Independence is normal #DissolveTheUnion promoted by Eamonn Gallagher on behalf of Alba 17 Fourth st G41 2SP

Something to chew over...
The SNP leadership cunningly has activists raging at Burnham for sticking to his principles.
BUT
That is just a distraction from asking why the SNP leadership won't use its levers for independence.

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

Westminster owes the Scottish independence movement- and will give it nothing.
But the Scotland Act, while blocking a referendum, allows an election to be called at almost any time and on any issue. 👇

Swinney doesn't have the bottle to act independently

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

On a grubby issue, Farage set the news agenda.

On the noble issue of independence Swinney could set the news agenda & do it globally 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

All that is needed is courage from Swinney to look into a camera and call a "Defacto Referendum" through a Holyrood election for independence.

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

Who woudm have thought a decade ago that the SNP leadership wouldn't have called a called a vote (election) in independence to counter Westminster's very effective tactic of not granting a referendum.

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

One month since Holyrood passed a vote "demanding" a referendum on independence.

And over a month since, 12 mins later Downing Street said NO referendum.

Any plans from SNP leadership? -while they ignore the obvious, as they will for more months -unless pro indy folk pressure.

@AngusBMacNeil @ALBAAllan6337 Its not about longevity. Its a completely different agenda 30. He's only there to continue the process. Collapse tge economy by taxation and bring it digital ID and currency

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

Yes Scotland was probably robbed of 2 penalties...but when you elect an SNP Government (albeit a devolved Westmin Giv) who refuse to call an election on independence - football robbery gets put in perspective.

53% for Indy. No campaign in 12 years.

Yet this is the SNP's worst week ever.

• Police complaints
• Leaked plea deal
• Sturgeon's "No Comment"
• Gov found in contempt
We break it all down at noon on Sunday🎧

⏰ LIVE AT NOON

Westminster says no to Section 30.

Murrell guilty.

Pressure is growing on Sturgeon.

If Westminster won't grant a Section 30 order, what should the independence movement do next?

Join us at 12pm

Westminster slams the door on independence-Murrell Guilty! https://t.co/GSBuS9Qd49

[EamonnGallagher @indi🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @Eamonnindi2]

It took Westminster just 8 minutes to say no. Today the Scottish government should be debating. Changing the rules and dissolving parliament. To hold an election on independence in the autumn

[Hazel Lyon @HazelLyon16]

For months, many of us were told to stay quiet and keep trusting a process that was clearly failing. But the truth matters more than comfort.

We warned “Both Votes SNP” would hand seats to Unionists and wouldn't stop Reform it would, in fact help them. We warned Westminster would reject another Section 30 request outright.

Both warnings came true.

The independence movement now faces a choice:
keep repeating failed tactics, or finally unite around a serious plan to win.

I know where I stand. The era of constitutional begging must end 👇

Devolution is power without responsibility. Its time to deliver independence.. no more taking no for an answer

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Qu - Please sir can I have a referendum?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Or what ?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿-Or I will do nothing for 3 years and then hide the issue amongst everything else at a UK election

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Really? 🤣 Then you definitely cannot have a referendum.

[Hazel Lyon @HazelLyon16]

Have they forgotten JS said only SNP seats would count so the biggest majority still stands under Alex Salmond with 69 seats in 2011. Another note to add, both SNP & Greens voted with the unionists on the 10th anniversary of Indy Ref 18/9/24 disagreeing with Ash Regans amendment to use our list vote at this election as a plebicite for Indy. Result 125-1. 👇

Amendment 1 (S6M-14524.1) to the motion "Creating a Modern, Diverse, Dynamic Scotland"

[EamonnGallagher @indi🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @Eamonnindi2]

@AngusBMacNeil The devolutionists don't want anyone messing with their agenda. Perpetual devolution and as many carrots as it takes to stay in power

[EamonnGallagher @indi🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @Eamonnindi2]

@GaraidhM @AngusBMacNeil Enough of the excuses. No bottle.

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

What did the folly of both votes SNP mean for anti indy parties?

Well thanks to SNP Both votes- 🙈 (approx)
Reform got 8 extra MSPs.
Lab for 5 extra MSPs.
Tory got 2 extra MSPs.

There could have been have been about 14 extra pro indy MSPs if independence was put before party.

[Angus B MacNeil 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @AngusBMacNeil]

Independence credibility gap.

55 % of Scots support independence.
Yet
SNP & Green vote share is 41%

If they look serious and call an election on independence in this parliament they have everything to gain - independence.
