So 🏴, if we were already independent would we

Will you work with all other independence parties/groups to achieve this?
Tacky as fuck
Yes
Israel plans to take over Gaza City. Starmer says their plan is wrong & they must rethink it, but the UK is still supporting Israel with arms sales, training, RAF surveillance flights & more. Sign the petition: tell Keir he MUST end this support: 38d.gs/hwpb?utm_cam...
People have forgotten because it was so long ago but the 1880's-1930's were crippled by mass strikes, workers walkouts and even full scale revolutions.
Only because of these were your Rights, which are now being destroyed, won.
16% of UK adults have no savings. 39% have less than £1,000.
Can't build economy on that.
Work doesn't pay enough. 37% of universal credit claimants are in work.
Neoliberals push wage/benefit cuts.
1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined.
Must redistribute.
Often it is the law that is wrong.
Rich man's war, poor man's fight
Rich men in suits are trying to drag the sons and daughters of working people into another avoidable war.
All the while the same suits watch on as their stocks and shares in the arms industry go up 💰 ⬆️
Italy court sends 11 executives at a chemical plant to jail terms of up to 17 years for polluting water, a total of more than 141 years.
Puts UK to shame.
UK buries corporate crimes - water, Post Office, Grenfell, infected blood, bank frauds.
Govts/Regulators serve corporations, not people.
111 BBC staff have signed a letter to their bosses saying "The BBC is often performing PR for Israel." and it is unacceptable.
Why is this allowed?
The BBC Board should be fired today.
Like/RT if you agree.
Corporate Welfare
2012-2027: £11bn subsidy for Drax, produces electricity by burning trees at double the price from gas.
2024 operating profit £1.06bn £869m subsidy.
£97m dividend paid; £300m share buyback.
Will get free money until 2031. No means testing.
Contrast with welfare of people.
We are just preparing to submit ours. It's a long drawn out form, probably to try and put people off. Hopefully we'll be successful. Keep doing what you do, we need more people with your energy and fight Siobhan ✊
Help me boost my Bluesky account
Im a Nurse activist in the UK fighting for pay restoration and better conditions for NHS workers.
Give me a follow, I follow back ALL legit accounts
Holler if I've missed you
Reeves expected to freeze income tax thresholds to raise funds after welfare U-turn. Why blame the poor?
Govt has numerous choices:
Tax capital gains, dividends at the same rate as wages
Reduce pension tax relief to the ultra rich
Increase NIC for ultra-rich.
Wealth tax
FTT
Cut corporate welfare
The word antisemitic has been so misused and abused that they have flogged it to death, rendering it almost ineffective in the case of Israel.
What is really holding back incomes in the UK? youtu.be/ni6jFvWlrec?... The Resolution Foundation says UK incomes will flatline until 2030. This isn’t an accident—it’s by design. High interest rates, unfair taxes, and Labour's inaction are crushing incomes and deepening inequality. We need change.
We can't let Donald Trump rope us into another war in the Middle East. Join me today and tell Keir Starmer: don't get dragged into conflict with Iran by Donald Trump: 38d.gs/njtm
Rich man's war, poor man's fight 😥
The Government is planning to roll out mandatory digital ID. It’s invasive and could mean millions of people unable to go about their daily lives. Right now it's just an idea - we need to stop it becoming a reality. Join me and sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/re...
Who do you want to decide the government of Scotland?
Who do you want to decide the government of #Scotland?
Lobbying should be outlawed
World leaders can make as many statements as they like opposing Israel's actions in Gaza.
Until they end the sale of weapons to Israel, they remain complicit in the mass murder of Palestinians.
Stop arming genocide, now.
We can't afford them and we certainly don't need them. Thieves every one of them
Greed
Trump is ramping up his trade wars and crashing the global economy. He's not sparing the UK from his new tariffs, so why should we roll out the red carpet for him with a second state visit? Join more than 200,000 of us and add your name to he petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
