“Since last Monday, we have seen a significant increase in the donations received from party members. Indeed, as of yesterday, we raised £25,000 in just over a week – far beyond the level we would ordinarily see outwith an election period.”

John Swinney's message to readers - how we're improving the SNP

AS everyone will by now know, the SNP has been the victim of a crime – the embezzlement of more than £400,000 by our former chief executive Peter…

2/2 That is certainly the dream of England. It's why they refuse us the right to vote now. They can not afford to lose us. Instead we are treated as 2nd or 3rd class citizens in our own country, and it's been ingrained for so fucking long that there are Scots who accept it as normal.

2/2 acknowledge that democracy has a place in Scotland unless it is that which is allowed us by WM What passes for "democracy" in Scotland is ring-fenced, sanctioned, & dictated by whomever occupies English power.

1/2 Much is made by WM of Scotlands bid for Independence, with traction based around the concept of our wanting to "break apart the UK" & the subsequent refusal by WM to sanction a referendum. In reality, this is a refusal to Cont.

2/2 Nothing exemplifies the solid reasoning for an Independent Scotland than to escape the above. To be able to address crisis on our own, rather than letting another, often incompetent, government dragging us down behind them. It's a reason why Scottish independence is an absolute necessity.

1/2 An oft aired excuse for Westminster's refusal to allow a 2nd referendum is that of the perma-crisis-chaos that pervades our society, & in particular WM. That a solitary Scotland will not be protected from the daily crisis facing WM, repeatedly of their own making. Cont.

3/3 They close down debate. They deny our voice. They refuse us a vote, claiming we agreed that it was "once in a generation." They attack our democratic institutions and policies. They view everything through an anglocentric prism, where everything filters down the rapacious maw that is London.

2/3 They could argue, that of course, Scotland could be a successful European country like Ireland, Holland, Malta, or Belgium. However, they could state, here are the myriad reasons that it would benefit Scotland to stay within the Union’ But they don’t. Cont.

If this were a healthy, and equal political union working for those it disingenuously purports to represent, then it would welcome healthy political discourse. It would welcome the opportunity to argue the pros and cons of unionism and independence. Cont.

He’s been rejected by the Scottish voters 12 times. 5 attempts for Westminster and 7 attempts for Holyrood. If it wasn’t for D’Hondt we’d have heard the last of him back in 2001. The regional list has saved his bacon 7 times. He can’t even get elected as leader of his own party🤣

Everyone know what GB loses when Scotland leaves to become a normal independent country. The unionists never admit to it. Until they get caught doing just that. Please spread. #Scotland'sfabulouslystrong

I give you Murdo Fraser and his confession of Scotland's unique and vast resources and why the #AngloState can't afford to let us go our own way

Five Scottish election wins in a row, each on a manifesto commitment to independence. The mandate is there and now is the time to act. We should all be encouraging and pushing the SNP and Scottish Greens to take Scotland forward. We can’t rely on words alone this time. 𝗡𝗢 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗔𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚

John Swinney “Before I take my oath, let me pledge that the primary loyalty of the Scottish National Party is to the people of Scotland, in line with the constitutional principle of the sovereignty of the people.”
