By Neil Scott I’m off work with covid. Imagine those words 5 years ago. Imagine a friend messaging that to you back then. Covid still can be dangerous for many people- and was deadly for many more half a decade ago. It killed family and friends -and work colleagues- and the devastating footage of people […]
I took a walk through Glasgow’s Maryhill area earlier today. Storm Amy had brought down a few trees, some older than my grandads da’, and a few black bins and rubble were in places they shouldn’t be. And many of the flags- the ones the racists put up- the beautiful Inclusive saltires that had been […]
The drums of xenophobia beat ever louder, a monotonous, hollow rhythm designed to stir up the basest fears of the British public.

Neil Scott on Theresa May’s last speech in the Commons. I’ve just watched as Theresa May made her last speech in Westminster (and Harriet Harman… and what a contrast… i’d urge you to find them on YouTube). May’s narrative in her speech was one of hard work and of ambition- with barbed comments against those […]
by Willie Millars Moustache… It is quite a feat for the tories to take everyone by surprise, including themselves but they managed it. I assumed the thieving bastards would hang on to January to squeeze the very last penny out of the public purse and plant as many landmines and bear traps as possible. But […]
