Wants to hold a ref next year on cutting Scotland off from our expansive UK tax base, from our Treasury, our currency base and our central bank, but isn't interested in the economic realities of the policy. Ludicrous. heraldscotland.com/politics/…

Hi @RideoutTim just saw your video on Pensions. You do realise these figures and conclusions are wrong don’t you?

And here we have her taking two distinct legal approaches to indyref2 in front of the UK Supreme Court, one with her SNP hat on and the other wearing her FM hat. It’s really not on.

I read the Lord Advocate's #indyref2 submission to the Supreme Court and the lack of enthusiasm was palpable. Very "on the one hand, one the other hand"

This new image from the James Webb Space Telescope shows the oldest galaxy astronomers have ever seen! It's dated back to just 300 million years after the Big Bang.

The UK Refugees Minister Lord Richard Harrington has raised ‘immediate and serious safeguarding concerns’ about the SNP’s refugees ferry. He also questioned why the ferry staffed by foreign workers entered UK waters without getting an exemption from immigration rules first.

Martin MacDonald@Innealadair17 Jul 2022
Tom Tugendhat on Sunday Morning Politics spouting the usual "generation" nonsense about a 2nd indy ref. In the received wisdom of the Imperial Union they all know it's true because they all tell each other it's true. They just can't point to anywhere where it shows up in an agmt.
Pure soil nationalism here.

Scotland is still suffering the consequences of Brexit – a decision we did not make. 👎Devolution did not protect Scotland from being taken out of the EU nor from the “hard” form of Brexit imposed by the UK Gov. Only independence can both strengthen & embed democracy in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Takes 15 seconds to get to the end, so they clip it just before the end. Embarrassing.

My sincere apologies for my now deleted tweet. It was entirely crass and inappropriate and I apologise unreservedly.

"The next decade must see an end to the era of cuts to the Armed Forces, both in terms of funding and personnel numbers." Oh dear, it's from the SNP. I guess you won't be getting those pension increases funded by defence cuts.

Greatly aided by our not having our money spent on WMDs by Westminster.
Looks like the fake memes are getting owned again. Can't be easy being @indyposterboy and just not getting away with it anymore. xitter.cf/zarkwan/status/1539542…

Oops, and another one. It's the best job in the world fixing nat false memes, it's just so easy. xitter.cf/indyposterboy/status/1…

I used to drink tons of Diet Coke but it’s been one month since I’ve had a drop. I want to share some of the changes I’ve observed in myself over that time: - My health is unchanged - I’m less happy - My one source of joy is gone Thanks for encouraging me on this journey!

So the SNP love affair with oil is back on and we should all forget about the climate crisis, right?
