No words required. Explains compliant outpourings since mass euphoria event...

Scotland is fed up with her sons & daughters being sent off to die in illegal & unjust wars for the benefit of English toffs. 👇 This is a sick trick, as old as the Union itself.

Macklemore is speaking out after being dropped from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour, seemingly placing blame on New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, saying that the billionaire rallied other stadium owners to ban him from performing at their venues: “Ed is my friend. I've known him for 13 years.... I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can't change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened [in Gaza]... Ed told me that Robert Kraft called him. We were scheduled to play Gillette Stadium later this month, which is owned by the Kraft Group. Ed told me that Kraft said I would not be allowed to perform in his stadium. Ed also told me that Kraft had rallied some of the other stadium owners and collectively they gave him an ultimatum: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues.... Ed was in a fucked up position. He knew it. His typical apolitical stance was being challenged in a way it never had been before. He told me that the words 'Free Palestine' and the image of the Palestinian flag were hurtful to a lot of people he spoke with. I told him that if those words were more offensive than tens of thousands of Palestinian children being killed by Israel, then there was a fundamental disconnect between where those people stood and where I stood. But he couldn't get past his public facing, 'I don't take sides'.... I hope this isn't the end of my relationship with Ed. Thirteen years of friendship doesn't disappear because of one painful disagreement. I hope we both continue listening, studying what is happening in Palestine and wrestling with what neutrality means in a moment like this. My door will always be open to continuing that conversation.... I didn't need 10 shows from Ed. I needed 2. Two chances to stand in front of 90,000 people and say the words that somehow became too dangerous to say. Free Palestine. But if those words cost me the stage, while turning the conversation back to Palestine, then it was the most successful tour I've ever been on.” variety.com/2026/music/news/…

There are so many like Sarah. A friend in Gaza whose daughter was likewise shot in the head by an Israeli sniper finally got clearance to leave on Sunday, only to be told, along with dozens of other ailing patients, that no one can leave on a Jewish holiday. They deliberately scheduled it on a day they knew was impossible. The pettiness of their sadism is diabolical.

The single most important constitutional trap in the entire Scotland UK debate. 1. The UK’s claim: “The 1707 Union dissolved Scotland and England and created Great Britain.” This is the standard Westminster line. It sounds neat. It sounds authoritative. It sounds final. But it’s not what the Treaty of Union actually says. And it’s not how international treaty law works. 2. The Treaty did not dissolve Scotland or England The Treaty of Union (1706) explicitly states. Scotland remains Scotland England remains England They are “United into One Kingdom” Their distinct laws, institutions, courts, and constitutional traditions continue If Scotland had been dissolved. Scots law would not exist The Kirk would not exist Scottish education would not exist Scottish courts would not exist Scottish constitutional traditions would not exist But all of these continue, because Scotland was not dissolved. This is why constitutional scholars including Sara Salyers always emphasise. The Union created a shared Crown and Parliament, not a single dissolved state. 3. “Great Britain” is the name of the united kingdom not a new sovereign entity This is the part people miss. The Treaty did not create a new sovereign state called “Great Britain” by dissolving the old ones. It created a union state, not a unitary state. A union state is.. two sovereign nations sharing institutions under a treaty retaining their own constitutional identities This is the same model used for.. Sweden–Norway Austria–Hungary Czechoslovakia The United Arab Republic In every case, the nations remained nations. The union was the arrangement. 4. If Scotland had been dissolved, the Treaty would be meaningless A dissolved state cannot.. retain its legal system retain its institutions retain its constitutional traditions retain its sovereignty retain its international personality But Scotland retained all of these. That means Scotland was not dissolved. 5. The UK’s argument collapses under international law Under treaty law. A treaty cannot dissolve a sovereign state unless the treaty explicitly says so. The Treaty of Union does not say Scotland is dissolved. Therefore Scotland remains a sovereign state under international law. The union is a treaty relationship, not a merger. This is why breaches matter. This is why consent matters. This is why the Supreme Court ruling matters. This is why Poll Tax matters. The UK often claims that Scotland and England were “dissolved” and replaced by Great Britain, but that’s not what the Treaty of Union says. The Treaty united the two kingdoms under one Parliament, but it explicitly preserved Scotland’s laws, courts, institutions, and constitutional identity. A dissolved state cannot retain its legal system or institutions. Scotland did. That means Scotland was not dissolved it entered a union. And when a union is repeatedly breached, the treaty becomes voidable. This is the line that lands And internationally is valid. ⚖️☮️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌎🤔

"I don't care that Farage and his buddies are as corrupt as corrupt can get, I'll still support him and will still vote Reform UK" ~ so many dipshits, mostly on X, living in their cultish echo chambers.
