The BBC coverage of the UCI road race is cringeworthy🙈. No knowledge of Glasgow, landmarks etc. Commentator just pronounced Montrose Street as 'Mont rose'. Can't take it anymore - gonna have to watch it on mute🙉.
On the lowest level of the Glasgow Necropolis, not far from the cathedral, you'll find this memorial to Scotland's National Hero - William Wallace.
It commemorates an event that you won't find in Braveheart, or most history books, known as the Battle of the Bell o the Braes.

So amazing to see our First Minister at the very front of the march - literally leading us to independence. More of this please

He said that with market reform and regional pricing "Scotland would have the cheapest electricity in Europe".

Thanks again for speaking up about this, Michael👍 Hopefully in an independent Scotland we can build a country free from this vile hatred and bigotry🏴
Anyone watching The Great Climate Fight on Ch4? My blood pressure is going through the roof with just how much profit the Oil&Gas companies make. Scotland has been totally screwed over the years😖😡
70% of the price of scotch whisky goes directly to WM treasury
Exporting Scotch whisky contributed £6 BILLION to the economy
Scottish food & drink export has increased by 30%
Can you imagine what we could do with that revenue if it came straight to Scotland
NEW: Scotland's newest Labour MPs have visited Downing Street to meet Keir Starmer following their election success.
They smiled in front of the England flags adorning the street's railings for the Euros.
@ShimonaGordon
I don’t need to give my head a wobble. I won’t be giving Starmer my vote EVER! He’s a liar, a genocide enabler, a red Tory and a denier of democracy to Scotland. This is a guy who is happy to keep the 2 child benefit cap and sell off the NHS😡🤮

Seriously Norrie? I don’t agree with Freeports either but I’ll still be voting SNP. If we don’t back the SNP at this election we can kiss goodbye to independence for a very long time.

you are so far off the mark with this interpretation.The so called ' finance scandal' &the covid questioning at today's kangaroo court are all just attempts to discredit NS & crush indy. NS was excellent through covid & has not been charged at all re SNP finances.

Wow! Just unbelievable.What a horrible man he is. And I dread to think what a horrible PM he's going to make. I utterly despise him & the Labour Party and urge everyone in Scotland to avoid them like the plague! For the palestinians, for peace & for 🏴, DO NOT VOTE LABOUR...EVER.
When Truss and Sunak arrive in Perth on the 16th of August, let all of we Scottish Independenistas be there in huge numbers. Let's have the demo big enough for the media not to ignore this. Had enough insults and being talked down to. We're angry. Let's show it.

What? That's mental. I had the same conversation with a consultant at the hospital - he believed microclots were only present in patients with acute covid🙈
So there you have it, people of Scotland. We're not allowed to do what's best for the people of Scotland. Meanwhile more people will die, needlessly😖 Absolutely digusting. DO NOT... EVER... VOTE FOR THIS LOT!

I'm not interested in anything to do with the UK. It's corrupt, dysfunctional and utterly broken. Scarily, England is lurching further to the right. I want independence for Scotland asap so that we can build a fairer, greener, more equal society.

For goodness sake, we don't have 'segregation'. Parents have choice!! They choose which school they want their kids to attend. And lots of non catholics choose to attend catholic schools. Hatred is taught at home NOT at school!!

@HughRBrechin
He makes a very valid point. You can argue all you like about whether or not Scotland is a colony but the truth is that Scotland is being denied its democratic right to choose. Despite the many mandates, we're currently prisoners in this dysfuntional& corrupt union.😡

For the first time ever, I just received a YouGov survey on independence, SNP, etc. Loads of questions on the party, the candidates, same sex marriage, indyref timing, party membership etc. Anyone else had this survey?
3 reasons why not to vote for Labour.
There is only one party in Scotland to vote for, and that's the SNP who held both Labour and the Conservatives to account over Gaza in Westminster. SNP initiated and supported a vote for a ceasefire. However, both Labour and the
@PartickDriver
The way I see it is that in this FPTP system,a vote for anyone other than the SNP is a vote for the union. It’s as simple as that. That’s the way the MSM & estab’t will frame it if the SNP loses ground.They will say the people hv spoken, they want to stay in t union, Indy is dead

It's the people of Scotland tbat have continually voted for Nicola Sturgeon/SNP and we, the people of Scotland, are NOT givng up. We will continue to fight for democracy and for our independence and we expect Nicola Sturgeon to do the same🏴

The block grant has NOT increased. And this so called 'block grant' is actually a partial refund of the money Scotland pays in revenues to Westminster.Until we have full control over our own money we will never have enough money to fully fund services -always fighting over scraps

Sadly, I think the constant bombardment of anti SNP headlines from the MSM works for a % of the population. They just see a headline and believe it🙈. I wish the SNP rebuttal unit would hurry up. We need to fight back &educate people of the reality that Labour = Tory Lite.
@AngelaHaggerty
OMG, Angela. I do not agree at all. Labour are pro union, pro Brexit and support just about every obnoxious Tory policy! Absolutely no way I will ever vote Labour! I'd rather stick pins in my eyes.

It’s an absolutely brilliant policy. It’s hard to quantify all the benefits. Definitely helps with the cost of living for families and young people but also with health and well-being too. Long may it continue🏴

It's been normalised for so long, I don't think they think it's anything serious to abuse Irish Catholics. In fact Scottish society in general has been and still is guilty of not taking it seriously. Thank you for continuing to call it out👍👏

As far as a I'm aware, the ferry crosses once a day. It stays 20 mins before returning to the mainland. She spoke to everyone on the island so how was she supposed to do that in 20mins? And there were others with her too. It's quite normal for people to use the chartered boats.

He doesn't care.He knew it was a lie. It's all about pushing a narrative that Scotland is crap, the Scot govt is crap and therefore Scotland is not capable of governing itself. They fling as much mud as they can hoping some of it will stick. I honestly cannot stand the Tories😖😡
