🏴 Yesterday, Scotland’s Parliament backed a second independence referendum.
👀 Not one unionist MSP made a positive case for staying in the UK.
🤔 If they’re so confident, why fear letting Scotland choose its future? Or are they worried this time the answer will be yes?
We can expect most of the Scottish election results to be announced late afternoon.
The SNP and Green voters should be out of bed just in time to see them.
The rest of us will be able to catch up with them when we get home from work.
@JohnSwinney Oh the irony. The SNP and the Scottish Government politicians do not care about Scottish people and have been ignoring the voices of the majority of people in Scotland for years.
anybody who believes a vote for the SNP would be a vote for independence must have been living under a bush for the last 20 years - it would be a vote for another 5 years of false grievance mongering and incompetence
Right then… who wants a chance at winning these 3 classics? 👀

You know somethings dodgy when any tax changes happen without the involvement of the Governments Tax Advisory Group. It’s almost like they didn’t want to be told their plan is essentially insignificant, they just want the headline! SNP: Better for themselves. 😏
Yesterday's Scottish Budget had a flagship policy: an increase in income tax thresholds. It's being widely reported as a cut in income tax for low earners.
That isn't really correct.
Four quick thoughts on a very peculiar tax cut.
Since I became disabled I have been shocked at the state of accessible toilets in the UK.
So many of them are absolutely disgusting.
Nothing makes you feel less welcome as a disabled person than having to use neglected toilets, with sanitary bins overflowing with human waste.
I’m often forced to take my waste with me, carrying it round in a rucksack and disposing of it at home.
It’s heartbreaking and it happens a lot.
Sadly, it’s very common. Venues across the UK simply don’t respect customers with disabilities and expect us to go to the toilet in repulsive surroundings.
That’s why it’s such a treat when you go somewhere with an accessible loo that’s properly looked after.
The Hyndland Rock in Glasgow has the best accessible toilet of any pub I’ve been in.
It’s immaculate, smells fresh and even has a framed print on the wall. Art! In a disabled toilet!
I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to find a toilet like this. It’s a massive relief and it makes me feel less sad about my situation.
I’m an optimistic chap but when I’m catheterising myself or emptying my colostomy bag in a foul room full of flies, it doesn’t make me feel good about my life.
So if you have a venue, please look after your accessible toilets. The basics are the most important thing: empty the bins and keep the room clean and free of junk.
Those simple things really mean a lot to people like me.
They’re not on X so I can’t tag them, but thank you to all the staff at The Hyndland Rock!
🚨NEWS: It has been revealed that the number of foreigners claiming Universal Credit in the UK is now at a record 1.24 million
This is people not even born here.
If you count the children of migrants it will be millions more.
