@PolitlcsUK @MrHarryCole Get rid of the House of Lords , and cut the money given to the Royal Family and wealthy party donors. That would half your black hole in a matter of minutes.

@amandawheatley8 @PeteWishart Be in no doubt had she been alive at the time the panto dame would have been on the side of the Roman invaders.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@AllTooWell55 @PeteWishart Average turn out for a council by-election . I think it's due to many voters not realising what local councils actually do or the impact they have on our lives.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@BogotaBob @J4m35c4mpb3ll The voters don't see anything, and therein lies the problem. The turnout tells you all you need to know. Most voters of all parties think local councils are irrelevant so when it comes to council by elections the SNP are screwed under a PR system which doesn't work for them.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@J4m35c4mpb3ll These seats weren't the SNP's to lose they were Labour's to hold. And, by the way, we did every bit as badly under Alex when it came to council by-elections. Why ? Well, to me, at least there are very simple reasons for these results PR and unionist tactical voting

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@J4m35c4mpb3ll @luluphooey The SNP lost four seats to the Tories Inverclyde was a Labour seat and never ours to lose. Don't forget these by-elections are
held in Multi Member Wards and tend to give a false reading as to whether a seat was a win or a hold.

@murray11818 @DanielJMath1 You're totally and completely wrong .
The song which has three verses, not just two, isn't even about Bannockburn. It's actually about our defeat at Flodden and the only reference to Bannockburn is a lament for those who fought against invasion.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@HibernianWomen @JLMurray17 Happy Birthday Joelle. Hope you've had a lovely day.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@ionafyfe I somehow doubt this poll is even remotely credible. It's not about the countries they've compared us to it's about the ones they haven't such as Austria, where levels of support for Trump are far higher than 25% and I tend to agree with @gowdavy as to they found their sample

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@NeilMackay I'm not as shocked as I should be by this disturbing news. However, I do think there will be caveats regarding demographics, which will be ignored as it doesn't suit the narrative they are trying to present. For example Trump support being highest amongst orange and older voters

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@msm_monitor We all know what she is and why she is that way. There must be no place for any of that ilk in an Independent Scotland.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@ArgyllAppliance @ProfJWR Gary isn't the brightest and tends not to cope very well when he's forced to deal with things he doesn't approve of. You know, like the truth, or any kind of facts , he can't change.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@GlasgowCityFC @Foley_8 My flatmate worked in nightclubs for many years as a younger woman and has been suffering hearing loss for a few years now , and has often had the TV at up at 50. She found this video very helpful. You're a superstar Mego, on and off the park .

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@bellacaledonia They really are a strange and nasty bunch. I had the dubious pleasure of encountering a few of them recently, and they weren't very bright. For example, they voted Labour at the UK elections and then claimed that Tommy Robinson was a courageous British patriot.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@patch8652 😄 I don't doubt that for a single second, but maybe that was due to you having certain attributes our unionist countryfolk have never been blessed with. You know, like talent , brains , and imagination.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@bigbenn1e No it won't . Alba have neither the clout nor gravitas to end our fight despite their delusional fantasies to the contrary. As for their tactics, they may, at worst , set the cause back for 5 years, But know this and know it well. We will never be defeated. Scotland will prevail

[Bill Cruickshank @BjCruickshank]

Yesterday I posted how 77th Brigade are trying to destroy Scotland's independence movement, within hours I had lost 80+ followers in one fell swoop. I am sure just a coincidence?? lol However, the Anglo-state needs to realise they will never shut us up.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@BallotBoxScot It's a hold, not a gain.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@NeilMackay @heraldscotland Two contrasting opinions , but only one was accurate and that of course was Nicola's.

[Gayle Smith @2202Gayle]

@annewitha_e @bigbenn1e We won't get any deal from those disgusting tramps . Honestly Brit-Scots make absolutely sick, but trust me, Karma is coming to get them, and our revenge will be sweet.
