BREAKING - #Rosebank oilfield just given go-ahead - the greatest act of environmental vandalism in my lifetime, causing emissions equal to 28 lowest income countries, busting #climate targets & doing nothing for energy security since vast majority is for export #climatecriminals

The arts are important, they are not a luxury. They wash the dust of our daily lives from our souls. The arts transform lives and give us the power to question, to confront and explore, to challenge how we think about the world. Please think again @scotgov
Breaking: Arts agency @CreativeScots warns it faces having to reduce the number of companies with long-term funding in half after being targeted for Scottish Government budget cuts. Up to a third are already said to be at risk of insolvency within months. scotsman.com/whats-on/arts-a…

Contempt for those following the rules, often at very great personal cost. Contempt for the rule of law. Contempt for a law which they made designed to SAVE LIVES. In Johnson’s case, also lying, repeatedly, to Parliament & electorate.
