Everyone at Independence Live is shocked by the news of the passing of Pete Scally who was wonderful musician and entertainer. We have covered Pete many times at indy events. Our condolences and love to the family. He will be sadly missed. RIP Pete.

In 2024 alone Scotland’s surplus electricity trade was worth between £2 and £3bn talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/12/18/i...

We move in to our new studio in January and still have a bit of work to do to get it ready, but we can't think of a better location for a studio for Scotland's independent broadcaster? We do need to raise about £30K, so please donate whatever you can afford. www.broadcastingscotland.scot/donate/

Absolutely horrendous. Welcome to the UK.

We could have found our new studio space, but we will need to get close to our £30k target. With luck and your support we could be in by mid January and up and running again soon after that. Please donate whatever you can afford. Thank you. www.broadcastingscotland.scot/donate/

Reform UK is about to buy its way into the Scottish Parliament thanks to the cash it’s given by a small number of extremely rich donors, writes Paul Kavanagh ✍️ 🔗 www.thenational.scot/politi...

What's in a name? The SNP and nationalism. How the anti-independence parties conflate independentism and nationalism for political advantage weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/15/w...

Blast from the past with this catchy wee song youtu.be/qO6sPtGFG3s?...

Scotland produces a THIRD of all of The UK's Food and Drink Exports. There's only a tiny 8% of the entire UK Population, in Scotland. We make other Countries in the UK look like their laughably inept. That's why no MP wants English Independence! Why on EARTH is Scotland not ALREADY Independent?

My latest blog piece, Westminster and Scotland's energy - Fool me once... Scotland must not allow Westminster to squander its vast renewable energy resources the way Scotland's oil and gas were squandered by Westminster. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/12/08/w...

In case you're in any doubt of the limits that the Scottish NHS has imposed on it. He's now the Labour Health Secretary- being truthful for a change. The Scottish NHS is THE best preforming NHS in the UK DESPITE the consequences of Westminster it'd be even better with #ScottishIndependence 💙

Public school boy, multi-millionaire Farage, & his party backed by the super-rich yet posing as "anti-establishment" are the biggest con trick in British political history, if he gets into No 10 the public anger & fury will eclipse that experienced by that other political con artist Starmer.

As soon as Westminster got it’s claws in they suppressed Scottish culture and language. #ScottishIndependence

If only we were like the Republic of Ireland we would not be in this ridiculous position. #ScottishIndependence All the best to the two Davies.

Still can’t stop watching it… youtube.com/shorts/g4ws5...

A major protest has been held outside the offices of Grand Theft Auto developers Rockstar Games in Edinburgh, after more than 30 staff were allegedly sacked for trade union activity.

Violent Crime in Scotland is at an all-time low. It's been falling for decades. Lurid reports, in the trashy UK tabloids, will try to suggest, it's out of control. Britain's a war zone. In Scotland, it's at its lowest, since Records began. Read facts, not alarmist, London Newspaper trash.

Hopefully back next week with TNT Show.

A UK Government minister blocked a Scottish deposit return scheme (DRS) in order to give the SNP a 'black eye', a court has been told

❌ End the Union's biggest economic lie. GERS doesn’t show what independence would look like - it shows the cost of staying in the Union. ✅ Our proposal, i-GERS, will demonstrate the brighter future independence brings: www.believeinscotland.org/i_gers_the_r...

It seems remarkable, yet true, that so many people in Scotland are apparently still ignorant of the huge stripping of Scottish devolved powers by Westminster's Powergrab in 2018. Where have you *been*?

The brutality. The corruption. The lies. Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson. Watch.

You know the real figure is much higher, when the Express is showing 58% yes. After all they are a bastion of support for #ScottishIndependence 🤪

Just another lie to the people of Scotland 👇 Michael Shanks denies the promise of 1000 jobs for GB Energy Aberdeen headquarters despite Keir Starmer pledging to do so. www.thenational.scot/news/2555454...

Economic growth for the UK is to be powered by… wait for it… English pubs.

Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair and Enoch Powell are the ghosts haunting Late Britain open.substack.com/pub/fiftysix...

This doesn't surprise me at all. I was an apprentice and machinist there from 1969 to 1980 and was constantly hearing of accidents and leaks happening. I told my wife some of the stuff that happened then, she says it is a wonder I don't glow in the dark.

Don’t fancy being one of those coos. “Dounreay was opened on the north Caithness coast almost 70 years ago and was the UK's centre of fast reactor research and development until 1994. Hundreds of Scottish workers are now involved in its decommissioning.”

It’s Sunday. You need a rage break. Then this bawbag comes up on the National.

Meanwhile the Brexit (-5%GDP) supporting, Scottish industry destroying & resources stealing English political class will now run up against their own protesters who they can’t ignore. Scotland doesn’t matter. Never did. Never will. #ScottishIndependence.

With no codified constitution the UK relies on relatively sane people in power to retain a functioning democracy. #ScottishIndependence

'Some argue climate change will lead to mass displacement towards the West. But this is contestable. The UK relies on just-in-time food supply lines wide open to environmental shocks. We have done next to nothing in relation to adaptation.' Jonathon Shafi. via The National archive.is/e3Txn

The latest Norstat poll for the Times shows a sustained lead for Yes in #Indyref2 voting intention. Even with the published 2014 vote weighting Yes has a 6 point lead. But if we reweight based on current (rather than fantasy) demographics, Yes has a 13 point lead.

Errr what. It’s like living in a parallel universe. Soul doesn’t need fixing and England isn’t Britain. Starmer will lose and Farage our new authoritarian racist UK King is coming.

There are many alarming things about Starmer's ID plan, he's creating instruments of state surveillance which he'll hand over to the far right after the next general election. If there's a pro indy majority in Holyrood after 2026, ScotGov needs to hold an indyref & dare Starmer to stop them.

Here, we have Singapore, a country much smaller than Scotland and with far less natural resources. Singapore is one of the world's most successful countries. It's people flourished after going their own way. And of course, there was fear-mongering around Singapore's prospects back in the day, too.
