@JohnRoddin@AgentP22 We can't go bust! Westminster won't let us go. But thanks to knee bending snivelling servile serf unionists, we will all go bust when Westminster causes it
@abitofasceptic@AgentP22 Aren't you concerned that there are around 11% (that's slightly more than 1 in 10) in the UK on some form of Disability payment?
@Margare53391471@AlexMacLeod9 Why can't newly qualified get positions? Not because of the sitting Gov't. It's usually Health Board Budgets. And who tells us how much we can get to spend on Health, based on what they're spending on Health? Westminster. That's how Barnett works.
@AgentP22 Who said that, apart from you? The MSM put Scotland down, you post items from the E*press etc yet most owners of MSM/Newspapers don't live here. What a hypocrite!
@UnrepentantYoon@LesDev727767@AgentP22 Where's the anglophobia? Is that like someone saying they disagree with what Israel is doing to Palestinians so you'd call them an antisemite? As for Trade, Scotland - only Nation in UK with a positive balance. Works both ways, England would still need our trade
@MemberRestore@indy_swim Completely not true! You must be one of these lying yoons! According to Disability Rights UK, 10% of adults in England have skipped or not collected medications due to cost - leading to worsened health for those affected. This then leads to more Hospital admission/treatment
22-year old Reform activist studying politics in Aberdeen comes on to say that the SNP haven't delivered anything in 20 years - except the delivery of free tuition which allowed him to study politics - without having to pay anything towards it
You couldn't make it up lmao
@wavydot@gray410@JohnSwinney@MareeToddMSP That makes no sense. In Scotland, the 'lowest paid taxpayers' still pay less tax than anywhere else in the UK. Also, on average, Council Tax is cheaper, water charges are cheaper and as a bonus, our water doesn't taste like shit
A reminder that doctors have had no need to strike in Scotland.
The fundamental difference is that Scotland remains fully committed to the NHS model and have rejected selling off parts of it to the private sector
Scotland continues to invest in the future of the NHS.
I am just back ex Arran
No problem w/ ferries either direction, friendly helpful staff
But businesses reporting traffic is down in part due to @BBCScotlandNews parroting London HQ'ed parties' attack lines
This bias has real impact on real people beyond any genuine ferry issues
I know someone who has a rental cottage on Arran
He took a call from someone in England who had previously stayed.
“Are you still taking bookings?”
“Yes of course, why?”
“I heard it was almost impossible to get a car over on the ferry”
There was 14 sailings yesterday
@GeorgeFoulkes You really are a fucking disgrace of a man.
Do you not realise that your lying comments here are causing cancellations to hospitality bookings on the islands that are serviced by these ferries.
Look at the facts as published by the CalMac CEO and spare us your pathetic posts.
🚨 BREAKING:
🇺🇸 US SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM JUST SAID LIVE ON FOX NEWS:
"IF THE IRANIAN LEADER WON'T ACCEPT THE DEAL WE OFFERED, HE WILL BE DEAD."
SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD IS HAPPENING...
Wes Streeting's comments about the devolved NHS are undoubtedly a disaster for Anas Sarwar. They undermine his whole attack strategy against the SNP. We confidently predict the moment an SNP MP/MSP raises them in a BBC Scotland interview they'll be interrupted and spoken over.
