Maybe someone could explain to the US President the difference between windmills and turbines. And why we need the latter in Scotland.
The world is ablaze literally and metaphorically and the so called "leader of the free world" is playing golf!
If you want Michelle Mone removed from the House of Lords and repay the £136,000,000 owed to taxpayers, please RT!
Really don't need lectures on immigration from a President who uses masked thugs to haul people from the street.
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
Apparently the "time is not right" to recognise the state of Palestine. Perhaps not enough babies and children have died.
The final insult would be if we have to pick up the tab for policing Trump's visit not to mention the huge swathe of metal fencing.
Have to say that Finnie, the new Commonwealth Games mascot, is a bit of a mish mash. Saw a Clyde, the 2104 one, the other day. Much cleaner lines.
Does Israel believe all these pix of starving children have been photoshopped? Where is the compassion from a nation which knows better than most what serial deprivation means?
Israel needs to be stopped. They have squeezed the remaining population into 12% of Gaza. They are murdering starving people queuing for food with white flags. They are sending in armoured demolition companies to destroy every single building in Gaza. They have murdered…
This vile, hateful ghoul says people aren’t saving enough for retirement then votes to cut the income of working people with disabilities. They can’t afford to save so she makes it worse. Then blames them. Pure evil.
The work and pensions secretary has announced a review of the state pension age, explaining that almost half of the working age population isn't saving anything for their retirement Full story ➡️ trib.al/OMEm1Or
Unlike the Trump presidency the Obama one was utterly scandal free. Must irritate the hell out of DJT.
Then again, they need Israeli permission to use their erstwhile aid stations - so far they're banned.
BREAKING: The IDF has released footage from inside Gaza showing thousands of pallets of aid just sitting there, waiting to be picked up by the UN. So why is the UN demanding more aid trucks enter—when they haven’t even distributed what’s already there?
Everyone who can should read consultant surgeon Nick Maynard's account of his work in Nasser hospital in southern Gaza - most especially the UK PM and his cabinet. And meanwhile we merely watch this tragedy unfold. It's in today's Guardian.
More than 100 aid organisations on Wednesday warned that "mass starvation" is spreading across the Gaza Strip as Israel faces mounting international pressure over its aid blockade thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2025…
How shaming for the UK one of the richest administrations in the world to cut aid to the poorest and most vulnerable.
100 aid agencies say famine is spreading in Gaza. Israel dismisses their views as propaganda. I know which account is the more believable.
