The 'why' of Independence. Poverty is running rampant across Scotland. Our energy wealth is being taken from us. Our industry is closing. Scotland should be one of the wealthiest countries in the world. It is utterly perverse. https://t.co/ACPDgbIcQR

“Everything has changed. The landscape is unrecognisable.” Podcaster @seanmcdonald01 says voters were told they had to vote “no” to Scottish independence in 2014 to stay in the EU and keep energy prices down, but “the opposite happened” #bbcdn

Thank you to everyone who came along to our sold-out event with Peter Oborne, discussing his new book Complicit - about UK complicity in Israel's genocide in Gaza. We're still adding up all the raffle money but the event has raised over £2000 for Medical Aid for Palestinians!

The Effect of English Colonisation on Scotland (& Northern Ireland too) GDP per capita underlines the English coloniser's crimes: -Ireland (2024): $91,500 per person -Scotland (2024): $47,600 per person -Northern Ireland (2024): $41,500 per person The contrast is astonishing.

What the Scottish people want from their relationship with Europe—EFTA or EU membership, say—is a matter for the people alone, not for the whim of a political party. Freeports are incompatible with EU membership and, Westminster/Holyrood imposed as they are, they are in

Highland A9 corridor resembles barren wasteland. Easy to assume nothing cd ever grow here & 'sporting' landowners have taken over a real burden. Easy but wrong. Scotland’s Missing Forests premieres at REVIVE conference Nov 8. Then https://t.co/SiVOTvwJOZ https://t.co/H5wTz7ksuv

The people of Scotland know this obvious truth. A simple majority in support of independence in an election should mean negotiations for independence should commence. No section 30 required No need to keep begging Westminster The predecessor state should have no role in the

While Israelis are celebrating wildly the release of their hostages, Palestinian families are terrorised that, if they dare celebrate the release of their own, hell will be visited upon them. This is not Peace breaking out. This is Apartheid at its worst!

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.
