Scotland is a nation, and we have the right to decide our own future. On Tuesday, I’ll ask MSPs in the Scottish Parliament to back that simple principle. Whatever your view on independence, that should be something we can all agree on.

The Herald claims the Murrell scandal is "the biggest political scandal in a generation." Bigger than Mandelson? Bigger than partygate? Bigger than Horizon scandal? Bigger than Windrush scandal? Bigger than Tory PPE VIP lane scandal? Bigger than cash for honours? Someone needs to get a grip.

The SNP absolutely must boycott Westminster's "inquiry" into the SNP's finances. It's not a real inquiry, it's nothing more than a transparent attempt to score political points by parties which just lost an election in Scotland. Plus it will annoy George Foulkes.

The Scottish Parliament has just affirmed, by a clear majority, the right of people in Scotland to decide their constitutional future. This is democracy and it must be respected. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The current media fury, painting the SNP as the guilty party instead of the truth that it's the victim of a crime is about 3 things 1. They never got charges laid against Sturgeon 2. They didn't succeed in detroying the SNP & getting Sarwar as FM. 3. They didn't prevent an indy majority in Holyrood

Despite the UK media telling us the SNP 'failed' to win a majority, the SNP won 58 seats, 2 more than the combined total 56 seats won by the 4 anti-indy parties. The Greens won 15 seats taking the pro-indy MSP total to 73, a record pro-indy result, a double mandate for this Scottish Parliament.

Important data point here: “A sharp fall in Labour's performance is accompanied more often by an above average Green performance than it is by a strong Reform performance”. The Greens have already hurt Labour even before any direct gains.

5 polls out today, the SNP on anything from 59 to 66 seats, the Scottish Greens around 15 to 18. A pro independence majority is looking highly likely, but all independence supporters need to get out and vote. The ghouls of Reform UK are waiting around the corner.

So the message from the Reform Party is: “Build concentration camps but not where I live” … is that right? These Farage Camps are basically far-right extremism wrapped up in a very British suburban ’not in my backyard’ hypocrisy and cruelty Contemptible. The party and its voters are loathsome

In 2015 after being reduced to one MP, Labour promised a review and reforms to reconnect with Scotland. That turned out to be doing nothing, doubling down on SNPbad & überUnionism, while waiting for voters to see the supposed error of their ways. Labour deserves to be wiped out in Scotland on 7 May

We've now reached the point where even weighting by 2014 cannot turn a Yes majority into a lead for No. Excluding don't knows, Norstat's unweighted figures round to 60.0%. We need to get the pro-independence vote out on Thursday.

Our new report: Richard Tice signed accounts wrongly claiming £98,000 of tax exemptions A 🧵 with the evidence:
What should have happened: the REIT paid no tax but the Tice companies holding shares in the REIT paid £98k tax on the dividends they received.

What actually happened: none of the companies paid any tax.

Interesting* that BBC Scotland didn't mention in its report on the Sarwar/Offord fight that Offord has a witness who has gone on record to say Offord was telling the truth. No mention either of the numerous media reports about Labour plotting to do a deal with Reform. *Totally predictable

The deputy leader of Reform UK, Richard Tice, owns a property company - Quidnet REIT. From 2020 to 2022 it paid Tice and his trust £600k in dividends. Quidnet should have paid £120k of tax on those dividends. It didn't. A 🧵 with evidence from the company's own filings:
