Farage built Brexit, and Brexit broke Britain. Nigel Farage is the cause of the mess we’re in - not the solution.

We’re against Starmer’s Brit-card.

Here in Europe, for many years we used to say that the problem with American politics was that the USA had two right wing parties. That's not true any more. Now the USA has a right wing party and a fascist personality cult.

Things are dire for Labour when even BBC Scotland is attacking Sarwar and the Labour party for their inaction and lies regarding the closure of Grangemouth. For Labour in Scotland, that's like being savaged by your pet lamb.

Your reminder that control of nuclear waste, it’s disposal and control of *where* it’s disposed of was one of the 24 key powers Westminster seized via Brexit and their infamous Powergrab of Scottish devolved powers.

Just a general point. If you don't understand the difference between Reform UK style reactionary nationalism & left wing support for Scottish independence, lumping both together as "nationalism=bad". You should probably refrain from commenting and making your ignorance public.

Westminster’s 2018 powergrab of Scottish devolved powers included nuclear waste planning and disposal. I wonder where they’ll want to dump it? Somewhere 'remote', I imagine, with a 'low population'.

I'm sure all those people in West London whose homes are going to be bulldozed to make way for Heathrow's third runway are thrilled that it's going to benefit the Scottish economy - *allegedly*. Here's a radical idea, how about Westminster investing in SCOTLAND'S ports & airports?

Labour have announced they are investing taxpayer money to drive growth "across the UK". Guess where almost all of it is going.
Labour's plan to invest money in "all corners of our country"...is almost entirely for South-East England

Under the SNP, Scotland gets free university tuition, winter heating payments, and no NHS prescription or hospital parking charges. Meanwhile, Labour in England keeps costs high for students, pensioners, and patients. A fairer Scotland is only possible with the SNP.

Every week, Labour and the Tories sit and posture - not once offering a single solution to help the people of Scotland. They're high on rhetoric and low on delivery. We're focused on real solutions and putting in the hard work to deliver for the people of Scotland.

Rachel Reeves only needed to promise a mere £3m for the Rosyth to Zeebrugge ferry & could have claimed to be working to boost the Scottish economy, but she didn't. It's hard to escape the conclusion this Labour Govt just isn't very good at politics. www.thenational.scot/politics/248...

We’re working hard to avoid it, but if opposition parties block the Budget, the consequences are devastating: ❌ NHS funding slashed ❌ Cancelled operations, pay rises at risk ❌ No winter heating payments for pensioners ❌ Halted progress on teachers, housing & the A9

The budget presented by @thesnp.bsky.social Scottish Government will deliver record funding to Scotland's councils. North Lanarkshire must now use this funding to prevent any excessive rise in council tax and invest in local services. A reversal of their school transport cuts would be a good start

This what the SNP budget means. - Above inflation raise on basic and intermediate rate thresholds, meanings most Scots will pay less tax than in the rest of the UK - Labour's Winter Fuel Payment cut reversed with a Pension Age Winter Heating Payment - Tory/Labour cruel two-Child Cap going

I'm seeing lots of horror stories from Americans about their hassles with health insurance bills. Here in Scotland in 2020 I had a massive stroke, I was in hospital for many weeks & required intensive rehab for months after. Our sole out of pocket expense was snacks for my husband's stress eating.
