Excellent article here by Scottish Minute Man shared via Danny McCafferty @dmccafferty49 which needs to be shared widely. Please ensure the McGills and BBC Reporting Scotland don't get to hold the moral high ground here. Share share share @MaureenFairgri1 #CitizenJournalists @BjCruickshank @juliaca59959773 @colz261 @brawday
With McGills making noises against taking the Scottish bus network into public control the following information puts it in context.

Burnham wants to help with the cost of living crisis. Could do it in a second in Scotland. Give us electricity zonal pricing. Cheapest energy then in Western Europe. He won't. Why? Can't have Scotland doing better than England. A Union of Equals? Never. Always England first.

Women weren’t allowed to take out workplace pensions for many years in the 70’s & 80’s or have a mortgage or loan without a husband. How exactly were they expected to save or invest? Young people think post war 1940’s suddenly became the 90’s. It didn’t it was very very different
Approx one third of pensioners have no private pension. They prob worked hard all their lives, paid their taxes and didn’t have the opportunity or financial means to take out a private pension. They probably voted Labour too, the party who think they are overpaid on £12,548 pa.

Replying to @STVColin
Once in a generation nonsense resurrected yet again The people of Scotland did not consent to the 2014 referendum being "once in a generation". Nowhere in any binding legal document in connection with the referendum is that cited or agreed. Burnham is trying to deny democracy.

"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!" - Derek Bateman ... I miss him.

Fgs @bbcnews. 1) pensioners haven’t suddenly appeared , they’ve been alive nearly 70years. 2) many pensioners don’t get the full pension 3) this year’s increase will be based on the average income rise. AVERAGE. Why should pensioners get a smaller increase? Ask the questions!

What on earth is going on at @BBCSportScot ? No open all mics again today. Instead,a full live commentary of Ross County v Hibs with the tediously boring @Kheredine2018, a completely backward step like listening to a game in the 1970’s. Not worth listening to in this format. 😖

What is the point of @BBCScotland ? Once again we are subjected to the English transmission of a WC game. Where has Liam McLeod or Al Lamont gone? Where are our Scottish pundits? A completely pointless organisation. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Nicola Sturgeon deliberately prevented the accounts being investigated. I raised concerns in writing on the 7th August 2020. There was clear evidence of missing Ring Fenced Funds. I have the written evidence that I submitted to Peter Murrell, Ian McCann, Kirsten Oswald and Scott Martin.

The @SNP must have an independent inquiry as to why their governance protocols failed. The individuals asking awkward questions were wrongly dismissed and deserve an apology. The processes around approving their annual accounts is also key to what went wrong and who knew. 🤔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What is this paranoia on @BBCNews about the bloody weather. Seriously, a couple of hot days and you are wetting yourselves. Get a grip. Surely, there must be actual news you should be reporting on? 😡

Grangemouth produced 97% of Scotland's aviation fuel before Labour allowed it to be shut down.
Remarkable new levels of dishonesty from Kemi Badenoch. She surely knows that jet fuel supply is about global refining capacity, not the supply of crude. More North Sea crude would do nothing to solve the global refined products issue. She is simply misleading people.

I'm interested in the "political advantage" part of the attack on the SNP and Lord Advocate. How does being informed that your former CEO has been indicted on a charge of embezzlement of your party's funds give you political advantage?

So, Dunfermline end the year with the Fife bragging rights. 🏁 A first win at Stark’s Park in almost 9 years. Hard fought but they leave with a 2-1 win - and celebrations to remember.

100 km of 70 metre high pylons will go through Aberdeenshire and Angus to take power to Drax in England. The bit in Yorkshire goes underground. Those pylons are little short of landscape vandalism. Scots Gov must not pass this. Sub sea and/or underground. End off.
