🇮🇪 started push to independence in 1916 during WW1, the 🇬🇧 NHS & welfare state discussions began in 1942 during WW2.

What does the seeming inability for a party empowered to deliver independence for 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 to progress during catalysts of: Brexit, Covid & now war in 🇺🇦 demonstrate?

Ruth Davidson on #channel4news there, in tears at the degradation and dishonesty of the Johnson administration - so utterly disgusted that she's renouncing the peerage awarded by him.

Oh, no - wait...

Congratulations to Barbados on divesting yourselves of the parasites.
Scotland hopes to be joining you soon as an independent republic former colony.

Here's a bit I wrote for @prospect_uk about how - at a time when women still face institutionalised misogyny - the campaign to pardon Scotland's "witches" has tapped into the zeitgeist. @madisonmitchel1 @zoevenditozzi https://t.co/PKLkeqeisP

Oh well 😁 Blocked again!
◾motion for getting independence at election if a referendum is blocked by a Westmin Axis won't see the latest virtual SNP conference for members to consider for 4th or 5th time
Autumn 2023 conf it will be THE motion if/when there is no #indyref then!

@Ianblackford_MP @theSNP @BorisJohnson Mr Blackford your indignation is of no consequence to Westminsters scoffing toffs. Put Scotland before your career and stand aside if you have nothing else. You can't just keep saying it's disgraceful over and over while we freeze and starve.
Enough.

@TommySheppard @AlzResearchUK Perfidious Albion .Why are you surprised. Shame has no impact on Tory consciousness.
Remember we elected your cohort to settle up not settle down. It's not enough to just be a good MP when Scotland is clearly in peril.

Recent polling shows the DUP at 13% in Northern Ireland, this drops to 5% with those aged 18-24.

Polling also shows that this age group is overwhelmingly in favour of a United Ireland. NI is changing, it is no longer a unionist state.

[Phantom Power @PhantomPower14]

Malcolm Offord failed at the 2021 Scottish elections but a £147,500 donation means he’ll join his sponsor Baroness Ruth Davidson and other Tory cronies in the Lords. They hold unelected, unaccountable power over #Scotland and there’s only one way out.

Glasgow's cro-magnon problem. The High Court of Justiciary has already said that singing the Famine Song publicly can constitute a racially-aggravated breach of the peace.
