#Fairford One theory is that those arrested were acting, in a diesel theft scam, in concert with US military personnel. To progress enquiries, Gloucestershire police would like to interview a M/Sgt Ernest Bilko. (One for the kids, there😉)

Slowly then all at once: this emboldened Celtic alliance could spell the end of the UK | Simon Jenkins
It’s something akin to a quiet earthquake: home nations jointly declaring their wish to be freed from English domination. A big move needs a big response, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

It's definitely NOT Passport to Pimlico! Why some of the people so often named as instigators of right wing "activism" are allowed/enabled/empowered by the "media" without outright condemnation and public prosecution is beyond me. Says much about this "United" kingdom. Sickening

1/4 Morning everyone. Here are some factoids to help us fight the "two-tier" donations narrative pushed by parties whose two massive crypto donors account for 80% of their funding. An example: ⬇️

Interesting here from @hopenothate.org.uk in relation to the fascist mobilisations that occurred over the weekend. If a charity can raise the alarm within hours and act in response to fascist street mobilisation, then why can't the cops? Why can't the Home Secretary? Why can't the Prime Minister?

The prospect of such a fascist paramilitary group refining its 'storm' tactics AND arming itself should focus the minds of the UK Government and security services. At this sort of scale, an armed 'storm' action would be beyond police - even specialist counter-terrorism units - ability to deal with.

Your average energy bill is actually increasing by 16% from Oct not 4% as claimed. Why , because they lowered the average , therefore the base line is lower. We have the energy but need the power , are you YES yet? #Yes #indy #indyref #snp

A message for the quisling BBC Scotland, artists in both propaganda by omission and by exception.
I look forward to the BBC doing a programme about Manchester, as they did with Glasgow. Here are some facts they can use.
Overall Crime Rate:
Manchester's Crime Rate: 143 crimes per 1k
residents (2025 Home Office data). The violent crime rate is 52 per 1k residents.
Glasgow's Crime Rate: 85 crimes per 1k
residents (2025-26 Scottish Government data). The violent crime rate is 20 per 1k residents (GCC).
CONCLUSION: Manchester's crime rate is 68% higher and its violent crime is 62% higher than Glasgow's.
Public perception data shows Manchester with a "High" crime index (64.72) and Glasgow with a "Moderate" index (51.24). Compared to Glasgow, more locals in Manchester feel crime is increasing.

The proof is in the fact that computers are now unaffordable, just so they can use the money from the fake unavailability scam to fund building AI in the first place. This is how bad the scam is before it has even started.

Thread; One of the reasons they want us to stay in the corrupt Union. They strip our assets & we sit on our hands. The £3.4bn energy highway refers to Eastern Green Link 2 (EGL2), a subsea & underground electricity transmission project in the UK. Approved by Ofgem, this high-voltage "superhighway".

OK, Monica. Put your word to the test and don't hide behind a PM.
“I want to be clear to be clear to people like Daniel, that if there’s a pro-independence majority - I hope that there isn’t - but if there is in the future then I give him my word that it will be for the people of Scotland to decide that. I won’t hide behind Boris Johnson or any Prime Minister. It should be a matter for Scotland. That’s what the question’s about. If people in Scotland want a referendum, should they be able to have one? Yes, they should. “
Monica Lennon, Scottish Labour Leadership Debate, BBC, 2021The SNP has won 83% of Holyrood’s constituency seats, with more MSPs than all the unionist parties combined. The SNP and Scottish Greens together hold 73 seats, a record pro-indy majority. If that’s not a mandate to hold an independence referendum, what is?

I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.

🧵 1/ After another week of reporting on Nigel Farage and Reform UK’s finances, I still have major questions about who is actually funding them, and whether it was properly declared. Farage and his cronies have responded with bluster and mudslinging. So let's look at the actual facts.

Its actually quite sad that it's Farage's avaricious financial acquisitive tendencies that may bring his downfall, rather than his lack of humanity and empathy for others. Reform UK, and its other right wing, grifting offshoots are a cancer which infects the vulnerable.
