1918: Ireland elects a majority of Sinn Féin MPs, 73/105, pledged to set up an independent parliament. Westminster ignores Dáil Éireann, then bans it.
2026: #Scotland elects yet another majority of pro-indy MSPs, who vote by 72—55 for a 2nd #indyref. Just as they promised. Within hours, an anonymous Downing Street spokesman says "no". A faceless no.
After 108 years, #UKgov still doesn't get this democracy thing.
Can anyone go to London SW1 with a large #cluebat?

Today, #Starmer made 2 appointments to the UK cabinet. Both ministers are on their 3rd govt job in <2 years.
James Murray was Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury for 14 months, then Chief Secretary to the Treasury for 8½ months. Now Health Secretary.
Lucy Rigby was Solicitor General for 12 months, then Economic Secretary to the Treasury for 8½ months, now Chief Secretary.

#UKgov says #OllyRobbins overruled UK Security Vetting, and gave Peter Mandelson #DevelopedVetting status, without telling ministers what #UKSV found. So they fired Robbins. See e.g. The Guardian: https://archive.ph/sMAc9
Such deceit of ministers would end the career of any civil servant. But the govt story is that Robbins as head of the #ForeignOffice went completely rogue to tell ministers what they wanted to hear about a political appointment of top diplomat. Not credible.
