NEW: Northern Ireland’s First Minister, Michelle O’Neill, announces she is boycotting White House events in response to Trump’s policy on Gaza. There are deep ties between Northern Ireland, the US & the Presidency forged during the peace process. Ties Trump is clearly shredding.

NEW: Whilst Trump praises dictators & terrors states, JD Vance just decided to insult Europe. The gall of Vance lecturing Europe on democracy whilst serving a man who led an insurrection to overturn an election.

NEW: Nicola Sturgeon is '100 per cent' certain Scottish independence will happen in her lifetime

Labour's grand plan to bring equality to Scotland & to show just how much we are valued within the union. @uklabourparty.bsky.social @anassarwar.bsky.social #AreYouYesYet #WhyNotScotland #DissolveTheUnion

YouGov find just 30% of people think we were right to leave the EU. The lowest number yet. Just 10% of 18-24 year olds think it was the right decision.

What is wrong with the BBC and its relationship with Scotland? It seems that deep in its DNA,it can't talk about a party that wants to make Scotland independent That's not a British Broadcasting Corporation as a result. It's an English Broadcasting Corporation. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/06...

If Anas Sarwar truly cared about Scotland’s NHS, he'd demand the UK government fully fund their employee national insurance hikes instead of expecting our public services to foot the bill. Anas Sarwar can’t stand up to Keir Starmer, how can he stand up for Scotland?

Red Tories. Is this what you voted for Scotland? #ScottishIndependenceASAP

First Minister @johnswinney.bsky.social: "On the basis of the last few months, what people in Scotland are waking up to is the fundamental dishonesty of the Labour Party, and Mr Sarwar epitomises it." #FMQs

Keep reposting this folks, don’t let Sarwar or 'Scottish' Labour off the hook. ‘‘CM: This is about central Scotland as well, Grangemouth for example, would you step in to save the refinery? AS: We would step in to save the jobs at the refinery.’’

Did you vote Labour in 2024? Is this what you voted for?

In my time on social media I've seen some posts, But none as well set out as this. The underlying question is 'Why are folk so subservient to London, Why do people in Scotland believe that the elite in London know what's best for them'? Is it laziness, Is it apathy, Or just a lack of ambition?

SNP and other indy parties and wider indy movement need to get this important information out to the general population somehow, we all know the MSM are biased towards the union, TV and newspapers are a massively effective propaganda medium.

❄️ Our Budget brings in a Winter Heating Payment next winter for pensioners, to fix Labour's mess. 💷 £100 for every pensioner household. 📈 £200-300 for those receiving Pension Credits, depending on age.

🏥@scotgov's #budget will deliver £2 billion more for Scotland's NHS - taking funding to a record £21 billion. The SNP will make it easier for people to access GP appointments, improve A&E, and ensure more Scots get the care they need in good time. 👇 @thesnp.bsky.social #ScottishBudget

In one of those random coincidences the universe sometimes serves up, having been unable to make Janey’s Edinburgh send-off, I found myself behind her hearse all the way back west. ‘You better no crash intae the back as me’ I could hear her say. An honour to chum you home, pal. See you tomorrow 😢

Common Ground – two constitutional paths – one European future Independence or Union? Former Labour and SNP MEPs to debate Scotland’s best route back into the EU bylines.scot/brexit/europ...

Following an FOI request by @theSNP, the Labour UK government confirmed that the Chancellor held ZERO meetings with Labour MSPs ahead of the budget. That includes their leader in Scotland, Anas Sarwar. They didn't just fail to stand up for Scotland - they didn't even try. x.com/S_A_Somervil...

Shameless performance from Labour MSPs in today's National Insurance hike debate. Some used up debate time talking about anything other than NI, but their deputy leader Jackie Bailie argued for civil servants' jobs to be cut to balance the books. Labour austerity looks a lot like Tory austerity 🥀
