'He comes across as a very petty excuse for a Prime Minister... it's desperation.' 'This is what they call dead-cat politics', Labour peer Baroness Chakrabarti tells @ShelaghFogarty, expressing how 'ashamed' she is as Rishi Sunak says planes are booked for Rwanda deportations.
Sunak: "Nothing will stand in our way" of Rwanda flights. How about common decency, humanity, or morality? As each day passes, there is more evidence that Westminster does not share Scotland's values. It is time to vote for independence and leave broken Brexit Britain behind.
@MhairiHunter When Little Britishers like Starmer say they put "country first", what they mean is the feudal patriarchy. We in the SNP feel that the "country" is its people - all of them - women, refugees, farmers, workers, our health service, our teachers. That's the country we put first.
URGENT: Help @MetPolice identify this sick racist earlier today in Romford! WATCH as this coward physically threatens and subjects a group of women with his vile, horrific, racist and Islamophobic slurs. We stand with them in solidarity! 📢 Internet, please do your thing! 🚨
I'll still be voting @theSNP Election is obviously coming very soon. MI5 have played their final hand and no indy Scots have turned into yoons. #ScottishIndependence2024 is happening. #YesScots #IndyClan

Chris Patten has just murdered the party of which he was Chairman. It’s all in here - the bilge of Brexit, the worst foreign policy error ever made, and the insanity of the right wing cult’s grip on this once great political machine. Pure gold, spread it.
A genius question!

What’s happening in Westminster? Well, two of the most privileged groups in society are deciding the fate of some of the most vulnerable people in the world. The SNP will continue to vote tonight, at every turn, against the grubby and dangerous Rwanda Bill.
Sunak: "Nothing will stand in our way" of Rwanda flights. How about common decency, humanity, or morality? As each day passes, there is more evidence that Westminster does not share Scotland's values. It is time to vote for independence and leave broken Brexit Britain behind.
Wow.
🚨Question: What do all these people have in common? Answer: They have all funded the PM Rishi Sunak with private helicopter travel in the past year. 🧵⤵️
So Gideon Falter turned up at the march with his own security team. Waited for the march, then tried to cross the road. 13 minute clip now released shows the Police trying to de escalate. Once again people for for this contrived outrage INCLUDING the PM and Home Secretary!…
@MhairiHunter When Little Britishers like Starmer say they put "country first", what they mean is the feudal patriarchy. We in the SNP feel that the "country" is its people - all of them - women, refugees, farmers, workers, our health service, our teachers. That's the country we put first.

“You understand that I’m a semite myself, right?” While speaking to Channel 4 in an interview that was published on Thursday, Egyptian-American comedian Bassem Youssef responded to antisemitism accusations and said such accusations have become “devoid of anything, of meaning”.

Melanie is right. The Israeli Government cannot be above accountability. The UK Government continues to send arms to Israel despite the fact they have killed children, women, aid workers and bombed hospitals, school & refugee camps. Shameful & unacceptable. #NotATarget
We at @MedicalAidPal stand with our colleagues at @WCKitchen as they grieve the loss of their seven team members in #Gaza. They were killed as they served humanity. When Israel faces no consequences for its continued targeting of aid workers then this is the result #NotATarget
I do my best to shield my children from the racism and Islamaphobia I face on a regular basis. That becomes increasingly difficult when racist grafitti targeting me appears near our family home. A reminder of why we must, collectively, take a zero-tolerance approach to hatred.
