Scotland is a separate nation with its own set of laws and policies, to fail to make that clear is to essentially treat it as the same as England, is to diminish its status. I`m pretty sure if we covered the whole landmass in the Saltire and spoke of it as Scotland we would soon be put right.

Meanwhile, Scotland is the member who has to hand over their pay packets to the 'head' of the house, get's half back to spend on themselves, has to pay interest in the debt when the head overspends, and isn't allowed to move out to another home that suits them better.
Britons are that family – and the giant hole in the roof is Brexit.

Dr David Nabarro, the World Health Organisation’s special envoy for Covid-19, told the BBC: “Comparing Scotland with other parts of Europe, other parts of the world, I’d say you’re doing good because you are tackling it carefully and logically.”
Thanks to TalkingUpScotland for this...
On the back of the covid report we continue to have attacks on Nicola Surgeon's handling of events for the Scottish public.

These attacks are puerile & pathetic, I know because I was there!

As well as this, an Independent Scotland will be one of the Richest Countries in Europe.

Only a fool doesn't want Scottish Independence.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Note how the BBC bulletins said 23000 died unnecessarily, implying that was UK wide fault. Sky reported it correctly as England only.

Boy in playground steals your bag of sweets, eats all but one before returning the packet. When you don’t take your next sweet packet to school, choosing to eat them at home instead, boy throws tantrum and calls you selfish for not wanting to ‘share’.

BBC Scotland #GMS just told listeners that ‘no other country had sub-state governments implementing different health policies during Covid’. This is yet another falsehood. In USA, Canada, & Australia, in France & Germany & many other states, regional govts had powers to have very different responses
