To folk elsewhere in the so-called “Union”: forget Reeves.

In Scotland we have the “game changing” Scottish Child Payment and the iniquitous 2CC will be binned here from March 2026.

If you really care about reducing child poverty where you are, and want to see what’s working, look to Scotland.

Ah yes, the “Union” — where Scotland generously donates almost all the oil, gas, water, fish, and power… and London, in its infinite generosity, lets us keep the crumbs. Truly, what would we do without them?

Hey, Grauniad. I think the real trick is Westminster refusing to devolve most powerful economic powers to Scotland, then laughing & glosting when Holyrood is hamstrung to make necessary changes. Even so, it does better than WM in so many areas, not least NHS Scotland.

“Despite the prediction of MP Michael Shanks – the ashtray of Scottish politics – over the weekend that Anas Sarwar will be the next first minister, all the polling evidence consistently suggests that the most likely outcome will be a Scottish Parliament with an SNP and Scottish Greens majority.”
Labour lost control of Scotland a decade and a half ago and no-one expects Starmer to be the leader who restores Scotland’s faith in the party, writes Paul Kavanagh ✍️

It cannot be underestimated the upcoming level to which Scotland is going to find ourselves and our families future chances under attack from the British Establishment.
Will you stand up for Scotland and our families chances at a fairer stronger future, or will you sell us all out?

Anyone who believes the SNP will get a fair contest next year is deluded.

Hard to understand when we think of the way Scots and Scotland are treated by Westmonster!!!

How the so-called “union” works.

As expected Murrell will be back in court ahead of the Holyrood election. All perfectly timed in another attempt to torpedo the SNP.

Meanwhile Gove, Hancock, Johnson and their “VIP lane” chums remain free of any sanction after plundering tens of Covid millions.

The arrest of Greta Thunberg for peacefully opposing genocide and supporting those on hunger strike is wrongful and disturbing.

This is yet another shocking example of the UK’s broad terrorism laws being used to target those exercising their right to freedom of expression and assembly rights.

The easiest way to get rid of the Lords is not to petition or campaign to close down the House of Lords, That will never happen. No the best way is to vote for independence, That is the only way we will know that they could not interfere in decisions relating to Scotland.

Another irrelevant 💩 “poll” of English voters - masquerading as one for the UK.

YouGov evidently regards England as the UK and vice versa - but that’s par for the course.
Most voters say 2025 was a bad year for the UK...

Reform UK: 83% bad
Con: 77%
Green: 60%
Labour: 55%
Lib Dem: 54%

...and many expect 2026 to be bad too

Reform UK: 79% bad
Con: 67%
Green: 45%
Lib Dem: 40%
Labour: 37% (16% good, 33% average)

#GretaThunberg
Apparently #Starmer was a Human Rights lawyer...
“I don’t need to express my utter disgust for the UK government.” Greta Thunberg condemned Britain’s “criminalization of empathy” at a London protest for hunger-striking prisoners, warning the state is letting political prisoners die and standing on the wrong side of history.
