If England decided it wanted to hold a vote on becoming independent, do you think it would have to ask Scotland’s permission first? This design and many, many more to download for sharing from my indyposterboy site. indyposterboy.scot/sauce-for-th...

I have to say that, having lived through the experience of the 2014 independence referendum, Labour supporters *sudden* recognition of how biased the media is is bitterly hilarious. #Scotland #IndependenceIsNormal #ScotlandsRightToChoose

'Once in a generation opportunity' was a throwaway line, not a guarantee. Opponents demand it must be conformed to whilst refusing to keep the actual promises they made to win the referendum.

Did you know that Scotland has 1 district nurse per 1595 people, whilst England has only 1 district nurse per *7700*?

Did you know that since the SNP scrapped hospital parking charges in 2008 that it’s saved hospital staff, patients and visitors over *£90million*?

Shanks is supposed to be a Labour minister and MP that represents Scotland, yet he has nothing good to say about us. Either makes false claims about achievements ie Labour responsible for scotgov achievements or he’s bashing Scotland. UK Labour doesn’t support 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 www.thenational.scot/news/2564154...

So much for Starmer's promised reset in relations. He's refused to meet our First Minister to discuss the upcoming budget, and Scotland's priorities. Voters in Scotland decide our Government... but voters in England decide its budget.

Every time I hear about Jackie Baillie of Labour's Scottish branch office attacking Scotland's health services, I recall the time she and Sarah Boyack were given free beer by Peroni for helping to block life-saving minimum pricing for years. How many more lives could have been saved?

If the grouse shooting industry are to be believed, Susie probably stamped her own chicks to death before turning the gun on herself. Oh well. By a happy coincidence, less hen harriers means more red grouse for the toffs to shoot. @raptorpersuk.bsky.social raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/11/14/h...

There are so many examples, but I still find it amazing that the BBC in Scotland - or any British media, for that matter - go out of their way 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 to make these comparisons between Scotland and England. Well done 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗡𝗣 👏

In the year to 2023, BBC Scotland issued more error corrections than all of the broadcaster’s other UK regional and national offices combined,overwhelmingly as a result of inaccurate criticism of the Scottish Government.' @weegingerdug.bsky.social, via The National archive.is/rbSc6

We have reached the beyond chaos stage now. They've been playing a cynical and dangerous game with people's finances and they don't even know if they've u-turned on their u-turn. What an absolute mess and any credibility they might still possess shredded. news.sky.com/story/starme...

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. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Anas has gone all bashful again. But then no one in the Westminster Labour party cares about his opinion on anything. He's a nepo-baby irrelevance who will be deposed after next May's Holyrood election. www.thenational.scot/news/2561710...

My latest blog article No, independence supporters’ well documented compaints about BBC bias on the Scottish constitutional question are nothing like Trump's attacks on freedom of the press. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/11/12/n...

Why does so much of the media pursue a 'Scotland is shit' reporting strategy? Because they support the Union and will do all they can to undermine your confidence in Scotland's ability to control its own destiny. It's a kind of bullying. Do you want to stay in a relationship with a bully?

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*?

But why are we surprised? The UK has form on scottish fishing.

🧵The UK government are trying to block a £1.5billion renewables investment project at Ardersier in Scotland on national security grounds, as could give China “enormous” power over Scotland and UK’s electricity grid, posing “an enormous threat”. This is rank… www.thenational.scot/news/2555983...

Devolution: Westminster claiming credit for the things that Holyrood controls and does well, whilst blaming them for the things that Westminster controls and does badly.

Did you know that despite the impacts of covid and Westminster’s austerity, NHS Scotland still outperforms NHS England and NHS Wales on A&E waiting times, cancer mortality, number of GPs per person, and overall patient satisfaction? indyposterboy.scot/best-nhs/

Despite generating the cheapest electricity in Europe, Scotland's electricity bills are set to rise today along with the rest of the UK. It *could* have been different if we'd realised we were being conned in 2014.

Scotland is literally a powerhouse, producing nearly half the UK's renewable energy and sending £billions of our power to the south of England. Yet we pay the highest energy bills in Europe. It could have been different. It still could be. #IndependenceIsNormal

There is a clear trajectory showing majority support for Scottish independence. Even polls that artificially skew their survey samples towards No, now show a Yes majority. We must now start planning for #Indyref2 with or without Westminster consent.

Brian knows, or *should* know as a politician, that the UK and EU unions are very different things indeed. Methinks he is pretending ignorance in the hope he can con you. Don't be conned.

Between now & GE2026 the Unionist media will ramp up criticism of NHS Scotland, though they know full well that it out-performs the NHS in Tory/Labour England, Labour Wales and NI by some measure in almost all areas. Why? They believe if they can con you on this they can con you on *anything*.

My new blog piece, about Starmer's Digital Identity Cards and his latest move to enable authoritarianism. Get your DIC out for Starmer. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2025/09/26/g...

The biggest far-right demonstration in British history is a gruesome reminder of how much trouble we are in. Since the financial crash, the direction of travel for the far right across the West has only been in one direction - and that is up.

Yes but they're not terrorists though. It's not like any of them were pensioners armed to the teeth with cardboard signs. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Let me elaborate my disagreement with @zackpolanski.bsky.social in a 🧵. The scenes on our streets are not "the consequences of decades of austerity" but of centuries of racism propagated by the British ruling classes to rationalise the social order they have constructed at home and abroad.

I grew up as a person of colour in Kent, surrounded by people who were v.keen to express views to me that would now make them Reform voters. "Your sort shouldn't be here", "F**k off back to P*kiland". Things of that nature. But its always the poor far right voters who are the victims, isnt it?

You will not see a more tangible encapsulation of the genocide. A war of utter annihilation waged as a joint enterprise between the Israeli state on the ground and its allies in consistent support. The debt of reparations that the West owes to the Palestinian people at this point is incalculable.

So the reward offered to Israel merely for *partial* compliance with international law is that the UK will continue to deny recognition to a Palestinian state? This is the great Peace Plan that Starmer has served up?

The BBC, biased? Oh yes…and most especially in Scotland www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/07... Is the BBC biased? You bet your bottom dollar it is, as my experience on BBC Radio Scotland this morning showed.

The process of colonial theft doesn't end when you finish extracting people's wealth and resources on their soil at gunpoint. It continues when you then deploy violent borders to shut out people from those countries so you can keep the proceeds of that theft for yourselves

If the UK were really seeking "de-escalation" it wouldn't be (a) floating the possibility of intervening on the side of the aggressor state; (b) amplifying the aggressor state's narrative; and (c) reserving 100% of its criticism for the state targeted by the aggression.
