Independence
Another example of Scotland’s vast resources being sold off by speculators and ‘Vote No’ Labour cronies to Norway who’ll sell the energy back to us at a premium. And The Herald celebrates. Total madness. archive.ph/qPK7V
Labour’s Environment Secretary Steve Reed flat out lying that Scotland’s nationalised water is a disaster. The health of our waters is infinitely better (90% good) than England’s (16%) with greater investment and lower bills. The lie goes unchallenged by #C4News
The BBC, biased? Oh yes…and most especially in Scotland taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/07/1… Is the BBC biased? You bet your bottom dollar it is, as my experience on BBC Radio Scotland this morning showed.
“BBC News has continued to write more than one article a day about Pride in July…a 1,500 word article analysing why 75% of Pride events are reporting a drop in funding…at no point…mentioned that several Pride organisers have been jailed for sexually abusing children.”

NATION was created in a time of optimism for Scotland that would adopt Nordic warrior courage & links with Europe. The only comparison country to learn from now is somewhere like Nigeria, a ‘former’ colony bossed by corporations that’s happy to jail anyone in its way…
The UK spends as much on tax breaks for the wealthy’s pensions as it does on benefits for people with disabilities. One is handed out automatically. The other is fought for, often for years. If you want to see how rigged our system is, read on. 🧵
Stuart Campbell asked re reprinting the essay on the Wings over Scotland site, since it addresses a shared concern: what the hell went wrong with the SNP? The illustrations are, inimitably, the Rev’s own … 4/4 wingsoverscotland.com/what-are-we-an…
I'm guessing I'm not the only SNP voter who will never vote 1 and 2 (and never has) (a mug's game except for unionists!) and is increasingly impatient for evidence that they haven't abandoned Indy on a well back burner.
Who even watches this? It's like the Black and White Minstrel Show for morons.
Happy National Ice Cream Day 🍦🍒 @jimbodragclown #AllStars8
I’m sorry @patmcfaddenmp but it’s rude you didn’t answer @bbclaurak’s question. I wasn’t treated with kindness, dignity or respect by the Labour Party when I was suspended and interrogated for what you apparently all always knew, please read this: mirandayardley.com/en/the-labour-…
bbclaurak: Do you regret the way Labour treated women who expressed concern about men in women's spaces? Labour minister Pat McFadden: We need to treat cross-dressing men with dignity and respect
Thoughtful counterpoint from an SNP supporter on our latest article. wingsoverscotland.com/snp-2025-updat…
Years of austerity and SNP apathy, now this. How’s that #BetterTogether vote working out for your kids, Scotland?
Remember: there is no current military threat to the UK, nor is there likely to be one in the foreseeable future.
Scotland’s anglo-centric owned press with more self-loathing jock hacks attacking any success we have. The world loved Jack Vettriano
Mate, you've got no army, no weapons and no money. Ukraine doesn't give a shit about your thoughts and prayers. Maybe focus on seeing if you can build a bit of road or something.
“Here in Scotland, we will, forever, stand with Ukraine.” First Minister @JohnSwinney has reaffirmed support for Ukraine’s independence, territorial integrity and security. Watch for more.
Path of least resistance leads nowhere…
NEW: I asked John Swinney about the NHS Fife tribunal case brought by nurse Sandie Peggie- says law is “crystal clear” on single sex spaces & that he “expects all public authorities to operate within the law” (2 videos) @LBCNewsScot @LBCNews @LBC
For those proclaiming there was absolutely no interference in Scotland’s independence referendum
