@AScot94175440 I find this discussion so stupid! The questions has always been: "Does Scotland want to be independent?" Asking "Can it be independent?" makes about as much sense as asking "Is water wet?"

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨
Six innocent Iranian protesters have been sentenced to death.
These brave young men have only one “crime”: standing by their sisters. When Iranian women rose up after the brutal killing of Mahsa Jina Amini by the morality police, these men stood with them, demanding justice. Now, the same regime that denied killing Mahsa is trying to kill these six men to cover its tracks, to convince the world it was never responsible. But we know the truth.
Milad Armoon, Navid Najjaran, Hossein Nemati, Alireza Kafaee, Amirhossein Khosh-Eghbal, and Alireza Barmozpornak are not criminals—they are the voices of a nation demanding dignity and freedom.
I call on the international community: do not look away. Come to the aid of the Iranian people. Help us stop this cycle of violence. We need you to raise your voices, to pressure the regime, and to save the lives of these young men before it’s too late.

5 years ago this was me & my best friend. He was a clown & I was a Christmas Tree. 14 days later we both got shot at school…he was killed. I fight every day for him, & I voted for him. Please vote those you love & not those who want to hurt them. #HarrisWalz2024#Iloveyou#Vote
I’m old enough to remember when Newt Gingrich cheated on his wife and dropped divorce papers on her while she was being treated for cancer. But sure, Newt…don’t lie to your spouse.
