Since the referendum in 2014 I’ve been banging on that the BBC’s superpower is ‘bias by omission’. Do you honestly believe the BBC you so cherish has given their viewers a clear picture of what has been done to the Palestinians? From 1948 on, never mind the current genocide.
George Orwell worked for the BBC for 2 years and didn’t particularly enjoy it. But at the end he told his boss that no one had ever asked him to broadcast anything he didn’t believe. I’ve now worked for it for 60 years, and can honestly say exactly the same thing.

The @ScotTories have gone from "Scotland should lead the UK" to "We will strip you of powers". Thank you for the additional evidence that Scotland is a colony. @UN @LiberationScot

If you had maybe delivered what was promised rather than gloat and take it as free licence to do as you please with Scotland with no consequences. As we all awoke on the morning after we were greeted by English Votes for English Laws then shortly after Brexit. Get fucked!!
Referendums should be final and the SNP have never been able to respect that.

I'm old enough to remember being called an Antisemite for calling Gaza the worlds largest prison and a concentration camp. Now Israel admits it.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: Today Gaza has become the largest prison in the world. This happened because of the hypocrisy of Egypt.

If ever we needed evidence that Scotland is indeed a colony this is it!
This should be front and centre of every news story on BBC Scotland and STV. A Parliament voted for by around 70% of Scotland’s electorate is at risk of having some of its powers removed by a Party rejected by Scots for over 70 years. It should be the major headline but it won’t.

Is this Pooling or Sharing? 😃
A 'Better Together' dogs dinner. The bottom line is that England-as-UK hasn't the money to ape Israel's 'Iron Dome'. And there's nae defensive interceptors for Scotland.

Never forget the English mayor said this about the Ukraine but it doesn't apply to Scotland apparently:

This is the man who promised, yet again 🙄, that he would not join the House of Lords (which he wants to abolish apparently) if he lost the election. He delivered Labour’s worst result ever. Now he wants us to celebrate a completely insignificant trade deal with a fascist.

Scottish Labour and Anas Sarwar summed up in two videos. Sarwar first describes the House of Lords as unacceptable and calls for it to be abolished. When voters reject him he grabs the opportunity to become a member. Scottish Labour is a gravy train for self-serving charlatans. Never, ever vote for it. Never, ever believe what Scottish Labour politicians say.

'Scottish participation in the British Empire tells us what particular Scots did within the imperial system. It does not tell us who possessed sovereignty over that system. The real historical question is: Under whose sovereign authority were these Scots born individuals acting?'
The real historical question isn't: Were some Scots involved? They were, and in the case of absentee slave-owners it was around 0.2% of the Scottish population. The question is: Under whose sovereign authority were these Scots born individuals acting?
Article

Participation Isn't Sovereignty: Scots, Slavery and the British Empire

There’s a peculiar argument circulating whenever Scotland's constitutional history is discussed that seems to be articulated by both so called ‘Unionists’, as well as performative ‘liberal

@bbcscotland #bbcdn rejoicing at #Glasgow getting trashed . Shocking @snp didn’t put a Glasgow MSP on panel to address this anti Glasgow diatribe. @ScottishLabour failed to build houses and it was a slum!

Rotten to the core #VoteGreen
Just been sent this by my aunt who lives in Camden. Labour are sending their canvassers out to LIE about when the by-election vote is being held to old and vulnerable Green voters. This is deeply shocking. @UKLabour @ElectoralCommUK

On July 15th, Andy Burnham accepted a £25,000 donation from Brentford FC co-owner Gary Lubner. Five days later, he was Prime Minister. The money was earmarked for a Burnham “leadership campaign”.

We have had several referendums on whether the scottish tories should be in power, Murdo himself has lost every single vote he’s stood for. Yet we’re paying him a handsome wage, with expenses, to be a cunt. You keep losing. Why are you allowed to keep standing? Democracy.
