At what point do we stop pretending our newspapers are ‘news’ and start calling them what they are… Promotional pamphlets for the billionaires who own them and the agendas they’re selling.

It looks like there are a lot of Scots Indy supporters on X who dislike the SNP for various reasons. The SNP at this point are the only party capable of achieving our goal & when Independence is finally won they will be free to vote for whichever Scottish party they choose.

This makes me feel patriotic for a country I’ve never been part of. 🌷 André Rieu - Highland Cathedral 🌷

@Old_But_Gold50s Should be the national anthem of an independent Scotland.

🇵🇱🇪🇺 Poland's FM just told the entire male diplomatic establishment that Kaja Kallas has bigger balls than them. Kallas, EU foreign policy chief, just said stop begging Russia to talk to us. We're embarrassing ourselves. European diplomacy just entered its final form and it's incredible.

'I can't see what Scotland gains now from continuing to be part of this mess' George Monbiot speaks to The National Podcast about Scottish independence

Bravo George Monbiot: x.com/ScotNational/s… Saying what all self-respecting, independently minded Scots already know.

Microsoft even disabled the ICC Chief prosecutor Karim Khan and his team's email accounts on behalf of Israel. Francesca Albanese was cut off from all her bank accounts; unable to open new ones or use/ get credit cards. When you confront them, they will come at you for everything, from every angle— to discredit and silence you. They control the banking systems through which money flows globally, whether through financial institutions or intermediaries like Stripe. When the US sanctioned Albanese last year, it wasn't just her money that was frozen— her hotel bookings were cancelled, her health insurance refused to reimburse her, she couldn't even use most apps. Even the Christmas gifts her 13-year-old daughter received were sanctioned. And she was reprimanded only after she began focusing her attention on the powerful American corporations complicit in funding and enabling the genocide in Gaza. She wrote letters to 48 companies, universities and financial institutions notifying them that they were complicit in and profiting from a genocide— the Trump Administration instantly moved to punish her. They have infiltrated and can manipulate every facet of your existence in ways beyond your wildest imagination. They will try to exploit every component of your life in order to make it work against you. Remain cognizant of this in every aspect of what you think is your *private* life. They don't just control the weapons that kill, but the algorithms on your phone that can be used to dictate your life as well.

The UK government must ACT NOW and: • Condemn the Israeli Navy’s illegal actions against the Flotilla • Demand the safety and release of all British Citizens involved in this mission • Stop all arms exports to Israel immediately • Do everything in its power to end this ongoing genocide

🇵🇸 🇪🇸 Following their 1–0 victory over RC Strasbourg Alsace in the UEFA Conference League semi-final first leg on Thursday, players for Spanish professional football club Rayo Vallecano, dedicated the historic win to the Palestinian people, celebrating with a Palestinian flag in front of fans at the Estadio de Vallecas. The gesture reflects a long-standing tradition among supporters of Rayo Vallecano, the Madrid club based in the working-class neighborhood of Vallecas—particularly the Bukaneros ultras group, known for its anti-fascist and left-wing political stance. Fans at a recent match unfurled a massive Palestinian flag and displayed a tifo reading, “No one can occupy the root of a dream.” After the game today, supporters were heard chanting, “Whoever doesn’t dance is Netanyahu.” The victory puts Rayo Vallecano one step away from the first European final in the club’s history.

Nigel Farage secretly accepting a FIVE MILLION POUNDS gift from a Thai-based crypto tycoon is one of the biggest political financial scandals of this or any era. Farage, for himself not the many. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

They were not intercepted. They were abducted in international waters. This is piracy - and is a flagrant violation of international law.

The anti-Semitic attacks over the last month are evil and inexcusable. My thoughts are with the victims of yesterday’s stabbing. Equally, for political figures to use them as an excuse to crackdown on lawful protest against Netanyahu’s assault on Gaza - without concrete evidence of a direct link - is opportunistic and irresponsible.

It is wild that the EU demands respect for international maritime laws to open the Strait of Hormuz, while remaining completely silent about the kidnapping of EU citizens in international waters trying to deliver food to the starving people of Gaza.

"Disingenuous" doesn't even begin to cover this which just went out on @SkyNews 👇even by Braverman's already stratospheric standards Ridge : Why didn't Farage declare the £5 million donation ? Parliamentary rules say new MPs have to declare 𝐚𝐥𝐥 registrable benefits in the 12 months before being elected Braverman : Are you suggesting Farage should go around without security - do you want to get him killed ? (basically) 👏@SophyRidgeSky for keeping cool (despite hay fever and said disingenuousness) and repeatedly not letting her get away with it

Not for the first fucking time, Reform don’t know what they’re talking about. Foreign students are not entitled to student loans. You utter idiots.

@FrazJackson @AnasSarwar @ScottishLabour You were only 4 yrs old when Jackie Baillie became an MSP. Dumbarton needs a change. The route to doing that is to vote @Sophie_Traynor SNP.

Hello dear fans :) Today is my birthday, so I’d like to gift this incredible song to all of you and to myself. 🎸🎁
