Independence will be good for Scotland and England. Doing my little bit to push it along.

Is there another nation in the world where three of the main

The problem with Labour winning the UK general election in five weeks time is that it means another 5 years of conservative government.

Tory, Labour and LibDem's 'BetterTogether', just keeps on giving.

If Labour knock on your door, or you meet rep at hustings, meetings, whatever, the key question to ask is “Why are you too scared to put the Union Jack on your Scottish placards?” Then post their reply on mastodon.

If you want just one good reason why not to vote either Tory, Labour or LibDem in Scotland, this is it - they all oppose rejoining the EU whilst more than 69% of Scots recognise the astonishing economic and cultural damage that Brexit has done and want to rejoin.

It already is, Starmer old chap. And we’ll sell it at very reasonable rates to England after we’re independent. Better rates than you lot currently charge us for using our own power.

This is silly. Of course he would if that was the only way to form a government and have power. Not that, as an SNP voter I’d be wholly happy about the idea myself.

Scotland. Your reminder that Labour wants to dismantle devolution just as much as the Tories do, and their aim is to systematically reduce devolved powers and then ultimately close Holyrood. We've been warned. If we vote Labour then what follows is our own fault.

To update Alan Bissett's famous and accurate statement from 2014: "If we vote Tory/Labour/LibDem, London will hear only this: Do whatever the hell you like to Scotland, because we don't care enough about ourselves to stop you."

Voters in Scotland remember this: for Tories and Labour England is the priority and will always come first. Scotland will only ever - ever - get what it needs or wants if it happens to coincide with what England wants. Use your vote wisely.

From BetterTogether "save our NHS by voting No" in 2014, to Labour “The NHS must be privatised." What a difference 10 years make.

Read the news you're not getting: In England, the only country in the world to have fully privatised water & sewerage systems, raw sewage was discharged into rivers and seas for more than 3.6m hours in 2023. More than double 2022. Meanwhile Scottish Water, publicly owned, has invested nearly 35 per cent more per household in infrastructure since 2002 than the privatised English firms, charging 14 per cent less and not paying out dividends.

Independent Portugal generated the equivalent of 91% of its electricity needs through renewables by March 2024.
It has Europe's lowest power prices.
Non independent Scotland generated the equivalent of 113% of its overall electricity needs through renewables in 2022.
It has the UK's highest power prices.

Since the 2014 'Vow' of more powers Westminster has accelerated the hobbling of Scotland's devolved choices and is now actively overruling what Scottish voters want and have voted for in elections. Increasingly Scotland must use its remaining devolved powers any way it chooses as long as that is the same way that England does.

James Kelly: “In a first-past-the-post election, the way to further the cause of independence is to unite behind a single candidate in each constituency.” Spot on.

Meanwhile ‘renewables powerhouse’ Scotland pays the highest electricity bills in the UK, and the highest transmission charges in Europe to feed our power into the ‘national’ grid. Would any other country put up with this rip-off?

With a population only 8.5% of the UK, Scotland produces 40% of the UK’s renewable power.

First they removed powers by stealth. Then they removed them in bulk through Brexit. Now they are going to impose their choices whether we want them or not. https://www.thenational.scot/news/24322045.alister-jack-asks-uk-government-plan-scottish-nuclear-reactor/

“INDEPENDENCE supporters risk repeating the lost 2014 referendum due to a lack of understanding about why the Yes campaign failed, it has been warned as a new campaign looks to resolve the issue.”
But we know why it failed: too many people were scared, successfully, by ‘Project Fear’ and the predominantly pro-union media, & particularly by the BBC. As Blair Mcdougall so clearly put it “We’d have struggled to win without the scaremongering.”
