Seen in this context, the fallacious smear about the staffer to SNP MSP supposedly bugging the offices of 3 female MSPs was a lie which found its way onto front page headlines of the “ Scottish” media. “ No evidence”said the presiding officer, conveniently on page 5 of the National! Squirrel!

I fully intended to vote SNP1/Scottish Greens2 anyway for a strong Indy presence, but with the amount of free and bbc-sponsored publicity Reform is going to get by GE26 it has *double* value. It's the best way to keep repellent Reform out.

Lots of evidence that BBC Scotland reporting of Nicola Sturgeon when First Minister, was not impartial. Not only was it anti-SNP Scottish Govt & anti-Scotland, it was also classist & misogynistic. A smart working class woman who ran evidence-based effective govt was attacked relentlessly by BBCScot.

Far from cutting energy bills as they promised, the Labour government is hiking the bills of Scots to pay for nuclear plants in England.
In Scotland, we have vast renewable resources - and with the powers of independence, we can use them to lower bills.
