Last evening, in George Square, Channel 4 News's economics editor Paul Mason gives his analysis of the situation here in Glasgow.
The atmosphere in Scotland has been electrifying in recent months: politics is being talked about at every bar, every dinner party, damn near every street corner and, for the first time in my life, there is something like an informed electorate on this island. The people have tasted something of the power they deserve, and we know what it's like to have hope again. I believe that when I cast my vote tomorrow it will be one of the most important things I've ever done, and I'll be voting YES, but I'm going to be in tears whichever way it goes.
My main reasons for voting yes are explained with more intelligence and flair than I have in this article: www.monbiot.com/2014/09/02/someone-elses-story/
For the economic facts to support my decision, see this article: bellacaledonia.org.uk/2014/09/16/a-risk-assessment-for-fu...
However you vote tomorrow, please do your research, and arrive at your decision through thought and analysis.
Change is coming. Hope over fear.
Glasgow, 2014.
I just voted in the most consequential election in my lifetime if not in the history of our country. Here’s hoping the nightmare will soon be over and all we deem good and precious can begin to be restored.

For 52 Weeks for Dogs -- 45/52
In this day and age, exercising your right to vote is more important than ever. Here in the US, more people turned out to vote for a midterm election than ever before. Flattery wanted to vote for better canine healthcare, mandatory treats at least five times a day and more tail wagging. Alas, those things weren't on the ballot, but I didn't tell her Instead, I cast my vote that I hope will make life better for all of us, including dogs.
You can read more about Flattery at TalesAndTails.com.

I requested an absentee ballot in Georgia. It took 23 days for it to be sent to me. I filled it out and took it to a drop-box the next day. It took another 4 days for the state website to show that it had been received and accepted. But...
I VOTED...exercising the most basic and sacred and powerful right belonging to ALL American adults. The election is on 3 November 2020. Vote as if your life depended on it. It does.

This bronze statue in Kanturk Park is of Hanna Sheehy Skeffington who was born in Kanturk in 1877. She married Francis Skeffington in 1903 & they both took the surname Sheehy Skeffington (which they did not hyphenate but used as a double name). She was a suffragette & Irish nationalist. She co-founded the Irish Women's Franchise League in 1908 with the aim of obtaining women's voting rights. She was later a founding member of the Irish Women Workers' Union.
She lost her teaching job in 1913 when she was arrested & imprisoned for three months after throwing stones at Dublin Castle in a feminist action. While in jail she went on hunger strike.
She strongly opposed participation in the First World War which broke out in August 1914 & was prevented by the British government from attending the International Congress of Women held in The Hague in April 1915. The following June her husband was imprisoned for anti-recruiting activities. He was later shot dead during the 1916 Easter Rising on the orders of a British army officer, Captain JC Bowen-Colthurst, a unionist from Cork.
Sheehy Skeffington refused compensation for her husband's death (offered on condition of her ceasing to speak & write about the murder). She travelled to the United States to publicise the political situation in Ireland. Her son, Owen Sheehy-Skeffington became a politician and Irish Senator.
She died, aged 68, in Dublin & is buried in Glasnevin Cemetery.

I voted last Thursday on the first day of early voting in Maryland. The turnout has been strong every day since with yesterday setting a record. There is so much at stake. As I was leaving the polling place one of the workers thanked me for voting- I said it's my responsibility! It's yours too- be sure to exercise this vital right.

Yes, I did vote today.
On my exit from the polls, they had something a little fancier than the "I Voted Today" stickers. I decided to leave this one on the backing and save it. Thought it was nice to have a memento of this very important Right as a female citizen.
No stickers this time around, so a digital background makes up for it. Proud to have exercised my rights.
Have your say, do it now!
#WhenWeAllVote
Today is the first day of NAIDOC week
In the city there was a gathering with lots of speeches and musical entertainment to gather support for the ‘Vote Yes’ campaign for the referendum later this year to actually give the indigenous people of this country a voice in Parliament. Amazing that this still has to happen!!! Hoping for an overwhelming ‘Yes’ vote of course.
NAIDOC Week (National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee) occurs annually in July, and celebrates the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
What is the Voice to Parliament?
The Voice would provide permanent representation and recognition for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the Constitution.
It would be a new body that represents First Nations people from across Australia to provide their input into federal government, decisions, policies and laws that affect their lives.
This would be on matters relating to the social, spiritual and economic wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The Voice would be an advisory body, but it would not have powers to overrule parliament, commonly known as "veto" powers
