Very important story from @FerretScot, revealing who's set to gain from Scotland's data centre boom. As I wrote for @tribunemagazine this week, it's not us. tribunemag.co.uk/2026/10/sco…

Scotland’s Data Centre Boom Is Selling Out Workers

Developers want to build the world’s largest data centre in Dumfries and Galloway. It’s a new low in the Scottish government’s disastrous turn towards Big Tech.

every day I see a new video of the oval office where everyone's standing around a sitting Donald Trump all solemn and he's saying something like "I could have killed them all. I might still kill them. In many ways, many respects, I am the god of the new century"

So in brief then: Glasgow’s answer to its historic equal pay scandal is to fire and rehire all its workers and put many of them, including many women, onto contracts with less money. I get this is all very complicated but the solution hardly seems optimal.
