Somehow I don’t think it’s worth me holding my breath for a massive injection of money, staff, and facilities into Scotland’s palliative care sector. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Into organised labour, mountains, motorbikes, music, list of interests keep growing. Internationalist. Bothered (a lot) by climate change. Views all my fault

One of my daughter’s football team was playing over in Falkirk today. Behind us was Grangemouth, the site of another act of industrial vandalism by the UK and Scottish Governments. A plague on both those houses.
BTW - our team, Dumbarton Women’s FC, won 6-1.

RMT leader Eddie Dempsey: It’s hard not to feel disenfranchised right now. Forget ‘wedge issues’, the number one issues for everybody are class issues. Housing and living standards, health and education, “don’t let social media fool you.” holyrood.com/inside-politic…

It is an outrage how the Scottish Government has neglected our institutions of working class history.
Whether it’s the People’s Palace in Glasgow or the People’s History Museum in Edinburgh, the consistent message is that working class stories are not worth telling.

@NiallChristie1 Just checking - you’re no longer a member of the Green Party?

Very disappointing to read this from Jim.
In setting up Your Party Scotland we’ve been clear we must all work together to offer the genuine alternative we all want to see.
Attacks like this on leading figures in our movement help nobody.

Two things I disagree with here 1. I dont consider Zarah Sultana to be a co founder of YP. She joined late after many people had been building the new party for some time 2. I dont want her to be part of the CEC. She is a destructive presence and wouldn't play a constructive role

Isn’t it strange how the mainstream media never cover the successes of socialism? Well, not really. Here’s a short feature on how a small Caribbean island, subjected to a US economic blockage for over 50 years, still shines in scientific innovation. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/social…

Offshore workers are constantly let down by governments delivering nothing but hot air as opportunities for public investment in the sector breeze right past politicians.

About time that the corrupt, cash for access lobbyists linked to Labour are put under scrutiny. Mandelson taught them all they know. opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-…

The Israeli state seemingly doesn’t like the idea of a global union federation meeting Palestinian workers. I wonder why?
BWI Global Union@BWIglobal
Israel barred BWI and global construction union leaders from entering the West Bank to meet Palestinian workers. This is not incidental. this is exclusion, control, and silencing of workers in action. Read our press release: bwint.org/BwiNews/NewsDe…

Life affirming stuff - watching musicians at the top of their craft @ccfest. Six amazing guitarists played. Pictured are JP Cormier (Canada), Danny Bradley (Planet Zog), and the wonderful Anna Massie (Scotland).

Just one of the reasons I struggle so much with the “An independent Scotland in Europe” line: “The overwhelming majority of states in Europe consider Nato and the EU to be the twin pillars of European security. So, not really independent. heraldscotland.com/politics/westm…

@STN_Airport - I see you’ve got the nice new scanner but not enough staff to operate more than 60% of them at peak hours (I counted). Employ more staff.
