there there let's support you, now do as yer told

From the British budget rather than the Scottish, in context of the announced end of austerity, an announced new spend of £10 million on mental health for ex-army. The Daily Record reported this, around their high suicide rate.

Which matters. Matters a lot to human life. Trauma of the whole military scene and experience, for all history it has been a bad aspect of the world that it exists. They printed a story of a life ended at age 28 by this impact. The more the need to care about it chips away at the brutal nature of what it is, the better for the whole condition of life.

But - problem. Daily Record is a powerful media, a world of its own, can print what it wants. It spun the solution, predictably, as being this higher spending. "need to know support will always be there." There is no way to make it print a word on the civil liberty danger behind what it advocates. The danger that the support turns into forcing things on them and ordering them to make personal changes unrelated to why they came for support.

The things said by the Record and govt are only common sense if the support shall not have that unsupportive oppressive dangerous power !

At the session of the UN Human Rights Council, High Commissioner Zeid Ra’adAl Hussein again called for the exclusion of psychiatric coercion, as an absolutely unacceptable violation of human rights. That is already for years the position of the UN Committee on rights of Disabled People. This latest step in human rights is publicly supportable thus:

This is what 100K looks like

This photo from last year's events in Barcelona elpais.com/elpais/2017/10/03/inenglish/1507033493_729669.html. This is what a crowd of 100 thousand looks like.

It's not what the crowd at the nat's "All Under One Bannner" Edinburgh rally looks like in the photos, the 2 days of photo page spreads in the National, or looked like if you were there. The figures that match what it actually looks like are 6 to 10 K.

They were clumpily and thinly spread out. They were surrounded by wide tracts of empty meadow, which they were all on one side of. It was far smaller than their last couple of years' Glasgow Green rallies. Smaller event and smaller crowd.

The 100K figure then is fake news and nonsense. Yet it is repeated in Lesley Riddoch's Scotsman column. The Disqus commenters know what to ask? Where were the coaches or cars parked, needed to bring a crowd of that size?!! Good minds to think of that. With no temporary toilets set up where were a crowd of that size peeing? Desperate to invent a momentum that's not there, while the polls remain unsafe for them to call a ref, and the infighting over it is audible between rally speakers.
