A British government which insists that it will not consent to Scotland having a say on its own future is conceding the UK is not a union at all. It’s a prison. indyposterboy.scot/precious-uni...

This community has been able to invest so much in local infrastructure - from housing to a new port - on the back of the profits IT makes from Scotland's renewables. Imagine if this was replicated nationwide. For that we need... 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿|🇪🇺 #ScottishIndependence www.thenational.scot/business/252...

Why couldn't the Scottish Government save Grangemouth? Energy is reserved to Westminster. Why can't Scotland welcome more care workers from overseas? Immigration is reserved to Westminster. Why can't the Scottish Government tackle drug addiction better? Drug laws are reserved to Westminster.

IMO: Swinney should not resign. BUT The focus needs to change. We’ve done the “Party of Good Government”. We’ve done the “Party of WM Mitigation”. It’s time to be the “Party of independence”. First. Foremost. In EVERY conversation. In EVERY policy. At EVERY election. The change Scotland needs.

"One of the things we learned during the Brexit debacle was that English nationalists did not care about its consequences for the maintenance of the Union. If Brexit meant Scotland and Northern Ireland walking away – and thus the effective end of the UK – so be it."

This is essential viewing. A remarkable interview with Dr Tanya Haj-Hassan, a paediatrician working in Gaza, following the killing of her colleague’s NINE children by Israeli forces. Going to post this video in two clips. Here she responds to ludicrous IDF denials & calls out the genocide. 1/2

The 'National Collective' spearheaded the artistic communities support of independence in 2013/14, and did a fantastic job. Sadly they are no more, but let's all get behind the new Artists for Scottish Independence group to fill that gap.

UK more corrupt than Uruguay, Estonia, Seychelles, Iceland, Hong Kong. Honours, crony contracts showered on party donors. Donations/Bribes will secure the laws you want. Dirty money ... no problem. Rule of law ... tell that to postmasters, Grenfell fire victims. Corporations/rich rule.

It was Alastair McIntosh who taught me how to think through these connections - between how we were all torn from the land, & the grief that remains & permeates - and what can be done - bought this book on the strength of the @georgemonbiot.bsky.social quote on the cover, which I agree with!

Yeah you should be angry. No wonder broadcast is a reserved matter. Imagine if we had an actual balanced media that reflected half the population supporting Scottish Independence. The support for indy would be even higher.

Don't hurt the old, poor, sick, disabled. Partners in accountancy/law firms treated as self-employed, pay Class 4 NIC. Employer NIC avoided. Rules save partners £138,000 for every £1m of profit shared. Big four law firms dodge £4bn NIC a year, billions more elsewhere. We can't afford the rich.

The current not taxing the richest is unsustainable. If they simply paid the same rate of tax as everyone else the UK would have an extra £400bn a year. Enough money for everything.
