@Odiepops @YesScot The UK is no longer the UK it was in 2014, due to rampant corruption and illegalities in actions of Tory UK

 @StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot https://t.co/ZNmLXYqJq7
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot Furthermore, one of many lies used to coerce and manipulate UK electorate is that #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 would result in Scotland having to leave the EU.

In 2014, there was no open discussion that UK was considering staging a referendum on whether or not UK would leave the EU.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot That the lie used to dissuade Scots from voting for #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 effectively convinced many Scots to vote against #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and with hindsight, their BEST INTERESTS, indicates that those same Scots highly favoured EU membership.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot https://t.co/07wMiz3eoI
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot Moving forward to present day, we have confirmation that Tory Uk Government, not satisfied with manipulating indyref 2014 in their favour, they proceeded to manipulate EU Ref 2016 again in their favour.

Scotland voted REMAIN and against Brexit!
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot “Scotland has been completely ignored by Westminster throughout Brexit process and we are being forced to pay a devastating price. It is clear that the only way to protect Scotland’s interests, and regain the full benefits of EU membership, is to become an independent country."
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot “This is a very bad deal for Scotland, which will terminate our membership of EU, rip us out of the world’s largest single market and customs union, end our freedom of movement rights, and impose mountains of red tape, added costs and barriers to trade for Scottish businesses."
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot He said: “Scotland voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU. The people of Scotland have a right to determine our own future as an independent European country.”

@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot The Scottish fishing industry is ONE of many Scottish industries likely to be adversely impacted by Brexit Agreement hastily cobbled together because #LiarJohnson, refused to commit sufficient time and effort in order to achieve 'best possible outcome' for UK.

@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot If not the UK, then WHO does UK Government act to serve the interests of?

NB UK comprises 4 nations/province. Within context of devolution of powers, authority and responsibilities, it is recognised that 'reserved powers' impact lives of ALL citizens in ALL 4 nations/province.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot In recognition of the impact of issues for which 'reserved powers' exist, it ought to be beyond any doubt, that those powers ought not to be exercised without due consultation, agreement and consent of ALL FOUR nations/province comprising UK - thus, ensuring needs of all are met.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot Devolution not only devolves responsibility for the exercise of devolved powers, but also authority and obligation to act in 'best interests' of all citizens in all nations/province comprising UK.

Devolution places decision making close to citizens affected by these decisions.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot The notion that central decision making in Westminster can override decision making within nations/province comprising UK simply by locating Westminster staff geographically within each nation/province is a direct contradiction of the founders' aims for devolution.
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot The arrogance underlying such underhanded actions as evidenced within "UK Internal Market Bill" is a direct attack on devolution and democracy within ALL nations/province comprising UK.

Those parliamentarians advocating this affront to all UK citizens must be held accountable!

UK Energy White Paper is here.

I'll tweet the key points here👇

1/

Link to press

UK commits to an Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) from 1 January 2021.

Seems like a win for @beisgovuk, as @hmtreasury was known to be keen on a carbon tax

2/

Exploring the RAB model for new nuclear, as per @emilygosden article in @thetimes this

From press release, doesn't look like that many big new measures. Not surprising, as next year we're expecting:
▶️ Heat & Buildings Strat
▶️ Industrial Decarb Strat
▶️ Hydrogen Strat
▶️ Net Zero Strat
▶️ Transport Decarb Plan

And

A couple of hours later, and the White Paper is now here.

Thread:
I'm thinking about Tim Keller's influence.

There is the curious fact that Keller is well-regarded among the culture elite (or at least has not suffered the sort of vilification one might expect given his influence). How can we explain this?

Looking at Prodigal God and other writings, you see that his approach to urban ministry is deeply political in a way that appeals to Democrat-heavy cities. It involves two moves:

1) equalizing sins: elevating the sin of hypocrisy, "moralism," and "religion" (the sins of "conservatives") and equating these with the sins tolerated among liberal (e.g., homosexuality)
&
2) emphasizing "self-righteousness" as a sort of chief sin (the sin of "red states").

Keller effectively downplays the sins that liberals tolerate while elevating the sins of their political enemies, the red state conservatives.

But the greatest appeal to liberals is that critiquing the "self-righteous" vilifies political action, particularly the action of social conservatives (e.g., anti-gay marriage). And the equalization of sins eases concerns over changes in social policy (e.g., gay marriage).

Last week, @CleCityCouncil started reviewing Mayor Frank Jackson’s proposed city budget for 2021. There was robust discussion, and Documenters were there to cover it. Here’s a thread of what we learned last week about the #CLEBudget

First, it helps to know where we are in the budget process. From today through Feb. 24, the council will meet about the General Fund budget. The council will then agree on a budget with their changes (if any); 15 days after doing so, they can vote to make the budget official.


In other words, there’s still time to use your voice! The #refundcleveland tool can help. Create the #CLEBudget you want and send it to your council member. Click “Change the Budget” on the homepage and follow the on-screen instructions from there.

Want to know the budget basics? Our #CLEBudget primer details the timeline, different types of budgets and the funds involved, and defines budget-related terms. It can be a helpful guide during City Council’s discussions.

And don’t forget: all these meetings are livestreamed on City Council’s YouTube channel. They’re slated to start at 9 a.m. every business day from today through the 24th. You can also follow along with #CLEDocumenters live-tweet threads and

“Don’t leave the church because of the people who hurt you. Nobody is perfect, only God”

I’ll explain why this comment is not only not helpful at all, but also very harmful.

1/

The comment assumes we can’t tell the difference between people and toxic theology, it assumes our issues are with a few people who are outliers and misrepresented God, and we just seem to think that’s the totality of divinity. Which makes us appear unintelligent and petty.

2/

But, that’s not the case at all. I didn’t leave because a few people hurt me in the name of God, in fact I stayed long enough to get hurt again, and again, and again, and again. Because it’s not a few bad apples hurting people in the name of God what we are dealing with.

3/

Instead we are talking about systemic abuse due to toxic theology that is taught as righteousness.

Go to any white evangelical church today and conduct all the tests you must to ensure only those who are “good Christians,” remain. I guarantee you people will be harmed there.
4/

Not because people just hurt people, not because Christians have good intentions but sometimes make mistakes; instead because the harm is caused due to indoctrination into toxic theology and a belief that their social and theological framework is not only good,

THREAD: 15 of the most useful razors and rules I've found.

Rules of thumb that simplify decisions.

Bezos' Razors:

• If unsure what action to take, let your 80-year-old self make it.

• If unsure who to work with, pick the person that has the best chances of breaking you out of a 3rd world prison.

Skinner's Law:

• If procrastinating on an item, you only have 2 options:

1. Make the pain of not doing it greater than the pain of doing it.

2. Make the pleasure of doing it greater than the pleasure of not doing it.

Luck Razor:

• If stuck with 2 equal options, pick the one that feels like it will produce the most luck later down the line.

I used this razor to go for drinks with a stranger rather than watch Netflix.

In hindsight, it was the highest ROI decision I've ever made.

Bragging Razor:

• If someone brags about their success or happiness, assume it’s half what they claim.

• If someone downplays their success or happiness, assume it’s double what they claim.

The map is not the terrain.

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹

I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):


The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹


Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹


References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹
