International terrorism on British soil.

If Putin did it there would be words in Parliament, complaints to the Embassy, and diplomats expelled.

Why not?

#ukgoverment wimps, cowards, complicit criminals

What? In defiance of local court order? There must be consequences.

Prestwick operates "at arm's length" so Scot govt not in control?

The Scottish Gov can't board a ship at a Scottish port, but the US can kidnap people off it and rendition them.

Yea Swinney, sure!

in reply to Scottish Greens

the first minister's response perfectly illustrates how a by the books attempt to continue as normal will fail and fail and fail again. Conventionalism, normalism... This now equates to appeasement if not complicity. You can't hand-wring away fascists.

Important context if people are just learning about this situation for the first time. The two abductees were a captain of a Russian-registered ship and his colleague. bbc.com/news/articles/cpwnpw9lโ€ฆ

Hereโ€™s a BBC News article on this for anyone wanting to know more: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpwnpwโ€ฆ

Typical bland reply, but it's fundamental that the US has no more right to extradite than we have. So let's extradite Trump now.
in reply to Scottish Greens

โ€œEarlier this week, the Court of Session in Edinburgh rejected a request by lawyers for the captain's wife, Natia Dzadzamia, to stop the US removing her husband from Scottish jurisdiction.
The judge, Lord Young, said the 1978 State Immunity Act meant he did not have the power to make such an order against a foreign government.โ€
So looks as if the US performed the abduction but not in defiance of a Scottish judgeโ€™s orders.

ah the double standards Carney was eluding to at Davos, if US, Israel do it whatever, if Russia or China attempt it then an act of war. Inability to hold itself to the same standards is what is bring down the west, as it was all smoke and mirrors to keep its neo colonisation going without making most of its own citizens feeling bad of what is being done to others.

@SRDas Itโ€™s not quite as bad as it sounds. They seem to have had support from both the UK and Scotland.

Still pretty bad, though.

Holy shit! I didn't even know! By all means, go after the U.S. government for this. My government has gone complete rogue and they absolutely need to face consequences for this.

another American here who is absolutely mortified by what my country is doing ๐Ÿ˜ฉ
in reply to Scottish Greens

wait. they did they just kidnap people from other countries, too? like Scotland and stuff?? where did they take them? please don't say Texas detention, because people are dying there.
in reply to Scottish Greens

Please take over Trump's golf courses first-- like, first thing in the morning, your time. Interrogate the customers. One, it's easier; two, it will be more effective, because it will affect Trump's wallet.
Trump is senile and they are injecting raw paint in his hands or something so the message will have to be direct.
