Freezing out ANO, at least on a local level, is becoming the norm

V @brnostred už je o koalici jasno: vítězní @kducsl a @starostove_cz spolu s @ODScz a @TOP09cz k nim @zeleni s @ZitBrno a @FaktBrno Dohromady dají 37 ze 45 mandátů. Do opozice odejde ANO a zůstane v ní SPD. V. Mencla vystřídá po 8 letech na postu starosty @FilipChvatal 📷

A genocide in Gaza and the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank seem to me to have presaged this development more directly than the views of 1970s Marxists.

A crazy thing about growing up in Texas is realizing just how non-Czech the rest of the country is

Jaká demagogie? Podpora v nezaměstnanosti je socialistický nesmysl a žádná státní by neměla existovat. Ať se pojistí každý kdo chce, soukromě. Kór v zemi, kde nezaměstnanost prakticky neexistuje.

Actual journalists usually try to defend their methods and analysis. Not a great look for you here.

This is also the level of unhinged responses that you make, such as this one regarding a woman, so evidently you are the problem here.

You posted an easily-debunked lie and then started ranting about people being "triggered" rather than presenting any actual facts

The inference here that dead children doesn't "trigger" you says a lot about you and the position of those who steadfastly support Israel

Everyone who hasn't worked in the mines or on the shipyards is either posh, middle class or a student poser according to him

Before saying stuff you desperately need to actually read things and understand them.

Is this only a personal view, or is it also the @ScotTories position regarding the devolution we've had for 27 years now?

Russell, have any of your advisors told you that your role isn't to try and duke it out with Reform to have the most mouth-frothing far-right takes in the parliament?

Replying to @RussellFindlay1
An absolutely wild speech dripping in bigotry, with the opening gambit that housing is apparently more important than the lives of children who are being massacred daily. Even by Scottish Tory standards, this is a bad one

The SNP have teamed up with the Tories and Lib Dems. They've voted down a Green motion which would have brought in a moratorium against new hyperscale AI data centres in Scotland. Instead they've chosen to muddy the water, leaving confusion when our communities need certainty.
Breaking. SNP, Tories and Lib Dems block Green pause on data centres.
