Juliet, from @cescotland.bsky.social, has got it right. Our energy can either enrich billionaires or empower our communities. It's up to us to get them to make the right choice.

HAPPENING NOW: We’re marching with workers in Aberdeen for #MayDay Too many workers have been left behind in the energy transition! We can't let it happen.
Yesterday, we saw Scottish Power's parent company, Iberdrola, report on their massive profits from the first three months of 2026. Why should we let the profits from energy generated here in Scotland go into the pockets of an energy company in Spain?
Juliet, from @cescotland.bsky.social, has got it right. Our energy can either enrich billionaires or empower our communities. It's up to us to get them to make the right choice.
There is no just transition without justice for workers. An energy transition without workers is no transition at all. It's a corporate takeover.
Stu from @fuelpovertyaction.bsky.social is right: The way our energy system works now is unfair and letting it remain so fuels the far right. The next Scottish government has to do everything in their power to boost community energy, manufacturing in Scotland and public ownership.
We're out at @scottishbeacon.bsky.social's Power Shift launch this morning! The new magazine is looking very good.😚🤌
After 50 years of oil, what does Scotland have to show for it? No wealth fund. We can't let the same thing happen with renewables!
At our launch, @riyokoshibe.bsky.social shared their research on Grangemouth with us. We have to stand up for workers in Scotland and demand that the next Scottish government invest in publicly-owned renewables manufacturing in Scotland. 🏴
In Aberdeen, we saw all of the profits from our oil go to big corporations. We can't let that happen with renewables! We need good, union jobs for workers in Scotland and community-owned energy.

Sadly and predictably, Iran appears to have achieved escalation dominance by closing the Strait of Hormuz. I asked what plans the government have for a post-conflict region where Iran retains the upper hand because it can dictate global energy prices and continue to threaten gulf nations.

The most sacred clause in the Constitution may be the war making clause. Our founding fathers are turning in their grave watching this Republican Congress allow one man lead us into a disastrous, incompetently run war.

VIA reichwingwatch This is capitalism in its rawest form... Not “how many lives will be lost?” but “will this move the needle on my portfolio?” This is the system working exactly as designed. Human lives are the expendable. Wall Street profits is the constant.
