With less than three months of the year to go, the 2025 Scot Goes Pop fundraiser is still short of its target figure. If you'd like to help keep the lights on during the several months it will take me to find out whether an alternative funding model is viable (realistically it could be a wait of around four months or more), card donations are welcome HERE. Or, if you prefer, direct donations can be made via PayPal. My PayPal email address is: jkellysta@yahoo.co.uk
Many thanks to everyone who has donated so far.
If I was English, I'd vote Green in a heartbeat. They're becoming the only viable force against outright fascism in that country.
ReplyDeleteMind, I'd love to see some polling on quite what the English public makes of Polanski and Scottish independence. I don’t think they're as enlightened as he is!
Surely losing Scotland is political suicide down there. For all the talk of subsidy junkies, the English know they feed from our resources. It's bloody obvious, as is the need to remain either quiet or in denial about it. Push comes to shove, though, and my bet is openness to Scottish independence is a deeply unpopular stance in itself.
Mind, generational change down there may be on our side, as well.
The British, Permanent State is managing and planning. Prime Minister Farage is a foregone conclusion, but a GE is some time off, and it’s questionable whether Starmer can limp on that long.
ReplyDeleteIn practical, daily terms the position of Deputy Leader of the Labour Party is a honorific one. It does however make the office holder the prime candidate to replace Starmer.
Morgan McSweeney’s sock puppet in that contest is Education Secretary, Bridget Phillipson. In a move intended to prove her ultra loyalist credentials to the Permanent State, Phillipson indents to impose Zionist, political reeducation committees on Universities. Calm down dear, you’ve already secured the Deputy Leadership position. Under Labour Party protocols the membership vote digitally (those that can be arsed), and Morgan McSweeney decides how large a margin of victory he can announce for his candidate without causing too much of a ruckus.
How long has Starmer got left? Well, MI5 Director, Glasgow Uni graduate Ken McCallum is briefing against him. McCallum is presumably still miffed that his agent, Sue Gray was ousted as Starmer’s handler, sorry, Chief of Staff, by McSweeney.
Meanwhile, the BBC lead headline is about Israeli football hooligans being omitted from a game at Aston Villa (the outrageous decision not to ban all Israeli football clubs from international competition doesn’t even merit mention for the BBC). The Permanent State are falling over one another to lather about this decision. No pearl clutching hyperbole is too extreme. The BBC forgets to mention that fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv were responsible for instigating racist violence last year in Amsterdam. Of course, the BBC didn’t report this at the time, preferring to turn the story entirely on its head, and report that the racist, thugs were on the receiving end of “anti semitic hate crime”.
