I asked MetaAI to provide areas of comparison between Hitler/Nazis and Farage/Reform:
To facilitate this comparison, consider the following factors:

1. Economic conditions: Germany's post-WWI economic struggles vs. the UK's post-financial crisis and Brexit-related economic uncertainty.

2. Nationalist sentiment: The rise of nationalist and anti-immigrant rhetoric in both cases.

3. Charismatic leadership: Hitler's and Farage's ability to mobilize and inspire their respective bases.

"Economist and former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said that jobs in the “industrial heartland will be lost as American producers can’t compete due to higher input costs”.

He said on X that Canada and Mexico will lose trust in the US and that the effect on the supply chain will be a “strategic gift” for China"

I sincerely hope that this means he intends to be the first First Minister of an independent #Scotland because if we haven't become independent by 2031 I seriously doubt the #SNPs commitment and determination to gain #independence.

Malta achieved it's independence within 20 years of the end of the 1939-45 war. We need politicians with the same determination as the Maltese.

This plaque is in #Dornoch. It's not part of the town #history trail (which does feature the "Witches stone"). I can find no further information online about the events around this (only description and location data).
However, it does show that some did face #punishment for the #murder of "#witches".
