Social media shouldn't be anonymous. You want to go on a racist rant? Fine - enjoy your freedom to express that opinion but take some fucking responsibility for it, rather than hiding behind a fake name and awful AI slop "patriotic" avatar.

Too many people with authority & influence demand again & again the Palestinians do this & that. The Palestinians are an occupied people. How abt starting with the Israelis commiting to ending occupation? That Israel recognise Palestine's right to exist? Israel are the oppressors.

I’ve worn a grubby RNLI cap for decades. I sound London, but I was born in Truro and I was a basically feral (Gen X) kid wandering the coast path with a dog until sunset for a lot of my early life. The lifeboats are in the fabric like trawlers and farms and pasties and fish and chips.

If you hear certain politicians you would think there are thousands of biological males trying to "cheat" their way into elite women's sports. In reality it's only a very small number. Transitioning is a very long and hard procedure mentally and physically. For a medal in sports? Sure...

Reform are the enemies of Britain. If they take power it will be because racists would happily destroy their own country in order to satisfy their hatred of anyone who is not white. We need to say this more: Reform voters are motivated by race hate and will accept anything to fulfill that hatred

The broken paving on the continuous footway at Dalmeny St / Leith Walk has been repaired with tarmac, undermining the whole design. It now looks like pedestrians and cyclists are crossing a road, rather than drivers crossing a continuous footway.

So creepy and controlling. The lad is 19. He’s an adult. He needs to make mistakes so he learns from them. He needs to cut loose at times. A child, no matter what their age, isn’t a puppet. This will unquestionably damage the parent/child relationship. The mother needs monitoring more than the son

5) If you are complaining about being ‘nearly’ hit by a bike or seeing cyclists run reds, but you’ve never mentioned the 29,000 motor KSIs or endemic speeding & phone driving; you’re not serious about road danger, you're just unfairly othering cyclists as a uniquely law-breaking collective

Imagine if Edinburgh councillors had widespread power to introduce congestion charging and road filtering schemes, and imagine if Labour took power and popped Scott Arthur in as transport convener. Instead of reopening rat runs, what could they have achieved for congestion, job creation & equality
