When your taxes go up in the Budget, remember this Ukraine arms procurement scandal that the UK has partly funded. $140 million in cash found at the office of the former defence procurement chief, part of a reported $1.2 billion lost to fraud and waste in procurement in 2024 alone.

🇫🇷🇺🇦"THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE SCENARIO, IT MUST NOT BE ALLOWED"
📣French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon stated that by supplying weapons to Ukraine, Paris is becoming a party to the conflict.
Look at this from any side you like, but… imagine yourself as a Ukrainian or a Russian for five minutes.
If you are a Ukrainian — listen to me — it is obvious that you cannot accept that your capital is being bombed.
So you will use for your defense whatever you have at hand. And you have the legal right to do so, since it was you who were attacked.
But we, those who are around, also have something to say. Do you really think that the Russians will agree that Moscow is being struck and will simply sit idly by?
Do you know that French and British weapons are being used for these strikes? You do know this. Thus, we are gradually becoming a party to the conflict. This is the worst possible scenario, it must not be allowed."
The UK currently holds only 42 days of diesel in its emergency stockpiles. While the UK stands at just 42 days, countries like Italy hold 347 days, the USA has 677 days and Canada and Japan maintain over 1,000 days of supply.
In the early 2000s, Britain held over 100 days of diesel reserves. However, as major domestic oil refineries closed down over the years, the country's massive storage tanks disappeared with them, leaving the UK heavily reliant on just-in-time imports.
That is the jeopardy facing every supermarket shelf, every hospital delivery, every harvest, every bin collection and every freight train that still keeps Britain functioning. And the system that supplies that fuel security has been allowed to grow dangerously thin.
Meanwhile the UK’s ability to make that fuel itself has been dismantled. From eighteen refineries in the 1970s to nine at the turn of the century, Britain is now down to just four: Domestic demand already exceeded refining capacity before those closures. The gap is filled by imports - more than half of the diesel that goes into British tanks.
This has happened through a long succession of terrible government choices and neglect that treated energy security as an afterthought. Carbon costs were loaded onto plants that operate here, while higher-carbon fuel could be imported without equivalent burden. Almost every government over the past 20 years helped to create this looming crisis.
Diesel is the engine room of the economy. And successive governments have allowed the tanks to run towards empty.
Shameful.

Independence would make establishing a Scotland Europe ferry far easier, faster, and more strategically useful, because Scotland would control ports, customs, border infrastructure, transport policy, and international agreements directly.
Why independence changes the ferry equation completely
Right now, every attempt to restart the Rosyth Europe ferry has collapsed because Scotland does not control the levers needed to make the route viable
The recent failures at Rosyth were due to UK level constraints on customs, border infrastructure, and commercial conditions.
Independence removes those constraints.
Scotland would control its own customs and border infrastructure
The Rosyth Dunkirk project required UK Government approval and UK Border Force upgrades.
Even with £3m committed, the route still failed because the commercial and regulatory conditions couldn’t be aligned under UK control.
With independence Scotland sets its own customs rules
Scotland designs its own border posts
Scotland negotiates direct EU entry protocols
Scotland can place customs facilities at Grangemouth, not rely on UK law changes (as currently required)
This alone removes the biggest bottleneck.
Everything must go through Westminster it blocks everything
Grangemouth as a ferry ⛴️ port would be a massive asset to the country and create a new and more comfortable way of travel for tourists and cargoes.
The massive upgrade to the area since 2010 the kelpies in particular is a. Tourism hot spot.
These ferry from Grangemouth are a guaranteed winner.
That’s why west is stopped it.

*Uprooting trees to uproot the people*
Weeks before the olive harvest, Israel orders uprooting Palestinian olive trees across the occupied West Bank. Thousands have already been destroyed since October 2023.
Environment destruction is part of the accelerated ethnic cleansing.
No one is buying that bullshit anymore, Mike.
Just yesterday, Israel's elections committee voted to bar all Arab parties from participating in Israel's upcoming elections.
JUST IN: DUTCH PM ON THE ICC:
“And now, with the ICC under attack, the writing is truly on the wall. After all, how can you possibly be opposed to prosecuting the very worst crimes?
And I believe there can be only one response: to say, hands off the ICC and all those other institutions that protect the international legal order.”
“Honourable settlers”
“People, law-abiding people "
- Netanyahu
Netanyahu claimed that over the entire period the issue has been debated, there have been
"maybe two or three dead" total as a result of settler violence.
THEY LIE AND LIE AND LIE AND LIE‼️
Sturgeon larping as the Brit politician she always was with other #VichyScot fuds Murphy, Robertson, & Gove in tawdry soap opera propaganda for diverting more public money into the Brit military industrial complex is a fitting encore to a political career of betrayal & failure.
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: ‘The US🇺🇸 is in a deeply neurotic funk. The cause is China🇨🇳.
China didn’t beat up its neighbours either. For 1000 years, China did not attack Japan. The US can’t even take a year off from attacking other countries.’
