🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿In 1820, in Glasgow and Stirling, Scottish “traitors” to the british crown were publicly hanged then beheaded by the british state. They then had their severed heads held up as a warning to other Scots. Know the history that you were never taught 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🇬🇧 That’s right Duncan

Energy and resource rich Scotland is far “too wee, too poor, too stupid etc” to be a normal, small and successful, European country, like so many of our friends and neighbours 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🇬🇧 The brexity Telegraph are raging because EU countries are going to enforce their laws in relation to british “overstayers”

Or “ILLEGALS” as Reform, Blue Tories & Red Tories generally like to call them

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The brexit that every Region in Scotland voted to utterly reject, has turned out to be the unmitigated economic and social disaster that we knew it would be

Internationalist Scotland is no longer politically compatible with insular England, and their deluded, supremacist, brexit nostalgia trip

Kevin McKenna is on the glue 😵‍💫

I’d say that “there’s a feeling” amongst the vast majority of Scots, that the Orange Order are bigoted, sectarian, knuckle-dragging orcs

There really isn’t a risk in this one, as SNP will probably win between 0 & 2 List seats if we all vote for them

We could easily return 20-25 Greens on the Regional List

In 2021 :

40.3% vote for the SNP returned 2 seats out of 56

23.1% vote for the Blue Tories “won” 24 seat out of 56

Just for clarity, in every previous election I was BOTH votes SNP

It turns out that in every one of these elections my SNP Regional List vote went in the bin 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well know at the time of the election how best to vote for Indy in each Region

Better we elect 20-25 Indy Greens in the Regional list, than waste our List votes and see 20-25 Murdo Frasers elected 🤮

Hi Sheila, for Indy we need to “box clever” at HR26

Despite having only 30-35% of the vote, the SNP are currently predicted to win a narrow majority of Constituency seats in each Region

The consequence of this will be ZERO SNP seats returned in the Regional List, regardless of the SNP votes cast

“Rebellious Scots” 😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 @markrich68.bsky.social · 1d

In 2021, in the Regional List:

40.3% vote for the SNP returned 2 seats out of 56

23.1% vote for the Blue Tories “won” 24 seat out of 56

The SNP are currently projected to return ZERO List seats at HR26

If we can get 25% to vote for Greens (not SNP) in the List, it’ll mean 80-90 Indy MSPs
