Zen Hen. UK is the itchiest woolie ever knitted #Democracy #independence Maitland Cllr @theSNP 🎥 🪴🪻
Seen this 1st hand and it's repeated across the country. Ours, ex Cllrs, had a data scraping campaign on pot holes. All over FB/media deliberately confusing council/reserved areas while ignoring their decisions actions as our MPs like closing Grangemouth, genocide, Austerity

“Any law I vote for potentially criminalises a constituent,” he said. As though criminalising a journalist for writing opinions is just a part of his job.
Stop arming Israel.
The appalling scenes in Gaza are unrelenting. The UK will pull every lever we have to get food and lifesaving support to Palestinians, and we will evacuate children who need urgent medical assistance. This humanitarian catastrophe must end.
And he seems to have responded with this classic example of managed dissent - the Labour whips let MPs call for the government to recognise Palestine, but not for it to ban US weapons transfers to Israel from the Cyprus bases, or end British arms exports:
I have joined 220 of my MP colleagues in urging the government to recognise Palestine as a state. The scenes were are witnessing from Gaza are intolerable. The violence and suffering must end. In my view, the time has come for the UK to recognise Palestine.
He's just taking the piss out of the Labour movement at this point.
The letter states ‘incidents’ but the table refers to leakages so perhaps it isn’t ’pollution incidents’ but incidents of leakages. Very bizarre hole to dig and defend privatisation
The problem is @SteveReedMP said “pollution levels are worse in Scotland” which implies concentrations but have provided ‘incidents’ per 10,000km of pipe and the % of EDMs fitted. This doesn’t mean pollution is worse.
OFFICIAL: The SNP are managing water pollution in Scotland even worse than the Tories did in England👇🏼
It’s very simple change rules. If you have had a donation in last 3 years from an associated industry or group you can’t be a minister for that area. Streeting would be banned from any healthcare position for 3 years.Can’t be influenced as a result. Nobody gives money for nothing
As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications This should also be banned Influence being bought in Govt Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy
He’s visiting his own golf course at taxpayer expense.
President Trump is on the way to Turnberry, Scotland. This man never stops working for the American people!
The UK must join France, alongside 147 other countries, and recognise the State of Palestine. You can not support a two-state solution without recognising both states. Prime Minister, do the right thing and recognise the State of Palestine, and do it now.

Had my MP @ChrisMurrayMP at the door. I told him I’d just had to ask my publisher if they can redact a line of my book because of his vote to proscribe Palestine Action. He said he “didn’t want to talk about that”.
Three things struck me about the encounter: 1) he was very keen to talk about local council issues, not the national/international issues which are an MPs job. I pointed out the leader of the council is our cllr, and we can take those up with her.
American beef in Australia is like sending instant coffee to Italy. Who in Australia would want this?
Tomorrow's front page📰 Convicted US felon to arrive in Scotland
The U.K. should follow the example of France tonight and recognise the State of Palestine. This is essential for peace. The ceasefire and humanitarian aid must start now.
I welcome the announcement by President Macron that 🇫🇷 will recognise 🇵🇸 in September. This is an important contribution towards implementing the two State solution, which offers the only lasting basis for peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
Good morning, you might want to know it's raining in Ayrshire 🌧️ 🍊
The visit of Donald Trump will require the biggest police operation in Scotland since the death of Queen Elizabeth, Police Scotland has said. It’s a personal visit to his golf courses, so why are we, the Scottish taxpayers having to pay for his protection? Send Trump the bill…
