John Swinney democratically elected First Minister says invite should be scrapped. He wasn't even consulted before Keir Starmer invited him to visit the country that he is elected to lead. Devolution is just window dressing when Labour are not in charge of it.

Unhinged felon must not be honoured. 34 felony convictions in New York alone. Dodged prison because his billionaire pals helped him win election.

This was Glasgow in the 70s under labour and we had oil in the North Sea, nothing much changed in the preceding 30 years as all the oil revenues went South to pay for Londons finance district, cross rail, M25 and City Airport, we were left with the ten worst slum areas in the Uk, now we have none.

It's very obvious now that the only capital investments Westminster will make in Scotland are those which boost the extraction of Scottish resources. It's almost as though they expect us to become independent & are trying to squeeze as much out of us as they can before we leave.

Scottish government ministers have a wage rise freeze dating back to 2008. A minister should be paid £99,516pa but actually receives £81,449pa
voluntarily paying the difference back into public finances. I wonder why we hear so little about this and whether this would ever happen at Westminster?
