Watchdog Scotland

Holding politicians to account. Advocating for Scottish sovereignty, industry, and common sense. Scotland deserves better.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.

Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse.

It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

ABSOLUTELY CRAZY SCENES IN GLASGOW

An asylum seeker was caught using balloons to 'pleasure himself' while kids were playing nearby

He put tape over all of the doors so people couldn't check what was happening outside their flats

Luckily this boy chased him down and caught him

Locals are saying he was carrying scissors and ran towards a park with other children in

Well done to that lad for catching him👏

We need to close our borders and deport the lot of them to protect our kids

@owenjonesjourno You are pathetic

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

@mgshanks You and your party are destroying Scotlands industry

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

@SkyNews So it begins

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

You honestly could not make this up.

The UK Labour Government is helping destroy Scotland’s oil and gas industry, voting against new North Sea licences and driving investment away from domestic production.

Then, when global fuel prices rise, what do they do?

They ease restrictions on Russian-linked oil products refined through third countries.

So Scottish oil and gas is bad.
North Sea jobs are disposable.
Aberdeen and the North East can be sacrificed.

But Russian-linked supply is suddenly acceptable when Westminster needs fuel.

These fools have no serious energy strategy.

The UK still needs oil and gas. The choice is whether we produce more of what we need here, supporting Scottish workers, tax revenue and energy security — or whether we import more from abroad and expose ourselves to unstable global markets.

This is not climate leadership.

It is economic self-harm dressed up as virtue.

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

These are the Scottish MPs who voted against backing new North Sea oil and gas licences.

Every one listed below is Labour:

Zubir Ahmed — Glasgow South West
Scott Arthur — Edinburgh South West
Johanna Baxter — Paisley and Renfrewshire South
Irene Campbell — North Ayrshire and Arran
Torcuil Crichton — Na h-Eileanan an Iar
Graeme Downie — Dunfermline and Dollar
Patricia Ferguson — Glasgow West
Alan Gemmell — Central Ayrshire
Tracy Gilbert — Edinburgh North and Leith
John Grady — Glasgow East
Lillian Jones — Kilmarnock and Loudoun
Chris Kane — Stirling and Strathallan
Brian Leishman — Alloa and Grangemouth
Douglas McAllister — West Dunbartonshire
Martin McCluskey — Inverclyde and Renfrewshire West
Gordon McKee — Glasgow South
Frank McNally — Coatbridge and Bellshill
Chris Murray — Edinburgh East and Musselburgh
Pamela Nash — Motherwell, Wishaw and Carluke
Gregor Poynton — Livingston
Martin Rhodes — Glasgow North
Michael Shanks — Rutherglen
Euan Stainbank — Falkirk
Kenneth Stevenson — Airdrie and Shotts
Elaine Stewart — Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock
Kirsteen Sullivan — Bathgate and Linlithgow
Alison Taylor — Paisley and Renfrewshire North
Imogen Walker — Hamilton and Clyde Valley
Melanie Ward — Cowdenbeath and Kirkcaldy

These MPs did not vote to protect Scottish jobs.
They did not vote to protect Scotland’s energy security.
They did not vote to protect the North East.
They did not vote to protect one of Scotland’s most important industries.

They voted against the future of Scotland’s oil and gas sector.

This is deindustrialisation by political choice.

Scotland has already seen what happens when governments abandon major industries and tell workers “something else will come along.” Communities are left behind. Skills are lost. Families suffer. Supply chains collapse.

We were told never again after Thatcher.

Yet here we are — watching Scottish Labour MPs vote against the very sector that supports thousands of Scottish jobs, delivers billions in economic value, and could be used to fund a proper energy transition.

The transition should be paid for by production, investment and industry — not by hammering households through higher bills while importing more energy from abroad.

Scotland should not be managed into decline.

If Westminster will not protect Scotland’s oil and gas industry, then Holyrood should be fighting for the powers to take control of licensing, offshore industrial policy, energy strategy and transition funding.

Scotland has the energy.
Scotland has the workers.
Scotland has the supply chain.

What Scotland needs now is political backbone.

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

You need to go further than this.

Scotland’s energy sector cannot be protected by press releases alone. If Westminster is making decisions that damage Scottish jobs, Scottish industry and Scottish energy security, then Holyrood should be fighting to take control of the sector.

That means demanding devolved powers over oil and gas licensing, offshore industrial policy, energy strategy and transition funding.

Scotland has the resources, the workers and the supply chain. What we need is political backbone.

Stop managing decline. Fight for control.

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

@ZackPolanski Breakthrough?

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

🏴 Scotland’s energy industry is being slowly strangled by decisions made at Westminster — and once again Scotland is expected to simply accept it.

MPs have now rejected attempts to support new North Sea oil and gas licences, despite the massive importance of the sector to jobs, wages, engineering, energy security and entire communities across the north-east of Scotland.

This is economic self-harm.

The UK still needs oil and gas.
Britain still imports oil and gas.
The difference is Westminster would now rather import more from abroad than support production here at home under some of the highest environmental standards in the world.

That means:
• More imported energy
• Higher dependency on foreign supply
• Lost Scottish jobs
• Lost investment
• Weaker energy security
• Communities left behind

And where is the fight from Holyrood?

If Westminster refuses to back Scotland’s energy sector, then Holyrood should be demanding the powers to protect it.

Scotland should have control over:
• North Sea licensing
• Offshore industrial policy
• Energy strategy
• Energy pricing mechanisms
• Transition funding

Because right now Scotland has one of Europe’s greatest energy assets sitting off its coastline, yet decisions over its future are being made elsewhere.

This is not a “just transition.”
It is managed decline.

And ordinary workers, families and communities will pay the price.

@Heccles94 Vote Green get child grooming gangs

[Watchdog Scotland @WdgScotland]

Aberdeen no more?

Labour’s North Sea policy risks doing to Aberdeen what Thatcher did to mining communities: shutting down an industry before there is a credible replacement ready to protect jobs, wages, skills and local economies.

But the SNP and Greens have not helped either.

The Greens are openly hostile to oil and gas, while the SNP talk about defending Scotland but have failed to fight hard enough for the powers needed over energy pricing, oil and gas licensing, offshore industrial policy and a proper transition fund.

Scotland should not be importing more energy from abroad while shutting down our own basin, destroying skilled jobs and weakening energy security.

Net zero without common sense is economic vandalism.

Scotland needs leaders who will fight for our industry — not manage its decline from Holyrood or Westminster.

This is exactly why people are questioning Holyrood’s rules.

A newly elected Green MSP, reportedly here on a short-term visa route, is now linked to a manifesto calling for Scotland to pay “reparative justice” to Palestinians.

So let’s ask the obvious question:

How is this serving the Scottish people?

Scots are struggling with housing, energy bills, public services, wages and crime.

Yet Holyrood has lowered the democratic threshold so far that someone without citizenship or permanent settled status can sit in Parliament and push causes that many ordinary Scots never voted for.

This is not about identity.

It is about priorities, accountability and democratic legitimacy.

Scotland’s Parliament should represent Scotland’s people first.

Not global activist causes.
Not virtue-signalling politics.
Not ideological experiments.

Scotland first should mean Scotland first.
