Born in the ’80s, forged in the fire of VHS and attitude, Die Hard is gospel, and yes, it’s a Christmas movie 🎄.
Still dreaming of Scotland unshackled, where tartan isn’t just tradition, it’s a revolution wrapped in swagger🏴🏴

We are shite, the worst team ever.
How JT can remain the manager and given another window is beyond belief. The team has no idea what they're doing and that's down to the manager, nobody else.

In the last election Stephen Flynn was in a TV debate for the SNP and made the clear moral and financial case for immigration. The reason Labour won't do that is because they're repulsive, not incompetent.

Scotland needs to leave the UK immediately, apply the day after to rejoin the EU, completely reform the financial sector and the corporate rule book on issues such as takeovers etc.. If we don't do this England will totally destroy Scotland's economy. I've had enough.. have you?

To save an English oil refinery so that it can replace a Scottish oil refinery to refine oil almost entirely from Scottish waters, the Scottish taxpayer must also contribute around £100m

Still voting Labour and calling yourself left-wing? You’re either ignorant or spineless. The party sold out to capital, warmongers, and the same parasites as the Tories. You’re not a progressive — you’re a prop. Own your slide right or get out of the way. Change won’t come from cowards.
If you would still vote Labour today then you have to redefine your political position as rightwing. You cannot support this party and dare call yourself someone on the left. Such a claim is laughable. Have the courage and intelligence to own what you believe in

Remember, their whole mantra was 'change'. But this? This is exactly what the Tories would do.
This 83-year-old priest has just been arrested for holding a sign which read:
“I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”
According to Starmer’s new law, this puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist, with a prison sentence of up to 14 years.

Brexit has cost the UK £140bn - £2000 per person - and sent prices skyrocketing.
Farage is the cause of the cost of living crisis, not the solution.
Will he apologise to Scots for the damage he’s caused tomorrow - or will he keep avoiding the obvious?

Labour are planning to nationalise British Steel - to save the Scunthorpe plant from closing down.
Why didn't Labour do the same when Scotland's last oil refinery announced it was closing down?
Scottish jobs are an afterthought for Labour.

Trump- I can't drive,I can't play golf (though I’ll cheat like hell trying).I can run businesses straight into the ground. My presidency? A masterclass in how not to do democracy. And as for my fake tan? Let’s just say if Oompa Loompas had a lawsuit pending, I’d settle.

Spot on with this, far too many times, we've looked at others for scapegoats. Our defenders are shite, end of. The whole backline needs replaced and it should start by spending money in January.

Yet again we've got a Scottish budget full of measures designed to mitigate Westminster policies. Instead of constantly having to protect Scots from Westminster decisions we should aim for a Scotland that protects itself forever from Westminster decisions by removing itself from Westminster rule.
