Currently Politically homeless but believe Independence is the only way forward for Scotland. Scottish and European not British. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺
The ignorance of Westminster. Scotland is always an afterthought.

Why does Westminster always forget about Shetland?
WHETHER it’s Labour or the Tories in charge at Westminster one thing is for sure – they will forget to include Shetland in a UK-wide map.

Farage is actually a fascist pretending to be a defender of "liberty" and "freedom"....what he really means is "freedom for ME but not for THEE".

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.

Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.

Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

Of course, the Government's response to my petition asking for a full transparency review of UK free zones was always going to be one of immense gaslighting.

Here is David Coburn, the former UKIP MEP who was mentioned in WhatsApp messages between the traitor Nathan Gill and his Russian paymaster, saying there was cash available for Coburn.
Needless to say, I have never met the man.

The only thing Nigel Farage has ever worked at is being Nigel Farage
Nigel Farage went to Dulwich college which charges £55,155 a year.

He then went on to be a Stock Trader like Rishi Sunak, he has never worked a day in his life.

On no account can Scotland allow the Scottish NHS to go down the same route, although if WM are "saving" money in doing what they're doing the Scottish funding will be reduced accordingly which will not help.
"Already, England has privatised much of the NHS. Indeed, my colleagues down south consider that NHS England is too far gone to bring it back under public ownership."

Ireland had to fight for their independence from the Brits, they're now reaping the benefits of making their own decisions without the interference of WM, it's time Scotland did the same.

April 2022 Income Tax Threshold £12,570
April 2031 Income Tax Threshold £12,570

Should be about £16,970.

Meaning every person earning £16,970 or more is paying £1,231.86 more in tax.

Threshold freezes are a tax on the poorest.

The upcoming Holyrood election might not be a referendum but it’s probably the most important one since devolution.

With Westminster imploding and their Scottish sub-parties dragging Scotland’s progress down at every turn we can’t afford to let them anywhere near Holyrood.

This one really matters.

How Scotland voted to Remain.

We saw through the lies and voted accordingly.

Yet Westminster forced us out regardless.
