. It is extraordinary.

The Free Speech Union found him an excellent barrister, and he was acquitted by the Justice of the Peace within minutes.

This is the closest we have come to defending someone prosecuted for thought crime.

This is the extent of police overreach in speech and thought policing. They need to get their priorities straight.

Facebook has started restricting me for my posts because of Russell Brand @rustyrockets and my belief he was stitched up. My profile reached 38 million these last few days as I detailed why I believe he’s been targeted. Please follow me here in case I get shut down.

Give this lady a follow please!

[Russell Brand @rustyrockets]

There never was a Russell Brand, according to @Meta.

Thank God for @elonmusk.

Stay tuned.

The media is obsessed with slimeball celebrity predators- latest allegations are against David Walliams - while Maggie Oliver has to sue the government to get action for tens of thousands of victims of Pakistani rape gangs.

I know which story I think is more important.

Let's go after the people who have nothing, and leave our rich donors alone.

[Peter Bedford MP @PeterABedford]

Most of us know someone on welfare who probably shouldn't be. A friend of a friend. A distant cousin. The chap a few doors down.
For too many, welfare has become a top-up for the cost of living, even "holiday money".
Only @Conservatives will tell the uncomfortable truth and defuse this financial time bomb.

[Cyberbint @SandPatterson]

I'd like to see Private Miliband and Private Burnham in the front line.

The people who cause wars never go anywhere near the fighting.
Perhaps we should change that.

I'm not defending Russell Brand here, I do believe that he is a brother in Christ however, if he truly did the things he has been found guilty of doing then he deserves jail time. What I want is a fair justice system that actually applies the law equally and righteously. If a man can go to jail for 10 years on nothing more than the testimony of women who claimed he raped them two decades ago, then the perpetrators of the grooming gangs should all be locked up with life sentences because there is a mountain more evidence against them! 250,000 white British girls, trafficked, groomed, tortured, pack raped and some even murdered...and hardly any convictions to show for it, in fact, the government can't even get the independent inquiry off the ground!
