I hated racism then.
I hate racism now.

I am a Scot, in Scotland.
It's not perfect, but we have a saying most of us are proud to live by:

'We're #AllJockTamsonsBairns'

We welcome #NewScots.
We are an outward looking nation.
We voted #Remain

We need #ScottishIndependence and a return to the EU.
Starmer's Britain.

Not even subtle.

The Prime Minister’s statement on immigration today will damage our economy, the NHS, social care and our universities. It ignores the need to boost Scotland’s working age population.

This sort of divisive language only plays into Nigel Farage’s hands.

Not in Scotland’s name.

Let’s honour the memory of Hossam Shabat.

Take his courage, his clarity, his determination - and keep speaking up and keep fighting until Palestine is free. 🇵🇸

"Israel’s push to normalise the mass killing of journalists threatens not just Palestinian media workers. If such behaviour in war zones is normalised, then no journalist, no matter what passport they carry, would be safe."

Silence on Israel’s massacres of journalists is dangerous to all
International media’s reluctance to show solidarity with Palestinian journalists could backfire.

A day for reflection as Scotland says goodbye to former first minister, #AlexSalmond.
Every bit of Scottish/Gaelic culture movingly at Alex Salmond’s memorial in St Giles. Our songs, our poems in our Kirk - emotional heartfelt & epic. The Proclaimers Cap in Hand almost unbearably poignant. Tx to organisers & all performers. Message clear. Yes movement must unite

I volunteered on this platform a couple of years ago. It’s brilliant but always needs volunteers if anyone is interested. I’m hoping to get back on board next year.
For anyone in the UK, If you text ‘SHOUT’ to 85258 when you are in a dark place or suicidal, a trained crisis volunteer will text you back. This is great If you find talking on the phone challenging. It’s completely free 24/7. Please Repost, you never know who might need this support

Crowdfunder is LIVE.

The Independence movement needs a clarion call and frankly a good kick up the bottom as we are not getting much by way of leadership and rebuttal from elected members.

Please share and support as best you can.

Thank you in advance.
Funding for Scottish Independence related media
Our aim is to produce high quality pro-Scottish Independence print and social media content which can be shared by all pro-Indy parties.

Crowdfunding & constantly asking indy people for money especially when things arn't going great is no fun plus it takes you away from what you really want to be doing which is concentrating on indy & indy ideas.

Away to sendout begging mailshot for 2024 crowdfunder (58%). Also tell them about BSky.
