If you're a chief executive on a telephone number salary, at least have the grace not to complain about the taxes that fund the benefits your workers have to claim because you refuse to pay them enough to live on

The central belt is fairly getting rattled with this storm.
Some scary gusts throughout the night and this morning.
No it’s not the Forth & Clyde canal this is the Argyle line under water at Dalmarnock

It’s that time of the year again where all the extra plinths get placed in front of shelving for Xmas, which coupled with general poor & thoughtless management of shop floor space means that unless you can shape shift you are royally #DisabledByTheSupermarkets

Sainsbury's has posted an annual profit of £1.02bn.
It current has 10,000 young people working for free, paid by you.
With £1.02bn it could hire 105,905 people aged 18-20 for 16 hours a week all year.
Why not MAKE the scumbags hire instead of giving them free workers?

Here's the Brit nationalist 'Better Together' oil tycoon Ian Wood on TV 2014 telling Scots 'we have some oil in the shale and rocks, but it's not economically exploitable'. BBC Scotland said all oil gone by 2019. In 2023 'UK' is dependent on Scotland's huge reserves #YouYesYet?

Released 40years ago today. Don’t dream it’s over by Crowded House from their self titled debut album. Only teased No. 27 in the UKcharts but was No. In the US Billboard charts.
A brilliant song that has endured time. @CrowdedHouseHQ @NeilFinn

Housing support should reflect the cost of rent.
But it doesn't.
And it's pushing people to food banks.
Join us in calling on the Prime Minister to reconnect housing support with local rents so that nobody is forced to choose between paying the rent and buying food.

Sadly, I don’t think the @ITV exposé will move the needle. People support @reformparty_uk BECAUSE it’s a racist party. It needs racism to exist. Reform legitimises racism and turns it into a “political view”. Hatred should never have been given a home in mainstream discourse

Long overdue but necessary.
Disabled people can now report media coverage that scapegoats and stigmatises them and contributes to the hostile environment many of them face in their daily lives, thanks to a new campaign.

"Devolution was never meant to stop at Holyrood."
What does that even mean? Labour introduced devolution, and were in charge for the first eight years. Did they not do what they were "meant" to do? Why not?
