Easing the transition (if I can usually that word) from a social platform run by a multi-billionaire lunatic, over to what I think & hope will be a better environment. Expect the usual sweary rants about politics & especially Scottish independence however!

Totally confident that the #MSM in #Scotland will be asking #AnasSarwar for his take on the #benefitcuts, I mean #welfarereforms proposed by #Labour, as I'm sure he'll be very vocal in his opposition to them! Aye, that'll be fucking right!

The only platform this fucker should have is the one he stands on with a noose round his neck!

There are currently 13 #US military bases in the #UK. If #Trump is not going to use them to support #NATO, get them to fuck! #AmericaFirst

As #Trump & the #USA appear to be siding with #Putin & #Russia, #Europe, the #UK & #Ukraine should form an alliance with #China! Trump would spontaneously combust!

Why is it that a right-wing nutcase is always afforded the last word on #bbcqt?

Can we get #KimLeadbeater to introduce another amendment to the #AssistedDyingBill, to make it quicker & easier to kill off this #Labour Government?

To the 400 highly skilled workers at the #Grangemouth oil refinery who've received redundancy notices, please don't worry as #AnasSarwar has promised to save your jobs using his power & influence in the #Labour Party! Maybe you'll get an even better job with #GBEnergy & £300 off your energy bill!

Here's #BrianLeishman, the #Labour MP for Alloa & #Grangemouth, who was also duped by the lies of #AnasSarwar, who lied about saving the jobs at the Grangemouth oil refinery! He's even more ineffective than his boss! #BBCSundayShow #TheSundayShow

UK devotes a smaller % of its GDP to state pension, pensioner benefits than most developed countries.. 2024-25: Govt spending £137.5bn on the state pension,pensioner benefits, 5.2% of GDP. France spends, 13.5%. Italy, 16.3%. Poverty is a political choice. leftfootforward.org/2025/01/pens...

Pensioner poverty in the world’s sixth largest economy is a political choice
The hardship inflicted on retirees now will surely visit future retirees unless steps are taken to alleviate misery.

I assume that as #Biffa have been allowed to sue the #Scottish Government over the failed #depositreturnscheme, the Scottish Government will also be allowed to sue the #UK Government?

After 7 months, & the only discernible #growth being in #energy costs, consumer goods prices, illegal #immigration, #MP expenses, hypothermic #pensioners, wages of train drivers & the lies of politicians, are the people who voted #Labour now bitterly regretting this #change?

I know what you mean, but as John Swinney said, the prospect of tariffs on whiskey is scary!

Tom Drysdale @tozdee.bsky.social · 12/01/2025
A very clear & confident performance from #JohnSwinney. The epithet 'honest John' given by Opposition Parties, has backfired spectacularly, as it has been clearly demonstrated as being a positive rather than a negative, as they had hoped! #BBCSundayShow #TheSundayShow

Are you being deliberately obtuse? If you are, or alternatively, if you are thicker than Mr. McThick from Thicktown, it's a waste of my valuable time engaging with you!

I'd like to think the more intelligent ones are, but there are still too many children who have been brought up in a toxic environment! Education is key!

They would however have to clear out the self-serving career politicians currently in the Party, & recruit people who are more in tune with the Socialist values of Scotland, which Labour seems to have forgotten!

Tom Drysdale @tozdee.bsky.social · 09/01/2025
Makes perfect sense! I suggested no such thing! I clearly stated that Scotland retains all its resources! The £20bn gap is a nonsense! Your turn!

I note that you appear to have dodged the actual question! Not surprised!

Dear #Labour, can you please send me a copy of your own report that estimated that over 4000 #pensioners will die as a result of freezing this Winter, & especially the removal of the #winterfuelpayment? Particularly as the #MSM is going bananas about the freezing weather in the #UK!
040
Tom Drysdale @tozdee.bsky.social · 09/01/2025
If you actually agree with that figure, can you please explain why Scotland doesn't just keep 100% of its resources, & the generous UK Westminster Government can then add the 12%? This would surely be much more sensible & would actually save money!

#AnasSarwar again regrettably uses a member of the public as a political football! Fucking despicable! #FMQs

Scotland is an uniquely economically illiterate situation. It doesn’t control its resources and economy like any other country & then gets told it survives on a grant of its own money. Now, in reality, reduced. Plus the consequences of a Brexit it didn’t vote for. Absolutely diabolical.

#Labour continues to parrot the mantra that #ScotGov will receive a record high block grant! The reality however, is that this has fallen 2.5% in real terms between 2023-2024 & 2024-2025! #liesdamnedliesandstatistics #smokeandmirrors

I note that the foreign media is being stopped from entering #Tibet to report on the earthquake there, & is instead relying on the #Chinese state reporter! That's ridiculous! It's almost as bad as the #BBC! #BBCBias

So, let me get this right? #AnasSarwar wants the #SNP to get rid of the #twochildbenefitcap that his own Party won't get rid of? Who in fuck's name is taken in by this charlatan?

Is there an agenda in using the #weather in the #UK as a distraction? In all of my 67 years, there has been Winter weather in every single one of them!
