They should be asked these two simple questions until they answer. 1) Is the UK a voluntary Union. 2) If it us, what is thus process for leaving. Ask. Keep asking. Don't discuss any other topic until they answer.
Posted along the question- if the UK is a voluntary union, what is the process for Scotland leaving it?

Meanwhile we pay more for electricity here where it’s generated. Yet another reason for #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 “Great Britain wastes £180,000 every hour switching off wind turbines and overpaying gas generators to switch on. That's £691,581,707 so far this year!” wastedwind.energy

Britain wastes millions a day switching off wind turbines. See how much has been wasted today, and in 2025.

By ‘opportunities’ they mean ‘build nuclear stations safely far away from SE England in a country which already produces a surplus of safe electricity.’ F*ck off.

Our SNP Govt does so much to improve the lives of so many Scots. However, I agree with you. The only reason I vote SNP is to support the achievement of #ScottishIndependence Get it done John. Make it the only item on the 2026 manifesto, if not, just go. Our country must be free!

I’m fairly sure that Alex Salmond was leader of the SNP for over twenty years, making HIM, not Harvie, by far the longest serving Scottish party leader.

3) Put it to the Voters. If WM won't permit a referendum, then stand in election on single policy of independence. Of they lose at least we'll know where we are. Losing will mean they lose power too, of course, but if indy is not put to the test what's the point of the party? 2/3

Very pleased to catch a photo of members of The Annual Frorgy in a still spot in the pond, complete with reflections. #Scotland #spring
Close up photo of two frogs in a pond. Left frog is facing away, with only head and eye bulges above the water, and this is reflected perfectly in the still water. Right frog is side on with head and shoulder above the water. Again there is a nice reflection. There’s a clump of frogspawn to the bottom right. New green stems thread across the left and top of the frogs, amongst old, light brown ones.

Full #moon rising #Scotland
Monkey puzzle branches frame the picture, like teeth around a fading blue sky with the bright haze of the full moon rising in the bottom right corner of the branches.Simple photo of full moon filling the frame, in front of a grey blue skyA wee full moon sits in the top third of the photo, in a pale blue sky. The middle section is a russet brown deciduous hillside, bathed in the orange light of setting sun. In front, black silhouettes of mixed trees fill the bottom section.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.
