@Tara61711 For me, it isn't whether we can afford to be independent. It's whether we can afford not to be. The cost in social terms of being stuck with a country that keeps voting Tory is much too high
@msm_monitor But the de facto English government can impose whatever it likes on Scotland, Wales and the north of Ireland? Cool. Whatever you say, Andy
@SimonForrest11 Maybe it’s just me but I definitely don’t associate the OO with inclusion, diversity or tolerance 🤣😂🤣. Maybe Kev’s glasses are tinted 🤷🏼♀️
@RealStephenKerr UCL research shows England’s PISA sample was skewed, with up to 40% of pupils excluded, over-representing high achievers & inflating math scores by 10+ points. The DfE even admitted its 2022 sample failed OECD rules, under-sampling poorer kids to boost rankings.
@RiddlywalkerB@Hamill2086John@HarrietCross_MP It seems to me that’s precisely why they’re still on about it. Anything and everything Scotland does well is a positive indicator for independence. That is kryptonite to the UK which apparently can’t get enough of subsidising a whole country
@iwishkate@Microinteracti1 They say every accusation from a narcissist is a confession. It was always his ambition to be a tinpot dictator. The world’s biggest democracy gave him the opportunity. Twice. I fear it may not end at two, regardless of constitution or the level of damage to wider global security
@wendyha08388411@PeterStefanovi2 He’s not even clever enough to distinguish between Britain and England, which you’d have thought would be fairly straightforward for a UK PM. Water is not privatised in Scotland
@claireizz50@Mikeedakid1@coppensusan1 No. Absolutly not. She (?) certainly doesn’t speak for me. Also, quite angry, it seems. Tbh, if taxpayers have to fund any of the security, I’d rather it was for H&M and their children than for the scrounging, pretendy “working”, royals and hangers-on
