  6. CW: Burnham U-Turn on Indyref Trigger

    Burnham: The criteria for a Scottish independence referendum should be exactly the same as for Northern Ireland.

    Labour Advisor: Um, Prime Minister, that criteria would seem to have been met.

    Burnham: There is no consensus as there was in 2014, so a referendum is off the table.

    The only time for a referendum as far as Unionist parties are concerned, is when they are highly likely to win it.

  8. The London parliament has blocked assisted dying legislation

    In practice this means that is will not get through in Scotland where the Scotland Act gives the Supreme Court the right to hobble much legislation.

    Expect those with money and mobility to be travelling to Switzerland more regularly, often earlier than they would chose and more suicides - of attempted suicides.

  15. “Scots agree with Murray’s no-referendum independence proposal”

    by Skwawkbox with The Canary

    @uk_politics
    @UKLabour

    “Author – and former UK ambassador – Craig Murray put forward a plan in late July 2026 to make Scotland independent of its blighted southern neighbour. Without the Scottish independence referendum that London’s controlling government continues to refuse it. And it seems many Scots like the plan – and so, it seems, does much of the international community”

  16. time for more coffee... ☕ ☕ :flag_scotlandparrot: ☮️ :yes_scotland:

    I believe that #Scotland and the people of Scotland can be better served as an #independent Nation...

    #ScottishIndependence... is the best way of having a progressive country and not have a corrupt #westminster pulling any of our levers of power...

    "the UK is a #VoluntaryUnion" #myar*e

  17. time for coffee... ☕ ☕ :flag_scotlandparrot: ☮️ :yes_scotland:

    beyond time for #Scottishindependence...

    dump #westminster

  18. "Throughout #Murrell’s time at the top, his control was total yet trust in his stewardship was ebbing away. Trust in the SNP will not be regained by the exercise of more control...

    #Swinney could surprise supporters and critics alike by acting to higher democratic standards and volunteering to submit to independent, external scrutiny" -- oor Lesley Riddoch writing in @TheNational

  19. We all know that #ScottishLabour are much closer to the #SNP on policies than they are to #UKLabour. So would it be a good thing for Scotland if SNP/ScotLab were to agree a coalition deal in which:

    1. ScotLab would support the call for #IndyRef2, but would not necessarily campaign for #ScottishIndependence and
    2. ScotLab would get the Cabinet Secretary for Transport, with a remit to nationalise Scotland's buses?

    #ScotPol

  20. @nusher @Geri Explain what you mean about the LibDems? I think it's more likely that you would find support for #ScottishIndependence among #ScottishLabour than among the #LibDems.

  21. The world has gone full radio rental and Trump continually bleats on about how this and that wouldn't have happened on his watch (thanks sleepy creepy Joe). Who remembers this? The interview used to be on YouTube with no baked text over it and the TikTok this thumbnail was got from has been removed. Somebody must have a copy? Please boost; you'll enjoy it if you watch it. Now it occurs to me the young man himself might have wanted to be forgotten. #yesscotland #scottishindependence #lestweforget

  22. @peterabell.scot I don't think the #SNP *can* launch a 'grassroots #ScottishIndependence campaign'. I don't think that after all their fucking about in the past -- e.g. walking off with the #YesScotland website, unilaterally changing the #Yes logo, and so on -- the movement will any longer trust them to do so. And I definitely don't think the movement SHOULD trust them to do so.

    The #SNP is now a parasite on the movement: they have no strategy, just entitlement and ego.

  23. How would it be if the #SNP split into two parties:

    The Technocrats, led by #Swinney, who seek to govern well at #Holyrood but do not contest #Westminster elections; and

    Scotland's Party, led by #Flynn, who campaign for #ScottishIndependence and stand in #Westminster elections but do not contest #Holyrood.

    It does not seem to me that you can be both an incumbent (or aspiring) party of government, and a party of independence, when there is no constitutional path to independence.

  24. 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.

  25. The truth behind Labour's GB Energy.

    Will be a bonanza for private companies that doesn't actually generate its own energy...

    Scotland gets shafted again too. Lies from Anas Sarwar.

  26. Humza #Yousaf isn't a great politician, but he isnae a rubbish politician either, and the #SNP is short of talent at Holyrood. #Swinney would be unwise no tae gie him a cabinet seat; and gien hoo #Yousaf has performed on #Gaza an ither maitters furth o Scotland, it would be guid tae see him in a foreign relations brief.

    If we're aiming for #ScottishIndependence, we need to be developing strong relationships with the rest of Europe and beyond.

  27. The Alba Party was referred to as 'Bluekip' by some. With their only MSP voting yesterday with Tory and Labour in favour of bringing down the SNP/ Green government, it's difficult to see how Alba can rise above its current 1% in the polls.

  29. The Tony Blair Institue gives Yes to Scottish Independence a four-point lead.

    What to make of this? Blair is not renowened for his probity but presumably his researchers are reporting what they found. Also, hardline a hardline Brit nationalist like Blair is harldy going to trumpet a vote for Scottish self-determination.

    More proof that the pro-independence vote is bigger than the SNP's.
