  1. It's gone. The #AlbaParty is dead. Deceased. Defunct. It is no more. ❤️

    I had missed the actual day of Alba's demise, recorded by the #ElectoralCommission as 26 March 2026. See search.electoralcommission.org

    Alba never won any seat in any election at any level, but it provided a vehicle for Alex #Salmond, the former First Minister of Scotland and disgraced #sexPest (according to his own lawyer). It was also a hotbed of #transphobia.

    The party of #SleepyCuddles & the #Transphobes is gone.

  4. #SleepyCuddlesAndTheTransphobes — aka the #AlbaParty— continues to entertain its many opponents.

    #Alba's legal battles with former General Secretary #ChrisMcEleny now get a police investigation. Its only MSP has quit, and the party's brightest hope seems to be the massively discredited #TommySheridan, perjurer who wrecked the #ScottishSocialistParty.

    A set of lost deposits will be the last electoral legacy of #Salmond. #popcorn

  6. Anas Sarwar "As first minister I'll publish the Salmond Files that the SNP desperately don't want you to see, will John Swinney promise the same?"

    Five years blocking FOIs.

    What is the SNP hiding?

  8. #AlexSalmond’s niece Christina Hendry has criticised the tribute to the former first minister at the #SNP conference as falling 'far short of what he deserved'.

    It's almost as if #Salmond had done something to piss off the SNP. Like, y'know slagging off his successors, and founding a rival party to stand against them. And groping his staff for #SleepyCuddles.

    But of course none of that ever happened, did it? 😉 That's why Eck's niece is so annoyed. 🙄

  10. An easy contest over who I will believe in this, I'm glad Sturgeon is free to bring the receipts now...

  12. It seems from here .....

    That scottish politics is pretty personal - between #Sturgeon and #Salmond, Forbes and Swinney, Ross & #Yousaf - reminds me of childhood, when - in two different eras & parts of the country my father suffered the cross-fire between feuding colleagues - decades later the same thing happened to a brother

    #england may be politically too right-wing, the inhabitants rather selfish - but Scots can brew up bitter feuds over very little, and keep them cooking for years....

  13. #Salmond pone su precio por salvar la piel de #Yousaf: montar un ‘Junts per Escòcia’ las próximas elecciones y que el independentismo presente un candidato único en cada circunscripción. Como eso implicaría garantizar al menos media docena de escaños al partido de Salmond, que en 2022 sacó un 1,6% de los votos y cuya única diputada es una tránsfuga, en el #SNP les han dicho que tururú. Así que, por ahora, el primer ministro de #Escocia perdería la moción de confianza

  15. Alex Salmond to sue Scottish government again over harassment claims

    theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/n

    Attached Nicola Sturgeon's evidence before an earlier Parliamentary inquiry.

    Will she get away with this in front of a judge? Doubt it.

  17. MP Lisa Cameron defects from #SNP to #Conservatives

    More woes for the #SNP - and it looks like the #tartanTories epithet that #Salmond and #Sturgeon managed to expunge is back...

    Toxicity in their Westminster group - again!

    In #Scotland - vote #SNP get #toriesOut !!!

    The only safe choice left of centre is #labour

  18. The April 5 arrest of Peter Murrell, the Scottish National Party's ... If something was going to push us into a general strike it would be that.

    The SNP’s funding crisis is rooted in a membership decline flowing from the fact that in national and local government, it has imposed brutal cuts on every area of social spending, while also supporting NATO’s war with Russia.
    Scottish National Party in meltdown

    I agree - but the #englishMedia couch it in those terms - I was merely pointing out they are making this error for the second time (the first being when #salmond left ) without any self-reflection

    Having lived in #scotland as a boy back in the late 60s/early 70s I know fine well #scots are a nation and the #uk merely a passport. So no leader cult required - just courage.

    Well I do think it funny that one commentator remarked that when #salmond resigned everyone thought #independence had lost its driver, then goes on to say #sturgeon leaving may leave the #snp project rudderless

    But the project has #scottish nationhood driving it - no need for a leader cult

  23. #ScottishIndependence was never about individuals. Those who said "I just hate that #Salmond" in 2014 and those who think the sun shines out #Sturgeon's arse now both make the same mistake. Whoever ends up leading the SNP will not be the messiah - the people have the power. #CultOfPersonality

  24. Dame Anne Salmond on how badly this government is mismanaging the climate crisis.

    Allowing forestry interests to
    dominate the body set up to review National Environmental Standard for plantation forests is more than an error.

    So is backing down and allowing pine trees to be classed as "Permanent Forest".

    The climate crisis will not be solved by dodgy accounting.
