You can tell how self-serving and shallow Charles Moore’s understanding of Dr King’s vision and activism because he’s obviously not read the Letter from Birmingham Jail. In that, Dr King addressed Moore’s kind of handwringing shit directly.

Is this your cat? Seen wandering around the junction of Bath road and Salamander St. They don't look road wise so I wonder if they're an escaped house cat. #leith #EDINBURGH

I close all my tabs and within hours I have almost just as many tabs open. I don't even remember opening them. I'm like a beaver instinctually building a dam

⛅️ The summer is coming to an end and Parliament will soon resume activity.

The under-taxation of wealth, as well as the lower taxation of capital gains compared to income from employment, exacerbates income and wealth disparities and reinforces existing gender gaps - read our #WealthTax briefing here👇

Last week was Policy & Sustainability Committee - this thread is great, especially if you're interested in Edinburgh's #TouristTax ( #TVL )

Pleased Edinburgh Greens colleagues won union representation, but disappointed we were the only ones arguing against proceeds going on PR 🤦🏼‍♀️

Reminder that this is happening tomorrow at 8.45am!

So it appears we are expected to believe that some people genuinely can't understand the difference between a word said in jest between friends, and the same word being shouted at someone by a stranger in public.

Why would anyone try to convince us that they are that stupid?

Absolutely. We can't have the British Museum associated with theft and plunder.

Glorious walk with Edinburgh Greens today starting at Craigmillar Castle and ending at Porty's BigBeachBusk

Lots of sunshine and great conversations about 20 minute neighbourhoods, participatory democracy, short-term lets and the need for Lothian Buses service to Leith!

This is great but where are Spain's men's team? They have a qualifier in Georgia in two weeks, utterly shameful for them if they get on that plane with Rubiales still in office.

Tomorrow #CriticalMass #Edinburgh will be riding to Portobello Promenade where we will do a 30 minute break before riding back to town. Route map below! See you tomorrow!

See you on Friday? 💦🧽🫧🚲
