All the best to workers in Scunthorpe, but it's telling - with klaxons on - that core national Scottish economic interests like Grangemouth are happily sacrificed by the English government with not a jot of concern. Wake up Scotland. #Independence

This Labour government is attacking Reform for talking about changing the NHS to a different healthcare system.
Just to be clear, Labour is also changing the NHS model- turning the NHS into an enormous cash cow for private companies, mining our public asset to make shareholders richer.

Currently the UK is generating 73.8% of its power from wind.
If we had built Wind Turbines in all the best locations we would currently have about 400% power generation from wind.
Green Energy can power everything easily and cheaply.
That is why Fossil Fuel are so desperate to block it,

One of the annoying myths constantly spread by opponents of Scottish independence (and by the Scottish cringe) is that the 1706 Treaty of Union saved Scotland from bankruptcy. In fact, Scotland was in credit at the time and it was *England* that was considerably in debt.
