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.

Andy Burnham rules out independence referendum until its 'clear' most Scots want one

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/andy-burnham-rules-out-independence-37643598

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.

#Burnham #ScottishIndependence #Referendum

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."

Excellent from @BellaCaledonia
This is the energy we need in the Independence movement, not the SNP's lacklustre Holyrood & Westminster offerings:

@maxleibman
Let's hear it for .Scot at 95% - Not just pretty - football following (& failing🫤) kilt wearing, charity giving, alcohol indulging - faces😁
Maybe not a scientifically rigorous, statistically representative sample, but I'm having this as proof positive of our socially conscious, left leaning, Nordic, European outlook on life. #ScottishIndependence

Scottish judge agrees to pause Scottish legal challenge to UK Gov ban on Palestine Action

Lord Young granted a motion from UK Gov to sist (pause) Scottish judicial review of the proscription; the case will not proceed until that in England has run its course.

Scottish courts' deference to London undermines the distinct role of Scotland’s legal system & makes mugs of Scottish citizens

For me, the one thing that #devolution has taught us is: Trying to work with 2 diametrically opposed governments does not work...
