Scottish Independence. Not my king - abolish the monarchy. Above is the view over my garden to Castle Hill (large tree). Malcolm III Canmore first held Parliament here in 1058. I don't automatically follow back, esp Yanks.

They are not white, so western governments and leaders do not care. The western media, politicians and authorities deem 1200 deaths more important than the 74,000 dead Palestinians. This is the brutal truth.

Tom Watson is the absolute scum of the earth along with all his other right wing Neoliberal dangerous scum crooks. He backstabbed Jeremy Corbyn to purposely bring him and his party down, back then. Like Mandelson and McSweeney, Watson is the epitome of political evil.

CA was credited with helping swing the Brexit referendum by Nigel Farage and having influenced it by the UK government inquiry into foreign interference. Then the 2016 Trump election.

Oh, Westminster has been pretty dodgy for a long while, but the biggest example were the Tories VIP Lanes during Covid, to the tune of at least £10 billion which the country will never see again. And the Reform Party is a walking corruption entity all on its own.

Zelensky feels the diesel deal is a BETRAYAL & says this is not how partnership works. He called the Miami talks a smokescreen, the decision weak, & the whole thing unfair. He says gifts to Putin will not buy peace, and Ukraine keeps hitting refineries unless Moscow stops wrecking Ukrainian energy.

at this point you have to wonder - did he start the war with Iran to purposely drive up the cost of oil just so that he could then make a deal with Putin and paint Putin as a savior to the US and the world. Not that I would credit him with this - but I could believe that Putin is directing him

Trump announced a diesel deal with Putin as Zelenskyy’s team met with Witkoff and Kushner in Miami. Ben explains why the deal won’t meaningfully lower prices, but could signal protection for Russian refineries as Trump pressures Ukraine to surrender territory.

4. How long will this take to organise & ship, given Ukraine can hit pretty much anywhere they feel like to disrupt it 5. Who gets the tiny amount of diesel - I'm guessing the MAGA heartland 6. Trump is either a liar, or a traitor, or both.

1. Ukraine is blowing the fuck out of refineries and storage facilities. 2. Russia doesn't have enough diesel to export & keep civilians & their military supplied. 3. Those numbers look big, but are tiny in comparison with US demand, measured in hours rather than days, never mind months.
