Even Bobby’s shower flashback in Dallas has nothing on Labour’s psychodrama. This is the strong & stable UK Scotland apparently cannot do without. These are the indispensable, political grown-ups. Wake up everyone. Time for Scots to run the show ourselves thenational.scot/comment/261…

🏴 Scotland’s food & drink exports hit £7.14bn in 2024, that’s £1,288 per person.
🏴 England exported £12.12bn, just £207 per person.
🇪🇺 Imagine the potential if Scotland were an independent nation back in the European Union.

When @theSNP took power 18 years ago, the top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, were ALL in Scotland.
Today,
The top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, are ALL in England.
I’ll take that as a positive governance of Scotland.

Scotland is a nation - and every nation has the right to choose its own future.
Our pledge is simple: choice, fairness and democracy must guide Scotland’s path.
Add your name today: yes.scot/decide
ALT A crowd of people carrying Yes flags fills a city street. Large text reads: "YOUR RIGHT TO DECIDE." Below, a pledge states that Scotland is a nation with the right to choose its future – to decide its own government, build secure homes and communities, use renewable wealth to lower bills, protect the NHS, take its place in Europe, and put fairness and democracy at the heart of its journey. The text ends: "This is our pledge, our right, and our opportunity: to write the next chapter in Scotland’s story together." At the bottom are the SNP logo and the Scottish flag.

A country of only 5 million people, with an abundance of natural resources, that countries double our size, would literally die for, should not be trying to manage a budget, decided by another country.
The Union doesn’t work for 🏴, we work for it.

Whilst people here face a UK Government inspired cost of living crisis, winter fuel payment cuts & austerity, folk in independent Ireland are benefitting from a budget giveaway.
It’s time to get out of Broken Brexit Britain - it’s time for independence! 🏴

Today, I will vote against Labour’s plan to cut winter fuel payments.
How will your MP vote?
