Yes, but the media makes sure that most Scots don’t know any of that. Which allows Sarwar to spin his lies. I just wish the SNP would call him out on it.

Anas Sarwar says he’ll fix NHS Scotland. And it seems he’ll do this by … slashing the NHS budget.
Don’t trust this man.

Vote Lib Dem to ensure that Scotland is removed from existence?
I’m not sure that’s the vote winner he thinks it is.
Anas Sarwar telling a lie? I’m shocked. Not.
But you’d think football clubs would know better than to allow politicians to promote their Party inside a stadium.

Not only have disabled drivers seen the Motability scheme heavily curtailed, now the scheme demands they use an app which tracks their every movement, even when not driving. Big Brother is here.

If the #JCB Family of Multi-Millionaires are so hard up to pay proper Inheritance Taxes, why are they able to donate SO MUCH MONEY to #Reform Party?
Oh ... so they have expectations of #Reform helping out the Multi-Millionaires?
Right. Noted.
"Party of the People", eh?🤮🤮
J D Vance, afttterr telling the Pope to stick to morality issues, has now warned him to be careful when discussing theology.
Sorry. What?
Discussing theology is what a Pope should be doing.
Even if Sarwar denies that he wants a pact with Reform Ltd, remember he denied Labour would do deals with Tories but promptly went into coalition in several Councils. Don’t trust him.

So J D Vance says the Pope should stick to morality.
Should we infer from that comment that the USA has no interest in morality?
New blog post, recounting a recent excellent experience with NHS Scotland, and the rather sad responses from those of a Unionist persuasion.

Where do these direct orders originate?
If it’s the BBC Board it’s bad enough; and there’s one set of questions to be answered.
If it’s UKGOV, there are even more questions.
Either way, defending Israel is complicity in genocide. Anyhow we watch Al Jazeera for reliable international news

Alexa, show me an example of outrageous hypocrisy.

Oil prices are falling. No doubt petrol prices at the pump will immediately follow.
No, I don’t believe that either.
In Scotland, actualy finding a petrol station with supplies is a bonus. That’s what happens when your only refinery is closed down.
Scotch Whisky alone is 25% of ALL UK Food and Drink Exports.
50% of ALL UK Renewable Energy is produced in Scotland.
We only have 8% of the UK Population. Relatively tiny.
We'll generate £14 Billion in VAT in 2026.
Independent Scotland would be one of the Richest Countries in Europe.
It's time.
Trump didn’t suddenly start lying last week, he’s always lied to you … about everything.
You didn’t care then because you were not harmed by the lies and stood to benefit.
Wonder what’s changed?
I think the hardest part of the current political climate is realizing how many people are actually just evil. Not misinformed or uneducated... just openly and happily enjoying other people's suffering.
The UK’s London-based mainstream media are colluding with Keir Starmer’s & Yvette Cooper’s “We’re supporting defensive action” deception, thereby endorsing Labour’s lie that the British Gov’t isn’t complicit in US war crimes in Iran. But the Scottish media is telling the truth.👏
For the 1,000 time, North Sea oil is sold on globally at market prices.
The only way pumping more could lower prices for us is if we nationalise the energy companies and take our oil off the market.
I'm all ears if Badenoch and Farage want to have that conversation😉
You’ll be shocked to learn that the Electoral Commission has done nothing to stop a right wing group from trying to con voters by misleading them. Watch out for this bunch when you vote.

I bet the BBC will be all over this. Police found no evidence to support Reform Ltd’s claims of family voting in recent by-election. There must be some other reason they lost.

The thing to remember about Sarwar denying he will go into a coalition with Reform Ltd is that he promised Labour wouldn’t go into coalition with Tories after the last Council elections. He lied.
What to try if Apple’s Age Verification process isn’t working for you.
Weirdly, they don’t accept a passport as proof of age. That needs to change.

Have I got this right? Building a massive Chinese embassy is fine, but building a Chinese-funded wind turbine factory in Scotland is a national security risk?
Call me a cynic, but it’s almost as if Westminster wants to ensure Scotland can’t grow its economy. Remember Grangemouth?
As Orwell said: war is peace.
Scottish Labour would let controversial tech giant Palantir 'gain control of our health data', an MP has told The National

Did you see on the news that Scots are twice as satisfied with A&E and dentistry than other parts of the UK? No, neither did I.
It seems Trump’s advisors expected the Iranian people to overthrow the regime once the bombing started. But was that based on flawed data which was backed by well-known peace advocate,Tony Blair?
