£1m donation to Better Together and gave us all the nauseating analogy of the strained marriage being given one last chance. Nothing from her since Brexshit apart from what you mention. A typically hideous New Labour and “Union” protector

Shyster who, of course, got away with his purdah-pumping bullshit.
I was also annoyed with the SNP for signing off on the Smith Commission which had fallen so obviously short of Broon’s last minute proclamations

How calamitous is the Scottish indyref result from 2014 looking now?
No wonder Westminster won’t ever allow another vote. The “Union” is completely bolloxed. Scotland will have to find another way or suffer a future that would make the Thatcherism of the 80s look like a picnic.

We need constantly to remind ourselves that there's nothing normal or inevitable about it. It would be a catastrophe from which we would not recover for many years, in which terrible things are done, to minorities, to vulnerable people, to the rest of the living planet. We cannot let it happen.

No sudden rupture is now required for the far right to take power in this country. For what we're seeing is a steady normalisation of extremists by the Conservative and Labour Parties, BBC, Telegraph, Mail and others. A shift once considered unthinkable beings to look acceptable, even inevitable.🧵

Screenshot of an Express article; it says: Robert Jenrick lists 30 'activist judges' he vows to axe in war on UK's open border In a bold move, Robert Jenrick is set to unveil a controversial plan targeting what he calls 'activist' judges, at the Conservative Party conference.

I say this with the bluntness it requires: they will get people murdered if this continues. This is not just populism anymore either: it’s completely unhinged and a deliberate choice that does endanger lives. I am not saying this lightly at all.

The 'Scottish' media is, to a large extent, the campaigning arm of WM rule of Scotland. Between now & May 2026 it will spin every positive story about Scotland as a negative one, and where that's impossible, will not report positives at all. Try other sources.

Keir Starmer asks students not to join protests on 7 October The prime minister says it is "un-British" to hold pro-Palestinian protests on the second anniversary of Hamas's attacks on Israel.

“Un-British”? Yes please.

Infected blood scandal – The mob who supposedly ‘report’ political news within Scotland are not exactly the same calibre of the Washington Post’s Carl Bernstein or Bob Woodward By Liz S People in Scotland need to realise that these UK political parties, whenever they achieve any power, they then have a tendency to hold the ‘purse strings very very tightly’ ……….t…

The real scandal is that Scotland’s media is not reporting the news where we are! talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/10/06/i...

Scottish Government requests 'urgent' update on Scots imprisoned by Israel

NEW: The Scottish Government has written to the Foreign Office to ask for an 'urgent' update on the Scots imprisoned by Israel

Unfortunately likely to be ignored as with everything else. The downside to being a virtual colony in the north of an increasingly fascist island

Complicit.

Pt1 🧵: Greta Thunberg deported to Athens says, "There's a live-streamed Genocide in front of our eyes in Gaza. No one will be able to say they didn't know this was happening. The Global Samud Flotilla only existed because our leaders failed. Our international systems are betraying Palestinians."

If you can't understand why SNP 1&2 will not work, read the following.
HR26: vote SNP 1 and Scottish Greens 2 for an Indy majority.
Vote sensibly not loyally 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It can only work by exactly replicating the numbers Alex Salmond received in 2011.That’s plainly highly unlikely now and there’s more evidence the Unionists are more willing to tactically vote too.I now favour SNP 1 and a coordinated list vote around independence in a defacto indyref. Urgency needed

Before anyone clutches at their Chelsea perils to say ''No they can't''. You know that once we leave the UK & the joke (which was designed by a Tory) of the funding formula (Barnett Consequentials) would be replaced with a more fairer system provided by the EU, same as any other Independent nation.

🚨✊🏼ICE agents OUTNUMBERED by PEOPLE, forced to retreat! Share this! If Chicago can do this, we can ALL do this. 🚨1/2

No political party is perfect, Not even the SNP, But compared to the party's who favour this despotic, Unequal union they come pretty damn close.
What has been achieved policy wise in Scotland is chalk & cheese to Britain, And yet there are those who take this for granted & still vote for the union

The wee flags they were waving at their conference were every bit as plastic as the principles of this abomination of a PM

For shame. 😡
