Scotland doesn't want them, Scotland doesn't need them, Scots will have these things imposed on them because England wants them & needs them so let them build them in their own country. Scotland needs out of this"union" & it needs out now. #ScottishIndependenceNow

The government has declared datacentres “nationally significant infrastructure projects” that can be forced through the planning system. This means getting preferential access to water. Yet it has no idea what they're used for. Our dwindling supplies might be prioritised for nudifying celebrities.

That is simply not possible.

A quote appears as follows: What's a billion dollars? Suppose that every day you got $1,000. In a year you'd have a third of a million, and in three years, one million. Since a billion is 1,000 million, it would take you 3,000 years to earn a billion dollars at this rate. If you started saving $1,000 daily at the time of Christ, 2,000 years ago, today you'd have two-thirds of a billion dollars. There are over 3,400 people who own more than a billion, including Elon Musk: $919 Billion, Jeff Bezos: $369 Billion, Larry Page: $378 Billion, Mark Zuckerberg: $249 Billion, Jensen Huang: $200 Billion, Larry Ellison: $179 Billion, Bill Gates: $114 billion, Warren Buffet: $142 billion, Peter Thiel: $37 Billion. Ask yourself, how could they have possibly earned that money in any realistic sense of earn? And, if they didn't earn it, who did, and why is it not in their possession?
