Between now and the May26 Scottish general election we can expect much more of this sort of thing from Westminster. They'll claim positive Scottish policies as Westminster's work, and blame Holyrood and the SNP for their own failures, such as the closure of Grangemouth.

Seems that, especially for younger voters, Westminster's infamous Powergrab of Scotland's devolved powers is either forgotten or unknown. Perhaps this brief summary of the history may prove useful, though since this was designed the overruling of Holyrood by Westminster has got MUCH worse.
A simple history of Scottish devolved powers and how Westminster has systematically stripped them from Scotland even though 74% of voters voted for them.

Even though the most practical way to cooperate and serve the national interest would be to return to freedom of movement, customs union, and single market. Total nonsense.
Starmer: "There will be no return to freedom of movement, no return to the customs union and no return to the single market. Instead we will find practical, agile ways to cooperate which serve the national interest.”

We should be extremely concerned about this in the run up to Holyrood '26. As uncomfortable a thought as it is there is a very good chance that unionist voters will see this mob winning seats. We don't need more politicians working against Scotland.

There are two kinds of opponents to Scottish independence: Those who oppose it because of a strong, nostalgic attachment to what 'Great Britain' once was. All the rest is just 'The Cringe'.
Poster pointing out that Scotland is a rich, resource-wealth country that could well afford become independent again. If it wasn't why are England's 533 MPs not immediately demanding the dissolving of the Union?

Can we just be clear that if you want to be here and enjoy the positives that others in the rest of the UK don't have, then don't EVER vote for English based unionist parties at elections. They have and will continue to strip Scotland of devolved powers and assets. Okay dokay 👍

Yes, before the watching British nationalists get giddy (waves) very aware of who wrote those lines & his apparent thoughts on Scottish independence. It will happen & the sooner the better. Everything until then is just damaging delay.

Look at the results in recent by-elections & be vigilant. There are people in Scotland who feel that voting Reform is the solution to whatever grievance they have. Point is - this is what happens when the majority of parties in Holyrood are 'British' (ie English).

BBC Scotland has never in its history, been as conspiratorially biased in favour of the Union as it is now. It is worse now than in the run up to the 2014 referendum. It now no more than a dedicated and fully committed Unionist propaganda channel. (Repost if you agree.)
