In terms of the Scotland headlines,I find it bizarre that,in just 8 years,we've had 6 UK PMs,6 UK chancellors of the exchequers,8 UK foreign secretaries and 8 UK home secretaries ...yet we have one vote of no confidence in Scotland and all of a sudden we are the ones in crisis!?

£500m of taxpayers money has been spent on a Freeport which has received £0 of private funding, but they have taken £120m of profit.

Oh and they own 90% of it, because they bought it from Government for £100.

Parliament ordered an Audit, but we need a criminal investigation.

Funny how the #Oil in Scottish waters is always seen as a benefit to Britain but a terrible burden for Scotland! Wonder why they didn’t want Scots to see this article #SelfDetermination #ScotRef

Apparently intelligent commentators suddenly
adopting faux ignorance

The first box is Police Scotand Guidance on Hate Crimes

The 2nd Box is from the CPS/Police(England and Wales)
definition for identifying and flagging hate crimes

Outrage from Iain on 1st.Not a word re 2nd ‼️

Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll Here is Israel’s National Security Director calling Gaza a “concentration camp” even before Hamas and the full siege being imposed.

The parochialism of the discussion on hate crime is a thing to behold. France - where Andrew Neil lives - already has the following offences on its statute book, including inciting hatred based on race, religion, sexuality, gender identity or disability: hatecrime.osce.org/hate-crime-leg…

Amidst the torrent of propaganda, smears and lies regarding the Hate Crime Act it's worth remembering that this Act was passed with a large majority and the support of 4 parties.

It's essentially the same as the existing UK Hate Crime Act.

Any transfer of weapons or ammunition to #Israel that would be used in #Gaza is likely to violate international humanitarian law and must cease immediately, human rights experts warned today.

“All States must not be complicit in international crimes through arms transfers.'

Really Murdo? The SNP MPs lead the case which stopped Boris Johnson’s unlawful prorogation of parliament. Biggest constitutional case of the century. I also chair the committee which regularly calls out your govt’s #HumanRights violations. Important work.

Jeff King 4, Hoyle the made an excuse to say he wanted all parties to have their say.
5, the next excuse briefly mentioned was MP safety.
6, after disappearing to get his story right it was then all about MP safety.

The first 2 excuses are now forgotten about

It's clear that Labour blackmailed Lyndsay Hoyle into violating Westminster protocol so they could protect Israel from the charge of collective punishment. The Speaker allowed himself to create precedent in naked party political interest and should resign📢[share if you agree]

“We are outraged and deeply saddened by these killings… targeting a building knowing it is full of humanitarian workers and their families is unconscionable.”

Ben Shapiro THIS is how they've been able to do everything they've done

Brace, brace for the first #TheWeekInTory of 2024.

Also, please read the tweet at the end, which my publisher insists I add, and which helps to pay for my dog to eat things (other than rotting pigeons he finds on the field). Ta

I will never forget that Al Jazeera ran a live clock on their screens timing how long Samer Abu Daqqa lay there bleeding while Israeli forces shot everyone trying to help him.

And even that didn’t shame the western media into picking up the story until a month after.

ScotRail services are not affected by this strike action, as our staff aren't part of this dispute.

Ben Mulroney They’re not. The British Lancet done an analysis using UN figures and concluded if anything, the figures are more likely to be worse.

But why let the truth get in the way of your rampant prejudice?

I can hardly believe this - thanks Palestine Festival of Literature for this reading - 🫶🏼❤️🙏🏾😊 Daniel Machover
