Dear Scotland.
Nigel Farage says he will slash the Scottish budget. So look forward to things being alot worse under Reform UK. He also wants to privatise the NHS. Are you stupid enough to vote for them and to be worse off as a result? Most of their candidates are Tories!

FFS can we boycott rUK bottled water? We don't need it here in Scotland, we have too much water here FROM OUR TAPS, if you prefer sparkling, only buy it when it is Scottish Water.

I'm sick of this made-up industry to fleece gullible Scots into enriching other areas of the UK. Tastes shite too 🤣😂🤣

Straight out the #Trump playbook
#Reform #Pochin is a lunatic who allegedly gets scared if 2 female police officers attend an incident alone

Or in her dinosaur words "police women". What a cretin

#Scotland Deny these lying extremists any success. They're horrific
@snp.org
This is pretty menacing.

Sarah Pochin wrote to Bangor's university student run debating society requesting that she attend to "answer questions from students."

When they said "no" Reform rolled all it's tanks onto the lawns and said they'll cut funding to the entire university if they win.

You make a lot of good points in this thread John .. I think even the most ardent SNP voter can see in the previous elections SNP 1+2 does not work and only reduces other pro independence parties and boosts pro union parties
I will lend the SNP my 1st vote but the Scottish Greens get my second

Westminster has failed Scotland.

A new Prime Minister won't change that. It's time for independence.

Gary Robertson has tried to link Celtic FC to the Epstein/Mandelson scandal. Why try to smear a Scottish football club instead of asking about Anas Sarwar's admitted long term friendship with the disgraced Labour peer? Shocking from the BBC Scotland presenter.

Indeed! After Independence, political parties will change, die, morph into new parties. Maybe Some SNP and Labour join. Maybe Tories die without funding from down south. The difference being that only Scotland and Scottish people will decide!
