Lesley Riddoch: The Government should be welcoming community wind farm bid The Cowal Community Energy group – recently rejected by Forestry Land Scotland (FLS) from taking on the lease to run a large-scale wind farm –…

Scottish communities could get £3m a year if they run wind farms instead of £56k pa from commercial companies who win the leases instead. Which should it be? C'mon Scottish Government. This could be a revolution for rural Scotland. www.thenational.scot/politics/250...

Kaye Adams is the latest BBC Scotland presenter to deliberately mislead the public by conflating the Dundee University scandal with free tuition. The Dundee University funding issue was caused by financial mismanagement. It has nothing to do with free tuition. More BBC propaganda.

And so it came to pass, that it mattered not one fuck who won the last election.

Wow

The RED weather warning we have today is very serious. There are extensive school closures, transport disruption and many dangers from the strong wind.

Police Scotland have issued ‘do not travel’ advice.

Please follow all of the advice and stay safe. #StormEowyn

There’s 358 fascists in Bannockburn.
How depressing.

A good result for the SNP in Bannockburn but also a nod towards the ‘nobody votes for Reform UK in Scotland’ brigade.
Farage’s far-right mob almost pipped Labour for second and took 22% of 1st preference votes in the Stirlingshire neighbourhood.

Bannockburn (Stirling) by-election first preferences:

SNP: 565 (35.9%, +7.2)
Labour: 376 (23.9%, +3.1)
Reform UK: 358 (22.7%, new)
Conservative: 169 (10.7%, -8.4)
Lib Dem: 55 (3.5%, +1.4)
Green: 53 (3.4%, +1.0)
(Note: Ind got 26%, Family 1.1% in 2022)

SNP elected Stage 6.

Collapse of Conservative vote as Bannockburn's racists move to Reform.

Labour has been in power in Wales for over 25 years.
This is the reality of their NHS that Dame Jackie Baillie turns a blind eye to.
Pay attention Scotland

👏 The SNP has won the Bannockburn by-election! Congratulations to Bob Buchanan and the rest of his campaign team.

📢 Our Budget delivers progress for Scotland:

💷 Record £21 billion for our NHS
🏠 8,000 new affordable homes
❄️ Winter Heating Payment for every pensioner household
✂️ Ending Labour’s two-child cap, lifting 15,000 kids out of poverty
🎭 £34m boost for Scotland’s culture

Scotland's trains shut down by a red weather event.
In a few months time, political parties based in another country will "blame" the SNP Scottish Govt for compensation being paid to the disrupted travellers.
UK unionists in Scotland find false grievance in literally everything. 🤦

The apologists for Musk's Nazi salute have strong Gerard Houllier 'He was pretending to eat grass, he does it all the time in training' vibes.
