Is this the beginning of the end of neoliberalism? Thatcher was the arch-neolibertarian, she destroyed public services, sold off public assets claiming there was no such thing as society. More austerity can't cure austerity. People in France have had enough! Spain is following. Are we next?

So the #Tories plan to dismantle Holyrood to allow them to site nuclear power plants and nuclear waste processing in Scotland. Scotland is replete with renewable energy sources and nuclear is both unwanted and not needed. If England needs nuclear power let them site them on the Thames. #YouYesYet
