FM John Swinney has “politely” turned down an invitation from Donald Trump to attend a state banquet at the White House next week, the Scottish Government has confirmed. 👇

A draft dodger is arresting war veterans for protesting his illegal war with Iran. Remember in November.
For someone who said…
“Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?”
Why is he still talking about the 2020 election?!
Asking for a friend
a Scottish branch office Labour MP called for the pension triple lock to be cut to help pay for defence spending.
His name Graeme Downie. the Labour MP for Dunfermline and Dollar. He wrote this weekend that pensioners who benefited financially from peace" should make a greater contributions 👇
Al Gore:
“This is the most corrupt administration not only in American history, but more corrupt than I could ever have imagined a president would be able to get away with to the extent that he has. It’s shocking to me.”
On the 4th April 2025 Anas Sarwar called in to see Peter Mandelson the recently appointed UK Ambassador to the USA.
Stating 'It was great to catch up with my old friend and the UK new ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson'
How did Anas Sarwar become an old friend of Peter Mandelson?

BBC News December 2024:
‘Farage has meanwhile said that he "might disagree with Mandelson on his politics, but he's a very intelligent man" and would be good choice for ambassador.’
Palantir in the NHS is linked to Mandelson
Mandelson is linked to Wes Streeting
Wes Streeting is defending Palantir’s involvement in the #NHS
Nothing to see or everything to see
Palantir must be removed from the NHS
RFK Jr. is the perfect example of someone striving to create a "master race" that he would not be allowed to be a part of.
x.com/i/status/204... Reform in interview saying that Sarwar asked him 3 times for a coalition against SNP in May 7th elections.
A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.
Virginia! Today is the last day to vote in the redistricting referendum.

The US government is a terrorist organization and must be overthrown so democracy may return one day 🇺🇸
Not a President……a terrorist!
Trump and his sons have enriched themselves by over 4 Billion dollars since he came into office
This is by FAR the most corrupt administration ever
Reminder: Trump essentially stated “we can’t take care of Americans while spending billions on new wars.”
This can’t be more opposite to his campaign promises of “No more wars” and “America first.”
Has it dawned on any of you MAGAs yet that Trump does nothing but lie?
Labour, Tory MPs & Lords & their pals in the corrupt media are ‘outraged’ that the SNP are trying to make a few basic staple foods more affordable to people with low incomes. Yet the same London elite are dining every day on *SUBSIDISED* quality meals served to them. No wonder people are angry.
For all the publicity it will certainly receive in the indy and SNP hating Scottish media, the cynically timed publication of Joanna Cherry's book will have minimal effect on the Holyrood election. Not as many people as she thinks care about her feud with Nicola Sturgeon.
Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.
Our campaign bus is on the road - launched in Dundee and heading to Aberdeen.
From a £2 bus fare cap to tackling soaring food prices and expanding childcare, we will deliver practical help with the cost of living and bring hope with the fresh start of independence. 🏴

Farage has accepted £675,000 – a third of his income – from foreign sources since becoming an MP.

My husband's British passport arrived today. It's been almost eight years since we first applied for a spouse visa for him. The whole process has cost over £17,000 to get to this point but his status in the UK is finally Farage proof. Another new Scot who will vote for independence.
So voting for Labour in Scotland isn't a vote for/endorsement of Starmer? Utter nonsense! Scottish Labour is a branch office of Starmer's party. There is no separate party in Scotland.
It's no surprise really: Sarwar opened his mouth... and more lies came out.
Photo of researcher in hat talking to pensioner with baseball cap on… Dave Taylor (left) debates the local elections with John Doult, who says he will vote Reform at the upcoming local elections in Swindon (The Independent)
But on a visit to the former railway town last month, the outlook for Sir Keir and his party was bleak. "I'll be voting for Reform - it can't get any worse," said pensioner John Doult, until now a lifelong Labour voter who was among the thousands employed in the town's once-famous car industry. The 86-year-old bemoaned the "terrible" state of the town centre,
“I’ll be voting for Reform - it can’t get any worse”
Oh it really can.
You put a bunch of corrupt, racist, incompetent, lying Trumpists in charge and things will get very much worse.
Potholes and empty shops will feel unimportant compared to the loss of the NHS, social care and a torched economy.
Trump reminds me of serial killers who love to see themselves portrayed in the media and how they are outsmarting the police.
Absolutely 👇
A Scottish Daily Mail article by Michael Blackley, telling us 'Scotland's now bust' and generally yammering on about us being rubbish.
'The gap between the Scottish electorate and the Scottish commentariat is now a chasm, and it’s mind-defying that it’s even possible that we challenge the orthodoxy of the political message we are bombarded with from every side very single day.'
