Mourning losing my followers at that other, terrible place, so new around here. All things Fisheries/ inshore biology and parenting, pro EU, probably woke- whatever that means….. Scotland, UK.

Q: Are you ordering Hegseth to release that full video?
TRUMP: Whatever he decides is okay with me ... I saw the video. They were trying to turn the boat back to where it could float. And we didn't want to see that because that boat was loaded up with drugs.

Hold my milkshake. Actually no, gimme it back here for a mo…….
Farage arrives in Scotland today, and it should make our collective stomach heave that this repulsive, dangerous extremist has crossed the border. Amid scapegoating schoolkids and allegations of antisemitism anyone who supports this man is morally in the gutter

"Farage in Falkirk? It should make our stomachs heave to have him in Scotland"
Nigel Farage’s Falkirk visit sparks outrage, with many Scots saying his presence north of the border should make “our stomachs heave”.

Damn you all, you’re all missing the point! What do they mean about making it a big issue? Sounds like a threat! What they gonna do about it? May I suggest they get up here to Glasgow to explain? Go on, I dare you.
A: Who gives a fuck apart from racists?
B: His figure is wrong. 71.2% of Glaswegian children speak English as their first language.
C: So that's 28.8% who speak it as a second and I'll bet you they speak brilliant English and that it's much better than most Reform voters I've met online.

@matthew-wright.bsky.social not only do salmon farmers misrepresent their industry, they also take charismatic wrasse fish from the wild to eat the lice that grow on the salmon which are then killed ( along side the salmon of course) at the end of the farming cycle. WATCH THE VIDEO ! 🙏🏻
Write to the Cabinet Secretary at [email protected] to protect wrasse from overexploitation for the salmon aquaculture industry #savewrasse
-End wrasse fishing in marine protected areas
-End wrasse fishing during their spawning season
-Implement a fisheries management plan

You have to be a quite remarkable level of stupidity, to not recognise that ‘getting back to his original MAGA promises’ is precisely what he’s now doing.

In Brexit Britain, this is simultaneously very good & very bad news. Fact fans know it is mostly bad but hope (probably naively) that it might stem the flow of nativist bile dominating discourse. What a time to be alive.
Net migration to the UK is falling rapidly. But how far will it fall? A new, detailed estimate by @jamesbowes01.bsky.social projects net migration in 2026 will be 70K to 170K.
This will have significant consequences, both economic and political.
