A wee bit of perspective... Westminster keeps its nukes in Faslane because Scots are expendable...it seems.

is it still news that Nigel Farage applied for a German passport the same year he applied for an Irish passport? 2016.

Turns out the 'devastated' shop owner who was having a right go at @StephenFlynnSNP on @STVNews tonight is a Tory: nitter.cf/ammacj/status/21148293… Social media gets a lot of justified criticism but it also has its very positive uses e.g. it helps to uncover the cover ups!
Here is the same teary Largs shop owner who was being comforted by @stvnews @vanessataaffe today, not looking so teary when she’s grinning with her Tory branch manager👇 The very same afternoon. She is a Tory activist and candidate.

Oxford Prof says 'The biggest success story in social policy in the UK for 40 years. Stunning. The biggest fall in child poverty anywhere in Europe for at least 40 years. Right here, done here.' in Scotland' - had you heard this from 'our' media before today?

Gary Robertson didn't like it one bit when Jenny Gilruth had a cheeky dig at him for concealing the fact that the Easdale brothers are Labour party donors. He immediately interrupted because his ego couldn't take it. He really hates being shown up.

Scots already receive free home care so there is no benefit for us from having the triple lock removed. There is also no extra money involved so no Barnett consequentials

Worth posting this again.
Scottish Labour almost bankrupted Glasgow over the equal pay fiasco. It has cost the city £770m to date, but the long term financial cost is not yet known. For those unfamiliar with the scandal, here is a summary. It shames Scottish Labour and its trade union partners.

A reminder of Labour’s Streeting, Sarwar, Poynton, Marra, Shanks, all rebuked by UK Office for Statistics Regulation.👇 For repeatedly lying about Scottish NHS. Almost all media ignored it.
In March, UK Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR) wrote to Labour MSP Michael Marra about his lies on Scottish NHS waiting times.👇 OSR had also criticised Labour’s Michael Shanks MP for lying.👇 Today, OSR criticise Wes Streeting, Anas Sarwar, Gregor Poynton for similar lies👇

The British establishment knows that independence is now inevitable. The next Indyref will be a ratification Indyref. There will be no 'Project Fear'. That was a once only campaign that history now exposed as a fraud. We're in end game. The BBC is crumbling. British Nationalism is becoming increasingly ugly. It'll toxify Labour and the Tories the way Thatcher toxified the Tories in the 70s. When will independence happen? Our guess is fifteen years from now unless there's a Reform style upsurge at Westminster which could accelerate it or Ireland unifies which will also accelerate it.

Today seems an apt time to post a short video containing some of the lies Anas Sarwar told during the general election. Labour will save Grangemouth jobs Labour will invest in Grangemouth Labour will lower energy bills Labour will create 69,000 jobs No austerity under Labour

John Swinney has reflected on Andy Burnham's 'lecturing tour' which left out Scotland, stating that the Prime Minister has to 'adjust to the reality' that the UK 'falling apart' 🗣️ 'It's not just me that's involved in that discussion and that argument. It's also Northern Ireland. It's also Wales'

Scottish Labour and Anas Sarwar summed up in two videos. Sarwar first describes the House of Lords as unacceptable and calls for it to be abolished. When voters reject him he grabs the opportunity to become a member. Scottish Labour is a gravy train for self-serving charlatans. Never, ever vote for it. Never, ever believe what Scottish Labour politicians say.
