getting to be Prime Minister on the back of 25,000 votes in a by - election, is a travesty of democracy and gives him No Mandate whatsoever to make any decisions about Scotland's constitutional future.

Devolution died with Brexit (which Scots didn't vote for, of course) which resulted in the Internal Market Act. Undermining our parliament. Independence is the answer.

The Welsh branch office of UK Labour has suddenly noticed that Westminster's 2018 Internal Market Bill (aka PowerGrab) threatens devolved policies in Wales. Remarkably, many Scots seem oblivious to the fact that Scottish powers have been stripped and other devolved powers overruled. Where were you?

Dounreay nuclear power station last produced electricity 30+ years ago, yet decontamination is expected to last until the 2070s and cost £8Bn, with full decontamination of the site estimated to take more than 300 years. Now Westminster wants to build *more* nuclear power stations in Scotland.
