Review: Jock Mulligan Ten Days that Shook the World, by John Reed. Reds, Directed by Warren Beatty. A fine tale, John Reed tells- one we need to watch nowadays- one that shows the spirit and fire of revolution before Stalin murdered its youth. I’d’ve had a pint with Reed, no doubt, even with him being […]
Indybag: “A Modern-Day Scot’s Guide to Not Being a Muppet on the Internet“ So, you’ve finally realised that the corporate behemoths fucking hate you, but want your money and have an unending appetite for your personal data. Good fer you. You’ve heard the whispers about Signal, the one-horse race for privacy in the digital age- […]
The drums of xenophobia beat ever louder, a monotonous, hollow rhythm designed to stir up the basest fears of the British public. The demagogues, with their stale rhetoric of “taking back control” and “stopping the boats,” paint a picture of a nation under siege, a land being overrun by a faceless, foreign horde. They speak […]
By Indybag The Thatcherite and subsequent right wing political project that began in 1979 has had a singular, brutal goal: to crush the working class. This wasn’t some unfortunate byproduct of economic change; it was a deliberate, ideological war on the very fabric of communities, on people’s livelihoods, and on their collective power.

Yes campaign lessons… by Neil Scott What we knew about Kirkintilloch in 2011-14, was that it was a majority Yes for Independence town. Other towns in East Dunbartonshire- Bearsden, Milngavie, Torrance, Lenzie, Bishopbriggs- we weren’t so confident of.

The backdrop to all of it is laid out very starkly in the first paragraphs. The Nicola Sturgeon story is essentially drenched in personal, familial and societal struggles for hitherto denied opportunities, justice and equality. The Patriarchy will never reach out to feel the truth of this from a woman with a working-class background. Nicola […]
Folks involved in the Radical Independence Campaign have been having some discussions relating to our attitudes towards the Scottish Parliament elections in May 2026, including (because it’s a supposedly “new” factor) the “left” party being set up by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana, its implications for Scotland, for Scottish self-determination, and for RIC.

Neil Scott on the Musk, Zuckerberg et al threat to truth… When I was on holiday, I went on a cycling trip with a number of other holiday makers. Two of them were teachers from the USA. They were lovely, funny, decent. Both enjoyed travel, both got on with everyone on the trip. Both, it […]
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 […]
Prick & Chuck travel to Miami on their next step in flooding the Orange concealer scandal. What will they find out, how are they coping with the all the substances they have been taking and how does an 80’s Brit TV star help?? Confused? You won’t be after the episode of A Prick in America. […]
