David #BothVotesIndy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 1st vote SNP

🐝🐝🐝

Half a million people march in London. A lorry filled with Kit Kats gets stolen. Guess which story got bigger coverage on @BBC6Music news? It was, of course, the lorry. Any explanation @NickyAACampbell @vicderbyshire ?

The BBC are asking a good question- 👇 Why was a £1.5bn Chinese plan to invest in Ardersier blocked? - BBC News share.google/qDrIvHxCk803HT…

Believe in Scotland march today in Edinburgh

@BruceUnfiltered When the government came out with the idiot statement last week about forecourt profiteering, I just sat & shook me head at the blatant hypocrisy of it all The winner is...HM Treasury & if they gave a single solitary fuck they'd waive some tax temporarily Fat fucking chance

@BruceUnfiltered You either pay at the pump or in taxes; public services for the benefit of ppl like the police, education, etc., are not cheap. Of course, Reform would privatise the NHS & force ppl to pay a lot more under a private-insurance-based system.

This is literally complete gibberish. Devolved governments don't run up deficits.

No country in the world has killed more journalists in the last few years than Israel. 253 as of 26th March and now two more.

The Nazis are still alive, cloaked in white and blue...

THEY WANTED REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN… But the Americans are coming out in unprecedented numbers wanting REGIME CHANGE IN AMERICA.

@DaveDooganSNP It's actually grotesque. x.com/i/status/20378…

Did she put the people of #Dumbarton 1st when London Labour ordered a coverup of a Class A nuclear safety incident at #Faslane last year? No..she didn’t. To this day, no comment as to what got into the environment🤷‍♂️ #lochlongradiation #Labourcoverup @CommonsDefence

Stop pretending Orange Order parades are culture instead of what they really are: loud, outdated displays of division dressed up as tradition. Marching bands of bitterness clogging streets with the same old hate, expecting respect they’ve never earned. If your identity needs a parade built on exclusion, maybe it’s not worth celebrating.

Highland jobs sacrificed to protect Humberside jobs. Just remember where most of those turbines will be located.

They got away with this in Gaza. They are getting away with it in Lebanon because the World is allowing them to do so.

@ChildOfAlba .@AnasSarwar are any of these names friends of yours, colleagues even ?? The puppet MSM in #Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, namely the @BBCScotlandNews @STVNews blindly telling #Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 the news stories like they are told to do. #Corruption and #Complicity in all that they both say, and don't.

It takes a man who is utterly secure in his protection by our country’s press to have the gall to talk about the SNP being ‘mired in scandal’ when a whole parade of sex crimes within the Scottish branch office he leads is buried by his press buddies.

India ran the most important cardiovascular study of the 20th century by accident, and then immediately forgot about it. In 1967, Dr. S.L. Malhotra published a study in the British Heart Journal examining heart disease rates among 1.5 million Indian railway employees. The population was extraordinarily useful for research purposes: same employer, same healthcare access, comparable income and working conditions, spread across the entire country. The only meaningful variable was geography. Which meant diet. North Indian railway workers: Punjab, Rajasthan, UP, ate a diet built around ghee and dairy fat. They consumed up to 19 times more fat than their southern counterparts. The fat was primarily saturated: clarified butter, milk fat, the short-chain saturated fatty acids that Ancel Keys had recently been telling the Western world were arterial death. South Indian railway workers ate a diet based on rice, sambar, and seed oils: groundnut oil and sesame oil, primarily. They ate considerably less fat overall. By the standards of dietary advice being formulated in the 1960s, they should have been the healthy ones. Heart disease mortality in South India: 135 per 100,000. Heart disease mortality in North India: 20 per 100,000. Seven times higher in the population eating seed oils. Among railway sweepers specifically, the lowest-paid, most physically active workers, the gap was even wider. Heart disease was fifteen times more common in the South Indian sweeper population than in the North Indian sweeper population. Malhotra controlled for everything he could reach: smoking, where Northerners actually smoked more. Activity levels, where the relationship was inconsistent. Socioeconomic status, where executives died more often than sweepers regardless of region. He found no variable that explained the gap except the type of fat in the diet. He published the data. In a peer-reviewed journal. In 1967. The study was cited periodically, acknowledged as methodologically interesting, and then set aside. The decade in which Malhotra published was the decade in which Ancel Keys's fat hypothesis was being converted into policy. The American Heart Association was issuing guidance recommending polyunsaturated vegetable oils as replacements for saturated animal fats. The food industry was producing seed oils at industrial scale. The infrastructure of seed oil promotion was being built, expensively and with great institutional momentum. A study showing that populations eating animal fat had a fraction of the heart disease of populations eating seed oils was not, in that context, a study that anyone particularly wanted to follow up. Nobody followed up. Almost sixty years later, the finding stands unrefuted in the literature. It is not in the dietary guidelines.
