Losing a few followers just now but I don’t care. What normal people have done in Glasgow Southside this afternoon is to be applauded, cheered and repeated in many places. How can people and families in a community be ‘illegal’ ?
I’m happy to pay more tax in Scotland +my 3 children all graduated from Scottish Universities with no tuition fees saving them £108,000.00. As a Family we also benefit from free prescriptions as well as more Doctors, Nurses, Teachers & Police Officers per head of population.
Scotland, Interesting facts: Scotland has 97% of UK’s oil production, 50% of gas production, 98% of hydro power & 25% of Europe’s entire wind power potential. Scotland is a net exporter of oil, gas & electricity. Meanwhile Scotland has amongst the highest energy costs in Europe.
I might be paying £1,200 per year more in tax in Scotland from next year but I have a 4 script prescription and my 3 kids have either graduated or at Uni. These 2 free benefits have saved me more than £90,000 over the last 4 years

Loch Ness holds an estimated 263 billion cubic feet of water which is more than all the water in all the lakes, rivers and reservoirs in the whole of England and Wales combined. Loch Ness's deepest points are over 800ft deep which is twice the average depth of the North Sea.
Why are Ireland’s energy charges going up by 35% in October while the UK’s are going up by 80%?
Does Dublin have a better Government than Westminster….looks like it does!
Talk of a halt to Scottish oil exploration and Sir Ian Wood immediately jumps up to say this will have a devastating effect on the U.K. ‘s Trade deficit and its balance sheet yet in August 2014 he effectively said the Scottish oil basin was finished and so was Scotland 🤔
Great but the company has a net worth of just under £4million so they will go bust. The beneficiaries will have the money elsewhere. It needs a criminal investigations, charges & a court case. A civil case is a waste of taxpayers money

Gas prices continue to fall dramatically and are now the average price from 5 years ago yet UK domestic & business consumers continue to pay many times more per month than other countries.
WHY ?
Prince Andrew will not pay any inheritance tax on any inheritance he receives from Her Majesty the Late Queen Elizabeth neither will any other members of the Royal Family. Inheritance Tax laws apply to every Citizen of the UK but not to the Royal Family.

If Scotland is not to get pensions & its rightful share of other assets it’s paid for in the past then it stands to reason that Scotland doesn’t get its share of National Debt either. What a start for a new country - zero debt! Result!

Scotland info: With 8.4% of the UK population its natural wealth represents 34% of the UK’s as a whole. Scotland produces double its population share of the UK’s food at roughly 16.1%. This includes 18.3% of total UK cattle and 70% of the UK’s fish landings - 60% is exported.

Interesting facts about Scotland, today the NHS:
Scotland has 76 GPs per 100,000 people, compared to a national UK average of 60. Scotland has more qualified nurses & midwives per 1,000 population than the UK, with 8.1 per 1,000 in Scotland compared to 7.9 in the UK as a whole.
I’m embarrassed to be represented in the Scottish Parliament by the thickest and least effective MSP in Scotland, the useless, privileged, multi millionaire Tory Alexander Burnett.
There’s a guy, think he’s called Jim driving about the Castle Fraser / Dunecht area of Aberdeenshire looking for drainage problems he can can solve with a spade. He’s relieving numerous flood issues. This guy deserves huge praise. Shove yer knighthoods, CBE’s etc Jim is a hero.
Energy costs: temperatures are on average 5°C lower in Scotland than in England meaning average heating bills are far higher in Scotland. The shambolic energy distribution model adopted by Westminster hurts Scottish households more than those elsewhere in the UK.
Where are the howls of derision today at the falling A Level results in England given the cacophony of angry noise and SNPbad when the Scottish results were released?
Scotland interesting facts, today crime rates: In England and Wales, the crime rate is 77.6 crimes per 1,000 people while in Scotland it is 45.1 crimes per 1,000 people.

Demands for a furlough extension in the devolved Nations is ignored until England needs it and, as if by magic it is then extended.
The Union is finished.
1/2 Scotland exports oil, gas & electricity. Scotland has vast wind generation capacity and potential for far more. Scotland has hydro storage capacity amounting to millions of clean batteries. Westminster charges us more for power, more for putting power into the grid and then..
Looking at the refereeing at the Rangers v Aberdeen game last night & in particular the penalty awarded to Rangers I’m left with the feeling there is a lot wrong in Scottish football. Aberdeen should have won all three points, everyone knows it. I’m a

the English zone is 230,190 km2 or 37% of the UK’s

You used the word ‘enjoyed’ in two separate broadcasts. You also used the word ‘opportunity’. Your attempt to explain your entirely inappropriate language on two occasions appears to lead to only one conclusion, your intention was to undermine and malign the FM.
Will MPs be consistent and ban other law breaking MPs from the Tory benches?
No, didn’t think so.
