Praying we are in the end game

hosting the biggest arts festivals in the world while fucking over our own artists is the most depressingly Scottish thing ever

just brutal that Scotland - so proud of a national image sculpted by writers - doesn't prioritise arts funding. We have a national day for a poet, largest monument in the world to a writer, Nan Shepherd on the £5 note, but are making it *so* difficult for new work to be created

Exclusive from The Herald Glasgow City Council admits that plans to cut 450 teachers "may have a detrimental impact on the poorest children and young people". heraldscotland.com/news/24532797.…

There are no universities left in Gaza. That means the right to education has been revoked for tens of thousands of students. If our educators won’t speak out against educide, who will?

BREAKING Colleges have made a fresh offer to lecturers and EISFela is recommending that members vote to accept. Agreement would end a pay dispute that has continued for nearly two years and caused chaos across the further education sector.

I saw this dreadful interview this morning - why is it ‘tough decisions’ always land on the poor and working class - where are the ‘tough choices’ affecting the wealthy, the corporations, the media barons, the hedge fund managers, the bankers?

It's always the ordinary people who have to suffer for the long term good. Where's the tax clampdown on multi-nationals, the tax on obscene energy company profits, the Royal Family being told to make do for a couple of years, the arms manufacturers having contracts cancelled?

Self-defence.

People who send gifts to MPs and ministers could just send them to food banks and clothes banks instead.

The brave protestor at Labour conference demanding an end to all arms sales to Israel reminds me of the party member who was dragged out of conference in 2005 for protesting the war in Iraq. Who was on the right side of history?

If you were being heckled for selling arms to a Government that has killed or injured over 100,000 civilians, you’d surely be minded to show just a little empathy. But then again, this is quite clearly a changed Labour Party. #Gaza

Keir Starmer.

The scenes coming out of Beirut are heartbreaking. What is there left to say? Shame on every single person arming and enabling Israel's mass slaughter. Shame.

I really need someone to explain to me how bombing 6 tower blocks in Beirut is different from bombing the twin towers. Like how.

He’s so full of shit
