Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.

Rachel Reeves only needed to promise a mere £3m for the Rosyth to Zeebrugge ferry & could have claimed to be working to boost the Scottish economy, but she didn't. It's hard to escape the conclusion this Labour Govt just isn't very good at politics. www.thenational.scot/politics/248...

Wake up Scotland This is not looking good inews.co.uk/news/politic...

No one in Scotland can think this is acceptable, but some here still vote for it.

Huge gratitude for our neighbors, Mexico and Canada have sent fire fighters and army to help us.

This has been a difficult decision. We will leave our Meta accounts live, but unused, with signposts to Bluesky where we work for #ScottishIndependence We are on Mastodon but it is clunky with little reach. It is not great, to have our social media just on one platform. Join the resistance....

UK Labour's Scottish Branch Manager, Anas Sarwar today announced a 'New Direction'. The latest polling from Deltapoll confirms what that direction is. Having started 2024 10 pts ahead, UK Labour finished the year 18 pts behind the SNP. Meanwhile Reform UK (no support in Scotland) overtake the Tories

"Fair and fast compensation" Starmer promised. 😡

Anas Sarwar made and broke a promise to Waspi women and Shirley-Anne Somerville kept the receipt. "Under my leadership....." What a joke! 😂

Another Labour promise broken. They were so vocal about compensation for Waspi women when the Conservatives were in power. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"It will take as long as it takes" the BBC commentator said. It will be carefully timed to cause as much damage as possible at the 2026 Scottish election. www.google.com/amp/s/www.bb...

This tells you everything you need to know about her - a friend of Vance. I suppose he needs all the friends he can get now Musk has taken his place as VP. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/12...

Well, this looks very cheerful. From Norstat/The Times & Sunday Times.

This is how we have to confront lies with truth.

This frightens me. Reform are very clever with their use of social media and it us well-funded. I have no doubt they will get enough votes to claim more than a few seats through Holyrood's system of proportional representation.

I can understand that she wanted to quit, but I dont think she is helping the independence cause with some of her criticisms. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...

10,000 jobs in Scotland, Office in Aberdeen... Pay attention now Unionists! Reality; 300 jobs in Aberdeen head office in Manchester. Guess which country is getting 10,000 jobs? Oh, and there is no refinery now...

Where are all the Scottish Indy supporters give me like and I’ll follow back 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great news that Scotland is reinventing itself here on BlueSky. Let's build the community of all of us who want to see an independent Scotland in the EU, never to be ruled by Tories ever again. We can do this by retweeting and following each other on this #FollowBackFriday

If you believe in Scottish independence and want to be back in the EU, follow me and I'll follow back. #followbackfriday

NEW: The United States government has established its first military site in Scotland since the 1990s, prompting fears it could be put to “catastrophic” use by an incoming Donald Trump administration. https://theferret.scot/us-war-plane-base-scotland/

A lot of accounts asking for followers but we follow back everyone who asks no matter how long it takes us! RT and drop a heart if we still need to get you! 💙

Guardian to close more than 80 accounts on Twitter - with approximately 27 million followers - as it quits Musk's 'disturbing' platform. www.theguardian.com/media/2024/n...

My first post here. Larbert Loch, central Scotland. Autumn is glorious.
