tall, greying and haggard. This is where my politics happens. Can get a bit rough at times. All the views are personal and not endorsed by anyone or anything :)
Brexit has been a disaster for the UK economy - and a growing majority of people recognise this.
Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer are the Thelma and Louise of UK politics - driving the economy off a Brexit cliff and urging voters to hold tight rather than change course.
More Tory chaos. Therese Coffey said this morning that the UK Government had not banned King Charles from going to the Cop27 Climate Summit. No.10 now admits they did. https://t.co/rKeiuQ6AEt
Gillian Keegan is the new Education Secretary. She lives in a £2 million property in Sussex, owns homes in Spain, France and London and her husbands a multi millionaire. She voted against extending free school meals during holidays for kids in October 2020.
Tories eh?
Anyone who “dreams” of deporting refugees and asylum seekers is anathema. To appoint her shows exactly the nature of the new U.K. Prime Minister. Moreover Starmer says that his migration policy would be substantially the same as the Tories. Nothing changes. #YouYesYet
NOON - Sunak: "This government will have integrity...at every level"
4.15pm.....brings back Suella Braverman, sacked as home sec for breaching the ministerial code....SIX DAYS AGO
@holyroodmandy@HolyroodDaily Hi Mandy.
Can you please show us the detailed plan for Scotland within the union please?
I assume there will be Red Tory/Blue Tory versions?
Both fully costed, and without the word 'could' included.
I assume you have these readily to hand, yes?
To be absolutely clear for folk in Scotland - there is no "fix" for this utter shambles. Not some imaginary "unity" candidate, not Johnson (obvs), not a general election, not a Labour government. Brexit is the cause, and it'll go on, and on, and on - until we're independent.
