Alistair May @alistairmay.bsky.social · 14/05/2026What have we learned about the Labour leadership today? Wes Streeting really can't write decent prose. His letter is a grammatical and rhetorical mess. Good job he isn't positioning to be education secretary. 011
Alistair May @alistairmay.bsky.social · 12/05/2026We need a Prime Minister who will spend like Brown, tax cut like Thatcher, have the optimism of Callaghan, the charisma of Johnston, the modesty of Major, build the navy of Churchill with the fiscal prudence of Gladstone and the foreign policy Palmerston. So we're caught between a rock and a lettuce 010

Alistair May @alistairmay.bsky.social · 17/03/2026The Assisted Dying Bill in Scotland was going to be heartbreaking for many, whichever way it went. I believe this is the right decision, but deep respect to all MSPs, on both sides, who engaged, listened, and voted with compassionate minds and hearts. Now, let us unite and improve palliative care. 263
Alistair May @alistairmay.bsky.social · 28/02/2026I'm not sure what I think about the attack on Iran, but listening to their UN ambassador complaining about illegal attacks on civilians, and violation of sovereignty, is so thick with hypocrisy. 000

Alistair May @alistairmay.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Sadly, the only hope for Ukraine (given Europe's lack of arms) is that America is persuaded to change its mind. That means diplomacy.
