@86278263789@BjCruickshank Yes it is increasing by all the settlers illegally and violently taking over farms, land, houses, and now we have Palestinian land and property sales in America, West Bank and UK. Disturbing grotesque behaviour.
I have tabled the following amendment to the Kingโs Speech to defend two foundational liberties: the right to trial by jury & the right to access public services without digital ID. Ancient safeguards against arbitrary power must not be surrendered without mandate or consent.
@FemaleScotlandV Now ask Offord why he said months ago he would rather stick pins in his eyes than collaborate with SNP. But of course now Offord only got in as a list MSP heโs suddenly become self righteous about it all.
๐ถAbsolutely amazing scenes in Wales as Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth - set to be Wales's first pro-independence first minister - is interrupted by an impromptu rendition of the Welsh national anthem
The state pension is not a random government favour, itโs the back end of a 35โ40 year compulsory โcontractโ where people are forced to hand over National Insurance on the clear promise of a basic pension at the end.
Politicians and think tanks helped design an unfunded, payโasโyouโgo system where todayโs workers pay todayโs pensioners, then have the gall to call it โunsustainableโ as if the public dreamt it up.
If a private firm sold you a retirement product on fixed terms, took your money for four decades, then announced at 66 that you โdidnโt really need itโ and would henceforth be meansโtested or frozen, they would be in court for misโselling and fraud.
The crisis here is not pensioners โleeching off the youngโ, itโs a political class that built a Ponziโstyle NI system, diverted the proceeds for other spending, and now wants to default on the people who kept their side of the bargain.
You do not blame the victims of a defective product for believing the brochure; you go after the people who wrote it.
@BBCNewsnight@vicderbyshire Pity @vicderbyshire didnโt seek out the thousands of english people who have moved to Scotland in last few years for a better life and better services. The competition for rental and buying houses has become fierce due to supply and demand. This is vile propaganda by the BBC.
