Scotland was way ahead of the game and 62% of us knew the damage this would do and voted to Remain but dragged out against our will by Westminster and our larger neighbouring country.

Labour must search its conscience if Reform wins Gorton and Denton, says Green leader Zack Polanski says Labour deliberately splitting left vote as voters head to the polls

It's Reform Vs the Green Party.

Vote for the Green Party.

"The latest polling from Norstat suggests that the SNP are set to sweep the constituency ballots, to the point that they won't receive a single list seat.
By contrast, Reform are projected to pick up 21 seats, all through the regional lists. They would also become the main opposition party at Holyrood.
That to me is a clear indicator that it's a waste to give the SNP your list vote in May.
If you want to boost an indy majority and hurt Reform, the best option is a Scottish Green list vote."

Interesting post from over on Mastodon. Looks like #SNP1/SG2 is going to be the way to vote to minimise the right-wing. #Scotland #Holyrood26

Under Holyroodโ€™s system, SNP list votes are often wasted once constituencies are won.

That hands seats to unionist parties and weakens the pro-independence majority.

Independence needs cooperation not one-party dominance.

Independence support canโ€™t be taken for granted.

Westminster want Scotland to adopt Nuclear โ˜ข๏ธ power. To ensure it does not sit in their backyard while siphoning off the energy . We will then be left with the decommissioning and decades of waste.
We have the energy now give us the power.

Great to see Palestine Action trending at no. 1 on here.

Is the SNP still actually interested in delivering Scottish independence? As Westminster reels from scandal and chaos, is the SNP missing its moment to press the case for Scottish independence?

Westminster is in chaos, armpit deep in the Epstein scandal and Labour plotting. Yet thereโ€™s radio silence from the SNP on independence. Now is the moment to strike and say an Indy Scotland would be better than this circus. Speak out now if you want to win the fight

Fantastic news for Scotland and another great example that will no doubt be replicated across the UK.

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage wonโ€™t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

The Scottish Government is treated shamefully by BBC. It's been more evident recently & expect will get worse as the election looms. People in Scotland don't learn, for example, that unemployment lower in Scotland, more people educated to degree level & much less child poverty.

Westminster has had over 300 years to get it right, and to be politely frank, theyโ€™ve made a complete mess of it and itโ€™s only getting worse.

Scotland has another option.

Whatever you do on 7 May - VOTE FOR SCOTLAND

Neil Young. Still showing us the way all these years later..

If you haven't heard, he gifted his entire catalog to Greenland for free. He says he hopes it will "ease some of the unwarranted stressโ€ฆyou are experiencing from our unpopular and hopefully temporary government,โ€

Reporting Scotland last night prompting Small Nuclear Reactors for Scotland. Beware!

We produce four times the natural gas we consume and transfer huge amounts of electricity to the rest of the UK โ€“ we donโ€™t need nuclear.
There are only two SMRs running in Russia and China โ€“ not tried and tested.

When a centrist like Andy Burnham is deemed to be too much of a left wing threat to the modern Labour party, it tells us just how right wing Starmer's Labour party has become. The founders of the Labour party would be rejected by Starmer. The Labour party has sold its soul to corporate donors.

Itโ€™s only been two weeks since ICE executed a U.S. citizen and unarmed mother in cold bloodโ€”then lied about it and protected her murderer.

Donโ€™t let Trumpโ€™s latest deranged distraction allow this to fade quietly into the news cycle.

There must be accountability.
