A majority in the Scottish Parliament has just backed our call to devolve energy powers to Scotland. We can’t afford being tied to the failed policies at Westminster. Scotland’s energy should work for Scotland - with the powers we need to help bring people’s bills down.

"Independence must be the mission of this SNP government. The people have done their part. They voted. They returned a parliament with independence at its heart. John Swinney now stands at one of those rare moments where mandate, cause and opportunity align. They rarely come twice."

Reform is a gimmick… what happens once they ‘reform’ whatever it is they have to reform? Will they change it to Reformed? Scotland have been led up the garden path with Indy already, and England with Brexit. Open your fucking eyes… they are not for you, they are for whoever pays them the most.

By now, 12 years after the referendum, Scotland could have been a successfully independent country in the EU, trading & engaging with rest of the world on equal terms, and governed by a coalition of new and old parties focussed on Scotland's welfare and future. Instead we're shackled to this . . ☹️☹️

This is outrageous. Just after Trump announced his sham ceasefire, Israel bombed an ambulance workers funeral in South Lebanon. Channel 4 News was there and captured everything. Israel does NOT want peace. It wants to keep committing genocide and stealing other people’s land.

Reform represents a national security threat. They’ve sold out to malign foreign powers - Russia, Trump’s America and Orban’s Hungary… sharing populist disinformation to whip up discontent at home. They should be fully investigated and banned from public life.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
News Team,
Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier.
I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity.
Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.
We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed
to kill the story.
If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, wehave effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient.
If the standard for airing a story becomes
"the government must agree to be
interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast.
We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state.
These men risked their lives to speak with us.
We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their
stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.
CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones.We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it.
When it fails to air without a credible
explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet.
I care too much about this broadcast to watch
it be dismantled without a fight.
Sharyn
