So what you're saying is that Brexit and Scottish Independence are not done deals no matter what dirty tricks you pull or how much you talk over people in an imperial manner?

1918: Ireland elects a majority of Sinn Féin MPs, 73/105, pledged to set up an independent parliament. Westminster ignores Dáil Éireann, then bans it.
2026: #Scotland elects yet another majority of pro-indy MSPs, who vote by 72—55 for a 2nd #indyref. Just as they promised. Within hours, an anonymous Downing Street spokesman says "no". A faceless no.
After 108 years, #UKgov still doesn't get this democracy thing.
Can anyone go to London SW1 with a large #cluebat?

@petealexharris @ChrisMayLA6 I believe we did have the slogan in Scotland for shopping (after the 2014 #indyref) "If it has a Jack put it back". Though, I suspect that doesn't fit the 'Buy British' concept 😉

Caught between the UK and EU: What’s next for young Scots?
So much of Scotland’s history has been forged by its relationship to England and by one central question: union or independence?
Brexit has given the independence movement new momentum, and with Scottish elections coming up in May, the question is back at the centre of the debating table.

#DouglasAlexander has been Secretary of State for Scotland since September 2025, having previously held the role from 2006 to 2007.
In his first term, in 2007, Dougie insisted that the only way to achieve Scottish independence is for a party to win a majority in a Holyrood election, and then a majority in an Indyref.
Now his #LabourParty insists that there will be no referendum, despite a pro-independence majority.

Wondering why Keir #Starmer kowtows to #DictatorTrump ...
Does #ToxicStarmer have Stockholm Syndrome?
Seems the only logical reason to sell out the UK and be subservient to #tyrant #Trump

CW: Scotpol / Ukpol thought
#indieref2 peeps better prepare with this in mind: the Anti-Trans court ruling has flushed out the crowing goblins who'd 100% oppose a democratic and independent Scotland. Note them down.
Billionaire JK Rowling fucking bankrolled a strategic suit to overrule a Scot home-rule decision on whether be shitty to a minority, you better believe she wants London rule forever.
But also, note the Labour reaction, etc: you're seeing what they really think of Scottish self-determination, whatever mealy-mouthed diplomacy they throw when Indyref comes up.

@petealexharris @urlyman I think a second #IndyRef is for the time being impossible. I think no #Westminster government will concede one. I think the only route to #ScottishIndependence now, short of civil war (which we definitely don't want) is civil disobedience on an absolutely mass scale -- which I don't believe we're going to get.
I also think that the #SNP is currently doing a very good job of destroying the #Independence movement.

@OorAndy We aren't going to get the choice. #Westminster won't let us have another #IndyRef, and the way #Starmer is going #Farage as PM is a racing certainty.
The only way we get #ScottishIndependence is mass civil disobedience now, or civil war after 2029.
I don't think it's going to happen. Ever.

What oil is this that Starmer is so keen to use?
Scotland was told shortly before her independence referendum in 2014 that the oil was running out.
Sadly, Starmer has done a u-turn on #GreenInvestment so neither Scotland nor the planet will benefit.

@ScotInTraining There's truth in that, but what #Westminster has shown us very clearly is that they will not allow us any legal or peaceful route to #ScottishIndependence. We've had our #IndyRef, we very nearly won it despite their lies. They will never trust us with another.

Alex Salmond, the man who delivered the Scottish Independence Referendum has died aged 69. Regardless of my own views on him, he was the man that nearly did it and should be remembered for that. RIP and my thoughts to his family.

"The 2014 Scottish referendum for independence sparked a revival of political debate in streets and homes across the country..."
Ten years on? We need #Indyref2 though London doesn't want to let us go.

CW: Scottish Politics
As has been highlighted by others, the behaviour of the Scottish Conservatives in ScotParl these past few days has been incredibly unedifying and the cheering on of a possible attempt to block the legislation in Westminster really shows what the Tories think of Scotland and the Parliament which serves it.
The Tories have not won an majority at an election in Scotland for nearly six decades. King Charles was 7 years old when a majority in Scotland last voted for a Tory government. Something the UK Tory govt must be aware of is just how much damage an attempt to block this legislation will do to the notion that the UK is a modern functioning democracy. It would undermine the constitutional settlement and put the very notion of devolution at risk.
I’d say to the UK government that should they seek to intervene and attempt to block this legislation, they will be the authors of the fall of the union as we know it. It will be nigh impossible for this charade to continue as-is and for many this overstep will signal the beginning of the end for the union. The impact will be so much more than simply removing or arresting the effect of a piece of legislation, it will lay bare the fractures within the very foundations of the union and constitutional settlement.
The people of Scotland vote for who represents them at their parliament and by virtue of securing a majority, the SNP and the Scottish Greens have the right to move forward to realise their respective manifesto commitments galvanised by their mandate.
Scotland turned a corner today and while this legislation is historic and signals a fundamental change and progression in Scotland, the work here is far from finished. The legislation doesn’t go far enough and doesn’t help or empower non-binary people.
The Tories will always find a way to attempt to stymie progression and seek to assemble barriers in the way of societal progress unless such progress serves them or those who bankroll or have an interest in their party.
For Scotland to be the forward-thinking, progressive and caring beacon it can be, the full levers of power need to rest with its national parliament and the people of Scotland should be the architects of their own future. Decisions affecting Scotland should be taken in Scotland.

There was such a wonderful atmosphere in Edinburgh that night. Sigh.

For the first time in the history, Westminster has outright vetoed a Scottish law passed by the Scottish Parliament.
Only 11 out of #Labour's 175 MPs voted to defend Scottish democracy tonight.
The Tories will see this as the first step in reducing the power of the #ScottishParliament.

After the last decade of dependence, missed opportunities and betrayal, here's a short extract from Lockhart of Carnwath's memoirs of the Union. It was Lockhart who named and shamed Burns' Parcel of Rogues, and uncovered the mostly quite paltry amounts they received for selling out Scotland.
Here he speaks of one of the principal villains, the Earl of Stair.
Very little has changed in the last 300+ years.

So it looks as if Kate Forbes - in addition to her regressive conservative social views - is also vying to be the anti-green/let’s just wreck the environment candidate. What future do people like Forbes think they are creating? Even if her half-baked plans for independence were to come to fruition, what is the point if she insists on killing off the environment in which this independent Scotland is meant to thrive?

You are claiming one rather unlikely event will be made even less likely by another two even less probable (at least in the short term) events occurring
Both #scottishIndependence and #irishReunification are very long-haul projects - they should get there eventually on current trajectory, but not anytime soon. I doubt the current #SNP attempt to turn a UK/Holyrood election into a #indyRef will work
Sorry!
