Under Holyroodβs 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 canβt be taken for granted.

This small school district kept losing students to ICE. So it mobilized.
Outside of Minneapolis, the five schools in Columbia Heights have taken an aggressive approach to protecting the immigrant families of their students.
The impact of ICE operations saturated every aspect of the day in the schools outside of Minneapolis. Dozens of parents were in custody. Hundreds more had decided school was too risky and enrolled their children in online classes.

VAT-registered brewers in the UK must charge 20% VAT on their beer to customers, in addition to paying separate Alcohol Duty to HMRC...
Eh? WTF?
Some Breweries may benefit from relief, but all VAT-registered brewers must pay VAT AND duty, ALL to Westminster.
We REALLY need Scottish Independence.

Verge headline: ICE is pushing Minneapolis underground
by Gaby Del Valle
Photos by Jack Califano
Photo depicts a white brick wall plastered with two recurring posters: One that says Alex Pretty ICU Nurse - Murdered by ICE, shows his photo with red highlights. Another is similar but reads Renee Nicole Good American Mom - Murdered by ICE
ICE may have lost the battle for public opinion, and its operation may be hampered by local pushback, but it has succeeded in one respect: It has instilled terror in Minnesotaβs immigrant communities, forcing them into the shadows.

TWO Tribes have gone to war. That 1980s hit has been rumbling through my heid since Anas Sarwar launched his broadsword against erstwhile colleagueβ¦
Despite its freshly polished nameplate Scottish Labour is still a branch office. Maybe different if Sarwar had completed his Starmer attack & announced a new Scottish party that dares to back indy/indyref2. But two tribes have gone to war & there are no winners
