From Scotland, Independence supporter, hate right wing, facts not fiction, science not religion, truth not lies. Will look and research anything that feels off.

Found a surprising interest in Project Management, now studying in hopes of a career change.
An oath to the Constitution means nothing if it’s not backed by courage when it counts!! An oath ignored is no better than no oath at all, time for those who swore to defend it to find that courage and save America, and the world, from this fascist who’s chipping away at the constitution daily

I only point out above as I believe we need to keep as close to the facts as we can, can’t call out misinformation if we do it ourselves, I try research posts, to try verify and if not right I will point it out, but not in a “your talking S” way, in a look it wasn’t x y z, sorry if that angers

It wasn’t Sturgeon that proposed it, but it was debated and rejected by uk gov, it was called the quadruple lock. It was the first time the uk gov overrode the Sewell convention which would require consent from devolved parliaments, citing it was constitutional so the uk gov had authority to do it

When you see those sitting in the seats of “power” then I’d say aye!! Quite ironic when the few racist/fascists I’ve worked with over the last year all said they support Trump as Kamala will bring ww3, my response, you people are soo thick and just walk away

With a similar population to Scotland too, it’s amazing how many of the smaller countries of the ‘West’ are doing soo well! It’s almost like a sign?

Economic concerns, of which currency was the main 1, with 47% seeing it as a major concern no plan or sufficient answers were given. It’s nothing to do with unionists, it’s to do with lessons learned, as the electorate will ask that question again, and clear & concise answers need to be given
January 7, 2025 at 12:08 AM
100% agree, but if one of the big questions, like 2014, is currency, then you need to make it clear to people now what will happen. Ie ensure people understand that we don’t need England’s permission to use the £ through the transition, and what could be the end game plan for Scottish currency.
January 6, 2025 at 11:59 PM
Which is fair enough, but people will need to have a solid understanding of what the currency plan is before the vote. Ie we will use £ until x yrs, during that period a transition to a Scottish pound will take place and this is how we will do that. Etc. At least it shows the electorate it’s planned
January 6, 2025 at 11:56 PM
Yep it is simple, our own currency, now from the same hymn sheet, I’m sure that’s exactly what the Scottish Currency Group are working on now, if they have that sheet then we should all work off that.

There are key conversations from the 2014 which is guaranteed to happen again, currency being one of the main ones, it doesn’t matter what happens in 1 week or 10yrs in respect to the currency argument, an Indy country will have to have a plan in place, earlier that conversation had the better!
January 6, 2025 at 11:50 PM
No frustration here boss, there doesn’t have to be pay for anything, the Indy supporters just need to all be singing from the same sheet, and speaking to the soft No’s, not saying a full out campaign on it, but if you lay the foundations now then the conversation when it comes is easier.
January 6, 2025 at 11:47 PM
This is when we should be drip feeding the soft no’s what will happen when Indy happens, we can’t leave it until we know when there’s going to be an Indy vote, we need the info out now against all the arguments that were used in 2014, because they will use them again, one trick ponies!!
January 6, 2025 at 11:31 PM
I’m with the new currency, just use the Scottish pound now, it’s not accepted in majority places in England now, seen as foreign except in Scotland. In seriousness though like Iona says we need to get this all butted up and everyone of same sheet, don’t want this to be an issue again on next vote
