SNP should absolutely demand devolution of broadcasting and retention of more licence fee money raised in Scotland. We know they won’t though, which is very telling.

🫣 Scotland is surrounded by countries of a similar size that are richer, happier and fairer than we are. 🚪 The promises made in 2014 have unravelled. The case for independence is stronger than ever.

😬 As recently as May, when asked if he would ever accept a peerage, Anas Sarwar stated bluntly: “No.” 🤥 He has now joined a long list of unelected Labour lords. It’s time for these charlatans to be shown the door. 🗑️ Scrap the Lords.

Good morning Monday, and another day nearer independence. Living under England’s devolution is abnormal.

Clean energy projects in Scotland are set to pay £1 billion to use the UK’s electricity network while projects south of the border will be paid to connect. First they fuck us over then they charge us a billion quid for the privilege. thenational.scot/news/261728…

25th May - Holyrood voted for a Referendum. 12mins later... 25th May - Downing Street refused a referendum. Has the SNP leadership taken any other steps since ? ...

Any sign of Starmer’s criminal pledge of £200 million investment from the UK’s National Wealth Fund to support our Grangemouth site? I thought not. These are the thieving radges we let plunder our resources and revenue. They are our political enemies. It has to end!!!!!!

A wee lesson on how colonialist economics work for all the gullible yoons who support and defend another country who are asset-stripping us. I suspect this will go right over their brainwashed heads, but we live in hope.

WHO THE FCUK?.. Has appointed Farage’s Nazis to chair important Committees in our Parliament? This ridiculous anomaly must be addressed when SELECTED and UNELECTED people are chairing Committees instead of DIRECTLY ELECTED MEMBERS.

So Andrew Bowie wants an inquiry into the SNP finances. OK, put it in the queue and do it after his inquiry into, the £37b test and trace fiasco, the PPE VIP lane scandal, and the £7b covid loans written off by the tories! #BBCSundayShow

In her attack on Sturgeon, Rosena Allin-Khan declares of herself & fellow panellist Jeremy Hunt, "for hard working MPs like myself & Jeremy.. trustworthy, reliable" Hunt, who as a Tory cabinet minister exploited a Tory tax loophole to buy 7 luxury flats & then didn't declare it.

Make no mistake, if you are for Scottish independence, the British media will come after you more ferocious and relentless than if you're an English nationalist peddling hate and receiving millions in dodgy donations.
