Hey Michael @michaelgove any chance we could see the results of your polling on Scottish independence?
The results must have been catastrophic!
Was it like the McCrone Report? A clear and present danger to His Majesty's Government?
#ScottishIndependence 🏴
One of the most brutal scenes in human history has been leaked.
The moment the tents of displaced people were bombed in the southern Gaza Strip, in the Mawasi area of Khan Yunis, killing more than 500 civilians.
A video that the world must never forget.
It's now over a month since a complaint was made to the BBC following a false claim from James Cook that the SNP auditors resigning in 2023 was evidence of "something awry" with the party finances.
Why has the BBC not issued a public correction after a month?
THIS IS SATANIC ✡️🇮🇱
An Israeli soldier throws a stun grenade into a car carrying a Palestinian family, trapping them inside to absorb the blast.
Reports confirm one of the children inside is now permanently blinded for life.
🚨🚨‼️ يـحــدث الان 💥💥
اليابان تحظر رسمياً دخول جميع السياح الإسرائيليين إلى البلاد، مشيرة إلى الفظائع الإسرائيلية في غزة. 🇯🇵🇮🇱
انشروها على لتصل رسالتهم للعالم 🙏
Denmark has a new king, the King and Queen get approximately $500,000 from the Danish Government a year, and the whole family is worth $40m.
In the UK King Charles gets $180,000,000 a year and his family is worth $25bn.
We need to be more like Denmark.
🚨 BREAKING:
The United Nations has officially declared Gaza a genocide zone, noting that Israel is deliberately targeting children and infants.
It took them three full years to reach this conclusion.
"Me han robado la cosecha y nos han robado todo, nos han dejado sin absolutamente nada. Nos han destruido nuestra identidad".
Un abuelo palestino llora después de que los colonos sionistas le destruyeran las tierras de olivos y le robaran las aceitunas en Tulkarem (Cisjordania).
Esta mañana, los colonos han vuelto a destruir otra cosecha en la ciudad de Beita, al sur de Nablus.
Scottish maternity unit praised after unannounced inspection. Reporting Scotland mentioned it briefly this morning. No contrast with England. Wonder why?😉 No online article though which is odd considering a leaking roof at the Inverclyde Hospital has a dedicated online article.
David Pocock pauses, overcome with emotion, while detailing UN’s horrific findings against Israel
“IDF has now killed 20,000 Palestinian children”
“…deliberately shot at children’s limbs…as a twisted game of target practice”😔
Barbaric & sickening. This is our ally?
In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.
Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt.
While Norway still owns everything and has the equivalent of £10tn.
That's how privatisation 'works'.
Andy Burnham has written to Scots offering "greater public control" of water.
Water is already nationalised in Scotland.
Scotland deserves better than copy-and-paste PMs.
