Scotland ‘one of safest places in world’, say BBC — Scottish National Party
The evidence on justice is in, the results are clear, and the conclusion is inescapable: Scotland makes better decisions when Scotland decides for itself.

Ireland is set to increase its state pension by €10 a week, taking annual payments to the equivalent of £13,654.98 🇮🇪 The SNP say the move is a 'wake-up call' and shows what's possible when independent countries have full control over their own finances and welfare system 👇

As a Scot, from the country in the UK which voted Remain but was dragged out anyway, A nation whose people have voted repeatedly for a 2nd independence referendum because Brexit exposed the lack of fairness and lack of democracy within the existing constitutional framework This is all infuriating.

The UK's state pension is not generous compared to others in Europe. Older people relying on the state pension have to get by on barely over £1000 a month. Andy Burnham’s plans to end the triple lock are unacceptable, morally wrong and the SNP will stand against them.

Basically Labour's position is that until English voters support #ScottishIndependence we're stuck in this 'voluntary' Union. Watch as the inconsistency of EU re-engagement 10 yrs after Brexit & not accepting Scots have a right to hold another Referendum after 14 yrs plagues Burnham's premiership.
