I've written a wee blog post about the parlous state of #LocalDemocracy in #Scotland. I've also written to the Dear Leader, John #Swinney, in a slightly more diplomatic tone.

Daily Record & Sunday Mail - Scottish News, Sport, Politics and Celeb news [Unofficial] @[email protected] ·Andy Burnham rules out independence referendum until its 'clear' most Scots want one

That would not seem unreasonable, but I suspect the evidence’ required will be one of those waffly, changes every minute things. Just remember ‘The Vow’. I can not see a unionist PM adhering to it when push comes to shove (as it surely will). But maybe a little hope. We do need to work harder to establish a greater consensus though. 52% in favour (last poll I saw is not good enough) - and they will rely on that.

Malta has 68 local government regions;
Luxembourg has 102;
Iceland has 61;Scotland has 32 (and the #SNP wants even fewer).
What the hell *is* wrong with us?

If it's the #SNP's view that Scotland would be better served with fewer 'local' government entities, isn't the corollary of that be that Britain would be better served by fewer 'national' government entities?

"By failing Grangemouth and attacking ScotWind, Westminster is turning what should be a high-value industrial revolution into an extracted commodity. Proving once again that the current unionist framework cannot deliver a Just Transition."

“Not ambition for gold, or power, or land or all the things that were familiar parts of the human world. Just ambition to be yourself, as big as possible. Not ambition for, but to be.”

Join us live from the SNP Conference 2025 in Aberdeen for the third and final day of the SNP’s 91st Annual National Conference 2025.

The irony won't be lost on most people of a Tory PM calling for national service while he himself is unable to attend a commemoration with other world leaders.
Scotland and Wales can do better.

Good to see John Swinney pointing out the obvious similarities between Keith and the walking lettuce.
"Pork markets" becomes "An energy investment vehicle".

#UK government planning nuclear site in #Scotland - Jack
"The #SNP leader said the Scottish government would not support new nuclear power stations in the country, and was investing in #renewable energy projects."
"Scotland's last nuclear power plant - at #Torness in #EastLothian - is scheduled to be shut down by 2028."
May 16, 2024
"The UK government is planning to build a new #nuclear reactor in #Scotland despite opposition from Holyrood, according to Scottish Secretary Alister Jack.
"He told a House of Lords committee he had asked the UK energy minister to plan for such a site as part of a UK-wide strategy.
"The Conservative minister also called for the Lords to be allowed to scrutinise Scottish laws.
"First Minister John Swinney accused Mr Jack of being a 'menacing behaviour' and said his government would have 'nothing to do with #NuclearPower.'"

Scotland and Wales... know your place!
"But Mr Johnson feared working closely with first ministers could make the UK look like a "mini-EU of four nations".
"That is not, in my view, how devolution is supposed to work," he said."

Devolution is just a bigger prison cell.
You have more room to pace about, you can choose to paint your walls and are allowed a view from the window. However, for Scotland and Wales, prison governor London holds all the keys.
