Every time unionists make the “once in a generation” BS statement about Indyref, they should immediately be hit with LINE 1 of the BS “VOW” signed by all the unionist leaders: “Power lies with the Scottish people and we believe it is for the Scottish people to decide how Scotland is governed” 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺😎

I just heard Kemi Badenoch say that Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are ruled by parties who want to tear the UK apart but, quote "we won't let them". It's called democracy, Kemi. We voted those parties in because we believe in our right to decide on our own futures. Pure raging!!!!

Of course they go after the vulnerable, sick, elderly, needy. Need to keep those donations coming in from millionaires and billionaires and Corporations so they just will NOT tax the rich.

50%+1 was enough to keep us in this union so 50%+1 is enough to take us out because that's how democracy works. Stop trying to make your own boundaries hen, it's not democratic and it smacks of desperation. #ScottishIndependenceNow

Most of Burnham's promises were for policies to be introduced after the next GE, the national care service, reform of the voting system, closer ties with the EU, all put off until after the next GE - political code for ‘never’. It was a very traditional Labour speech, the jam is always tomorrow.

In Scotland, we provide free personal care for older people without punishing pensioners. Andy Burnham removing the triple lock would simply repeat the mistakes of Keir Starmer. The blame for the UK’s financial mess lies with successive Westminster governments, not pensioners.

The leader of a UK government elected on 32% is telling a Scottish government elected on 36% that a 56% pro-Indy Scottish parliament can't hold a referendum that 68% of Scots want. UK democracy, ladies and gentlemen.

Gus, genuine Scottish and English people don’t accept their country is a region. After 319yrs we’re as passionate about our countries & will never accept the imperial uk is a country. Tell me, what other regions played in the World Cup? The uk fits with empire definition, not a country definition.
