Only Benefits

At midnight on the last day of each year the world sings a song written in Scotland toasted with a drink made in Scotland.
Yet we’re not allowed to decide if we can be an independent nation because our neighbour won’t permit us to. #Scotland #IndependenceIsNormal #GE2026

Did you know that millionaire Scottish financial investor William Alan McIntosh has donated £100,000 to Nigel Farage's Reform UK party? What do you think he expects to get in return? #Scotland #IndependenceIsNormal #GE2026

"Scotland’s aristocratic families do not cling to their massive estates only because of income but because of the influence it confers – to them, and their children, and their children’s children. It is about controlling Scotland’s future in the way they control so much of its present."
Land is power – Scotland’s people have none
Land isn't just about wealth and justice, it's about power. Scotland is cut off from its own land resources and hence is poorer as a nation

Scotland didn't vote for Thatcher or any Tory government. We voted to Remain and have been hard hit by Brexit. Now it looks as though England could present us with a Reform government. We're tired of being shackled to a self destructive, undemocratic, failing state with delusions of grandeur.

Trump's attack on Venezuela will create global instability.

Will prolong the Ukraine war. How could the US condemn and sanction Russia?

Encourage Putin to kidnap Zelensky.

Encourage China to takeover Taiwan.

What is the point of the UN if rogue powers can do whatever they want?

Farage wants to privatise the NHS, even Tice is now saying it:

"Instead of giving £26bn to the already bloated wasteful NHS, we proposed easing pressure on the health service by incentivising those who can afford to pay more to go independent with a tax break."

You know the Epstein Files are bad when the orange felon bombs Venezuela, murders their citizens and kidnaps their leader all to distract from his sex crimes with children.

This is what happens when you give a deranged criminal full power instead of sending him to prison.

In Gaza, another Palestinian child has died of exposure due to cold, wet weather and a lack of proper shelter. Malak Rami Ghneim was just a few weeks old, one of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians forced to shelter in flimsy tents offering little to no protection from the elements.
