I don't understand how unionist types can defend this. The system is rigged against the "lower "classes of which I'm proudly a part. Energy companies make multiple billions every year. We never discuss them taking the hit. The UK is a bust flush. Onwards to the republic of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We’re opening new GP walk-in centres across Scotland, staffed by doctors and nurses, and you won't need an appointment.

Open from 12 to 8, 7 days a week, so you can get the care you need at a time that works for you.

Graphic with headline text “New GP Walk-In Centres.” Subtext reads “You can see a doctor without rushing to get an appointment.” Background image shows a stethoscope on a desk. SNP and Scottish flag logos appear at the bottom.

Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?
