Since Nicola Sturgeon resigned Scotland has been subjected to a media feeding frenzy the like of which we've not seen since 2014. No the SNP is not perfect, humans are not perfect, but no one can possibly govern a country better than people who live in that country #independence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳

I just signed a @scotrewilding.bsky.social petition: Scotland Needs a Nature Minister. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/sc...

Absolutely love this.

Drop your ideas into the comments here before noon on Monday. We will announce the names chosen on Tuesday. 3/3

getting to be Prime Minister on the back of 25,000 votes in a by - election, is a travesty of democracy and gives him No Mandate whatsoever to make any decisions about Scotland's constitutional future.

Believe in Scotland That's the message.

The Welsh branch office of UK Labour has suddenly noticed that Westminster's 2018 Internal Market Bill (aka PowerGrab) threatens devolved policies in Wales. Remarkably, many Scots seem oblivious to the fact that Scottish powers have been stripped and other devolved powers overruled. Where were you?

A shocking account of recent betrayals to Scots by tories and labour. They're always in cahoots to keep Scotland under their control.

Farage “draws his power not from the sheer force of his arguments and personality, but increasingly just how recklessly the immigration issue has been handled by the political establishment… there is now a little bit of his poison everywhere” How a country fails. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Good news! Statistics from NHS Education for Scotland follow figures last week showing the number of GPs in Scotland continues to rise with an increase of 171 over the past year.

He's hiding the Epstein files for the same reason he hides his medical records and jobs reports. And it's not because they make him look good.

We’re not going anywhere until the vile unnecessary ‘Guga hunt’ is ended for good.

The industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie was born on this day in 1835. Carnegie funded 3000 libraries around the world. We'd all have been a lot stupider without him. Here's what I wrote about him in 'Cool Scots'. gregmoodie.com/product/cool...

Please help stop the 'Guga hunt' a needless slaughter of Gannet chicks on a remote Scottish island - petitions.parliament.scot/petitions/PE...

what do rich people do with their money? they hide it in tax free islands in the caribbean where it does no one any good at all. what does everyone else do with their money? spend it, into the economy where it goes round supporting shopkeepers, businesses, suppliers and services.

Anas Sarwar can’t decide if he’s for or against the two-child cap - we’re scrapping it in Scotland next March. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Dounreay nuclear power station last produced electricity 30+ years ago, yet decontamination is expected to last until the 2070s and cost £8Bn, with full decontamination of the site estimated to take more than 300 years. Now Westminster wants to build *more* nuclear power stations in Scotland.

when you think Labour have reached the bottom of the barrel, the scrape away at it, and find another level.

I asked google: Are there agreements between Scandinavian countries on areas of mutual interest? Because it's entirely probable that an independent Scotland, Wales & a united Ireland would do the same #independence is not 'separation' but a new better co-operative reality for all

Independence is FOR something, it's not just an end point, an end in itself but a beginning of self government to raise ourselves up and away from the dead hand of Westminster #independence.

No country can reach it's full potential while it's neighbour holds most of the fiscal powers over it,while it's neighbour can prevent it from doing anything it wants by invoking a S35 and while it's neighbour takes it's resources and keeps the taxes from it for itself.Only independence does that.

Keith Brown speech beginning 8.48 to 14.12 reminding us that if same % as voted 1 &2 in 2011 had voted 1 & 2 in 2021, SNP would've won a majority. Also Ann Faulds at 1:21:00 to 1:24:22 laying out the legal reasons for 1 and 2. #SNPConference www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnJm...

a few weeks ago, there was a heavy shower of rain, and I was astonished to see a pigeon on my shed roof, raising each wing in turn and facing into the rain to wash it's underwing oxters! Never underestimate a pigeon, exemplary hygiene. #BirdsOfBluesky #Birds #Ornothology

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

quick trip to RSPB Loch Leven. A shy red squirrel, a wood brown butterfly and thousands of pink-footed geese. A fantastic autumn spectacle. Photos don't do it justice, and the sound of their arrivals.. Amazing. #birdsofbluesky #birds #ornothology

Why would anyone want to give Farage's Reform any power? It's poison.

With their limited powers and finance the @snp.org Scottish Government step in to save jobs in Falkirk 👏 news.stv.tv/scotland/ale...

Brexit was the visible start of the decline of the UK State to today's moral vacuums in both traditional parties of government. The only way to stop Farage from sweeping up from a cynical population is to introduce Proportional Representation which would At A Stroke, stop Farage from winning.

While Westminster is in chaos, your SNP Scottish Government is delivering progress. ✅ Cheaper rail fares ✅ More NHS operations ✅ More GPs and paramedics ✅ Funding to build 36,000 more affordable homes. ✅ Measures against the genocide in Gaza. And that’s just this week alone. Join us: snp.org/join

Labour politicians, just like conservative politicians. Always on the take. Scotland, let's go and leave them to it.
