Families can’t afford heating or groceries, yet councils are gearing up to hand out ‘golden goodbyes’ and fund lavish events. A brutal snapshot of Council priorities which are completely out of touch with the people who elect them.

KATE FORBES SUPPORTS ANGELA CONSTANCE! Remember when everyone thought she was a highly-principled Christian. Then along came a deal with Swinney 👠👠, she became Deputy FM and got even more £££s. Principles went right out the SNP Gravy Train window!

Scotland’s skint. Services collapsing. Taxes up. And the SNP are handing themselves £1.7 MILLION in gold-plated goodbye cheques for walking away from their own failures — including disgraced Michael Matheson. This isn’t government. It’s a racket.

Sturgeon, Yousaf and Dornan the 3 biggest skivers in Holyrood. Utterly outrageous that taxpayers are being ripped off like this. scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/comment/nicola…

The MV Glen Rosa was ordered in 2015. It was meant to be sailing in 2018. It is now 2025, with completion drifting towards late 2026 or 2027, a 12-year build for a straightforward diesel-electric ferry. No experimental technology. No wartime shortages. No excuses that hold water.

Let us never forget this fundamental truth: The state has no source of money other than the money people earn themselves. If the state wishes to spend more, it can do so only by borrowing your savings or by taxing you more. And it is no good thinking that someone else will

Three Female MSPs were allegedly bugged by colleagues. Holyrood’s solution? A watered-down memo. If this is their idea of accountability, no wonder so many want Holyrood closed down. thescottishsun.co.uk/news/15720170/…

🇬🇧 The Chagos Islands surrender deal MUST BE SCRAPPED Keir Starmer & the Labour government have continually lied to the British people about this act of treachery. The whole process reeks of corruption Prison should await all those involved 🇬🇧

£30k of taxpayers’ cash torched on Swinney’s Indy vanity project — and some days only 28 people bothered to read it. Expensive propaganda, zero public interest, total embarrassment. This is the SNP in a nutshell: burn your money, then pretend it never happened.

Protest Now!

The longer Swinney clings onto Constance the more credibility he loses. She lied. She's broken the trust of victims. She must resign. thescottishsun.co.uk/news/15722521/…

Norway drills the North Sea & gets richer. Britain bans drilling, taxes the industry to death, sacks 1,000 workers a month, then buys the same oil & gas from Norway. Same seabed. Same reservoirs. It’s the dumbest act of economic self-harm imaginable. archive.is/olBvb

🇮🇹 PM MELONI: "THIS YEAR WAS TOUGH, BUT DON'T WORRY, THE UPCOMING WILL BE WORSE" Italy’s prime minister just looked at the calendar, looked at the world, and basically said buckle up. Giorgia Meloni warned that 2025 was rough for everyone, but the year coming next could hit

Ergo #EdMiliband is lying when he says our energy prices are set internationally. If they were we would all be paying the same. UK gas is currently set at 73ppt. The European rate is 28ppt. When are we going to hold this liar to account? #NetZero

Here are the names of the 7 SNP fools who signed a petition for the release of Alaa Abd el-Fattah.

John Swinney is like a limpet sticking to a sinking ship. Clinging on until after 2031 while Scotland’s NHS collapses, schools fail and taxes soar. The SNP isn’t a government anymore — it’s a retirement plan for failed career politicians.

Agent P Sturgeon should be in Jail. Destroying Scottish Covid Inquiry evidence.

The government is an absolute farce. Civil servants at the energy quango NESO hold shares in National Grid! Er .. while running the government’s energy strategy. You couldn’t design a clearer conflict of interest if you tried. Bloody hell.

The SNP have turned welfare into a fraudster’s charter. No checks. No control. Ballooning costs. Then they hike taxes on people who actually work to pay for it.
