It speaks volumes about the dire state of British politics that an MP can say that she gets mad about seeing Black and Asian people in adverts on TV and she hasn't immediately been expelled from her party - a party that hopes to form the next Govt.

The Observer reports that the Royal Palaces estate contains some 360 properties. So never mind the Royal Lodge Windsor - why are we funding all those castles, palaces, and costly estates? How many does one family actually need?

'Constitution Free Zones' will be introduced to the UK in the form of 'legal zones of exceptional authority'.
The proliferation of deregulated zones is designed to confuse the public and those who research them.

I marvel at the shock people STILL exhibit that Labour are no longer the party of working people. It’s been like that for at least a generation 🙄

Matter of time aye. As folk who still identify as British die off , the younger generations, who increasingly identify as Scottish, will make it the settled will of the people

People of Scotland. You need to think carefully about what you want, then vote SNP 1 and Green 2 in 2026. SNP1&2 lets the yoons in on the list seats. @thesnpmedia.bsky.social @snp.org if you don't understand this, you need to learn fast.

Global Animal Partnership’s labels don’t protect animals and after years of PETA pressure, @aspca.org, @humaneworldorg.bsky.social, and @ciwf.org have stopped propping up this deceptive program 👏🎉

At just a year old, Loretta was trapped at a shady primate dealer, terrified and held for likely shipment to a lab 😔

Within weeks, she was attacked by cage-mates, left hungry, and losing her hair from psychological trauma.

She quickly became a shell of her former self 💔

SNP first, then Green.

Scottish Greens @scottishgreens.org · 3d

A new poll puts us in second place!

With 7 MSPs we delivered free bus travel under 22s, ended peak rail fares, banned new incinerators, increased taxes on the rich, scrapped school meal debt, introduced rent controls, and much more.

Imagine what we could do with double that. 👀

Record poll. Scottish Greens on course for best ever result. Scottish Parliament regional list vote. SNP: 21%. Greens: 16.5%. Reform: 16%. Labour: 15%. Tories: 11%. Lib Dems: 10%.
