The Scotch Whisky Association isn't remotely Scottish.
Their ex-CEO became Head Brexit Negotiator!
Their biggest member is the very un-scottish behemoth, Diageo.
The Scotch Whisky Association is very anti Scottish Independence.
It's full of Unionist lobbyists.
It tells lies about Scotch Whisky.

This is why Westminster directly holds Scotland back - Blue Tories or Red Tories or anyone else - they are all the same... conning the people and communities of Scotland and hoping we don't notice their pish-stained pink trousers!
Mairi Gougeon MSP has submitted a motion condemning the UK Government’s decision to award a paltry 7.78% of the "Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund" to Scotland.
Scotland accounts for more than 60% of the UK’s fishing capacity.

Scotland’s history is one of resilience. From ancient clans to modern communities, this small nation has always punched above its weight. Our people are tough, compassionate, and fiercely protective of one another.

The Saltire is considered to be the oldest flag in Europe, first used in 832. St Andrew's Day is our national day - when all of Scotland's people, no matter their origin, come together.
This year why not take the opportunity to look forward to a fairer, stronger, independent Scotland.

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.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

If people in Scottish constituencies are going to vote in unionist parties they should at least have enough principles to refuse free prescriptions, eye tests, tuition fees, personal care, etc, etc. otherwise that choice seems very hypocritical.

The level of British media attacks is in proportion to the threat their owners perceive against the English Establishment. Sturgeon's public popularity and success is a huge trigger. Do we care?

The front pages of Scotland’s newspapers are a disgrace today. All of them harping about how Nicola was doing harm during Covid.
If you really want to see how biased the media is today is the day.
