Good news!

🇬🇧 James McEnaney of ‘The Harold’, writes a SNP bashing article for ‘The Harold’, but as an ‘Education Specialist’ (as opposed to ‘The Harold’ Journalist)

🇬🇧 James then tries to promote his ‘100% correct’ article, but accidentally posts in his own name 🤣

“I am 100% correct” 🤣

*doesn't apply to Scotland, apparently...

“We see no benefit from the fact that Scotland’s got all of the energy but none of the power”

The SNP’s Keith Brown says the UK historically “squandered” wealth generated from oil and gas, and Scotland needs the “power that goes with energy” to ensure it is “used for the proper purposes” 👇

Never forget…

EXCLUSIVE: John Swinney has welcomed a landmark new study showing Scotland’s oil and gas increased measured economic output by almost £1 trillion in today’s prices – but warned that it underlines 'the extent of the missed opportunity to transform our nation'

Men who shout at hotels are not protecting women Far-right groups protest about asylum accommodation in Aberdeen, claiming to be protecting women, but they regularly target women for abuse

Scotland must defend and protect refugees. They are not the problem in our society.

We must repudiate the far right in Scotland. They're the problem.

NEW: Prestwick Airport is not being used by the US to launch strikes on Iran, the UK Government has said

The purpose of the US aircraft which have landed at the Scottish airport remains unclear, with Prestwick limited to offering refuelling support

Two months until Scotland decides.

Stay stuck in broken Brexit Britain, or choose the fresh start of independence.

That wealthier, fairer future for Scotland is possible. On May 7, vote SNP to make it a reality.

This is the human cost

Wes Streeting is taking a pop at the SNP Scottish Government for not giving Palantir access to NHS Scotland.

Wes Streeting can keep his neb out of Scottish politics and his “donors” can piss off back to London.

Energy in Scotland should be free.

Alistair Carmichael MP (Orkney/Shetland LD) on LBC re the number of Bailiffs being used by English Water Companies. He didn’t even mention Scottish Water as a publicly owned comparison. Unionists daren’t talk up Scotland, as it exposes their hypocrisy. Labour’s shame is Sarwar’s problem. Vote SNP🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Who are North2South? The group claiming to patrol the streets to keep women safe

A group of people claiming to patrol the streets at night to keep women safe has hit the headlines after Reform's Scotland leader shared he had joined one of their nightly walks

But who are they? We took a deep dive 👇

An ALLEGED fraud in the SNP(100s of billions less than PPEVIP,HS2)is top news on WM propoganda conduits BBC,sky,in fact ALL MSM,SNP BAD! AND YET a labour members husband is caught SPYING FOR CHINA,against his govt and us,gave her 2 interest free loans,and SILENCE FROM THEM ALL,where's the blue tents

This is a very good poll for the SNP; with a huge lead on both votes. It also shows further evidence of the stalling of Reform UK who had peaked at around 22%.

A classic story of the Scottish cringe from Scots The Mither Tongue - the moment when James Boswell met the Scotophobe Englishman, Dr Samuel Johnson in London. You can listen to me narrating the whole book on Audible. It’s a totally cringe free zone!

Surely alleged spying for China is worth a big blue police tent and staying as the top story more than alleged fraud within the SNP?

Btw, these news shows are being pumped into Scotland as well.

The lack of SNP airtime on UK wide mainstream media is usually excused because they're a Scotland only party, but that doesn't negate the issue that it makes our elections here incredibly unbalanced based solely on this media output.

BREAKING: Scottish Labour MP Joani Reid has resigned the Labour Whip after her husband was arrested on suspicion of spying for China.
