#indyclan I think that more than ever, Scotland's voice needs to be heard on the international stage. The 'UK' doesn't cut it.

Yoons went from taking Putin's money (remeber Tory Friends of Russia?) to running away from his agents. Hardly good judgement

In 1659, the the Puritans in Massachusetts enacted a law that declared that Christmas was sacrilege and exchanging of gifts, greetings, and wearing fine clothing on that day was Satanic. Anyone caught celebrating was fined 5 shillings. (About 5 days wages.) The "War on Christmas" was an inside job.

What has the SNP ever done for us? Another success story…….. Built on time and within budget, the Borders Railway opened in 2015. Initially it was thought the Borders Railway would carry around 600,000 passengers a year. In reality, within 3 years of opening, that figure had tripled.

As someone who watched in astonishment as rUK millionaire's donated huge sums to the BetterTogether campaign in 2013/14 - far more than available to the pro-indy campaign - I watch now as supporters of the UK establishment recoil at outsiders daring to fund Reform. How do you like them apples?

I can’t stop thinking about this page of allegations from Blake Lively’s lawsuit. If this could happen to an A-list actress on a set for a movie that made $350 million, it could happen to anyone on any kind of set.
night, which he said was important to him because he and his partner climax simultaneously during
intercourse. Mr. Baldoni then intrusively asked Ms. Lively whether she and her husband climax
simultaneously during intercourse, which Ms. Lively found invasive and refused to discuss.
35. On the day of shooting the scene in which Ms. Lively's character gives birth, Mr.
Baldoni and Mr. Heath suddenly pressured Ms. Lively to simulate full nudity, despite no mention of nudity
for this scene in the script, her contract, or in previous creative discussions. Mr. Baldoni insisted to Ms.
Lively that women give birth naked, and that his wife had "ripped her clothes off during labor. He claimed it was "not normal" for women to remain in their hospital gowns while giving birth. Ms. Lively
disagreed, but felt forced into a compromise that she would be naked from below the chest down.®
36. When the birth scene was filmed, the set was chaotic, crowded and utterly lacking
in standard industry protections for filming nude scenes-such as choregraphing the scene with an
intimacy coordinator, having a signed nudity rider, or simply turning off the monitors so the scene was not broadcast to all crew on set (and on their personal phones and iPad). Mr. Heath and Mr. Baldoni also
failed to close the set, allowing non-essential crew to pass through while Ms. Lively was mostly nude with
her legs spread wide in stirrups and only a small piece of fabric covering her genitalia. Among the non-
essential persons present that day was Wayfarer co-Chairman Mr. Sarowitz, who flew in for one of his
few set visits. Ms. Lively was not provided with anything to cover herself with between takes until after
she had made multiple requests. Ms. Lively became even more alarmed when Mr. Baldoni introduced his
"best friend" to play the role of the OBGYN, when ordinarily, a small role of this nature would be filled
by a local actor. Ms. Lively felt that the selection of Mr. Baldoni's friend for this intimate role,…
