New account, had to be restarted due to technical issue that X insisted didn’t exist. Trying to re-follow all the accounts I used to follow.

@AnnieGlen20 Digging up a golf course should be a stand alone offence resulting in death penalty. But in this case they were charged with Malicious Mischief aggravated by a terrorist motive.

@RexKwonDo_ @Stupotsy All British Citizens who had been registered to vote in UK over the previous 15 years were allowed to vote in Brexit. There is no such thing as Scottish citizenship. But around 800k Scots living elsewhere in UK were not allowed to vote in Scexit referendum.

@HumzaYousaf Why do you keep telling us about Gaza? Nobody cares. Do you not think there are problems in Scotland that need attention? If you want to do something useful why are you not across there helping?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@scotgov Who was it that cut the budgets of drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Scotland to start with?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@MikeyTheBuddie @UKLabour @BBCScotlandNews Yes we have a problem with organised crime and youths who are out of control. But this problem extends throughout the country. The SNP’s soft justice system for youths in Scotland makes action against them almost impossible.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@MikeyTheBuddie Yes energy is a reserved area, but let’s hear how in an iScotland the price would be any different. How would that work?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@ScotNational Qualify to be let in. So basically low or unskilled migrants. On top of that we will have numerous illegal entrants who will be allowed to stay. How can any of this have a positive impact on the population or workforce if Scotland?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@ScotNational Each year around 1m people legally migrate to the UK. Each one of these people is free to settle in Scotland. The SNP say the current system is tough and want a bespoke system for Scotland. What does that mean? Lowering the current standards to allow people who currently don’t…

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@bigbenn1e What progress towards Scexit have the SNP made? So why has there required to be a “voice” in that time? Surely the priority should be governing Scotland effectively, regardless of what party was in power. The SNP have certainly not done that for some considerable years now.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@JamesMelville So what part of the GFA has been triggered to allow a poll?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@ZombieHotrod Pathetic. Yet your Scots born here and lived all their lives in UK paying taxes but moved way for work purposes to another part of UK then returned wouldn’t get a vote. What exactly is your rationale behind that?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@ZombieHotrod But a child born here 16 years ago to two foreign immigrants would get a vote. Unbelievable.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@ZombieHotrod So someone born here, moved to elsewhere in UK for work purposes then returned here would not get a vote?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@caim67 From a Celtic supporter! From a neutral, the SFA were quite right and long overdue.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@Fergie_CJ @dunmorejag Nonsense. The kingdoms of Scotland and England have ceased to exist just as the Kingdom of Strathclyde has ceased to exist too.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@Galafoxes Ridiculous and slightly biased, I suspect, tweet. Hearts are out of the tournaments they got beaten in. Plenty of teams qualify for Euro tournaments through penalty shoot outs.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@jeremycorbyn What does the GFA say about the timing of a referendum?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@CELTICBOB1967 The response from Celtic supporters has been unbelievable. As a neutral in this, I can say it is a fair and long overdue punishment. No supporters are allowed to enter the pitch area. You may have got away with this for years, but it looks as if the SFA have finally grown a set.

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@DetroitCSC Simple, no fans are allowed to enter the pitch area. Is that easy enough for you to understand?

[Gilbert Martin @GillyMart]

@CRobertsonUK For many Scexit supporters the only argument they can come up with for Scexit basically does boil down to Anglophobia. It is actually the only argument that makes any sense. What powers do you think “England” has in UK that Scotland doesn’t?
