The government is suggesting that it might ban some Apple security updates. Under the latest plans, tech companies would need to notify the British government before rolling out a security fix but might be refused permission if it blocks a vulnerability that’s being exploited by security services.

    Independence issues notwithstanding, the SNP seem to have a pretty authoritarian streak of their own, especially under Yousef. Their attitude to free speech is quite lacking.

      You ate absolutely correct in that regard.

      They get my vote for a couple reasons.

      They are the least bad option outside of what I used to do and vote for an independent.

      Some of their policies that have been implemented have directly benefited me and mine. Annoyingly with policies that Labour should be pushing.

      They are never going to be in government at the UK level with labour’s policy of rather having a tory government than work with them.

      They are a means to an end without being as bigoted as the lot that split off with Alex for the most part.

      I find yousef very bland but I would say if the other nutter got the job I’d ho back to independents
