Scottish Hospitality, the FACTS, for unenlightened, Tory Scots.

In 2026, Scotland will contribute £14,000,000,000 to Westminster, in VAT. Up a THIRD, in just 5 years.

All direct to England.

This is just VAT. Ludicrous Alcohol Duty is over-and-above this!

An EASY fix is...Scottish Independence.

Acorn carbon capture in limbo. Fishing areas short changed. WASPIs conned. Meanwhile billions into English steel. carbon capture and fishing communities. What are they for?

Scotland 'matches France for food and drink export value', figures show Scotland's food and drink export value per capita stands “shoulder-to-shoulder” with some of Europe’s biggest economies and outperforms…

In 2024, Scotland exported £7.14 billion worth of food & drink, equivalent to £1288 per person. By contrast, England exported £12.12bn, £207 per person. Scotland’s food and drink exports per head are more than six times England’s, and on a par with France.

Nadhim Zahawi covered up and lied about £3m in unpaid tax for 6 years.

If he's looking for criminals he only needs a mirror.

Is anyone from the government now going to resign over wasting £millions arresting and prosecuting decent people for opposing genocide? I think we all know the answer.

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 won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

There's a one hour special on Nigel Farage and Reform UK, and whether they are ready to lead, on BBC2

Presumably, there will be a similar one hour special on Zack Polanski, and whether The Greens are ready to lead, as well?

This proves the system is evil.

HMRC are giving 1 million people a £100 penalty for filing their tax returns late, even if they don't owe ANY tax.

Nadhim Zahawi dodged £3m in tax and repeatedly lied about it for 6 years.

All HMRC did was make him pay the interest on it.

Hard on you, a joke for them.

Today, Wes Streeting, that consummate chameleon of British politics, is doing his best to distance himself from Peter Mandelson. Quite the change of tune from less than five months ago. www.thenational.scot/news/2545164...

It's rare to see how lobbyists operate. But the Epstein-Mandelson correspondence shows us what happens all the time: plutocrats and government ministers conspiring against the public interest. This is why all lobbying should be in the public domain, but despite Labour and Con promises, it's not. 🧵
