So I hear Tucker Carlson, arguably the greatest hypocrite on the planet, is trying to make his comeback. Perhaps a good time to re-up this.

There you go. #UniversalBasicincome strengthens community
Give poor people $1,000 every month, for three years. No strings attached. What will they spend the money on? Huge and rigorous study finds that the biggest increase is in “Supporting Others”: helping family and friends.

RIP Shane. A poet, a performer and a very dangerous role model.

And the detonator for explosions of creativity…
Just imagine the untapped potential in countless aspiring entrepreneurs if unconditional basic income was already a reality. Many could take the risk to pursue their ideas, leading to groundbreaking new startups. UBI isn't just a safety net; it's rocket fuel for small businesses!

I never said that. Stop making things up. I don’t like any interruptions in sport. Whether it’s a demonstration or when it rains and play stops, I feel for the athletes. However, I also don’t like the thought of the dreadful consequences of climate change and how it’s being dangerously ignored. 👍🏻
I find it quite revealing @GaryLineker would feel no compassion towards a pro tennis player @Wimbledon having possibly their most important match ever in their career interrupted by @JustStop_Oil protesters. What a selfish comment to make, Not surprised.

The story is great and isn’t the beautiful emptiness of the Highlands and Islands just sublime?

That cone makes the pompous statue look silly. Maybe that’s half the point. The other is to express something about Glaswegian humour - bold, cheeky, flashy. Gallus, basically. Like Glaswegians.
Banksy says he’s exhibiting in @GlasgowGoMA because of the cone hat plonked on the Duke of Wellington’s head for 30 years. Does he realise it’s now Glaswegian soft-power branding? And how will he react to the city’s own injustices? My @scotnational column thenational.scot/culture/235…

“A ‘centrist’ isn’t someone who wants a bit of both, they’re someone who hasn’t made up their mind about which option they’d prefer” plus some good positive framing advice for the left…
