Drug deaths: How Scotland regularly fills a 'mass grave' of people who might have lived
"Instead of trying to improve our drug rehabilitation, the policy of the Scottish Government is the reverse; indeed it’s perverse."
My latest column in @TheScotsmanbit.ly/3IWzDKH
Labour MP Rosie Duffield has resigned the Labour whip with immediate effect. Her resignation pulls no punches:
“As Prime Minister, your managerial and technocratic approach, and lack of basic politics and political instincts, have come crashing down on us as a party after we worked so hard, promised so much, and waited a long fourteen years to be mandated by the British public to return to power.
Since the change of government in July, the revelations of hypocrisy have been staggering and increasingly outrageous. I cannot put into words how angry I and my colleagues are at your total lack of understanding about how you have made us all appear.
How dare you take our longed-for victory, the electorate's sacred and precious trust, and throw it back in their individual faces and the faces of dedicated and hardworking Labour MPs?! The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale.
I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”
I just signed the petition calling on Chancellor @RachelReevesMP not to scrap the Winter Fuel Allowance for MILLIONS of struggling pensioners - just as energy bills are about to go up again! Will you add your name too? 38d.gs/pt4l
AMEN! Godly Men in the UK Are Rising Up!
Thank you to the amazing Rev Canon Phil Harris (@PhilHs10) for speaking out.
"Today there is an uprising across this once great nation, as the political liberal elite have removed themselves and placed themselves above the people that they are supposed to serve."
"You received a mandate on the back of the lowest electoral turnout for decades, and probably the second lowest turnout through genthe eral election in UK history. You gained a mere 11 million votes, which means that nearly 39 million people did not vote for you and are not interested in your policies. And yet you have the audacity and the propensity to insult the majority the silent majority of our nation."
"In recent days, we have seen an army officer stabbed 12 times. We've seen riots in Leeds for three days where your government was incapable or unwilling to take action other than to return a vulnerable child to the family from whence the child was required to be removed for concerns over their well-being."
"Two thugs violently assaulted three armed police officers in an airport, breaking the nose of a female officer, and they've not even been charged. Then riots in Rotherham for the same people who committed the assaults."
"Three little girls were murdered. Let me say that again. Three little girls were murdered at a holiday club, 10 were injured. And yet you allow the mainstream media to portray the mass murderer as a sweet choirboy."
"Sword fights and machete attacks occurred in Southend. 28 men were convicted of gang-raping a British girl, receiving 400 years because of their crimes. And those crimes been so revolting and brutal that they can't even be published."
"Eight men charged with gang raping another British child. We then have the report of a woman who was beaten to death by two Somali immigrants whilst walking her dog. Knife murders and knife crime are out of control. And they are normally committed by a certain demographic."
"We've seen decades of Islamic terrorism. And then recently pro-Palestinian and Black Lives Matter marches that you never condemned because of the Labour Mayor of London and your large Muslim voter base."
"600,000 plus people calling for the genocide of Jews. We've watched a two-tier policing where people can wave a Palestinian flag or Hamas flag and not be in any way see that as concerning, but wave a British flag or wave an Israeli flag and you get arrested."
"All of this is happening whilst we prostrate ourselves before Islam. £170 million has gone to mosques."
"The nation has been allowed to be overrun by yourselves and by previous governments, by people who share different values, and who seek to subdue us."
"We are happy for people to come here and be part of this nation who want to contribute and integrate. But that is not what you have championed."

I just took part in The Big Plastic Count, as we’re still producing far too much plastic. @_RobbieMoore, will you lead the way at the negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty and push for a cut in production of at least 75% by 2040?
Will you invite your MP to join The Big Plastic Count, the UK's biggest ever investigation into plastic waste? Politicians have the power to solve the plastic crisis! 👉 #BigPlasticCount@PlasticEverydayact.gp/3un8nOs
#roswynnejones writing in #dailymirror today about the #WASPI women who didn't live to see compensation for maladministration by the DWP regarding their State Pensions. Thank you to the families who shared their stories. Those of us still here must fight, and fight on.
The secrecy and spin from Humza Yousaf is an insult to grieving families.
