After #Tory #MSP Jackson #Carlaw raises sectarian #vandalism in one of his local #Catholic #schools, the #FirstMinister of #Scotland, John #Swinney, offers to visit the school with him. Great to see in this case that #sectarianism isn't being swept under the carpet, and politicians of different parties uniting against it

Teslas hit with "Kraft cheese singles" was not on my #teslatakedown bingo card. Makes sense, though, because they stick to absolutely everything, are easy to cut into the shape of a swastika, and will pass as "food" if you are stopped by police.

"...Tasmania’s only Telsa store has been vandalised with graffiti, labelling CEO Elon Musk a “Nazi”.
The shop front, located in Derwent Park in Hobart, was graffitied with the phrase “Do you really want to drive a swasticar?” alongside a photo of Musk captioned “Heil TeSSla.”
Grassroots Action Network Tasmania (GRANT) posted photos of the vandalism to their Facebook page.
“A proud new rebranding of the Tesla outlet in nipaluna/Hobart has been spotted honouring their fascist in chief, Elon ‘the space Nazi’ Musk,” they wrote. "
Bizzare #vandalism - someone has taken the effort to climb a light column on #pedestrian refuge in middle of the village and obscure keep left #sign with grey paint (they have also done the same to smaller sign on the #bollard, can't be seen in photo due to darkness). Seems more sociopathic than normal #graffiti (maybe someone pissed off the refuge is there in first place, it discourages speeding through the village, or angry that the local Speedwatch have put up a camera nearby?) #Suffolk
