🚨BREAKING: ELON JUST DROPPED THE HARD TRUTH THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO HEAR “The reason we are seeing this extreme amount of hatred and violence is because we are actually succeeding in getting rid of corruption and waste. If we weren't succeeding… they wouldn't care.

From the man who wasted £1.8 million of tax payers money in court arguing men could be women & murdering men should stay in women's jails. Shame on you....
We must root out violence against women and girls from our society once and for all. I will give it my personal leadership and let's all play our part in calling out misogynistic attitudes and behaviours in our society.

Tehran has killed scores of Americans and has been trying to assassinate US officials - myself included - for years. America didn't start this war - the Iranian regime did. wsj.com/opinion/iran-assassi…

📣🚨 FSU VICTORY! A Scottish FSU member was driving on the M80 with his four-year-old son after a day at an amusement park when another car cut him up, nearly causing a collision. Under his breath, he muttered something racist. The windows were down, but the other driver wasn’t looking at him. The only witness was his young son in the back seat. Convinced the dangerous driver had been drinking, our member contacted the police. They eventually stopped both cars and reviewed his dashcam footage. A week later, the police contacted him to say that an offence had been committed — not by the dangerous driver, but by our member, for words he had muttered under his breath in the privacy of his own car. He was prosecuted for allegedly causing alarm and distress, even though only he and his young son were in the car. It is extraordinary. The Free Speech Union found him an excellent barrister, and he was acquitted by the Justice of the Peace within minutes. This is the closest we have come to defending someone prosecuted for thought crime. This is the extent of police overreach in speech and thought policing. They need to get their priorities straight. Watch the Free Speech Union’s General Secretary, Lord Young, below 👇

but wait, we were told by the SNP that everything is Westminster's fault and there is absolutely no money left! Yet somehow, the Scottish Government managed to pull together nearly £400,000 to hand to Mary Morgan as a “redundancy” payoff simply for retiring. She already earns up to £165,000 a year and has a pension pot worth over £2 million, but the Scottish NHS just had to ensure she got a massive golden handshake on the way out the door. Meanwhile, Scots are facing mass child poverty and staggering wait times for basic medical care. The absolute shamelessness of claiming that Scotland is financially ruined by London while the SNP government rubber-stamps £378,000 payouts for public sector bosses is sickening.
The SNP are bankrupting Scotland yet there is mass child poverty. Imagine an independent Scotland where we would be eating grass. Socialism meets reality NHS boss received nearly £400,000 'redundancy' pay-off when she retired share.google/cPArjtNzwsUuRkL…

I'm not defending convicted rapist Russell Brand here. But this baldy-headed twat would never dare say this about Muslim rape gangs. Swinney thinks some women have cocks and spent a million of your money fighting women’s right to single-sex spaces in Scotland. Fcking hypocrite.

Could I go to India and get elected on a student visa @JohnSwinney ?? You damn well know I couldn't. The only person dividing communities is YOU!!!
Reform and Tories are desperate to divide our communities and take away people's democratic rights. I will have absolutely nothing to do with it.

I just got off the phone with someone who works in defense policy in Washington. What they told me should end every "Trump is reckless" argument permanently. "Every single president since Clinton received the same intelligence briefing on Iran's nuclear timeline. Every single one was told the window was closing. Every single one chose to kick it down the road because the political cost of acting was higher than the political cost of waiting." Trump got the same briefing. 60kg of 90% enriched uranium. 4 weeks to breakout. Material for 2 bombs. He chose to act knowing it would tank his approval to 35%. He chose to act knowing his own base would split. He chose to act knowing NATO allies would refuse to help. He chose to act knowing gas prices would spike. A senior analyst I know at a major think tank put it this way: "The difference between Trump and every president before him isn't intelligence. They all had the same data. The difference is courage." Read that again. Every president had the same file on their desk. Only one opened it and did something. I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨

It is very much Holyrood's fault. They changed the electoral rules to allow those on temporary visas to vote and stand in election - that is not permitted in Westminster and rUK elections.

First Minister John Swinney has called for "dramatic action" to be taken after a healthcare watchdog issued a damning report into failures by senior leadership at NHS Grampian. Healthcare Improvement Scotland found "major deficiencies" across the region and revealed that a failure to learn from mistakes had caused "repeated and unavoidable harm" to patients.

Colleges are advocating TREASON! Colleges are pushing anti-constitutional, anti-free speech, pro-Sharia Law, & pro-communist policies Sharia Law & communism can't work without tyranny! Stop all college funding that is NOT Stem-related. No college loans for non-stem fields.

.@POTUS: "I'm going to be vetoing a lot of things that they're going to send me initially that are bad for the country — and I think eventually they're going to call and they're going to say, 'Let's make a deal,' and we'll be able to make deals on healthcare, on drug prices."

Since the date that Britain left the European Union (the single market and the customs union), the economies in the United States and the United Kingdom have grown by 19.2% and 15.7% respectively. The two biggest EU economies — Germany and France — have grown by 4.5% and 10.5%. Why would the Burnham Labour government want to tie us more closely again to the single market and the customs union? Britain’s exports to non-EU countries have risen to almost 60% of the total in the same period. Before they crow about today’s growth figures, they might want to consider the utter stupidity of their own EU policy.

Thank you for bringing up 2014 because that is exactly where this logic is taking us. You just admitted there was a “majority in favour of staying in the UK”. Yet, the SNP has spent the last decade completely ignoring that majority to endlessly promote the 45% Yes minority. You claim Brexit was “fundamentally wrong” because it went against the 62% Scottish majority, but you think Scottish Independence is fundamentally right even though it went against the 55% Scottish majority. If the 38% Leave minority's voice should be dismissed, why do we have to listen to the 45% Yes minority complain every single day? You only respect democratic majorities when you happen to agree with them. It is a breathtaking display of hypocrisy.
You know the majority in favour of staying in the EU was proportionately much higher than than the majority in favour of staying in the UK, so I am not sure where this logic is taking you.

Dear God! I can hardly believe the brassneck & hypocrisy. We all know who has been spreading division for years. He's angry because there is more challenge from opposition now - and that's exactly what opposition are meant to do.
Reform and Tories are desperate to divide our communities and take away people's democratic rights. I will have absolutely nothing to do with it.

This week we've watched every SNP loyalist fall over themselves to defend the party rather than hold their hands up and say they got it wrong. When defending a political party becomes more important than questioning it, you’re no longer holding it to account - You are making excuses for it. The SNP are not Scotland - They are a leftist populist party filled with grifters, grievance mongers, attention seekers, weirdos, activists and utter incompetence. Every promise, every gripe, every slogan, every manufactured confrontation with Westminster and every constitutional row serves the same agenda - Keeping the same inept and useless freeloaders on the gravy train.

O Secretário Marco Rubio acabou de JOGAR A BOMBA contra a Anistia Internacional, que ataca os EUA por "crimes de guerra" no Irã "Vocês sabem no que eu acho que a Anistia Internacional deveria se concentrar? Num regime iraniano que ASS*SSINOU a sangue frio dezenas de MILHARES de pessoas nas ruas de Teerã e em outras partes do país!" "No que a Anistia Internacional deveria se concentrar é em como o regime iraniano invade hospitais quando os manifestantes estão feridos e ASS*SSINA as pessoas em suas camas de hospital." "E, a propósito, às vezes ass*ssina os médicos ou as enfermeiras que os trataram. Então eles deveriam se concentrar NELES!" "ESSES são crimes de guerra. ESSES são crimes contra a humanidade. Esses crimes estão sendo cometidos contra o próprio povo deles!" "A Anistia Internacional é uma FARSA!" É só mais uma organização globalista que se aconchega com islamistas e ignora os VERDADEIROS crimes contra a humanidade. Marco está certíssimo Esses grupos de "direitos humanos" ficam mudos quando um regime massacra seu próprio povo, e de repente encontram a voz quando a América revida! Rubio disse o que milhões de iranianos vêm implorando ao mundo para reconhecer, e o que os AMERICANO SABEM Assim como o TPI, vamos ignorar a "Anistia Internacional". Francamente, QUALQUER grupo que se rotule em torno de "anistia" deveria ser descartado como besteira

Nobody on a temporary visa should be standing for election in Scotland, or even voting. Citizenship should mean something!
