In Scotland we only have the choice of a British media. When it comes to politics its opinion is entirely gauged through the lense of England where its based. Scotland is quite different - as this latest YouGov poll neatly illustrates.

Only independence will address this.

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH:

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."

Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."

djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."

And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

I know Greta Thunberg said the story isn't about her.

But it's really important she speaks out and tells exactly what abuse she received.

When the world sees what Israel is capable of doing to her, they will know the horrors they inflict on Palestinians are all true.

Not a single adoption inquiry yet for Baby Sneffels & Baby Ferrata πŸ˜ΏπŸ™€

It’s so unusual πŸ€” Guessing high supply/low demand:
* Shelters are overflowing right now
* People are hunkering down & saying β€œnot now”
* Maybe folks just aren’t aware how adorably perfect this bonded pair is?!? 😻

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

Being accountable to an international court means our Government has to answer to them if it tries to undermine your human rights. Be very suspicious of any UK politician who wants to remove that check on their powers.

Share this and speak up for your freedoms.

Jim Murphy makes millions through lobbying firm after Keir Starmer came to power FORMER Scottish Labour leader Jim Murphy has made millions of pounds through his public affairs firm since Keir Starmer came to power

Lobbying is legalised bribery. It's based on myriad lies.

Jim was a mainstay of the #bettertogether movement.

Which was based on myriad lies.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity Developing countries lead the historic clean energy charge but the US and EU rely more on fossil fuels than before, a think tank study shows.

Scotland produces 50% of the vastly bigger UK's Renewables.

There is no argument against Scottish Independence.

Nigel Farage is owned by Russia. Vote Leave was illegally financed by Russia. Brexit was and is a Russian active measure to harm Britain and its home in Europe.
