Independence is normal! Apparently holding that view makes me an extremist. So be it 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Get this shared everywhere. This is really massive believe me. The hypocrisy is off the scale. Scotland needs out as a priority in 26. This is what’s allowed in England 👇🏼you see this Scotland?🤔

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Wales just received £50million with no strings attached. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland is offered £20million but has to confirm £10million and Westminster dictates how and where it’s spent. 🇬🇧 Does England really think this will appease Scottish voters or do they even care?

Not sure people are grasping this. Israel and the US were too chicken to send warships through the Strait of Hormuz so they begged Europe, expecting our warships to be bombed instead of theirs. They wanted our sailors to die on their behalf in the war they fucking started.

🇫🇷 A French general just said joining Trump’s coalition is like buying a ticket to dinner and dancing on the Titanic – the evening after it hit the iceberg. That’s not a metaphor. That’s a military assessment. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

BBC Scotland gave headline news coverage to criticism of the Scottish Govt over a FOI request. What coverage will it give to this news? Zero coverage.
NEW: The BBC has broken the law by failing to give a “substantive response” to a FOI request asking if and when calls on BBC-issued mobile phones took place between its top brass and the Israeli embassy at the height of Israel's genocide in Gaza.

My latest in @declassifiedUK is a shocking story of incompetence, malfeasance, and unlawful behaviour: Britain's Ministry of Defence paid £1.5 billion for drones which kept crashing and couldn't fly in bad weather. The contract was awarded to Israel's largest arms firm Elbit Systems and Thales from France. Those companies squeezed the MoD for years, with the drones costing £88,400 per flying hour and executives charging £18,000 a month for hotels. Meanwhile, Elbit and Thales produced an export variant of the same drone and signed a £400 million contract to sell them to Romania. Despite everything, they were assisted by the UK government, which subsidised the production of those drones and promised to support export licenses. Shipping documents expose how dozens of drone components have been sent from Britain to Israel since the contract with Romania was signed - but they haven't been onward exported to Romania. And open-source evidence now strongly suggests Elbit has been testing the drones in the illegally occupied Golan Heights, likely breaching UK export law. Full story👇 declassifieduk.org/how-a-fai…

🇬🇧 Compare these recently announced UK Defence Growth Deals: 🤨 Wales, Portsmouth & Yorkshire - £50m with no strings attached. ❓ Scotland - £20m with a requirement for £10m match funding from Scot Gov. 🥀 Labour are an utter disgrace!

Same headline, same reporter, different profession, 2 months apart, neither of them true. BBC Scotland news making up Scotland is shite stories yet again.

Watch as ITV News reveals Scotland has the lowest level of corridor care in the whole UK ... Wales, run by Labour for 26 years, has the highest. Would @AnasSarwar or @jackiebmsp care to comment?

Incredibly, this BBC report 👆on the Glasgow fire repeats Anas Sarwar’s ‘fire appliances from Edinburgh’ deception, without saying Sarwar was called ‘inaccurate and alarmist’ by the Scottish Fire & Rescue Service. @clairethomson01

In the U.K. we are thankfully not run by a dictatorship Or a Parliament of sycophants He’s blocked the strait with his own incompetence Now he wants to coerce allies to join his illegal war.
Keir Starmer today officially announced he would not fondle Trump's balls.

What's going on with Gary Robertson? He was positively manic when interviewing John Swinney on The Sunday Show. Ultra-rapid speech and staccato style interruptions that offered no time for points to be considered far less completed. Someone needs to calm him down.

I was hoping The First Minister would just say ...Do you know what Gary...If you ask me here and are not going to let me answer or finish then there's no point in me being here and get up and walk

(Read in your best Attenborough voice) Here we see the Rapey-Pedo creature all alone, frustrated and isolated, awaiting his nappy changer, in the fit of a temper tantrum. Soon, he will have to reapply his orange war paint to reaffirm his dominance among his pack.

A Union of 4 equal partners. That's the UK message. 3 are the so called devolved nations. One has the UK Gov. Starmer." We will do things directly in the devolved nations whether they like it or not". That's UK equality. England is the boss. The colonial master. That's reality.
