Not sure if Ozzy is cold today or channeling the dark side. "Your hate has made you powerful. Now fulfill your destiny, take your father's place by my side". #starwars #dogsofbluesky #dogs #starwarsquotes
Ozzy the dog in the office today. I think he is feeling the cold with his blanket over his head looking like Senator Palpatine in Star Wars.

How privatisation works (and Thames Water is just the latest example). 1. A government takes a national asset built up with taxpayers' money and the work of public servants over many years, and hands it, for a fraction of its value, to a private company. 2. In doing so, it creates a monopoly. 🧵

Great news that Scotland is reinventing itself here on BlueSky. Let's build the community of all of us who want to see an independent Scotland in the EU, never to be ruled by Tories ever again. We can do this by retweeting and following each other on this #FollowBackFriday

📈 Scotland has seen the second highest growth in employment in the UK this month. 🇪🇺 We were second only to Northern Ireland - which unlike Scotland, has access to the EU single market. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland continues to enjoy a higher employment rate than England.

Scotland’s electricity prices are based on use of gas by England and Wales. Independent, we’d have some of the cheapest electricity in Europe, and profit from supplying it to rUK
