Starmer increased our drug prices off the back of this. He's saying out loud quite literally that you can't have low prices for drugs because .... profit. His audience lapping it up. I rely on drugs for my bipolar and the UK government make me feel LESS safe.

Nigel Farage spent the weekend having dinner with a suspected paedophile, a sex offender, criminal and an adjudicated rapist.

The faith financial markets have in Trump is proof that wealthy people are not actually smarter than the average Joe.

Labour and Tory parties are certainly full of them given recent headlines. Pam Duncan Glancy is friends with a peadophile yet remains an MP, and Labour did fuck all about it until it blew up down south . It's beyond words

Both BBC and Sky doing reports on this with actual pics of a Tomahawk missile used ONLY by the USA. Both claiming there was an Iranian base next to it and that was the target. Both failing to say out loud that the good ol US of A is a terrorist state and responsible for bombing a school. #fucktrump

Former Rangers season ticket holder here, and the exact reason I left it. I couldn't bring my kids up singing that bile the old firm spew. I go to Killie matches with my daughter now and it's absolutely lovely compared to Ibrox & parkhead.

Better Together pish from 2014. Nothing is faster, better, safer or indeed changed. I don't feel safe in the privatised UK. Sure could use a place like Grangemouth these days eh? Vote for independence in May, lives depend on it 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thought I'd catch up with the "news". You'd think Iran attacked Israel/US if you weren't informed, it's so slanted in Israel's favour I'd class it as propaganda. Whilst the news ticker reports 2 medics killed by Israeli strikes without irony
Sky & BBC indistinguishable in their reporting. Madness

during the oil/gas crisis caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraime it was striking how some right-wingers tried to gaslight the public into believing the *biggest* problem with their soaring bills (at the time) was green levies rather than the oil/gas price going through the roof

And we wonder why fuck all works anymore. Systematic rinsing of the poor since Thatcher. Billionaires shouldn't exist , tax them out of existence and we might start getting somewhere. Then eat them

I vividly remember Israel bombing a school in Gaza and thinking "that'll be the end of it". I assumed the world had some sort of moral compass. But here we go again. The last few years have revealed our political class to be anti human monsters. Twas always the case I suppose

The Welsh Labour Govt is planning to include glass in its deposit return scheme. Yes, the same glass the UK Govt vetoed from the Scottish deposit return scheme using the UK Internal Market Act. How is it that Wales is allowed to include glass but not Scotland?

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.

Israel launches huge strikes against south Beirut after mass evacuation order Residents fled Lebanese capital in panic before assaults on claimed Hezbollah targets while Tehran continues to launch retaliatory attacks

Israeli forces launching massive airstrikes in southern Beirut only hours after issuing an evacuation order for the over 500,000 people living there displays an utter disregard for civilian lives. We saw these patterns in Gaza - it cannot happen again in Lebanon.

By contrast Nicola Sturgeon is held 100% responsible for her husband's alleged actions. Not the case when it's Labour. Reid is bought and paid for by various interests, a detestable politician

We paid an ex-Tory MP to lobby for our fake Chinese firm - and authorities did nothing Investigation finds no rules were broken. It just goes to show how few rules there are.

Last week, UK lobbying regulator closed investigation into ex Tory MP Ben Howlett

We offered Howlett money to work for a fake Chinese investor. He introduced us to a dozen Labour MPs

Regulator didn't even speak to us. Our system is broken

Honestly the collective national level of disdain for Brits living in Dubai on all my social media platforms today really is bringing the UK together as one in a way that's hard to achieve in the modern era.

No more illegal wars. Introduce a prevention of military intervention act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy. Review all UK arms sales and make us a force for international peace and justice.

No more illegal wars. Introduce a prevention of military intervention act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy. Review all UK arms sales and make us a force for international peace and justice.

The majority of people in this country do not want us to be involved in this war.

Keir Starmer of a few years ago wouldn't have supported this war.

The only reason he does now is he will do anything Donald Trump wants - and it makes us all less safe.

"Unquestionably blindly following the Americans is, in my view, the wrong thing to do.. I'd pass legislation that said military action could be taken if.. the lawful case for it was made.. there was a viable objective &.. you got consent of the commons"

When's the vote, Keir?

Really concerned to hear the Defence Secretary refuse to rule out UK's involvement in future strikes on Iran.

Iraq lessons must be learned.
Further escalation in the Middle East makes us all less safe.

Starmer must rule out UK involvement immediately.
