It's not much to ask for. I want solid healthcare, some nice roads and infrastructure, world class education, good social services, and a safety net for those less fortunate. You know, all the stuff that we pay taxes for. Not subsidies and tax breaks for the rich.

A hastily prepared little video, about Òran a' Mhetagama, to commemorate 100 years since the departure of the SS Metagama with 300 economic emigrants from the Isle of Lewis. youtu.be/U3rkdut0Ej0

Re-posting this after a few corrections. Re composition of a poem (later put to music and recorded) on the departure of the SS Metagama, from Lewis, on 21st April 1923, with 300 economic migrants from Lewis to work as farm labourers in Canada. #Gaelic youtu.be/-v3VjWvIOMg

Hugely powerful song. Listen to the lyrics. There is no understanding in the HPMA policy (for more info, I've shared great threads by Rhoda Meek - read through them). This policy needs completely reviewed. Please support our communities + traditional sustainable creel fishing.

Comann Eachdraidh Sgìre a' Bhac are honoured to host 4 special visitors, from Detroit, who are here for the Metagama centenary. At least one of their parents sailed on that ship whose name is so synonymous with the mass emigrations, from the Hebrides, in the 1920s #Gaelic #bbcrng
