🟥 UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves produced a “growth” plan last week which was disappointing to say the least for Scottish business. 🟦 Westminster is selling Scotland short. Here are five ways in which Reeves’ growth plan underlines the fact that Scotland would be better off independent: bit.ly/4gr8vyt

🟥 As part of the UK, Scots are being penalised by an unfair energy system that doesn’t serve the needs of the people. 🟪 Scots are counting the cost of allowing another country to take responsibility for our affairs.

Bad news for Perth, Unionists from someone where outside of Scotland have found you and coloured you in green to show they know where you are to make you feel part of the Union. Great news for Shetland though is that they still haven't found you yet.

Quote of the day. An old Gaelic proverb. For example if you get ill and you don’t do anything about it the inevitable will happen. You have to take action to correct the illness. No matter how uncomfortable or frightening that may be because your only other option is ruin.

There are two kinds of opponents to Scottish independence: Those who oppose it because of a strong, nostalgic attachment to what 'Great Britain' once was. All the rest is just 'The Cringe'.
Poster pointing out that Scotland is a rich, resource-wealth country that could well afford become independent again. If it wasn't why are England's 533 MPs not immediately demanding the dissolving of the Union?

According to the right wing UK Labour Party. Disabled people who have been through multiple levels of health reviews are gaming the system. A party set up to from trade unions and socialist parties (which was also partly pro independence in Scotland) has just become a reflection of the Tory party.

A voluntary union that you can’t leave in an equal partnership that ignores you. In any other relationship that would be described as abusive and toxic. Self determination is Self care.
