More good news. And let’s not forget broadband provision is a responsibility of the UKG. But ScotGov had to step in years ago to provide it themselves because UKG wouldn’t. More mitigation for UKG betrayals & reneging on their responsibilities.

🔴Donald Trump Was Recruited by the KGB Under Codename ‘Krasnov’ Claims Former Soviet Spy Chief A former senior KGB chief claims Trump was recruited in 1987 due to his role as a prominent US businessman bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

It's becoming ever clearer that the Labour-led UK Government is actively undermining Scotland's economy and wellbeing. We are not "Too wee and too poor" to succeed as an Independent country, but they are going to do their damnedest to make us so. #YouYesYet?

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

I am late to this, but i doubt there's been a more important piece of investigative journalism written in Scotland in the last decade. Read it and decide if there's anything you can do about it. I know what I'm going to do...

A Scottish Government Led by Anas Sarwar will fix the NHS Backlog. Just like: He saved the Jobs at Grangemouth, got justice for the Waspi women and kept our pensioners cold this winter. PLEASE SHARE THIS EVERYWHERE AND ASK YOUR FOLLOWERS TO SHARE IT TOO #scottishindependence #voteforscotland

Father Pence is not having the ‘King’s’ BS.

Sadly, this feels accurate. 💔 #Fascism

In days like these it is worth remembering that: a) Russia invaded Ukraine, b) Russia had previously given security guarantees to Ukraine that it would not threaten or use military force or economic coercion. It's time for European leaders to stand with Ukraine. #SlavaUkraini

Yesterday GB News aired this commentary belittling a black actress on the BBC as a "diversity hire". This is what Marks & Spencer have been aligning with. Take action: www.facebook.com/MarksandSpen...

Donald Trump is getting rid of Medicaid entirely, this means you will need the $14,000 a year for Health Insurance and the $25,000 for bills you still get to give birth. Or you will have to do it at home like it is 1825. This is in the richest country in the world.

"Talking-up Scotland, now over 10 years old with around 12,000 reports under its belt, has not so far sought financial support.... I need to increasingly rely on a paid part-time research assistant to keep the blog going at its current level..." Worth it! www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/talking-up...

This 🔽to all independence supporters who don`t contribute funding to the independence campaign, but demand more and more of the SNP, now is the time to do something to change things, help fund us or fund Believe in Scotland, the choice is yours.

The GRR wasn't an SNP Law. It was a Scottish Parliament Law.* Political parties can't make laws.Labour sat through every Parliamentary Stage & scrutinised it going through Committees.They had access to all research/consultations & representations. @AnasSarwar says he didn't know what he was doing?

Many Marks and Spencer customers will be disappointed to learn that they've been advertising on GB News radio. You can take action by leaving a friendly message on the Marks and Spencer Facebook page asking them to #StopFundingHate 👇 www.facebook.com/MarksandSpen...

Member of the IDF? Tough shit if you travel abroad. Only a matter of time before they are arrested, charged and have their day in court. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjGs...

Britain needs lorry drivers – we’re told. The government simplified the training process (now even an inexperienced car driver can go straight to driving 44 tonne articulated vehicles)... ...However, is it potentially addressing the issue from the wrong end?

Sturgeon said: "By making us poorer, they'll say we can't afford to be independent. By cutting our trade with the EU, they'll say we are too dependent on the rest of the UK. By causing our population to fall, they'll say the country is ageing too fast. They want us to believe we are powerless..." 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

BBC Scotland have issued more Apologies/Corrections than all other BBC Regions and all other UK Broadcasters. COMBINED Another one added to this list does not matter a jot to them. Case of 'So what - we're on message'

"PFI was a stitch up from the start." That's what financial author and journalist @ianfraser.bsky.social told me for this piece about the millions made by Sodexo from Addiewell prison. Since 2011 Addiewell limited has paid out almost £20m to shareholders. theferret.scot/addiewell-3m...

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

Two superpowers opening discussions on the future of a country which one of them is still invading, without that country

If we need money for anything in the UK, hit the 1% they are 3x richer now than in 2010. While everyone else is poorer. There is no excuse to cut anything.

🚨 US Targets International Criminal Court Trump’s executive order places sanctions on ICC officials, blocking their assets and travel. This could weaken global justice, making it harder to investigate war crimes and hold those responsible accountable. ⚖️🌍 #HumanRights 🔗 www.hrw.org/news/2025/02...

So Reform UK MP Rupert Lowe has finally spelled out the quiet part in neon letters for those who hadn’t got it yet. This political moment isn’t about limiting protection to “genuine” refugees. It is about slamming the UK shut to people fleeing danger. There’s no pretending you didn’t know.
