That fact is much less shocking when you realise that around 300 million trees have been planted in Scotland since 2000. And that most trees felled in Scotland are Sitka spruce grown for timber.

After everything else, I guess this shouldn't come as much of a surprise
Labour drops pledge to introduce self-ID for trans people

Everything that shammer's said is a pledge isn't worth a shit.

From andysays link the video Starmer made for Pride during the pandemic.
Actually made me angry watching this. He comes across as so sincere. At end he makes two pledges if a Labour government comes in. Ban conversion therapy and bring in Self ID. No one forced him to make these promises.
The backtracking comes across to me as not sincere at all. Its been done just in case it becomes controversial at election time. The fudge he's made means he wont have to defend a policy of Self ID. But also make out he's more liberal than the Tories. I suppose his advisors reckon promising Self ID isnt worth the hassle of defending it at election time.
Worth watching as it shows Starmer up.

The video he made ( post above) was the second time he had made this promise.
He is such an unpleasant piece of work.

Amazingly he's a bigger liar than Boris Johnson, it's quite incredible

The difference is that Starmer's lies are intended to be calculated, politically astute and vote-catching. Johnson's lies are genetically based.

naturally fluffy
except by promising to do one thing then promising to do the opposite, he will piss more people off, as people will remember the promise they don't like.
complete waste of a suit.

People can do what they want to do, but I don’t imagine some conspiraloon programme will do much to dislodge starmer, or indeed to illicit sympathy for minorities who aren’t the target of this particular nonsense. If anything it has the opposite effect.

I haven't seen it. How much of it is conspiraloonery? We now know what Starmer and the right are capable of in ejecting socialists from the party. I've heard the film being called anti-Semitic by some, yet I also skim read a mostly positive view from a Jewish group. I'll watch it with an open mind at some point hopefully.

I've seen the accusation of consipirloon - interested, what do you know of that? Also accusations of anti-semitism, although I've not seen anything specific there, either.

I saw the film The Big Lie recently in a packed church hall in Tavistock recently. I don't know if everything in it is spot on, but most of it is clearly pretty accurate. There was a conspiracy against Corbyn, much of it out in the open, some of it undercover. And a media against him from the outset. Israeli involvement probably. Why should anyone be surprised by all this? And why should Starmer want to prevent anyone seeing the film? I can't imagine why.

On Corbyn.
Lesson I learned from that is that anyone on the Social Democratic left is going to get a hard time. Same thing happened in Spain with Pablo Iglesias.
Its not political disagreement its that left social democrats get treated as not legitimate part of a democratic society.
Enough Spanish people rejected that view to halt it for now in their country . Remains to be seen if it happens here.
If you are not a considered a safe establishment politician then you get full on attack.
It wears people down to point they go.
Ive a lot of respect for Corbyn for keeping going.
Same with Jamie Driscoll. Behaved with a lot of dignity in face of way hes been treated by right of party for talking to Ken Loach.
Starmer , however , can lie again and again, and thats fine. In fact some on left cheer him on.

#Labour say there's no money left but Centrica appear to be doing well. The same Centrica who use Global Counsel lobbying services to get what they want. Run by Peter Mandelson, who now advises #Starmer. Funny old world. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-66315117

Look out, he's got a gnu!
All I'm hearing from much younger people than me is they are sick of the fucking u turns and willingness to throw trans people under a bus
Starmers made it very clear he doesn't actually like Labour members and activists
