SNP does pose a threat: to a corrupt, outdated, unjust, unwanted relic of history. The so-called 'constitutional' monarchy. Speaking as an English man, I urge Scots to push, push and push again, until independence is achieved. Same to the people of Cymru. Help us destroy this archane non-democracy.

If and when Your Party formally endorses independence they can ask for Scottish left wing votes. Until then they are asking folk to buy a pig in a poke.

Dr Husam Zomlot, Head of Palestinian Mission to the UK, spoke movingly at the SNP Conference today. Well worth listening to his whole speech 👇

Very rarely is a Palestinian voice heard without bias and interruption on British media.
