Just a reminder that Ian Murray was hours away from joining Change UK because of Corbyn's leadership. Below he is photoed with them, practicing his resignation before u-turning.

If Sarwar can't even win over a back-stabbing opportunist like him against Starmer, then who can Sarwar convince?

Scotland has not had a full-term Prime Minister since voting No in 2014.

"Strong and stable"

Blair and Bush have a higher death count (so far) than Trump. A war criminal is still a war criminal.

I can already see Keir Starmer's statement.

1) "We are closely monitoring the situation..."

2) "Maduro is very bad though!"

3) Vaguely gestures towards international law

4) Will refuse to condemn Trump's illegal actions

Now ask the SNP what they do and say behind closed doors.

Donald Trump awarded controversial Fifa Peace Prize at World Cup draw The US president, who was beaten to the Nobel Peace Prize by Venezuelan democracy campaigner Maria Corina Machado, was presented with Fifa’s hastily arranged new award

I stress "further" because many have been trying to do this for decades. It's just a lot more obvious more recently

Donald Trump winning a "peace prize" at the world cup draw and Israel being allowed to compete in Eurovision are not separate from each other. They're part of a broader movement to further normalise and reward authoritarianism and genocide.

"calmed down" is such a patronising way to talk about voters fed up with austerity. Just completely out of touch journalism

Absolutely incredible that Paul Hutcheon doesn't give a single mention to the charities and women's rights groups who have lobbied to scrap the benefit cap and rape clause. He gives all credit to Anas Sarwar and Labour.

It tells you that Labour only listen to themselves.

Poundland was one, if not THE, last places where you could get an actual Β£3 meal deal. Not Β£3.99 or Β£4.50 without a club card. Just Β£3. They've now removed it entirely.

If Scotland doesn't declare UDI right now I will scream.

it’s cool how they made a political podcast with the selling point of having all women hosts to counteract the usual male-dominated offerings, and they’re all white woman who have zero concept of intersectionality

Scottish parliament exchange between Swinney and the Bam Pot, John Masson β€œUnborn Babies (Healthcare)
John Mason (Glasgow Shettleston) (Ind)
Share
Given the emphasis on healthcare in the report by the abortion law expert group that came out last Friday, can the First Minister give an assurance that the health of all unborn babies, wanted or not, will be at the centre of the Government's thinking?
The First Minister (John Swinney)
Share
I recognise that this is a sensitive issue. In 2023-24, the Government committed to undertaking a review of the legislation on abortion. The recommendations in the report are those of the expert group, and the Government fulfilled its commitment to publish those recommendations.
We will, of course, give consideration to these issues, but that will have to involve extensive engagement with a broad range of stakeholders. The legitimate point that Mr Mason has raised will have to be central to the analysis of the issue, along with a range of other matters that will have to be considered in relation to any future actions that the Government may decide to take at some stage in the future.

Every time I think I might just manage to hold my nose and vote SNP, Swinney reminds me that he can’t be trusted. Not with education and DEFINITELY not with women’s fundamental right to healthcare and freedom. I’m a Green Party member but unlikely to have a constituency candidate 😭

Conservatism is about begging you to think of poor private school kids, while decrying a fairly meagre state school breakfast club program as unacceptable waste, communism, abdication of parental responsibility, etc.

For Shabana Mahmood to attack some of the most cruelly treated people in the world as having won a "golden ticket" because they manage to get to and claim asylum in Britain is unforgiveable.

A new, far right, low for which I can think of no precedent, by any UK Government.

Actually before I go, were you okay with Corbyn and his socially conservative lads releasing statements on Twitter to undermine Zarah? And if not, do you think Corbyn should step away from YP leadership?

You were making this about my personal values, so I gave an example of something I'm proud about. If that makes you uncomfortable because Corbyn's pandering to Adnan is terrible, then I can only hope you find some sort of peace with that lol. Enjoy your day!

Jeremy Corbyn literally tried to convince Adnan to stay with the other socially conservative MPs for the sake of his lads group of MPs. The level of hypocrisy is off the scales lol

"I'm joining up for the express purposes of kicking them out, and we don't succeed I won't be involved"

You know what? Fair enough. And I'm the same in the Greens, regardless of what position transphobes are in. Because I'm at least consistent :)

I'm going to assume you have zero proof that I'm fine with transphobes in the Greens. Because I'm not, as I fight it in every single circle I'm active in. The simple difference between us is I treat YP and the Greens consistently, you don't based purely on vibes
