One thing has become very clear the British have decided to increase their efforts to destabilise @TheSNP the only party capable of delivering independence. Hence I will not be taking part in any discussions or promoting any event which helps the British.

If you are interested in politics & follow the fortunes of political parties, I think you will agree that Labour is finished in Wales: https://t.co/uwhG4q8XLM I suggest the same logic applies in Scotland. Starmer has applied the coup de grace for Labour in Wales & Scotland.

Plaid Cymru's Lindsay Whittle tells Sky's @JonCraig that the Welsh Labour party is 'dead' after winning a Senedd by-election in Caerphilly, a seat that Labour had won every year since its creation in 1999. 🔗 https://t.co/Mbmro8Mw7v đŸ“ș Sky 501 and YouTube

I didn't expect it or forecast it, but there is no doubt the Caerphilly election has blown the UK union to pieces: https://t.co/popmbLMDjq When Scotland becomes independent I will be sending @Plaid_Cymru & Lindsay Whittle a bottle of Scotland's finest Scotch.

I know he is a Tory but I have time for Andy Maciver: https://t.co/QmQd36YBWH He is a very astute political observer, but I respectfully suggest there will be no reimaging of the UK. The union is dissolving.

Just one reason why Scots need independence: https://t.co/MGsXWFfkhT 1. The owner of Carbisdale Castle was born in Iraq. 2. The owner offers sanctuary to a scandalised member of a foreign family who is accused of the most heinous sexual crime of paedophilia. 3. Scots have no say!

Actually shouting at the radio. BBC Scotland has pundit on describing the Welsh as Brits, suggesting migration was a big issue at Caerphilly when all evidence is folk were scunnered with Labour's anti-migrant stance and NO-ONE asks if result suggests Welsh want independence.
