Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.
We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

a) "Once in a generation" wasn't said by the SNP and wasn't their policy - it was a campaign comment by Alex Salmond to encourage people to get out and vote.

“Oh, thank you, imperial master. Grovelling thanks for sharing your hard-earned cash.” Did Rachel Reeves expect this when she announced some of Scotland's taxes will be sent back north? Actually that budget pop at the SNP is a sure sign of Labour nerves.

London: 7°C - Pitlochry: -2°C
Yet the person freezing in Pitlochry pays more for electricity — electricity generated in their own town.
Meanwhile, London, which produces almost none, pays less.
This isn’t just unfair. It’s exploitation. And it’s happening in Scotland every single day.

Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.
He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.

All they're after isthe money - and to hell with the "side effects" or the future for the next generations 😡
Yet another manifesto commitment watered down by Labour.
The climate crisis worsens every year, but the government continues to retreat.
Instead of action we see climbdowns, u-turns and backtracking. All while the world's biggest polluters celebrate and rake in the profit.

On no account can Scotland allow the Scottish NHS to go down the same route, although if WM are "saving" money in doing what they're doing the Scottish funding will be reduced accordingly which will not help.
"Already, England has privatised much of the NHS. Indeed, my colleagues down south consider that NHS England is too far gone to bring it back under public ownership."
