"The promises of the fediverse can “solve a pretty huge distribution problem,” Patel said. Instead of spending time building a presence on other platforms for their benefit, a publisher can do that on their own sites — while giving readers the ability to see those posts on other federated platforms." https://digiday.com/media/why-publishers-are-preparing-to-federate-their-sites/
So... If #Westminster (that's London, England for those watching in black and white) govt. politicians can veto Scottish Government decisions then THEY ARE NOT DEVOLVED powers.
'Devolved,' therefore, is just Reserved when they feel like it.
What is a Tornadic Vortex Signature (#TVS) as depicted as a red triangle in my radar images⬆️
A TVS is a signature, or indication, of a potential #tornado. It is basically an indication of strong wind shear (or changing wind direction) in a very small area associated with potential tornadic circulation within a thunderstorm. A TVS is no guarantee a tornado will form, but definitely a strong indication that one may soon develop, or already has.
Keir Starmer standing in front of a band of Labour supporters brandishing placards of the Union Jack emblazoned with the word “Change”, does not represent change for Scotland and its people.
“I couldn’t vote for a Labour Party because they back £18 billion of public sector cuts, they’ve chosen to walk away from green commitments. They now don’t want to be part of the single market in Europe and it’ll deny the people of Scotland a choice over its own future. That’s not change, that’s the very same thing that we have at the moment.”
‘Bland’ is not good enough. Just being ‘not the Tories’ is not good enough. Especially when your policies are becoming increasingly like the Tories. And you tell us you’re just going to pick up where the Tories left off when you enter government.
I'm incensed to see #Starmer say ”Winning the trust of people across past divides, such as leave and remain, or yes and no in Scotland, is vital.”
#Brexit and #Scottish independence are not past divides, they're current. Leaving the #EU has been a disaster which in no way resembles the promises of the Leave campaign. #Scotland deserves to be able to reassess the union as so much has changed since the #independence vote a decade ago.
@patrickharvie I was intending on switching my vote in the general election from SNP to green (as I can't in conscience vote for Joanna Cherry).
Green always got my councillor vote and second list vote in Scotland elections.
If the green party go for no confidence and side with the Tories you will also lose my vote for good.
Just so you know.
Sincerely
@spytfyre@patrickharvie When I vote SNP I'm not voting for individuals or an individual, I'm voting for Independence. No other party has the slightest possibility of delivering it 🏴🇪🇺
Not even English.. 👀Apparently St George was made the patron Saint because he stood with courage to face adversity in order to defend the innocent. The triumph of good over evil, through courage. Absolutely the opposite of the evil Conservatives we are governed by today! Not for long now though..🤞#independence#scottishindependence#youyesyet
Serbia used to dominate Yugoslavia, and was very well off due to that. Nowadays, Croatia and Bosnia's economies are making bank, and Serbia is left in the doldrums because political dominance and siphoning wealth was all they had going. Which explains why Serbia fought so hard in the nineties to keep them under her thumb.
