Brilliant Spreadsheet John. 👏👏Shows exactly how D'Hondt PR algorithm works.

Best strategy for May 7th is -

SNP - Constituency candidate

Scottish Greens - Regional List vote

The goal is to eliminate as many Unionist MSPs, especially the rising threat of ReformUK in Scotland.

And there's still morons who say Scotland pays more, because it's further away.

This is one of those irrefutable facts that shows social progress in Scotland since SNP came to power. There is no counter argument.
When @theSNP took power 18 years ago, the top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, were ALL in Scotland.

Today,
The top 20 most deprived areas of the UK, are ALL in England.

I’ll take that as a positive governance of Scotland.

It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

BBC put Labour first this morning to suggest a two-tier NHS in Scotland which this simple map and that only 4% were done privately completely ridicule

An important thread showing the anti-Scotland bias of BBC Scotland.
MSM Monitor
Something very suspicious went on on Friday, January 23rd at BBC Scotland with its coverage of the Hospital Inquiry final submissions.

At 12:00 on Lunchtime Live Lorna Gordon summarises KC Fred Mackintosh's comments exonerating the Scottish Govt. This is contained in news bulletins.

We see it in Fife. Majority SNP but the Labour Party in Scotland would rather go in coalition with the Tories and LibDems than support SNP calls to buy back empty houses or build truly affordable housing! Yet still they vote Labour not realising that it’s Labour in Name Only. Lino!

If you're in the North East of Scotland intending to vote SNP 1&2 in HR26 remember what happened in 2021
SNP and CON voted 1&2...
Constituencies: SNP 9, CON 1
List: SNP 0, CON 4
HR26: vote SNP 1 and Scottish Greens 2 for an Indy majority and to keep Deform UK off the List

If we work together, we can change the optics and that changes the independence narrative. No longer an evenly split Indy/unionist Scottish Parliament but a clear Indy majority and the unionists very much a minority split into 5. Official opposition also Indy. Reform in 5th place.

Loved Danish foreign minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen on the BBC World Service thanking The UK for its support over Greenland "particularly given its weakened world status going it alone on trade". Oof!

Just like Fife Council- Lab/Con/LibDem coalition (SNP has maj of seats). Held onto £30m unspent. They were urged by SNP councillors to use this for repairs, building or buy back of empty houses so that the homeless could have homes- but they’d rather get moan about insufficient funding!

Labour did so well the last time round because the SNP couldn't get their vote out! This is different, in May, this is a Vote for Scotland, do your duty and protect everything we currently benefit & keep the Independence dream alive!

Vote SNP 1, Greens 2 in May, it's the only choice!

Scottish independence explained in depth. Not as the media portray. Not even as politicians suggest. Here is a proper in-depth academic analysis of the realities of independence.

🚨BREAKING: Parliament will debate the petition Calling for a FULL public inquiry into a Russian influence.

🇬🇧 Unlike other parties who were infiltrated or hid. We campaigned for 5 years on this and it’s clear to us Russia interfered in the Brexit campaign. Do you agree?

Time to Exit Brexit.

US representatives seem amazed at the conversations with indigenous Greenlanders about cultural ownership of land. But the same US seem very deaf to their own indigenous culture. They’re now looking very amateur and inexperienced as diplomats. #Denmark #Greenland #Trump #USA

Sounds like the US has had their “ass handed to them”, diplomatically speaking, judging by how many times Senator Coons is using the word ‘respectfully’. #Denmark #Greenland #Trump #USA
