The day before Devolution came into force with the reconvening of the Scottish Parliament, the uk Labour Gov ‘changed’ the maritime border between Scotland and England
This was done to reduce the GDP of Scotland, by ‘moving’ several oil fields to England
Labour take Scots for absolute mugs

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
This is the most important thing you will read today – and probably the whole year, honestly.
We cannot let the AMOC collapse. For one thing it will make Iceland uninhabitable, and I would really like my children and grandchildren not to become refugees. But the effects will be almost everywhere.
“We [the Scottish Government] continue to be ahead of the UK as a whole in delivering long term emissions reductions - SNP 2026 manifesto. Fact checked by The Ferret and found to be TRUE: www.theferret.scot/claim-scotla...
NEW: Richard Tice failed to pay almost £100,000 in corporation tax, benefiting his investment company which made large donations to Reform UK.
First time Reform's deputy leader's tax affairs can be directly linked to finances of Nigel Farage's party.
Still YES then, YES now, AYE 'til I die. 🏴
It's TIME for #ScottishIndependence and I'll vote SNP 'til then.
We are within touching distance of an SNP majority and securing a referendum on independence, and the power is in your hands.
Don’t sit this opportunity out. Make sure you are registered to vote - the deadline is midnight tomorrow.

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”.
Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform
Read me in @ScotNational on the hysteria following the SNP's bid to make food more affordable ...
When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.
pope tweets good
Why has BBC Scotland Or the MSM NOT asked Offord about Tice’s tax dodging & whether he has ever used similar strategies?
Absolute deranged twats
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.
My latest blog piece. We can win an SNP majority despite the relentless hysteria of the anti-independence media in Scotland.

Today, we wrote to Nigel Farage following a string of stories in recent weeks exposing Reform candidates pushing Covid and vaccine conspiracy theories.
We are calling on him to remove any candidate found to have promoted these views.

The INDEPENDENT GREEN VOICE is a totally different party to the Scottish Green party and designed to confuse.
Both are only on the Regional list.
Do not confuse the two and vote for the wrong one.
If voting Green make sure you vote for the right Green party - that's the "SCOTTISH GREEN PARTY"
Farage thugs manhandle man with pacemaker after he objects to the Reform leader's chauffeur parking in disabled bay that he needs to use.
Lovely People.

Despite Sarwar's furious denials, there is plenty of evidence Labour in Scotland is prepared to do a deal with Reform, and it has all been detailed in the same Scottish media which today is giving Sarwar a platform from which to clutch his pearls.

Offord doubles down on his claim about Anas Sarwar approaching him to say Labour and Reform must work together, and is backed up by a witness to the conversation.
www.thenational.scot/news/2602395...
Vote Labour, get Farage's Reform.
Has this old prick not got a few more things to worry about than Scotland’s third largest city?
Busted.
Anas Sarwar approached Reform’s leader asking to form an alliance against the SNP.
Source: Reform’s leader.
Wes Streeting's arrogant dismissal of the right of the people of Scotland to decide Scotland's future for themselves will backfire badly on the Labour party. He's destroyed Sarwar's already faltering campaign and made an SNP majority more likely.

In swedish news:
"And many Hungarians went to the polls. By early evening, voter turnout had broken all records with 77.8 %"
SEE!!! It works if people ACTUALLY shows up to vote! VOTE AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPEND ON IT BECAUSE IT DOES!
“It’s deeply shocking that Reform has developed such close ties with Orbán’s regime, an authoritarian govt with an appalling record of rolling back democracy and civic rights”
Where ‘deeply shocking’ = entirely on brand.
Hungary shows us we must never give them power.

Free prescriptions, free tuition, publicly owned rail and publicly owned water are worth standing up for.
On May 7th, make it both votes SNP for a government that's on your side. #BBCDN #BothVotesSNP
Don't get me wrong, he's a horrid little shit in the pockets of private healthcare and bigots.
But at least he's being honest.
There are no circumstances in which the UK would "give" Scotland a referendum.
"Give"
Give. What a ****.
Weasel Wes Streeting being absolutely adamant that Scotland cannot have independence and the UK is not a voluntary union
He can GTF
#VoteSNP
