Even Bobby’s shower flashback in Dallas has nothing on Labour’s psychodrama. This is the strong & stable UK Scotland apparently cannot do without. These are the indispensable, political grown-ups. Wake up everyone. Time for Scots to run the show ourselves https://t.co/kEnOas2Zh0
Nigel Farage is facing questions over a £5m gift he received from a billionaire backer before he became an MP

🏴 Scotland’s food & drink exports hit £7.14bn in 2024, that’s £1,288 per person.
🏴 England exported £12.12bn, just £207 per person.
🇪🇺 Imagine the potential if Scotland were an independent nation back in the European Union.
When @theSNP took power 18 years ago, the top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, were ALL in Scotland.
Today,
The top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, are ALL in England.
I’ll take that as a positive governance of Scotland.
Scotland is a nation - and every nation has the right to choose its own future.
Our pledge is simple: choice, fairness and democracy must guide Scotland’s path.

A country of only 5 million people, with an abundance of natural resources, that countries double our size, would literally die for, should not be trying to manage a budget, decided by another country.
The Union doesn’t work for 🏴, we work for it.
It's currently 7c in London.
It's currently -2c in Pitlochry.
A reminder that a person in Pitlochry pays more to use electricity that's generated in their town than someone in London, which generates little/nothing.
This is just one of many examples of Scotland's exploitation.
Whilst people here face a UK Government inspired cost of living crisis, winter fuel payment cuts & austerity, folk in independent Ireland are benefitting from a budget giveaway.
It’s time to get out of Broken Brexit Britain - it’s time for independence! 🏴
Labour are set to ‘reveal’ a massive hole in the public finances.
Strange thing is, they knew about it all along.
But rather than be honest with the public they chose to engage in a ‘conspiracy of silence’ and stick to Tory fiscal rules.
Where will their austerity axe fall?
Labour's Scottish Secretary Ian Murray is to be handed £150m by Keir Starmer to spend as he wishes. This is the same amount Labour cut from the winter fuel payment.
We are calling on Murray to give it back to the pensioners. Retweet with the #GiveItBack hashtag if you agree.
