In truth, it’s not the hope that kills you. It’s having nothing left to hope for. The men’s team have done their bit. Time for the rest of us to get back out there.

Lesley Riddoch: Scotland’s team have given us much-needed hope – now it’s our turn

How i wish I kept the receipts of all the unionist parties giving nicola stick when she tried to bring In measures before Downing Street okayed them. The times they intimated dictatorial behaviour when just trying to keep us all safer. The way they politicised the briefings and had them cancelled.

Anyone in Scotland who is thinking of voting Labour, is completely bonkers.
As they've gone beyond Tory and they're now mimicking Reform UK, Scottish Independence isn't just sensible, it's ESSENTIAL!

If 🏴 was already independent, and WM comes along with the offer of joining in a Union, as long as we pay all our revenues to them, we pay them taxes, and we give up the rights to vast areas of our land, and all our waters.
Would we do it?🤷♂️
Like HELL we would, so why accept it?

Barely mentioned but that now notorious Trump Panorama *wasn’t made by the BBC*
It was an indie production (as so much is)
Even if was BBC, head of news or DG would wouldn’t have been involved in edits
