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 […]
As swathes of English people are fooled into flag wars, and Americans are being groomed to hate oil rich Venezuela, Karen Orr explores the history of the working class dying for billionaires… The history of conflict is not the grand narrative of kings and causes taught in schools; it is, at its core, a sordid […]
By Jock Mulligan The United Kingdom, once held together with spit, stubbornness, and a fair bit of historical coercion, is unraveling faster than a cheap Penny’s January Sales jumper. And it’s not some foreign agitator or a few angry Celts doing the pulling; no, it’s the very heart of the thing, the English political establishment, […]
By Gael. A Beacon in the Storm: Why a Fair Scottish Republic is a Shield Against the Rising Tide The air in these islands is thick with a disquieting hum, a low, guttural growl that speaks of fear, division, and a retreat into the suffocating embrace of a narrow, exclusionary nationalism.

He’s a character from the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology, particularly famous in the tale of Fled Bricrenn (Bricriu’s Feast). He was a wealthy hospitaller, a man of means who was expected to provide hospitality, but his true nature was one of […]
By Jock Mulligan The NHS, that grand experiment, the jewel in the crown that’s been tarnished by neglect and miserly hands has featured in debates in Ireland of late and I guarantee you, Labour will make it a huge part of the debate against Scottish Independence. One of the bigger sticking points for the undecided […]
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 […]
No, says Neil Scott. The Corbyn project/party is a split in a London based party (new New new Labour) built around a London based interim leadership. It has become necessary because of a shift in politics that has spiralled out of the control of liberals in England. “Nationalist” capital, via Farage’s empty vessel, has radicalised […]
