‘The UK’s nuclear arsenal does not keep us safe, it’s merely a ruinously expensive nuclear Viagra to allow British nationalists to pretend that their flaccid former empire is still a global player and not just a mid-sized European power’

UK Labour ministers sat on their hands while the SNP engaged with bus manufacturer Alexanders to prevent Scottish jobs being transferred to England. Now Douglas Alexander and Michel Shanks are trying to take the credit.

Holyrood 26 may be the most important Scottish Parliament election since devolution.
It’s unlikely SNP will win a majority under the voting system - which makes it even more vital to back pro-indy parties
Every indy vote helps keep the Westminster parties out and our future in Scotland’s hands.

Why is Scotland used as a dumping ground by WM for nuclear waste and assorted munitions.....because we aren't a normal independent country and anything nuclear or energy related is reserved to WM. Time we stood up and said no more, it's time for independence and a nuclear free Scotland.
