Independence is like moving out of a hellish flat share. It doesn’t solve all your problems but it means you can go about your business without some twat stealing your milk and starting fights with all your neighbours.
Important thread. Worth also reminding people that the SNP like all other parties allows conscience votes on matters such as abortion etc. So really the attacks on Kate Forbes for her personal religious views need to stop.

The rush from the 'men in grey kilts' to crown John Swinney even before other contenders have thrown their hats in to the ring can only mean one thing. They want continuity - not for the sake of Scotland or SNP but simply to keep their own overpaid jobs and careers on track.
🎯 👏👏👏
Surely overthrowing one establishment would be good practice for overthrowing another? 🤔 ... a nice warm-up for the main gig.

I'm not in any political party. From the outside, it strikes me that the @theSNP is in need of drastic reform covering governance, strategy & leadership. It must reconnect with its members & the wider YES movement. Continuity won't cut it. Astute bravehearts or beige bureaucrats?
Alexa, can you give me an exemplar of the British establishment's ignorance of and snobbery towards Scotland? 🤣🤣🤣🙄

Well worth a read. Excellent summary! 👏👏👏
Scotland needs a hard nosed, beat the shit out of the opposition, independence top of the list because it's the only route to success, no pussyfooting sort of leader.

#OTD 52 years ago, trade unionist Jimmy Reid stood up up at Glasgow University, having been elected by the students as their new rector. The speech he delivered - hailed by the New York Times as the finest since the 'Gettysburg Address' - is as profound now as it was then.

Sunrise through misty pines at the old Caledonian forest of Rothiemurchus.
So this should tell anyone with an iota of common sense that Kate Forbes has to be the right choice.
Voters believe Kate Forbes would make a better first minister than John Swinney, new polling by Ipsos has shown. But Swinney is the favourite among SNP voters. holyrood.com/news/view,kate…
Not long ago, I acted as unofficial photographer for @andywightman’s final Munro. The Presiding Officer for the Scottish parliament, Alison Johnstone, was also in attendance. Two former Green politicians, and long-time champions of the outdoors. Ask yourself this, though: (1/5)
Unprecedented times. Today’s visit to the Sphinx snow patch at Braeriach will be my last of 2023. It is now critically small and likely to vanish in the next few days. This will be the third consecutive disappearance and unheard of in the historical era (post 1750s). (1/3)
People like this woman, are the reason the SNP have lost more than half their members and continue on their downward spiral. Why don’t these people just go and destroy the Scottish Greens?!!

This
Male politicians who chose to pander to activists issuing violent threats against their own female MPs enabled and emboldened the toxic culture @Keir_Starmer now claims to deplore. When you're part of the cause, you've got some brass neck putting yourself forward as a cure.
Where would we be without the political insight of Ms. Given? Pandering to Gen Z and younger Millennial gobshites like Given and incel wee guys with the rapey moustaches is what helped put the SNP in the situation it’s in.

Can’t believe we’ve reached a place where atheists like me need to start sticking up for the kaffliks and proddies. 🤦🏼♂️
Public service reminder to folk commenting on Kate Forbes - Free Church positions on moral questions are almost always identical to official Roman Catholic positions (on contraception/divorce more liberal) so think before writing something about FC you wouldn’t write about RC?
Independence is like moving out of a hellish flat share. It doesn’t solve all your problems but it means you can go about your business without some twat stealing your milk and starting fights with all your neighbours.
The SNP is full of people who believe that independence is a panacea, and is also inevitable and close. Which means they don’t have the ability to think about problems, and how to solve them. What’s the point in thinking, when the giant solution to everything will be here soon?
@luluphooey @theSNP They'll lose in 2026 with Swinney.
Scotland has lost £250bn in profit extraction since Devolution. £250bn. Keep that number in mind the next time the Scottish Government crows about 'inward investment'. It's fucking useless if the nation's being stripped bare in the process heraldscotland.com/news/24282417.…
And…think before you argue FC folks have no place in your party or parliament if you wouldn’t say the same about more conservative RC folks who hold to their church’s teachings + think about who is welcome in public life in Scotland (we are all still free to vote against stuff)
This also applies of course to many more conservative Jews and Muslims. Relatively conservative views on personal morality may also be combined with radical views on economic justice and pacifist or nuclear pacifist views. We need to keep public/party spaces as open as possible
I’m tempted to join 😎
