The "free stuff" the SNP provide is all devolved. Great. The stuff that ISN'T devolved is managed by WM for the benefit of the UK, including Scotland. Like ENERGY. What have they done to enormous energy excess Scotland? Made Scots the most fuel impoverished people in Europe...

Lara Bird is an *MP*, not an MSP. That means she is part of the UK government. You know. The part where the RESERVED powers are. This has EVERYTHING to do with her job. A job most other MPs are NOT doing...
You’re an MSP, what has Palestine got to do with your job? What about Arbroath? They’re the ones your paid to be there for

You visiting Dounreay's beaches too?
Here in East Lothian, Torness shows nuclear can bring Scotland reliable power & skilled jobs. The UK Labour Govt is backing a new age of nuclear and thousands of jobs in England. It's time for the SNP Scottish Govt to reconsider its position so that Scotland doesn’t miss out.

Copying Tony Blair's homework...
תקראו את הדברים החשובים של יובל בלומברג: מדינת ישראל נמצאת בסכנה קיומית אמיתית ומוחשית. אם האיראנים ישיגו גרעין, שום דבר כבר לא ישנה יותר. הכל כל כך טפל אל מול הסכנה הקיומית של איראן והציר השיעי. הסערות המבוימות והמומצאות חדשות לבקרים נועדו להסיט את תשומת הלב מהדבר האחד שהוא החשוב ביותר: סיום העבודה באיראן. זה נוגע בקיום הפיזי של כל אדם ואדם כאן. יש לנו עוד שנתיים של טראמפ לסיים את העבודה באיראן, ואין לדעת מה יהיה לאחר מכן, אם זו תהיה קמאלה האריס, או תואם מאמדני כלשהו. זה חלון הזמן שנותר לנו כדי להשלים את העבודה הנדרשת כדי להבטיח את הקיום הפיזי שלנו לשנים הבאות. כל משאבי המדינה הנדרשים, צריכים להיות מושקעים במשימה הזו. קטאר, חרדים, אוריך, גיוס, התראות. הכל מסך עשן ענקי כדי להסתיר את הנושא היחיד שניצב מעל כולם בפער. אם יפלו במרכז הארץ שתי פצצות אטום, את מי יעניינו כל סערות הסרק האלה? הדורות הבאים לא יסלחו לנו אם נפספס את חלון ההזדמנויות ההיסטורי שמאפשר לנו לנסות ולהשלים את המשימה הקריטית ביותר שעומדת בפני הדור שלנו. זה לא יקרה עם ראש ממשלה שמוחזק בצווארו על ידי האחים המוסלמים וסייעני הטרור. זה לא יקרה עם ראש ממשלה שלא מסוגל להרים את הטלפון ולנהל שיחה אינטימית רציפה עם טראמפ. זה לא יקרה עם ראש ממשלה שלא מסוגל לעמוד בלחץ של ראיון טלויזיה. השינאה לנתניהו, ככל שהיא עולם ומלואו עבור מחנה שלם, לא תעזור מול הגרעין האיראני. כל אחד שדואג לקיום הפיזי שלו, של משפחתו, ושל אהוביו, ידו צריכה לרעוד לפני שהוא בוחר במישהו שלא יהיה מסוגל להשלים את המשימה, ובכך לדון את עצמו ואת משפחתו לסכנה של שואה שניה, בגלל השינאה הפוליטית שלו או בגלל סערת דמה מטופשת וחסרת חשיבות.

Anyone else been caught by the bus gates in Aberdeen city centre? I was a few years ago and the result is I don't bother going there anymore if at all possible. They are basically the re-emergence of TOLLS. TOLLS were ABOLISHED almost 20 years ago. Why do these even exist?

England's 'market rate' for water is around 0.3p per litre. England's projected annual shortfall of water is estimated to reach 1.5B litres PER DAY by 2030. That's ~£1.6B annually that should go toward keeping Scottish water of great quality and affordable. Thanks.
Water is privatised in England so we would need to sell it at market rate.

To put that in deeper context, England's projected shortfalls of potable water in just the next 4 years are 50% higher than Scotland's entire current annual consumption. Other independent nations wouldn't just gift that, just like they don't gift energy. Why should we? #NotMates

It's owned by the licence SELLER, which is a governmental body with full authority to revoke, abolish or continue any and all licencing.
It’s neither Scotland’s or England’s oil and gas. It’s owned by the licence holder of the field. 2nd Indy Ref isn’t happening either you SNP fan boy.

No thanks. Scotland already has enough energy.
Here in East Lothian, Torness shows nuclear can bring Scotland reliable power & skilled jobs. The UK Labour Govt is backing a new age of nuclear and thousands of jobs in England. It's time for the SNP Scottish Govt to reconsider its position so that Scotland doesn’t miss out.

Reminds me of something...
They claim to be defending British culture. Yet somehow they’ve managed to make a British street look like the setting for an extremist recruitment video.

Has Burnham & Co moved investments into tinned food and bottled water? I thought the government was supposed to discourage stockpiling and panic buying...

Stockpiling 3 days of food and water isn't really going to fill much gaps when Labour drag us into another war...

The UK did accumulate a £1T+ O&G Wealth fund. From Scotland's predominant resources. It just never stayed in the UK...
NEW Britain’s missing sovereign wealth fund… Treasury officials have modelled that had the UK done what Norway did with North Sea revenues, there would be a £1 trillion fund… As Chancellor sets up Energy Wealth Fund, a look at the long historical argument about where the oil windfall went, including from interviews with those who have run Norways $2.4 trillion fund, now the biggest in the world, filled from the proceeds of the same North Sea. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm4g…

That excuse might work for farting at the dinner table. Probably not...

I’m tired of people like you always trying to put Jews in the spotlight for things every other group has already done before. Stop trying to single me out because you have a sick obsession with my people. Enough is enough.

Maybe 93% have a conscience that talks to them...
So, given only 32% of Jewish kids attend non-Jewish schools, this data must mean that 187.5% of them ‘have faced anti-Semitism’. Overblown doesn’t begin to cover this nonsense.

What is England's deficit?

Asking AI what England's compounded deficit is returns the purposeful confusion and omission cast wide about UK revenue. England hides its massive resource deficiencies behind a UK wide fiscal veil. England's deficits become a shared UK debt. Scotland, Wales & NI get the blame.

Meanwhile, in another PPE fast lane universe...
Insufficient PPE and people discharged untested into care homes caused the covid virus to spread like wildfire. The care sector exposed by the Scottish Government because of a lack of pandemic planning. xitter.cf/STVNews/status/2112508…

Devolution was always planned to stop at the doors of the English parliament, leaving England as the nation that decides before the devolved nations get thrown some scraps. Labour made sure of that, whilst promising the opposite, alongside Scottish Home Rule...
