Norway’s Sovereign Wealth Fund stands at a whopping $2 Trillion because they invested in their future.

We could’ve been in a similar position, but UK Govs squandered our oil wealth.

Westminster never works for Scotland, it’s time for independence. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Same with Chapelcross… closed 20+ years ago, decontamination may be finished in 2095!
PS date of decontamination keeps getting further away.
Also worth noting was operational and only 10 miles from Lockerbie air disaster. Who wants targets or potential nuclear disasters on their doorsteps?

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.

They’d much rather children emulate their own illustrious leader whilst at school. So they should all trundle round singing Hitler youth songs, just like Nige did

💷 PFI buried the NHS in billions of debt 💸

Now it’s being rebranded + repackaged as a “new solution.”
But let’s not be fooled — a bad deal with a new name is still a bad deal.
