Indy is normal. Being governed by your neighbour is not.

"A country denied the ability to run its own economy is blamed for being bankrupt by the authority which exercises those macro-economic powers over it.
The British treasury pulls our wings off then laughs when we can't fly!"
The problem with the UK is that people earning £1000 per hour have convinced people earning £12 per hour that people earning £7.83 per hour are the problem.
BBC Scotland has never in its history, been as conspiratorially biased in favour of the Union as it is now. It is worse now than in the run up to the 2014 referendum.
It now no more than a dedicated and fully committed Unionist propaganda channel.

Never forget that at around the same time two people travelled to Scotland with Covid, one alone the other with an entourage. One of them was publicly pilloried before being sacked. The other was crowned king of the UK.
Douglas Ross is furious😠at Michael Mathieson.
He thinks he should be fired.
When you look at the details of his own tax and expenses transgressions they actually look much, much worse. Read this and repost!
The UK gov has had three leaders in the last six months. One was sacked for lying, the next trashed the UK economy and the third is busy creating poverty and hardship on a never before seen level.
The MSM are ignoring this and talking of "turmoil" in the SNP.
Police Scotland spend more than a million pounds on an investigation into the funding and finances of the Scottish National Party. They were looking at how £600K was spent!
They have found absolutely nothing!
Who pushed them to do this?
I live on Loch Lomond side. Full of English tourists blatantly ignoring the mask rules in pubs, restaurants and shops.
Why is that English people are happy to follow the rules when holidaying in Spain. Portugal, etc. but not in Scotland?
#BBCQT
Fiona Bruce interrupting Stephen Flynn four times then allowing the Tory to also interrupt during the very first question. It's clear that this was a pre-planned tactic designed to unsettle him. She's a rabid Unionist who clearly hates the SNP.
Despite the problems in the SNP since the last election, despite any faults and transgressions, I will again be voting for them on July 4th because they are the only realistic route to independence.
That's a fact and signs now are that they'll win comfortably, despite the polls.
Can you envisage any situation where someone makes a complaint to the Metropolitan police about how the Conservative party is using it's funds and it results in an investigation that is still ongoing after two years with no charges being made?
Serious question to those against an independent Scotland. It's now eight years since the last referendum. Name me anything positive, any benefit, Scotland has gained from voting No in 2014.
No hypotheticals. Just facts. Name anything.
Gary Lineker criticises new UK government policy on Rwanda. Immediately suspended by BBC.
Ally McCoist criticises Scottish government new Hate Crime law & suggests that he and more than 40K others are going to break the law at old firm game. No problem.
I think that Douglas Ross is a despicable, backstabbing, self-serving, evil apology for a human being. Can anyone offer me any evidence to the contrary?
I'm 73, I've been paying taxes for about 56 years. I'm happy to pay taxes when I can see the benefits to society in Scotland. I am not happy to see taxes cut to benefit the already well off.
BBC Scotland has never in its history, been as conspiratorially biased in favour of the Union as it is now. It is worse now than in the run up to the 2014 referendum. It now no more than a dedicated and fully committed Unionist propaganda channel. (RT if you agree.)
If we had voted Yes in 2014 we would be pissing ourselves laughing at the ongauns in Westminster right now, instead of being forced to suffer the effects of them.
I watched FM's questions today with incredulity as
@Douglas4Moray
(who stated that Boris Johnson was an honest man and also supported, Truss and Sunak) tried to attack the Scottish government about integrity in public office.
What a loathsome **** he is!
How does he sleep?
Three party leaders in the Scottish parliament,
@Douglas4Moray
,
@AnasSarwar
and
@agcolehamilton
are absolutely furious that the people of Scotland may be allowed to determine their own future. Think about that for a moment.
Decisions about how England is run are made in England.
Indeed decisions about how the whole UK is run are made in England.
Why do most English people think it's anathema for us to want to make decisions about how Scotland is run, in Scotland?
If we had voted YES in 2014 we would be well on our way by now. We'd be settling into independence, in the EU and shaking our heads in disbelief at the predicament our Tory neighbours had put themselves in.
SNP minister Michael Mathieson makes one mistake in expenses and tries to cover it up.
All hell let loose by the BBC 🎆🎆🎆
Tory Opposition Leader Douglas Ross's own colleagues report that he deliberately and repeatedly made fraudulent travel claims.
Silence from the BBC 😴😴😴
The Unionists who were seething about the bin men's strike and blaming it all on Nicola Sturgeon's "failure" to get involved are now apoplectic that she got involved and solved it.
No matter what your politics are the racist hatred that Humza Yousaf has to put up with is beyond the pale. Some of the responses to this are starkly racist as is the MSM coverage he suffers. There is no place for these people in a civilised society.
🧵I don't usually respond to smears against me or my family, but this story is so outrageous it requires a response.
Most of my political life, I've battled insinuations from sections of the media desperate to link me to terrorism despite campaigning my whole life against it.
He says, "West Dunbartonshire needs a Scottish Labour MP."
For 65 years, 1950 until 2015, West Dunbartonshire had Labour MPs, a period that turned it into one of the poorest and most deprived areas in Scotland.
Also, there is no such thing as a "Scottish Labour MP."
Irrespective of what you believe about the Salmond court case or whose side you are on, he and his Alba party are now actively damaging the independence movement.
If we had voted Yes in 2014 we would be pissing ourselves laughing at the ongauns in Westminster right now, instead of being forced to suffer the effects of them.
BBC Reporting Scotland tonight could be used in a study of propaganda. A shocking hatefest on the Scottish government based on the square root of f* ck all.

On Sat. 4th May 2019 100K folk marched in Glasgow for Independence.
Old, young, black, brown, white & yellow, Rangers, Celtic, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Buddhist, Sikh, Atheist, rich, poor, Scots, English, Irish, Welsh & more.
There was no trouble.

The first time I voted was Friday November 3rd 1967. I was 18 years of age at the time. I have kept this copy for almost 57 years and supported Independence for Scotland all my adult life.

Anas Sarwar has been totally discredited. The last couple of weeks have unquestionably proven that he is not "Scottish" Labour. He is a Westminster puppet. He must resign.

And as we all now know, when the truth emerged he went into hiding. He is nowhere to be seen. This is a major political story but the MSM has given him a free ride on this.
No matter the outcome of the Alex Salmond allegations no one who is seeking Independence for Scotland should buy the Daily Record. Its agenda is to actively and openly oppose us.
Let's send it the way of the Sunday Herald.
Don't buy it.
Please RT if you agree.
It's a sad reflection on the state of this fialed Union when a scandal of this scale continues to be ignored by the media (and the authorities) while they repeatedly promote nonsensical trivia in their attempts to discredit Humza Yousaf and the SNP.
Labour worthies claiming the SNP was playing politics yesterday.
It was an SNP opposition day.
They proposed an immediate ceasefire.
Labour highjacked this with an amendment they claimed was better.
Why didn't they propose this on one of their own opposition days?
The fact that [black woman] Meghan Markle gets more hatred from the UK establishment than [child molestor] Prince Andrew tells us all we need to know about the depths to which UK society has sunk.
Watching Tory Douglas Ross having the temerity to constantly talk of Humza Yousaf and the Scottish Government lacking political integrity without blushing makes me seethe with rage.
He can only do it because he has the MSM backing him. Anywhere else he would be crucified.
Despite the public being brainwashed by endless and unashamed propaganda, polling for Scottish Independence is consistently sitting at around 50%.
Without this propaganda it would easily be 70% to 75%.
Since this election was announced it has become quite clear that, in Scotland, it's not a choice between SNP, Tory and Labour.
It's a choice between SNP and right wing Unionism with its austerity, racism and supremacist baggage.
👏👏👏
The late Derek Bateman on Independence.
"A country denied the ability to run its own economy is blamed for being bankrupt by the authority which exercises those macro-economic powers over it. The British treasury pulls our wings off then laughs when we can't fly!"
Crazy radical Scot with a criminal record complains to police about SNP spending.
Massive police presence at their house, tents in garden, the whole shooting match and a £650k investigation.
No charges.
Baroness Mone openly and blatantly embezzles £21M.
Not a problem.
If we had voted Yes in 2014 we would be pissing ourselves laughing at the ongauns in Westminster right now, instead of being forced to suffer the effects of them.
I watched this last night with incredulity.
I can think of no other occasion that someone with such extreme views was allowed to speak for so long without being challenged on the lies she was spouting.
Fiona Bruce was her facilitator, letting her away with it!
This deranged person was let loose on national TV. She says:
1. No one was being starving in Gaza
2. The UN is run by Hamas operatives
3. “you can go on YouTube and find images of food in Gaza”
Everyone laughs as she starts squeals “why are you laughing?”
BBC
We need to do a bit about the Jocks' new FM.
Need a picture to illustrate it.
How about this one of him smilingly hearing the result?
Fuck no. He needs to look like a terrorist or at least an illegal.
Ok, how about this one?
Fuck yeah! That's a belter!
UK/England has traditionally held on to their colonies while they extracted most of the wealth from them before granting them their independence. For years they have been scheming, unashamedly lying and cheating to hold on to Scotland. Draw your own conclusions.
JOANNA CHERRY
"She said the SNP's core support was "very disillusioned at the party's failure to progress the cause of independence", citing missed opportunities following Brexit and Boris Johnson's premiership and calling it a "huge strategic failure"."
Who agrees?
Posting this again
"Claiming that Scotland cannot support itself based on stats that come directly or indirectly from the UK government is a bit like a divorce hearing where the petitioner is only allowed to use evidence supplied by the defendant."
💢💢OUTRAGEOUS BBC
If there was ever a more blatant and outrageous example of
#BBCBias
this is it. How on earth can they be allowed to manipulate the truth in this way. Something really must be done!
💢💢
Here's what Baroness Hallett said and what BBC Scotland reported.
Her remarks have been grossly manipulated and misrepresented by a broadcaster to make it appear as though she specifically singled out the Scottish Govt when she spoke about citizens being failed. She didn't.
I'm being deliberately repetitive here. We need to keep this trending.
#ArrestMone
Is the UK establishment just going to let Michelle Mone away with it?
You know the more I look at this the more bizarre it becomes.
Can you imagine any other situation where a prominent politician campaigns for someone while promising to oppose him when he is elected?
Anyone who cannot now understand that Scotland is no more than an irrelevance to Westminster really needs to have good look at themselves. Hoyle MUST resign !
"We’ve been the victims of a stitch up."
Stephen Flynn, the SNP Westminster leader, responds to Commons Gaza vote chaos.
He tells
@krishgm
that the Speaker is 'now going to have to convince me his position is tenable'.
All things considered, this pales into insignificance when we consider that the king's brother (yes the KING of the UK!) paid out £12M to avoid being tried as a paedo.
Emma Hardy, "I cannot believe that I am about to say this, but after 14 long years of Conservative rule. In 21st century Britain, our water is no longer safe to drink"

FM's Questions
Douglas Ross and Ana's Sarwar both coincidentally resurrecting the Michael Mathieson issue today. Both with the same questions framed in the same way.
Anyone who can not see that they did not collude on this is not watching. 1/
As I have said before, they're happy to pump sh*te onto almost all of their beaches. There's no way some radioactive sh*te in the Clyde is going to be a problem for them. Jocks are dispensable - always have been!
This is their "F*** you!" smile.
The sins of this pair of corrupt, self-serving reprobates continue to be ignored by the establishment. That tells us all we need to know about this failed Union.
Putting all other issues to one side (like too wee, too poor and too stupid) can anyone tell me why they would NOT want to be governed by the people of their own country?
I really don't understand how anyone can revel in their belief that it should otherwise.

The Scottish Government's Hate Crime Bill.
The overall result was 82 MSPs voted FOR the Bill, 32 voted AGAINST the Bill and there were four abstentions.
How on earth is this controversial?
