The outrage over Argentinia waving a flag with "Malvinas" scribbled on is laughable
England fans have spent decades singing about shooting German bombers & "No Surrender" now they're offended by nationalist gestures
Hypocrisy is off the scale & they wonder why they're unpopular
In the book, I cover the seminal Scottish influence in the early days of football in both 🏴 and 🇦🇷 but while Argentina proudly acknowledges a Scot as the father of Argentine football, England, as usual, is in total denial. Fitba can never come home to 🏴 as 🏴 is its true home.
Thanks to the Tories' VIP Lane, Michelle Mone got a private jet and a superyacht on the NHS. Which is good going, given that most of us can't even get a GP appointment.
We can never accept burning effigies of political representatives, flags or symbols as normal.
In any other part of the world, this would be unfathomable and unacceptable. It should be no different here.
This is hatred, rooted in ugly sectarianism and racism.
Last night, effigies of political representatives, including myself, were placed on bonfires, surrounded by flags and emblems.
Those responsible have nothing to offer except fear and division.
But they will not succeed.
I will not let hatred dictate our future.
I will continue to build a future where all our children grow up free from hate.
Here we fuckin go again.
The same scam, the same people, the same money laundering, the same genocidal bastards, the same state protection; the same ignoring Islamophobia, the same persecution of people who hate kids being murdered & the same arrests of pensioners with signs 🙄
@JohnCooperDG Prestwick has just returned profit for the seventh year in a row.
Under your lot it was destined for closure until Scot Govt (that’s a SNP govt) bought it for £1.
Derided by unionist quislings at the time, but now profitable and securing employment.
Reform UK has announced a new policy that would outlaw the use of Scots and Gaelic in political leaflets. This would be political, social, and cultural suppression.
I fear to think just how far they will attempt to go
This man just set the world record for running a marathon in full Highland dress.
Portobello-born Nick Ghamgosar completed the Gold Coast Marathon while wearing a kilt, jacket, waistcoat, bow tie, socks and sporran in a new record time of 3:11:22 — 6 minutes inside the record.
After independence we may have to operate like Iceland to protect our territorial waters from poaching fisherman. We have such an embarrassment of natural resources. What an independent future the Republic of Scotland will have. Bring it onnnnnn!!!!
In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism.
It perfectly explains Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson and the entire Right.
If you are Scottish, Welsh or Irish and decide you aren't supporting the England football team against Argentina. Well, enjoy your embellished history lesson on the Falklands from some no mark Englander on Twitter.
Alexei Sayle calls on all who can to join our march for Palestine on July 18 at 12pm, to demand the next Prime Minister take all possible action to end Israel’s genocide.
