The United States of America is the ONLY Nation on earth who's citizens are permitted to have guns SPECIFICALLY in order to rise up against an Authoritarian government and yet they choose to do FUCK All 🤔 This is the feeling we have in Europe.

Thanks to SNP public ownership, Scotland has the lowest % of cancelled trains in the UK. 🚂👇
Graphic in the style of a train ScotRail train station sign with the words: Scotlands trains? Best in the UK. Cancellation rates: Scotland: 2% UK: 3.3% North East England: 4.5%

Free consumer advice. If you are going out for a walk and need to apply Smidge to repel midges/mosquitos etc my strong advice is to apply after you’ve been for a toilet visit & not beforehand. ☄️
