They told us we were too poor… while draining us of oil, power, and profit. Jim Eadie lays it out clearly: Scotland was never too small. It was too useful — to a system built to benefit London. From energy to industry, our wealth was siphoned away… while communities were left to crumble.👇

The BBC cancelling Winterwatch is such a shame, especially when we need to be connecting with nature more than ever. If we want people to protect our wildlife, we have to show them it! Add your name to ask the BBC to reconsider. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Tell the BBC: Save Winterwatch!
The UK is losing its wildlife, and shows like Winterwatch are vital for connecting us to nature. The BBC's decision to cancel it makes no sense. Let's ask them to rethink this! Add your name here:

There are, in my view, 25 things everyone needs to understand in light of recent events: 1) Those out in our communities last night were not protestors, but organised far right extremists. 2) Their actions align with fascist ideologies. 3) So yes: these are fascist practices on our streets. 🧵

Alina Burns, 19, of Lynton Road in Bristol, admitted attempting to murder Mohammed Mahmoodi, outside a barber's shop in Bristol. Burns approached Mahmoodi from behind and swung the axe at his neck. He was able to wrestle the weapon away from her before she could strike him again.

I wrote this poem the day after Renee Good was murdered - it’s about how the media and politicians immediately dehumanised her. I have had a few people ask “who wrote it?” So I am putting it up again - written in anger
Media Notes for Justification of the Orphan Makers Do not be quick to put the boot in Those accused of shooting
A peaceful mother in the face (three times)
Her demise may well be justified
Our population now is radicalised have you noticed how women often fail To even obey the voices of the male?)
And this was no run of the mill "mum"
She was a deviant one
A lesbian
And we cannot dismiss
How the sapphic can put men with pistols
Into a panic
She may not have committed the sin of being brown
But her profile page declared a pronoun!
A typical trait
of an enemy of the state
But wait
A little more
She called herself a "poet" too
And women like that are often shrews To take language and create a rhythm Another clue to domestic terrorism
So I say again
From autocue to you
The world is surely a better place
If we shoot love and peace and protest in the face

As I (and thousands of other people) predicted, Labour's non-deal with the USA wasn't worth the paper it isn't printed on. Starmer set Britain up to be Trump's chew toy. Absolutely catastrophic to have traded our EU membership for this turbocharged farce. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...
