The UK's bluefin tuna quota has quadrupled to 230 tonnes. But Scotland has been given nothing at all, with every fishing licence going south of the Border 👇
Norway funnels over $400 million annually into into national youth sports with a substantial portion dedicated to football. Norway has a $2.2 trillion sovereign wealth fund. Scotland has no sovereign wealth fund. Norway is independent, Scotland is not. Spot the difference.
Scotland’s wind farms will pay £1 billion to connect to the UK grid.
Meanwhile, projects elsewhere in the UK will be paid to connect.
Scotland generates the energy. Scots should see the benefit.
70,000 oil and gas jobs lost under the Tories.
50,000 renewables jobs put at risk by Reform.
Scotland shouldn’t have to choose between today’s jobs and tomorrow’s opportunities.
The SNP is the only party backing our world-class energy industry, while supporting world-class renewables for the future.
Vote SNP on Thursday 18 June. Vote Richard Thomson.
Scottish clean energy projects in Scotland are set to pay one billion pounds to use the UK’s electricity network while projects in England will be paid four hundred and thirty six million pounds to connect to the same grid. #renewables#cleanenergy#scotland#news4scotland
Mhairi Black says she's angry at Peter Murrell - but feels frustrated that other scandals with millions of pounds of public money 'haven't received anywhere near the same level of scrutiny'
In her attack on Sturgeon, Rosena Allin-Khan declares of herself & fellow panellist Jeremy Hunt, "for hard working MPs like myself & Jeremy.. trustworthy, reliable"
Hunt, who as a Tory cabinet minister exploited a Tory tax loophole to buy 7 luxury flats & then didn't declare it.
@jamesbundy Amazing that every body who hasn't contributed to the snp or became a member of the snp are the ones shouting the most didnt know so much cared about my party unlike public funds
Dear @Keir_Starmer
The Scottish Parliament has passed a mandate to ask Westminster to devolve the powers required to hold a Scottish independence referendum.
We the people of Scotland wish democracy to be upheld with the immediate powers transfered.
Please RT if you agree.

#independence makes things happen.
Gordon Brown announcing HS2 in 2009. The UK's biggest ever construction scandal. It will never be completed. It will never reach its original projected speed. Overbudget by £87.7bn. Enough to build 400 Glen Sannox ferries. FOUR HUNDRED!
Ferries fiasco? F*ck off.
Well said Bernard Ponsonby. You've nailed the issue. It flies in the face of democracy for Westminster to deny an S30 order given the current makeup of the Scottish Parliament should that Parliament request one.
Another day with no gas used in Scotland to generate electricity but all of our bills based on high cost gas. We can't sort this in the UK. We can only fix it by leaving.
So Keir Starmer announces more action on British Steel, but again, absolutely nothing for Grangemouth or Mossmorran in Scotland.
Not even a mention of the thousands of energy jobs being lost in the North East, as a result of Labour policies.
Pathetic.
Reform UK win 27% of the vote in English Council elections on a 40% turnout is a seismic shift in UK politics. Yet @theSNP winning 5th election in a row with 38% of the vote on a 52% turnout & pro indy majority isn't a mandate 4 a referendum on #ScottishIndependence2026 Aye right
