‘What did Nicola Sturgeon do for Scotland during her time as First Minister?’

Getting told that I’m a ‘newcomer’ to Scotland, therefore I don’t understand it’s heritage and don’t have a say in Scotland’s future 😂
I was born in Scotland, therefore I am Scottish. Hope that clears it up for every racist out there.

A very sad day for Scottish Democracy.
This is not a voluntary union, nor is it a union of equals. The UK Supreme Court ruling has made that clear. No one should have a say in the future of Scotland other than the people who live in Scotland.

By stating Scotland simply ‘aren’t allowed’ to have another independence referendum because Starmer & Sunak don’t want to talk about it is undemocratic.

It was the SNP who called for an immediate ceasefire last November. It was the SNP who encouraged Labour to call for one now.
