A little anti establishment hip hop tonight. I listened to this album (IV, 1998) as a sulky teenager over and over. I love revisiting old music and the memories attached 🎶 youtu.be/uJUUAMFCnis?...

I was born in 1980. My first memory of Thatcher is her taking milk off of school children and making my parents redundant time after time. She devastated the west of Scotland and made our lives significantly worse. Of course if you were posh you did very well

And quite honestly they've made social care an unattractive job. Home carers work a ten hour shift with a 4 hour break in the middle so it's a 14 hour day, for the absolute bare minimum pay. And the work they do is invaluable. Should be paid three times as much

Again, I saw the largest onshore wind farm in the UK just this morning as I drove home, yet I have to think twice about putting the heating on. Just like I have to think about what I buy in the supermarket. In one of the most energy rich countries on the planet. The Union Dividend in action

I pay the same in rent for a 2 bedroom council house as I did for a 1 bed privately rented flat. My council rent covers the boiler and any repairs needing done, it's absolutely stress free and has provided me with stability in my life. Everyone should have that opportunity if they require it

Great moments in Scottish engineering history: James Watt tries to work out how his phone attaches to his selfie stick.
Statue of James Watt. In his right hand he holds a telescopic stick with a frame at the top; in his left he holds a flat object about the size of a large smartphone. He is scowling at the possibly-not-a-smartphone as if he is tempted to yeet it into the sea. On that basis, it probably _is_ a phone.

When I worked in construction sales I had to visit the housebuilders. The worst companies to deal with, wanted everything for nothing, and financially penalised the workers for going over the allotted time per task. As such the build quality was shocking. Profit above all else

"You will never defeat us" is a very funny thing to say after you've just bailed everyone who was involved in whatever the fuck this was
All five men arrested in RAF base plot are British nationals
The five men who were arrested and subsequently released on bail are all British citizens, home secretary Shabana Mahmood has just told the Labour party conference.

She adds that the scene is “now safe” and the residents living near to the RAF base are now able to return home.

“Let this be a reminder: you will never defeat us,” he says.

And to fix any sort of care he has to admit that we NEED immigration to fill social care roles. It'll take a complete 180 on the current UK stance. But it's probably bollocks anyway given how much Labour lie 🤥

I was working in a leather factory in 2002 when they introduced mandatory drug testing. I'd guess at least 60% of us failed, and they had made exemptions for management. It was about control of the plebs and nothing else. I wasn't making life altering decisions though

Glasgow's drug consumption room has dealt with 195 medical emergencies since it opened last year. It saves lives. Drug addiction and misuse is a health crisis. We need a major expansion of harm reduction and treatment services, including safe consumption facilities.
The National. Experts reject attacks on The Thistle and call for bolder drug death action. Experts have agreed that drug consumption rooms like The Thistle are "without a doubt" saving lives.
