#Scotland

True statement. Unfortunately if the UK/US trade deal goes ahead the fabulously wealthy global tech giants like Amazon will pay even less tax! Isolated and alone Brexit Britain will have to do what Trump demands.

Scotland keeps suffering from Fiscal Rules set by Westminster. We're not the ones who've constantly racked up trillions of debt. Ffs, we have little borrowing powers, & THEY steal our resources! Time for Independence and Time, our people had a better life!

There is rich soil. Plant the idea and let it grow.

💛 Thanks to the SNP Gov keeping Scottish Water in public hands, our water will be £113 cheaper on average than Labour-run, privately owned, England and Wales. 🥀 In 2026, when the The Scottish Parliament election comes, don't let Labour get their hands on Scotland's water.

I know times are tough right now. People and businesses are facing a lot of pressure, and are wondering what’s coming next. This morning, I set out how my government will respond to the economic uncertainty with action and practical solutions. Here’s a short thread in case you missed it 👇🧵

I alluded to the fact that Starmer will pull out the stops to retain jobs in England as he is quite right to do so. But he also gave a green light for the INEOS boss Jim Ratcliffe to plough millions into building a new football stadium, Funnily enough in England rather than retain Scottish jobs.

We will be more than OK as an independent country. #independence #Scotland #YES

Probably pictured after a heavily subsidised lunch with cheap taxpayer funded alcohol! Makes me 🤮 to the back 🦷!

Starmer wants to relationalise British Steel in Scunthorpe & is now in talks to reopen an Airport in South Yorkshire yet wont lift a finger for Grangemouth? It's the same old story, England first, Scotland comes a very poor second when it comes to infrastructure projects.Why do we put up with this?

80% of Britons and 62% of Americans don't like Elon Musk. If you don't like Elon Musk, Like this Post. Lets see if we can make it the most liked one on BlueSky.
