Did you know that since the SNP nationalised Scotrail it has helped to contribute £4Bn to the Scottish economy, instead of paying out dividends to rich shareholders?

How come the things the public don’t know about SNP are good things and the things they don’t know about the Unionist Parties are bad things? Eg SNP rely on Members subs whilst Labour takes corporate donations and Reform has 3 major funders per Peter Geoghegan’s excellent report on party funding. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Meanwhile, parties like the SNP, Scottish Greens and English and Welsh Greens rely on moderate donations from ordinary people. How is this a level playing field? It's not. Its highest bidder owns the government.

The SNP has mitigated £1,128,489 in Bedroom Tax across Aberdeen City so far this year.

This will help to protect families, support communities and shows a commitment to stand against the unfair Tory & Labour policy.

Rachel Reeves denies breaking Labour pledge and misleading public on Budget The chancellor also says she was very upfront about the need to find extra money to deliver on the government's pledges.

Reeves and UK government called an uneccessary emergency press conference before the budget - political theatre for their own disgruntled backbenchers and public. It was misleading, and now government on back foot, appearing shifty and looking like inept bunglers.

Labour came in promising to cut energy bills by £300. Now they’re almost £200 higher, and they trumpet a change that won’t even cover the increase since they took office.

Is this really it??

Scotland deserves better than this chaos. A fresh start with independence. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Labour’s doomed attempt to paint the SNP as a threat to national security The oil is running out, all the banks will leave, you won’t have a pension, you can’t use the pound, the EU won’t let you back in, and now we have – the SNP are a threat to …

My latest blog piece, about the recent attempts by the Labour party to paint the SNP and the Scottish Government as a threat to national security due to their opposition to nukes on the Clyde.

SCAM ALERT!

Labour pledges to Aberdeen are a scam.

I,000s of GB Energy jobs were promised for the city.

Only 13 posts have been filled.

Good news!

The new Anterior Eye Service, part of yiur SNP Scottish Government’s record £139 million investment in eye care this year, will support approved IP optometrists to treat nine complex eye conditions which normally require a hospital visit.

In 14 months, the UK Labour government has faced missteps, ministerial sackings, resignations, reshuffles, and repeated resets. While these are undeniably challenging times, it’s hard to escape the conclusion that the government — and the Prime Minister — are simply not up to the task.

The #Westminsterbubble is revelling in the #Rayner drama and #reshuffle. It's gossip-fuelled, personality-driven politics at its most absurd. BBC's Chris Mason is practically fizzing with excitement — perfectly matching the shallowness of it all

A Train Through the Highlands and the Need for New Scots I was recently on the train from Glasgow to Oban, winding through the West Highlands. Across from me sat a couple from the United States, wide-eyed and reverent.

Progressive economic choices, Scottish Highlands, colonisation and why Scotland needs migrants.

BBC Scotland has never in its history, been as conspiratorially biased in favour of the Union as it is now. It is worse now than during the run up to the 2014 referendum.
It now no more than a dedicated and fully committed Unionist propaganda channel.

Listen son, don't tell anyone but we know, we know that every public service in Scotland is doing better than they are in England or Wales. Of course they are. Look at the facts that daft prof Robertson has posted every day since we tried to get him sacked more than 10 years ago.

UK will recognise Palestinian state in September unless Israel agrees to Gaza ceasefire and other conditions - live updates Starmer says the UK will take the step at a UN meeting unless Israel makes

BBC News - www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd...
UK prevaricates on recognising Palestinian state. Third of UK parliamentary MPs demand recognition of Palestinian State (France has done this), but Starmer is haplessly indecisive, so refuses to make the pledge and ends up in yet another middling muddle.

You've got to love Stephen Flynn standing up for Scotland on the floor of the Wehatescotsminster, his honesty and integrity a breath of fresh air against the stale lies and mistruths from the benches opposite.
Change of government, no change in attitude.
Decolonisation is needed now 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The country a Prime Minister who is straining to look in command, statesmanlike and 'on it'. Meanwhile he has policy flip flopped, is wooden with no style and his Party is in an internal struggle. Almost everyday members are leaving, old and new MPs are losing whip. Its chaotic, moving to shambles

How much tax do Britain’s billionaires pay? HMRC has no idea, damning report finds The finding comes amid growing calls for a wealth tax among Labour MPs

Deary me! UK Revenue department doesn't know how many billionaires pay tax in UK. But it will know exactly how many all the rest do!

Politics is about priorities. UK government shows theirs.
www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

We live in times of huge economic, social and environmental and democratic crises. We need bold progressive governments who say as it is. What the world is getting are centre right/right wing governments, virtue signalling, promising better futures whilst toadying to wealth and corporate might.

Starmer is not a great politician, So no surprise - he is a rotten diplomat. Lurching between extreme toadying, spinning most anodyne meetings into sommat of historic importance or expressing some middling non commital position that isn't remotely feasible and/or doesnt exist.
