Agree and if it’s the first tip toe steps into making independence the topic and not party politics per se, then I’m behind it 100%

With only 38 weeks until Scotland votes for her very future, I feel that our First Minister is being side tracked by events in Israel, just as Nicola Sturgeon was side tracked by the Gender Reform Bill.
Independence first !

Absolutely right @johnswinney.bsky.social and we agree with you, but PLEASE get it done - what’s the plan, the timeline, the process to demand a 2nd referendum, the legal options, (high court, EU or UN courts etc)? The electorate, your AND other Indy supporters need/demand/deserve to know !

Personally, I'm not bothered about an extra £10k @johnswinney.bsky.social I would rather that my country was free & Independent first & foremost. We can enjoy the other obvious benefits properly once we untangle ourselves from this unequal & unholy alliance that is the UK. To me that is worth more.

Well please tell John Swinney to get it done - what’s the plan, the timeline, the process to demand a 2nd referendum, the legal options, (high court, EU or UN courts etc)? The electorate, your AND other Indy supporters need/demand/deserve to know !

Jenrick,

Let's take our country back.

What country?, back from whom? This is the language of division and hate.

I think he may be right though, its time for Scotland & England's independence, from each other.

I don’t get the opposition to it - it’s YOUR id on YOUR phone protected by YOUR security (face/pin/finger etc) that YOU share/show when YOU want.
If you’ve nothing to hide why the objection ?

Westminster wants Scotland to accept nuclear power stations for the same reason they site their Trident WMDs here: because they are safely far away from their core voters in the SE of England.

Andrew Sharpe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿|🇪🇺 @andrew.sharpe.scot · 6d

Ed Miliband has confirmed that a vote for Anas Sarwar to be first minister is a vote for nuclear power stations in Scotland

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland already more than meets its own annual demand through renewable energy - we don’t need dangerous and dirty nuclear energy.

Imagine what Scotland could achieve as a normal independent country free from the constraints of our thieving colonisers, the #AngloState?

John Swinney @johnswinney.bsky.social · 8d

What are we doing to help with the cost of living?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scrapped peak rail fares
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Free prescriptions and eye tests
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Lower water bills and council tax than rest of the UK

While Westminster governments deliver cuts and chaos, the SNP is delivering for Scotland.

Save money: don’t buy a dishwasher. Instead put the plates etc on the floor and let the dog/cat lick them. The put them away. It’s the same distance and effort in the bending down and up as if you had a dishwasher - job done!
