Tax accounts for 75% of the price of an average bottle of Scotch Whisky.

The increase in 2023, made 'Duty' for Scotch Whisky £31.64, per litre of pure Alcohol.

It's a blatant, exploitative, 203 year-old, scam.

These £billions always go directly to Westminster.

We need Scottish Independence.

This is a bombshell: One of Epstein's victims accused Trump of sexually and violently assaulting her when she was "13 to 15" and the FBI deemed her credible enough to warrant an interview.
FBI Interviewed Trump Accuser, Epstein Files Show
Trump was credibly accused of sexual assault in the Epstein files. It's unclear what became of the DOJ's investigation.

Similarly, @bbclaurak.bsky.social's recent documentary Reform: Ready to Rule?👇 omitted any questions on #Reform's funders+what they might want. How can #BBC audiences judge if *any* party is ready+fit for govt, if we know nothing about who is funding them+the thinktanks behind their policies? 6/

AFAIK there's been no serious investigation/reporting on funding of political parties+the think tanks that shape their ideology+policies since 2022's important doc The Other Black Door please see link below. IMO this is a dereliction of duty to inform+educate audiences by #BBCNews

I think #BBCNews is *failing* in this respect. There is a lack of bite, curiousity+boldness in holding to account UK political parties on their funding+what funders want in return. I believe the #BBC, as with its failures on #Epstein, will come to regret that lack,+more importantly, so will we. 3/

Latest stats out today show unemployment rate in Scotland is significantly below the UK’s.

With limited powers, we’re building a stronger economy and creating more jobs.

Imagine how much more we could do with the full powers of independence.

Standing up to racism shouldn’t be a partisan issue.

Trump posts an objectively racist video, and MAGA is silent.

All while he continues to nominate bigots and dine with Holocaust deniers.

It’s clear who this President is. And it should disgust all of us.

If you have a Royal Family, you have deference.

If you have a Royal Family, you have a class system.

If you have a RF, you essentially say, "These people are better than everyone else by dint of birth & should maintain enormous influence, wealth and power."

Why would anyone want that at all?
