The Westminster race to the right has left families struggling while the rich get richer. We can build a fairer future. A fresh start with independence. Join me at 3pm as I set out that hopeful vision for Scotland.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Greta Thunberg has just been released and she is back on the warpath, exactly like our leaders should be. Israel will never silence her or the billions who oppose them.

NEW: Extraordinary scenes in Amsterdam this afternoon (Sunday, Oct 5). An estimated 250,000 bring the city to a standstill; people all wearing red to show solidarity with Palestine 🇵🇸 (🎥 Ahmed Zantac)

The SNP and Believe in Scotland have outlined how they’ll work together to strengthen the independence movement in signed a working agreement Read the full document 👇

Hundreds of activists have gathered inside Glasgow Central Station to protest against the interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla 👇

If the people of Scotland vote to have a referendum, there should be a referendum, simple as that. #ScottishIndependence

BREAKING: Dozens of delegates have staged a walk out of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at the United Nations

I am opposed to mandatory digital ID - people should be able to go about their daily lives without such infringements. That aside, by calling it BritCard, the Prime Minister seems to be attempting to force every Scot to declare ourselves British. I am a Scot. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Good news klaxon 🔊

100%!

Gaza Genocide: UK government must end all arms exports to Israel. After UN findings on genocide of Palestinians by Israel how can Labour ministers justify any military support to Israel?

I am faaaaaaar from the SNP's biggest fan, but anyone in Scotland looking at the huge, racist march in London today & not planning to vote SNP in 2026 needs to take a good hard look at where the UK is going. Tories, Labour & Reform are all right-wing parties chasing each other to the hard right. 😳😳

On Labour’s watch, energy bills are up, living standards are stagnant, and Farage looks more and more likely to be the next UK Prime Minister. Scotland must have the right to choose a better future - a fresh start with independence. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

NEW: Extraordinary scenes in Brussels today. Almost a quarter of a million people on the streets marching for Palestine, calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza. This footage was captured by freelance photojournalist, Wahaj Bani Moufleh 👏

Let’s be clear - a genocide is unfolding in Gaza as a result of Israel’s actions. We all have a moral and legal responsibility to act, and Scotland will play its part. Today I have set out a range of diplomatic, economic and humanitarian measures. Read below for more. 🧵

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland’s future must be up to the people of Scotland. I will be saying more on this tomorrow at 9am.

A few photos from a very hot day up A' Chralaig and Mullach Fraoch-choire yesterday. Those creepy keds were out in force too! On the other hand, I can't remember getting such clear visibility on hot August days as we've had this summer - very little haze. Where did you get out to?

It's a start (At last) www.youtube.com/shorts/JITkT...

Growing Scotland’s forests also helps to grow our economy, create jobs and tackle climate change. The brand new Newton Nursery plants an astonishing 19 million trees a year — with around 5 million thriving right now, in what is the world’s most advanced glasshouse. 🌱

I want to live in a Scotland where no child grows up in poverty. Child poverty is falling in Scotland, because we’re choosing to act. But only with the powers of independence, we can transform our society and end child poverty for good. My column in today’s Daily Record. 👇

People in Scotland are best equipped to decide what kind of country we want - not Westminster politicians. Just look at the disaster of Brexit, austerity and soaring energy costs under both Tory and Labour governments. The real change we need is independence. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Anas Al-Sharif was one of the most remarkable reporters of his generation. For 673 days, he defied Israeli threats to kill him. Al Jazeera now confirm their crew in Gaza City have all been assassinated: RIP reporters Anas Al-Sharif & Mohammed Qareqea and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher & Mohammed Nofal

This ⏬️ A million times. @nicolasturgeon.bsky.social gets it. We now have so few leaders that confidently argue & defend immigration. As a fmr Australian Family Migration Officer, I miss this. I miss the open-mindedness. I miss Scotland. And I miss the adults in the political room.

The decision of the Israeli Government to seize control of Gaza City is completely and utterly unacceptable. It will create even more human suffering for the Palestinian people and further escalate the conflict. The international community must stop Israel and secure a ceasefire.

More Palestinians die from starvation as UN Security Council prepares to discuss Israel’s plan to take over Gaza City.

This clip of Marc Maron is incredible. www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1e0...

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social @labouruk.bsky.social @labourlist.bsky.social You really are all god awful shits for being just as bad as the Tories would have been. This is an atrocity on a horrendous scale. You're all complict if you're letting Starmer get away with this crap.

Now I'm no Armando Iannucci, but I can say with some confidence that Larry & Paul are the future, ne saviours of British comedy.

Local Community Facebook group is this morning channelling it's inner Hot Fuzz.

A lot has happened since 2014 and if the Scots want to choose they should have that choice Those aren't my words but that of Lib Dem MP Tim Farron 👇 A Lib Dem MP has called for Alex Cole-Hamilton to accept that if the people of Scotland want another independence referendum then it should happen, 👇

At this crucial time as we await the Supreme Court decision on car finance, beware the spray of car finance reclaiming adverts. You could end up giving away 30% of your money and get NOTHING in return…

Absolutely fucking obscene

This young man named Fousseynou saved the life of an entire family of Six on the Sixth floor of a building in Paris, France. 11 He deserves a national award.

Scotland doesn’t need nuclear power we are already a net exporter of electricity. Data shows that Scotland exported 21.0 TWh and imported 1.3 TWh of electricity in 2024. Scotland was a net exporter of electricity in 2024 of 19.7 TWh worth £1.5 billion. www.gov.scot/publications...

This looks pretty sweet. Of course, I'm a bit biased, since I'm a writer-producer on it. But still... www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1uw...

While child poverty rose in the UK, in Scotland it fell by 12% since 2017. We must go even further. To give every child the best start in life, we’re taking real action: ✅ Delivering the Scottish Child Payment ✅ Expanding free school meals ✅ Ending the two-child cap news.stv.tv/scotland/dro...
