Pro-independence for Scotland and any other peoples that want it. Doing my little bit to push this agenda along. Here for comment not argument. It's nice to be nice, so trolls, name-callers and rude people will be blocked.
EXCLUSIVE: Black Scottish workers have called on both governments to take a 'zero-tolerance approach' against far-right politicians 'spreading lies and hatred' about migrants
No human is illegal. Scotland must always remain a welcoming country for migrants and refugees. 💚🏴
Why would the Orange Order need to march down a largely nationalist road? No prizes for the obvious answer.
Next logical step for the US after public executions streamed to the populations is trial by combat. Who'd have thunk the US would putrefy so quickly.
It would be a shame if this Racist Thug’s real face was circulated far and wide.
Every day, the SNP as the Scottish Government acts as a shield, protecting the people of Scotland from the worst fallout of Westminster’s short-sighted choices. https://www.snp.org/scotland-one-of-safest-places-in-world-say-bbc/
Scotland ‘one of safest places in world’, say BBC — Scottish National Party
The evidence on justice is in, the results are clear, and the conclusion is inescapable: Scotland makes better decisions when Scotland decides for itself.

EXCLUSIVE: An SNP councillor is looking to ban a new far right group dubbed 'Scotland’s version' of the Patriot Platform from holding military-style training sessions on Glasgow Green 🗣️ 'This is a rather pathetic uniformed attempt to transmit some kind of power'

Natalie Bennett, Green member of the House of Lords, pledges to use her position to keep speaking up for Scotland's right to self-determination
So Badenoch vows to fight the SNP "for our union". What does she mean by "our"? Well, the Tories haven't been voted in by Scotland for over 70 years and the people do not have a majority wanting to remove powers from Holyrood. So "our" union means "England's" union. It's a colonialist point of view.
The quickest, sanest method for the US to return to some kind of stable footing, international respect and rejuvenated economy is for the first post-Trump administration to immediately *undo* every single action and piece of legislation implemented by its mad king.

'For all its linguistic shifts, Labour continues to deny ‘genocide’, not just as a terminological denial. It protects the UK’s relationship with Israel and the USA, and Labour ministers responsible for previous pro-genocide policies.' Martin Shaw via Byline Times

I see BBC Scotland, and the anti-independence press, all of whom made a huge song and dance about Gordon Brown's Vow in 2014, aren't too bothered that the Tories - one of the signatories of the Vow - have just ripped it up and now want to strip powers from Holyrood.

Listening to Farage's Kerr in the EU debate in Parliament today, it's clear he has no interest in our Parliament or in working constructively on anything it does. Like all his right wing colleagues, he fails to understand the concept of representative democracy. His priority is purely to disrupt.
This is what makes Israel the biggest pariah state in the world. Ben Gvir deserves to be in prison. But antisemitism innit. Roll on the day that the right wing in Israel is defeated and a political solution becomes even a remote possibility for Palestinians.
Standing Together@standing-together.bsky.social · 4d agoAt 4 a.m. today, Israeli forces raided a five-story building in Al-Tur, East Jerusalem, forced Palestinian families out with barely anything in their hands, and demolished 10 apartments — leaving around 70 Palestinians without their homes.
