loveable by design; geek by choice I'm a big proponent of Scottish Independence. There will be occasional political rants. But mostly I'm just using this account to keep up with friends and family. #YouYesYet? #indyref #indyscot

A photo of me standing next to Joe Hill as he signs my copy of his new novel, King Sorrow. He looks normal, I look like an idiot. I'm smiling weirdly and am, for some reason, waving at the lady who was taking the photo.

Already posted it on Insta, but Mum and I got to meet Joe Hill yesterday at his book signing. Very excited to get stuck into this absolute beast of a book!

Scotland holds 96% of the UKโ€™s crude oil, 90% of its fresh water, most of its gas, fish, and green energy โ€” yet London still lectures it about โ€œdependenceโ€. Whoโ€™s really dependent on whom? Independence isnโ€™t a risk, itโ€™s overdue.

News broke yesterday of a โ€œCategory Aโ€ radiation leak that occurred earlier this year at Faslane.

Although comprehensively coved by MSM, there has been absolutely no mention of this from the โ€œbbc in Scotlandโ€, either on their TV / radio output, or online.

Ridiculously weird thing to be a wee bit upset about, because I'm not religious, but there we are. This is the church I used to go to for Christian holidays with my primary school. One of my friends lived literally across the road. Ah well.

Plaid Cymru MPs listened to disabled people and voted against the welfare bill tonight.

This bill was cruel from the start and remains unfit for purpose.

These measures will hit Welsh communities hardest - yet the vast majority of Welsh Labour MPs nodded them through.

Shame.

Today, I asked the Deputy PM if she would support an independent inquiry into the UK's complicity in Israeli war crimes.

She refused to answer.

Just like Iraq, the government is doing everything it can to shield itself from scrutiny. Just like Iraq, it will not succeed in hiding the truth.

Former Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that a โ€˜50 plus oneโ€™ threshold in a border poll is โ€˜enoughโ€™ for reunification - that a majority is a majority. Varadkar is right, so let's not indulge the nonsense peddled by some that Scotland requires 55/65% for Independence.

This was a problem on the Glasgow commuter trains, too, when I was going to college. I had my walking stick, and people who were non-visibly disabled (probably perfectly able-bodied) were sitting in the "please give these seats up for pregnant people, the elderly, or the disabled" seats.
