You are not going to change this one Sheila. Hopefully he’ll work it out for himself before it’s too late for him and his family.

By the sound of it you would prefer to live in England but I think you’ll find things very different to what you’re used to and not in a good way.

I can’t tell someone they are wrong when they don’t want to hear. I am a grandmother of six and I can’t rest easy if my grandchildren have to live with Westminster when I am gone. I am willing to pay a little more to help others and I haven’t always had it easy.

How can you be given a Peace Prize when you are at war with your own country? This would be totally corrupt.

No Craig. You get many things the English do not get. Eg prescriptions If you have an elderly parent they will get what they need because you pay a little extra. If you have kids going to uni they don’t pay for their fees. Please stop listening to unionist Scotland bad stories. We don’t need them.

Public services in public hands. 🙌

Scotland has a lower cancellation rate than every English region.

We must now invest in expanding the network, increasing capacity, and ensuring a reliable, affordable service is available for all. 🚆

Public ownership pays off. Cancellation rates 24/25. Scotland: 2%. England: 3.5%. Cancellation rates have been falling in Scotland since ScotRail was taken back into public ownership.

It's clear, Scotland is getting better than 'the rest of Britain/Britian', in just about every measurable way.

For an even fairer society, we need to go the whole way, Scottish Independence.

There's no longer an argument.

Nothing to see here, just Trump going for his second “yearly” checkup this year.

Anyone ready to admit that something is wrong with POTUS yet?
