Starmer mimicking the far right with his call for Patriotic National Renewal is an appeal to voters out with Scotland.Our renewal, reform and future is in our hands if we have the courage to back Scotland's right to self determination as an independent country.

When voting Labour in 2024 is this the "change" people wanted to see ?...I sincerely hope the same mistake isn't made when votes are cast for Holyrood with @AnasSarwar @ScottishLabour wanting to take us in a "new direction"...ie following @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour

In 2011 the SNP had a majority Govt. In 2016 when tactical voting gained traction it was two seats short of a majority.In 2021 despite tactical voting it was one seat short.It currently holds 60 seats following divisions & one by election loss. It is not"impossible". As always the people will decide

And be able to cite UN Human Rights Chief, Volker Türk as a witness who can define "terrorism" in international law.

Steve Reed has walked into a situation of his own making ...by interfering in matters devolved to Holyrood. As if he didn't have enough on his plate.

The statement isn't a comprehensive comparison between Scotland & England..I looked to see if they had produced a report doing so. It's difficult to see where the Environment Secretary is getting his info from. Perhaps he should clarify it by publishing it.I did see the map with all the X UK.

Steve Reed MP Secretary of State for Environment in England, deflecting from the Sewage Scandal engulfing private water companies in England, lied on ITV News,"things were worse in Scotland" under public control.He should be held to account & asked to apologise for lying & resign

Even on voting registration ".British" No option for Scots under nationality. It's the process of normalisation in Starmers dream of " one nation "

Starmer just dumped on @anassarwar.bsky.social and Labour MPs in Scotland who blindly justified and defended his flagship Welfare Bill only for him to effectively abandon it in the final minutes before the vote.

POTUS believes himself to be The Supreme Ruler of the United States.He is riding rough shod over every principle the USA was founded on and shredding the US Constitution in front of the whole world.

Photos tell a story.Trump & Netanyahu are hand in hand. Starmer grovels to Trump and gives him a Royal Invitation to visit the UK. Trump is side by side with Farage whom he wants to install as UK Prime Minister.

Surprised at the lack of interest and coverage of the Hamilton/Stonehouse/Larkhall by election. It's almost as if Scotland wasn't part of the UK.There is a story unfolding of interest to rest of UK.

Starmer opened the door to the rise of the far right.The "British"Labour Party. We are all "British" ."British values." Britishness: Britishness : Britishness. Reform has seized upon his imagery of "one country called Britain" and is taking steps to turn it into a political reality..

Sir Keir Starmer's "island of strangers"comment was no slip of the tongue. It was a deliberate attempt to win lost ground back from Reform.He should be made to define who "the strangers"are...It stinks of sub conscious racism coming to the surface.... from a British Prime Minister.

A better option is the entire YES Movement rallying behind SNP. Win an majority Govt (not just majority of MSPs as in 2016 & 2021) but 2011 when Alex Salmond advocated both votes SNP.That led to the 2014 Referendum. By precedent it will make Indyref2 impossible to block.Then the people decide.

Clydebank Post article shows the contrast between Scottish Govt priorities and those of Westminster. If Labour in Scotland take control of Holyrood in 2026 they will adopt Westminster cuts.

Unfortunately Labour MPs in Scottish Constituencies will do the bidding of the Westminster Labour Group Whip whilst @anassarwar.bsky.social does the bidding of @ianmurraymp.bsky.social...

What is defence? £ billions on a "nuclear deterrent"which can never be used without loss of millions of lives...or defence against poverty, physical & mental health crises,housing & homelessness crises,killer diseases,national emergencies caused by climate change.... It's a political choice.

Shame on each and every Labour MP who betrays the founding principles of a once great political party created by the very people they are now turning their backs on.

Car crash interview on BBC by Rachel Reeves. She displayed no empathy whatsoever with the most vulnerable, disabled and disadvantaged members of society.Even the pro Labour Mirror gets it.The National is right. This is austerity budgeting.

One Labour Party MP in Scotland has the moral courage to publically speak out.Where are all the others? Where are the Labour MSPs standing up for their constituents? @anassarwar.bsky.social is not a leader. He is simply a puppet dancing to Starmer's strings.

Only one question remains and that's for a jury in a court of law to decide.Nothing to do with @anassarwar.bsky.social The question is whether Peter Murrell is guilty of embezzlement whilst CEO of the SNP.No one else is accused of any wrongdoing.The SNP the alleged victim in any potential case.

Operation Branchform:four years:£2.2 million police costs:£206,000 COPFS costs..."the Crown does not publicly share details of confidential cases where there are no proceedings in court "....in other words they had zilch on Nicola Sturgeon & Colin Beattie so dropped the investigation.

Having been there I know it takes a lot for a life long Labour Party member who has had disagreements before on policy matters and the direction the party is going, to eventually say enough is enough...There are still matters he and I won't agree on but respect to Neil for taking a principled stand.

The cost of continuing failure in dealing with tax avoidance( £5 billion annually) is the problem not those with a wide range support needs.The cost of Starmer's economic strategy will impact not just in terms of finance but social devastation for a great many individuals and families.

£5 billion lost through tax evasion by the rich. @anassarwar.bsky.social backs the Westminster Labour Govt in cutting £6 billion from welfare which taxpayers fund.

Danny McCafferty @dmccafferty49.bsky.social · 17/03/2025
Starmer & Reeves are about to cut welfare spending. Effectively taxpayers money which pay for public services, being used to pay for other Labour Govt priorities *not necessarily those of the public.Notably pensions expenditure at 48% is included in welfare as a "benefit" and not an entitlement.

@copfs.bsky.social ...Enough is enough.A decision is required now that @policescotland.bsky.social have completed their investigation and passed it on.It goes against the public interest and natural justice for this to continue being played out.

Now what is he up to ? Worried about public perception in the USA that he is pro Russia/pro Putin? If true his Achilles heel is showing...Nothing matters to Trump but his public image.

There should be no need for Keir Starmer's "spokespeople" to comment on Trump and Vance's attack on President Zelensky.Starmer should be personally speaking out directly,loudly and clearly.
