LET’S HAVE A NEW UNION?..
The Parliament will be in Edinburgh and England will be allowed 45 Members.
The New Parliament will control ALL of England’s money and Assets but after about 300 years England will receive an allowance.
Shall I go on?..
While we get threatened with hosepipe bans whenever there’s a week of sunshine, it is estimated that Al data centres will consume water equal to the needs of 1.3 billion people by 2030.
Roger Waters, Pink Floyd co-founder:
"I'm ready to admit I break down in tears every morning for Gaza."
"Because I'm 80 years old — and I've never witnessed the genocide of an entire people before my eyes every single day." 🎸🇵🇸💔🔥
“It’s insane, we have a rogue US military contractor handling our most sensitive data. Palantir has a contract running our nuclear missile program. We have no national security.”
Palantir. IT'S WORSE Than You Think @carolecadwalla
@joannaccherry What of Murray Foote? He too was CEO of The SNP, taking over from Peter Murrell.
How did the architect of ‘The Vow’ become a powerful player in the largest pro-Indy party in Scotland? Has the party been infiltrated? Sturgeon following orders to remain in the public eye?
Good evening humankind,I've noticed a decline in engagement on my Tweets lately,with my reach decreasing by half each day. It's got me thinking that perhaps it's because I'm an climate and environmental activist, and also because I haven't yet subscribed for the blue badge.
Thank you President 🇸🇮.
Palestine is the moral compass of our time.
From Spain to Slovenia there is hope for Europe. A Europe that puts people above banks and markets, rights above profits, and respects int'l law regardless of political calculus.
We are back from last week's UN C-24 (Decolonization Committee) Caribbean Seminar in Nicaragua — a long, tiring haul, but well worth the journey.
Our good friend and advocate Maître Jérôme Bouquet-Elkaïm made, with our participation, four important interventions on advancing the decolonization process and procedures within the UN (to be published soon together with the full report to committee). Against the backdrop of an alarming new colonialism that is creating intense geopolitical uncertainty, and following statements of acknowledgement from statesmen and diplomats ranging from Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney to Russia's Foreign Secretary Sergey Lavrov, this is one of the most pressing topics in the United Nations today.
C-24 Delegates were left in no doubt that besides the 17 currently listed Non-Self-Governing Territories, other nations - some of which, like Scotland, never gave up their sovereignty to a dominating power - are waiting at the door to have their annexed and colonised status recognised.
Watch this interview in Managua with Sara Salyers to hear what Maître Bouquet-Elkaïm had to say.
She is a very special girl indeed is Marilyn Monroe.
It takes a lot to break a dog but she was very nearly there. She is utterly exhausted.
Time to start changing her life
🚨🏴 Some of the comments from the residents of Auchtertool in Fife.
As you can see they're not having it 👏🏼
We have to fight this with everything we have.
I refuse to let my kids and my grandchildren grow up in a digital prison.
And guess what? The world’s largest offshore wind farm (with wind turbines bigger than the Eiffel Tower) currently being planned on the east coast of Scotland is very close to the massive 600MW energy guzzling AI data centre proposed in Auchertool in Fife….just a coincidence obviously…
One of the grimmest political tricks of the last 15 years has been convincing the public that disabled people are a bigger economic threat than tax avoidance, private outsourcing failures, or housing costs.
In 2010, Andernach, Germany planted 101 varieties of tomatoes in the town center and told everyone to take whatever they wanted.
It was so popular that they did it again, adding beans the next year. Over time, they added onions, fruit trees, lettuce, zucchini, berries, and herbs, all free to the public and maintained by the city.
Andernach is now nicknamed the "edible city." And they're not alone.
Philadelphia has been doing a version of this since 2007. The Philadelphia Orchard Project has helped establish 67 sites across the city with thousands of food-bearing trees.
Baltimore is planting fruit trees on sidewalks. Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, and Asheville all have public urban orchards.
A mature apple tree produces 400-500 pounds of fruit per year. A mature pear tree can produce for 75 years.
Cities pride themselves on their tree cover. We've decided that trees are important, but we haven't fully decided those trees should feed people yet.
Would you support urban fruit trees and vegetables in your city?
And guess what? They need the prime farmland to plaster solar panels & wind turbines across thousands of acres to power the AI data centres (which they also need the farmland for). Join the dots…
