Dounreay nuclear power station last produced electricity 30+ years ago, yet decontamination is expected to last until the 2070s and cost £8Bn, with full decontamination of the site estimated to take more than 300 years. Now Westminster wants to build *more* nuclear power stations in Scotland.

Remember when they insisted that Starmer's 'island of strangers' speech was a mis-step or just misunderstood? They were wrong.

Am I the only one disgusted by Starmer's inhumanity to those simply trying to escape the horrors they were forced to endure by accident of birth?

Labour immigration policy alone would convince me we need independence.

But we can't afford independence...
Aye right Westminster keeps 92% of Scotland's oil and gas revenue now, but during the Thatcher years it was 100%... Remember when the only investment in Scotland came from the EEC (EU) and Scottish industry was getting sold down the river along with our utilities

The D'hont formula is designed to keep Yoonies in power in HR, as can be seen from NE Scotland region
10 constituencies currently 9 SNP 1 CON
7 List currently 0 SNP, 4 CON
This is because both SNP and CON voted 1&2
[SNP 2/10]=0 SNP List
[CON 2/1]=4 CON List
SNP 1, SGP 2 is a no brainer

After allowing Scotland's national grid to falter due to lack of investment since the 1960's; they suddenly want to spend £billions to export our green energy to... Guess where? And it's not in the EU🤔🥴🤬😡
This is *not* because they want to improve infrastructure for Scotland's benefit, but to make it even easier to send Scotland's abundant and cheap renewable power to the south of England. Don't expect it to mean fairer prices in Scotland. It won't.
