  1. I am sending the assisted dying bill back to the Lords – and this time, peers must do the right thing | Lauren Edwards
    By Lauren Edwards

    The will of the elected chamber – and a popular, compassionate piece of legislation – must not be frustrated again by a small minority of peers

  7. Bizarre statement by #AnasSarwar! 🙄

    It's about his decision to eff to London, to a seat in the unelected #HouseOfLords. He will also be a minister for trade, but as a Minster Of State, he will have no power. The prize here is the Lords seat for life

    At the end, he refers to his successor, in a context that can only refer to the party leadership. But he never actually says that he is resigning as leader of #ScottishLabour. Is he still leader?

  8. A tough 5 years for Scotland's silliest clown show. Traditionally, every other year the leader of #ScottishLabour would be humiliatingly defenestrated, and replaced with someone even less competent.

    #AnasSarwar cheated by staying for 5 years, almost a million times the average tenure. The comedy cane from losing elections with increasing severity.

    Now he restores the humiliation by crawling to the #HouseOfLords.

    #SLAB Leader #11 due soon. Don't blink, or you'll miss them 😅🤣

  9. @sibrosan So, after reviewing articles and my notes, it seems pretty clear that #BigBanks and #WeaponsManufacturers encouraged Putin's invasion of #Ukraine because they would make an obscene amount of profit from such a war. For whatever reason, some western nations (including #Trump and the #USA), did not nip Putin's bluff in the bud, and their hesitancy emboldened #Putin. This is what happens when war profiteers are running things. No thought given to civilian deaths, destruction, and environmental damage. Same thing is going on in #Israel. We should have said, "Hey, cut it out. You're committing #WarCrimes!" but instead the US supplied even more weapons to Israel ('cuz #Raytheon / #LockheedMartin / #Boeing / #Halliburton ) need to make enough money to keep buying members of #Congress (and the #HouseOfLords). Does THAT answer your question?
