There are thousands of trained doctors in the UK right now — unemployed. Not because they’re unnecessary, but because the government refuses to fund the NHS roles we desperately need.

If we have the doctors, we can fund the doctors. So why won’t they?

Does anyone actually know what Keir Starmer thinks about Brexit?

My view hasn’t changed: Brexit is a disaster, Scotland belongs in Europe, so let’s become independent and join the EU with our own seat at the table.

I've been unwell and haven't been able to draw anything new for a week, but there is still a good choice of artwork in my shop and I'd love to get some sales.

In these times when everything is so fcuked up and expensive, don't get caught out by scams at this time of year. We've had enough of them from the London and Washington governments after all, without any more!

Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

He’s scrambling.

'Making England Great Again', taking Scottish skilled workers, whilst the UK Government watches Scottish Manufacturing collapse and forces Scots oot of their Homes & country as a consequence of their shite policies designed to hurt Scotland 🙄

It's happening again. Scots being forced to leave.

A quote from Professor Sir Chris Whitty CMO for England: "Just to acknowledge the really great work done in Scotland. Scotland has actually blazed a trail in many areas of Public Health." Listening to WM's broadcasters you'd be surprised to hear it . @BBCNews @SkyNews @itvnews

But this is not U.K.'s response; this was WESTMINSTER'S response!

Many of us were looking north to Nicola Sturgeon's daily updates; until the BBC started cutting them as they were showing up Johnson, Whitty and van Tamm et al for how bad they were.

I'm no scientist but could see what was happening

So long as we allow them to continue to take our oil, fish, renewables and whisky without a fight they will do whatever the hell they want to us and know we'll moan about it but do nothing. It's time we stood up to the thieving bully that is WM.

If 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 was already independent, and WM comes along with the offer of joining in a Union, as long as we pay all our revenues to them, we pay them taxes, and we give up the rights to vast areas of our land, and all our waters.
Would we do it?🤷‍♂️

People in Scotland want an asylum system that is controlled, that they have confidence in, and that shows compassion.

The Home Secretary’s proposals do none of these things.

We need a humane, effective and efficient system 🧡

In the UK, the single leading cause of death for men under 50 is suicide.

Three-quarters of all suicides in the UK are by men. This issue needs to be taken more seriously.

Vulnerability is not weakness. Open up and talk. End the stigma.
There is a frightening increase in deaths by suicide, especially among men. They are 3.7 times more likely than women to end their lives.

We need to continue to make societal changes across Europe, to create safe & affordable spaces.

Mental health is political.
