SNP Both Votes, over 50%+ in Both, is our Indy Majority Mandate, regardless of seats.

I accidentally got the wrong size ball to replace Molly’s favourite one. 🤨 Luckily she doesn’t seem to mind.

A nonprofit organization filed suit against the Trump administration on Monday, alleging its decision to stop posting budget documents in late March violates federal law. ncnewsline.com/2025/04/15/r... #ncpol

SO retired at start of year. Yesterday, I needed a ceiling shade cleaned I couldn’t reach and when I asked later if it had been done…it had. I’m not used to this things getting done when I ask and not have to spend 3 weeks ‘reminding’.

Keir was bang on with this one.

McCrone: The scandal few Scots have heard of.

All 22 Labour MSPs abstained and all 31 Tories voted against it Well done to our SNP Government and the Green's and Lib Dems for passing this landmark budget 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 All Liebour and Tory MSPs preferred keeping kids in poverty and freezing pensoniors 👇🏻

Reform with 5 MP's gets more TV and Newspaper coverage than the Greens, SNP, Independents and Lib Dems combined. This is because Reform is owned by the billionaires who own the Media.

During the election, Labour promised to cut energy bills by £300. Instead, they’ve increased them - and bills are rising again by 6.4% in April. Scotland is an energy-rich nation and the fact we’re paying sky-high prices is Westminster failure in action. We deserve better.

Labour refused to vote for this.

I’ve had a tough few days with dogs. Luckily there is always a win around the corner. And what a win it was as. From the streets of Thailand to her very first snow this morning in Germany 🇩🇪 Incredible scenes for Bowie (1/6) 🧵

"[For the Right], D.E.I...is the mere presence of a woman or nonwhite person or disabled or transgender person in any high-skilled, high-status position. And their alternative isn’t some heretofore unknown standard of merit; it is the reintroduction of something like segregation." (gift link)

He's Christianing wrong.

Scotland houses America's nuclear weapons without our consent. Perhaps Plymouth is a better home for them?

My piece for today's @scotnational.bsky.social Anas Sarwar has decided that the anti-independence parties have already won the 2026 Holyrood elections www.thenational.scot/politics/249...

Northern Ireland voters lean towards a united Ireland www.thenational.scot/news/2495806...

The separatist thing I never got it, now it is even weaker.

Macron corrects Trump after he claims "Europe is loaning the money to Ukraine. They get their money back."

Did Winston Churchill (or Chamberlain) piss about and delay, asking Rachel Reeves how many libraries she could close, how many disabled people she could impoverish, before deciding to re-arm? Dammit @KeirStarmer, you can borrow, you can print more money. Just do it @richardjmurphy.bsky.social

Note Israel also voted against this. I have to break it to my Ukrainian friends. Just because Israel’s enemy Iran is your enemy, it doesn’t make Israel your friend

🚨🚨 This is bloody fucking insane. I do generally desist using foul language but the spineless, shameless traitors of the Trump administration deserves a special place in hell for this action. US is no longer a supporter but (I thought I was never going this) rather a threat to the global order. 👇

All thanks to the @thesnp.bsky.social and their management of Scotland despite Westminster parasites terrible of funding deal for Scotland! The SNP has to find the money from other resources thanks to them! It's time for Scotland and...

They won't get another penny from me until they distance themselves from a man who is gappy to starve children in the UK and genocide supporter of children in Gaza.

I get the distinct impression that there's still a lot of arrogance from Labour in Scotland - that The SNP keeps them from what is rightfully theirs.

Still bemused at @savechildrenSCO rep tweeting enthusiastic praise from Labour conference praising proven serial liar Sarwar for ‘promising’ to end child poverty & doing PR photos with Labour politicians. The party currently deliberately starving kids is the problem not the solution.

More good news. And let’s not forget broadband provision is a responsibility of the UKG. But ScotGov had to step in years ago to provide it themselves because UKG wouldn’t. More mitigation for UKG betrayals & reneging on their responsibilities.

The right wing defund public institutions, then demonize them for the problems they themselves created. The end goal is privatization of everything, because it will be more profitable for them, and worse for the rest of us. Every time, every country.

Another day, another headline you would never have expected to see under a Labour government. Ho hum. www.lbc.co.uk/news/uk/bene...

“Free gear Keir” will be going to Washington next week to talk to the #OrangeFelon He seems to have been practicing his negotiating skills….

And Labour still have the gall to stand candidates in Glasgow and ask for your votes. When their ruinous equal pay denial and PFI scheme caused a financial black hole for SNP to fix. Don’t reward them for the damage they did - and are still doing - to our city.

It's far worse than you say. It's not just a continuation of the failed trickle down economics, Reeves is actively undoing the regulations that keep us safe. Next up, the Robert Maxwell tribute bill to rob our pensions.

The ones who sold up because of Covid and with the high prices in England, decamped to Scotland, where they outprice and outnumber locals, then vote against progressive policies.

As I have said before, the problem are with the English white settlers who settle on the islands and don’t accept that the weather impacts ferries

A ban is certainly long overdue in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Pensions death tax will be a ‘slow-motion car crash’, Reeves warned - for those who had public sector pensions & when you die your partner gets half… they’re going to be taxed at 40%. Why are the Labour Party going after pensioners instead of ultra wealthy people? Reeves…focussing on the vulnerable

He seems nice.

Eat plants! 🌱🌱

I’d actually forgotten this. Suspect others may have too. Can as many people as possible please share this so we never forget?

And here it is, my Joker moment. I am insane now.

Don't ever forget, donaldTrump gave them all pardon. 😡 😡 100% 👇🏾

Fyi when Labour says "clean energy" they mean new nuclear power stations.
