“55-65% of <34s, c50% of <54s and 40% of >55s with the latter climbing steadily now for 13 years. All three groups way up on 2014.

“Support for independence in this survey is well above that in… privately run polls, with samples weighted to match the 2014 result, and… get a ‘No’ majority.”

"They know that in a functioning one-person-one-vote democracy, they could never pass the unpopular self-enriching policies they want. So they know they must focus on preserving and expanding the precedents that permit them to buy American democracy."

I thought they said it was wrong for an administration to ask a social media platform to take stuff down.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

They're nothing if not predictable. 😂

Dominionists believe God rewards & punishes the nation based on our collective behavior, so watch them blame the Naked Bike Ride for all sorts of disasters.

They also believe they're in a spiritual war w demons.

That's why Wee Moses Johnson is is so upset.

I don't think people appreciate that this regime is run by a bunch of extremist Christian fundamentalists. A naked bike ride is a perfect response to their dominionist agenda. And believe me, they are going to lose their shit over it!

Magnetic Resonance Imaging saved my life.

It was invented by a team in Aberdeen, Scotland.

Work on home of UK's 'most powerful' MRI scanner starts

It is hoped the centre will deliver the most detailed scans ever seen in the UK.

Labour isn't working for anyone except big business and the super rich.

Kevin Stewart SNP @kevinstewartsnp.bsky.social · 19h

If Labour don’t reform the Energy Profits Levy then even more jobs will go.

They must listen to industry, the unions and workers and do the right thing.

On the centenary of Thatcher's birth, there have been predictable calls for a memorial to her memory. But Britain's 2300 food banks serve that purpose already.

"The main actors of the genocide will have to answer to justice."

Spain’s PM Pedro Sanchez says the ceasefire deal ending Israel's war on Gaza should not mean Israel’s conduct should be forgotten, saying “there cannot be impunity”.
