Our event with Dr Philippa Whitford talking about a wellbeing economy vision for a Scotland last night went extremely well. Plenty to think about! It's well worth other groups getting Philippa along - an inspiring speaker! Thanks go to Philippa & her hubby Hans who travelled from Troon to join us😀

I want to see #ScottishIndependence not because I am a nationalist, but because I am an internationalist.

Because I would like Scotland to be a good neighbour to England as that country works through its dysfunctional issues, not dragged along in its chaos.

EU politician Guy Verhofstadt visits Edinburgh in November. He says of the Scots;

“They are not isolationists but internationalists. They are not fantasists, but realists. They are not afraid of deep democratic cooperation between states but see the clear benefits of it."

Was great hearing Dr Phillipa Whitford talk about her experiences in Palestine and Gaza recently - and how we can help. Here's a short from after the event.

Israel has announced it's building a concentration camp in Gaza.

Imagine seeing this news and deciding you should aim your fire at the few politicians speaking out, rather than condemning the crime.

On Israel and comparisons with the Nazis

After Israel announces it's building a concentration camp, condemning the few politicians speaking out is morally twisted
