If someone was alleged to have pinched Β£500,000+ from Labour funding, how likely is it the UK media would try to blame the Labour Party? The answer is, of course, that they wouldn't. Such coverage is specially reserved for one specific Scottish party.

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

Anyone who thinks this is Anas Sarwar putting 'country before party' needs their damn head examining. This is Anas Sarwar putting his own ludicrous hopes of becoming Scotland's First Minister ahead of both his party and country

The London commentariat are frankly embarrassing on any Scottish issue.

Vote Scotland - Indy PosterBoy The only political parties opposed to Scottish independence are based in, controlled by, and largely funded from, another country.

Anas Sarwar says today of Peter Mandelson: β€œI'm utterly disgusted and furious about the entire situation … He never should have been the ambassador to the US.”

For context, here’s Sarwar in April 2025 love-bombing his β€˜old friend’.

They think we are stupid.

He is an amoral opportunistic chancer.

Good morning Scotland.
Our nation's independence is our children's ticket to a brighter, fairer, healthier, stronger future. We win for them.
Let's make this happen.

Latest figures out today show Scotland’s unemployment rate fell to 3.7%, and is below the UK rate of 5.1%.

If Scotland can do this with limited economic powers, imagine what more we could do if we had the full powers of independence.

'With a chaotic Labour government doing its best to mimic Farage and Reform, and with the real prospect of a far right UK government that Scotland didn’t vote for, independence has never been more vital'

Scotland can remain as part of the UK, with Nigel Farage and a load of ex Tories.

Or: Retain Β£14 billion in VAT payments and also have the cheapest Energy in Europe, as a rich European economy.

It's a tough one, for rational Scottish people.

It was a bloody, unconstitutional, illegal armed rebellion and insurrection that killed or maimed many and was orchestrated by Donald Trump and his top allies in and out of Congressβ€”and history will for centuries express astonishment that Trump wasn't imprisoned for life over it.

New research reveals the best attack lines to use against Reform How to stop Farage...

"Farage’s shtick is to pose as a champion of the working man, fighting against out-of-touch elites and corrupt institutions. But . . Reform isn’t a grassroots rebellion; it’s a vehicle bankrolled by the financiers who crashed the economy in 2008 . . "

A very long and important THREAD -

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.

And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.

Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

Sadly I think Farage is unstoppable in England which means almost everything social democrats believe in will be reversed, net zero scrapped, NHS privatised etc. Scotland's only chance to avoid this is independence. You & your colleagues need to think hard now about what your priorities should be.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.

Yesterday, we noted that this image β€” file 468 β€” likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.

Now, it’s gone.
