I'm leaving twitter for a bit. I can't be doing with the constant negativity. I need to focus my strength & energy on recovering from the stroke & the indy campaign ahead. not on dealing with people who look at a rose garden and only see shit. I'll be back when I feel stronger.

Johnson is breaking the lock down that the rest of us have to obey so he can come to Scotland on a "charm offensive" and lecture us on why we need him to govern us. He thinks it's charm, Most in Scotland just think he's offensive

to Brexiters who say if we don't like Brexit we should piss off and live in Europe, we'd love to but you took away freedom of movement and made it impossible. So we're just going to stay and bring the UK to an end with Scottish independence, a task you've made much easier for us

Scots media keeps attacking Nicola Sturgeon like a flock of demented chickens but with no effect on support for indy. It's not about her, it's not about the SNP. It's about how this UK we live in is not the UK promised to Scotland in 2014.
