Westminster has failed Scotland.

We need to show that independence would make a real difference to people’s lives, contrasting that with the chaos and mismanagement of Westminster.

Our movement is building a positive case for an independent Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

That whole idea of distancing ourselves from Europe on the assumption we’d be best buddies with the United States was really, really clever, wasn’t it?

If the US did decide to invade Greenland, it will be great for Putin, imagine Europe spreading it's resources between helping Ukraine and Greenland.
Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen declared: "If we have to choose between the United States and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO, the Kingdom of Denmark, and the EU."

Some Grok users, mostly men, began to demand to see bruising on the bodies of the women, and for blood to be added to the images. Requests to show women tied up and gagged were instantly granted.

Accounts? Sure. People? No.
I just don't buy that there are 19 million Twitter users in the country - and 5m of those using it as their primary news source.

That'd be roughly 1/3 adults (and 1/13 using it as a primary news source) and, well, I simply don't see this as being credible.

It says so much about Brexit Britain that leader of the Greens, @zackpolanski.bsky.social, has to say: "I think we need to make racism unacceptable again"

Among the many problems with Labour doing all it can to appease racists (and ignoring all the ethical problems) is that (a) the more you give in to them, the more they demand; (b) so many voters are too dim to understand when they’ve got what they wanted.

Isnt it funny how just pointing out the mere possibility of racial bias existing in the was people are reacting to recent events instantly gets read as an attempt to "sow discord"

Almost as if some people are biased to view a certain group negatively 🤔

Apparently Black people have never been publicly lynched with forensic level documentation ever, let alone always.
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.

I have to get off this app tonight because I swear if I read one more time that what happened today was not what this country is about, I’m going to scream. This is absolutely what this country has ALWAYS been about. It’s always been violent and cruel.

The thing is ICE has killed multiple people this past year, but it wasnt seen as a problem at large because they were all Black and brown people.

ICE killing people didnt become a major issue until it was a white person.
I'm sorry, but I just think it's very telling when we differentiate between ICE's killing of American citizens versus undocumented immigrants. And I'm seeing that a lot right now.
