You can be assured if the rally had had a poor turn-out they would have been all over it.

Aye! Listen! You will not hear Humza Yousaf say a single word about how he intends to restore Scotland's independence. Because he has no intention of restoring Scotland's independence. His 'big idea' is to beg permission from the British state to do what we have an absolute and

We’re not allowed to strike, protest or be sick. We’re given pay rises below inflation every year, our tax allowances have been frozen for years, our physical, mental & social care have been destroyed. The national debt is off the chart. WTF is going on here?

At a time when everything is unaffordable and the NHS is collapsing under a waiting list of 7.6 million and we are at the brink of World War III and the Tories can’t go two days without a sex scandal, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has identified the solution to our

Man in combats appears to try & drive a car into independence marchers: thenational.scot/news/24267465.… The British State is in the process of mobilising its boot boys with sectarian marches all over Scotland. Is this another example of British intimidation of peaceful democrats?

Gillian Martin Why won’t Yousaf stand down on Monday & take the route to independence laid out in this article by Wings Over Scotland ?
