  1. @karochan3 as it has had, consistently, since 2015.

    It hasn't done us any good, and won't do us any good while the #SNP remain douce and couthie and respectable.

    "#Westminster says no" cannot be allowed to be a block on democracy for ever. We're going to need organised resistance -- things like shutting down the cross border electricity interconnectors. Obviously those are things #ScotGov can't do -- but if it can't, it needs to support a civil movement that can.

  2. For those for whom the Gillies Report* or the hearings at the #ScotGov Education, Children and Young People Committee** are too long, this is a really good thematic summary of the findings and evidence.

    The topics and quotes invite reflection, not only at #DundeeUni. It is a bit of a questionnaire of "have you seen this happen?", "have you felt or experienced this?"

  3. @Wen It's kind of late for this. Our #SNP #ScotGov sold out a huge slice of Scotland's renewable resources in the #ScotWind scandal.

    Yes, we need #ScottishIndependence -- but we need a pro-independence party that isn't utter shit, and the SNP isn't it. I'm hoping @ScottishGreens may be, but they're untested as yet.

  4. Additionally, the #SNP #ScotGov are raiding the dismal proceeds they did get from the failed #ScotWind auction for day-to-day spending.

    It's hard to imagine how Scotland's most important strategic asset could have been worse handled.

    You can all guess who I shall NOT be voting for at the next Holyrood election -- and it will be the first Holyrood election ever at which they will not get my constituency vote.

  5. Of course you all already knew that all this shit about #CarbonTrading and #CarbonOffsetting was never about anything but fraud and greed. Of course you were angry about Brewdog et al's theft of land in Scotland, and #ScotGov's complicity in it. But have you thought about the consequences of that for the #GlobalSouth?

    Listen to this and RAGE!

  6. CW: ScotPol; renewable energy

    If I'm understanding @thecommongreen correctly here, #scotgov's mishandling of the #scotwind auction cost every man, woman and child in Scotland over £3,000.

    That's a lot of money.

    Comments, @lornaslater ?

  7. @inotpigeon this is a tragic political betrayal of #Scotland’s interests by #SNP. But where were the @ScottishGreens Ministers in #ScotGov, who should have been standing this up as a #redLine 🛑 for their continued support for this supine @Thesnp #gov?
    #Freeports #greenWashed with a #Green badge are still a race to the bottom in terms of facilitating #corporate #capture and #deregulation of #environment and #workersRights

  8. CW: #SNP #Greenwash #freeports

    @ruskell Mark, where are our @ScottishGreens MSP’s for #MS&F and #HighlandsAndIslands calling out this #SNP nonsense. Not to mention our #Green #Ministers in #ScotGov making this a #RedLine issue to stop 🛑 this betrayal. Are they complicit or naive in buying into the #greenwash #ForthPorts #PortOfCromarty
