The SNP is breaching a historic Holyrood vote for an Israel boycott, amid preparations to issue new government bonds. The government is also accused of allowing “secrecy” around a government agency, Scottish Enterprise, which “refused to publish key information” on preventing genocide in Gaza. The Zionist occupation entity continues murdering Lebanese, Iranian and especially Palestinian civilians en-masse, largely unchecked by Western governments. Scotland’s government was among few to have taken meaningful steps in line with the global Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement’s urgent call. The SNP-run Scottish government confirmed nine banks chosen to support a £1.5 billion issuance of bonds. Expected…

They wore matching red swimming costumes and lay on white towels, imitating popular media images of beachgoers in hot weather. Each sunbather waved a ‘Stop Rosebank’ fan and behind them a large banner read ‘No New Oil & Gas’. The protest comes as the UK just experienced its hottest June ever. And uncertainty lingers over whether Andy Burnham will approve the Rosebank and Jackdaw North Sea oil fields once he becomes prime minister. Heatwave after heatwave…

RUK Advanced Systems Ltd helped fund a group of British MPs as part of a ‘PR and marketing campaign’ A British weapons firm owned by the Israeli government has been brought back to life, after its lobbying activities were exposed by Declassified last year.

Erling Haaland delivered the decisive blows in New Jersey, striking twice in the final stages to send Norway into their first-ever World Cup quarter-final and dump brazil out at the last‑16. The Manchester City striker rose to meet a pinpoint Andreas Schjelderup cross on 79 minutes, then drove in a second in stoppage time to cap a clinical, minimal‑touch performance that punished Brazil’s wastefulness.   Neymar, introduced for only his second appearance of the tournament, converted a late penalty deep into added time, but it arrived too late to alter the outcome. Bruno Guimarães had earlier seen his own spot‑kick saved…
