Dear God, @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social has become so bad. It is so metro-centric, never having any serious discussion or understanding of what happens in Scotland or Wales. Racism and xenophobia are not legitimate concerns. There is very strong support in Scotland for UK/Scotland re-joining the EU.
How I feel right now about the British/ 🇬🇧English( whatever) political landscape is that some one wrapped in a Union Jack could whack me over the head with a flag pole & the BBC would shove a microphone in my face asking why I provoked the attacker & the Home Sec would invite the attacker for tea .
🟦 We want a Scotland with the confidence and power to make its own decisions. A nation shaped by our needs, ambitions and values, not held back by Westminster’s incompetence. 🏴 That’s the Scotland we believe in. Is it the Scotland you want to help build? www.believeinscotland.org/join_us_opti...

EXCLUSIVE: Andy Burnham has been branded 'the first Prime Minister of England' after his so-called 'listening tour' of the UK completely avoided Scotland

I thought I would share a few photos of the dystopian shithole that is according to the recent BBC documentary as 'No-Go Zone Glasgow'. I love our City, And I am proud of Glasgow and even prouder to describe myself as a Glasweigian. #peoplemakeglasgow #naepasaran

My latest blog piece. BBC Scotland's hit piece on Glasgow tells us a lot more about the agenda of the BBC in Scotland than it does about Glasgow. The BBC's great unmentionable is the link between far right protests, Loyalism & British nationalism. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/08/19/t...
The BBC’s Glasgow hit piece says more about the BBC than Glasgow
I’ve already briefly mentioned BBC Scotland’s disgraceful hit job on Glasgow which was broadcast earlier this week, but it’s worth exploring the issues around the programme in mor…

This is desperate stuff. They really are not reading the room. The more Labour support Zionism, the more they’re despised. Vote Labour; get Netanyahu.

We're f*****, unless the AI bubble bursts - and that's unlikely given governments now relying on them and propping up Data Centres. I bought the same memory (actually faster) last year for £190
Simple question. Let us know what you'd rather have. #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing #RoyalLeeches The royals cost us half a billion per year. Or 18,000 nurses for our NHS, I know which I'd prefer. www.republic.org.uk/half_billion...

The Labour party is attempting to subvert the result of the Holyrood election and impose the Labour Holyrood manifesto Scotland rejected at the ballot box on the country regardless. The British media in Scotland colludes with this brazen electoral theft. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/07/03/l...
Labour’s attempted theft of the Holyrood election is being aided by the media
Something is seriously wrong with democracy in Scotland, but the media has told us vastly more about Peter Murrell’s cruet sets than it has about what can only be described as an attempt by t…

'In the FM elections, Scottish Tory leader Russell Findlay urged the FM to put "country over party" & stop focussing on independence.' Focussing on independence IS putting country first, in fact it's probably the most potent, distilled-down example of putting your country first, ya fuckin' roaster!
What I'm loving is that @lornaslater.bsky.social and now @ross-greer.bsky.social, are both saying they would find it odd if John Swinney didn't push for another independence referendum. They clearly see that a mandate for #ScottishIndependence has been voted for by Scottish people.
Had a dream last night where there was a new series of Blackadder with Blackadder as the UK Ambassador to America, and now feel this needs to be made.
Please explain to me how they can be the royal family of Scotland when the monarch of England doesn't take the Scottish oath? Are you even aware of the complexities involved? ATM the legal position of the union is being challenged at the UN because it's a lie Scotland is a colony not an equal
