Scotland under the SNP.

Since Nicola Sturgeon became FM, Scotland has descended into an authoritarian nightmare.

English commentators and colleagues may think this is hyperbole…

But is it?

A Short THREAD

One of the first things Nicola Sturgeon did when she became FM was to silence dissent among her rivals and allies in her own party, the SNP.

Seriously, talk out of line and you are toast.

You can bullshit about #indyref but not Chief Mammy.

This view has been described as “Stalinist” by some of our braver journalists.

Transparency and democracy?

Don’t be daft.

Another useful tool in the SNP arsenal is to simply redact reports.

Publish them, yes. But anything important would make the Warren Report blush.

Use any old excuse to keep the juicy stuff from getting out.

Of course you can also delay (like after an election, that’s handy) or censor reports in other ways.

SNP can’t take criticism or poor comparisons so they simply censor or change the metric or in extreme cases withdraw Scotland from the system.

And censorship has been used to at least try to silence journalists who are not rabid, foaming at the mouth, marching, flag waving separatists.

They tried it with Stephen Daisley and more recently with Sarah Smith.

Set the mob on them. The hounds. The cyber twats.

Sturgeon also likes a good cover up.

She didn’t want us to be the first place in Britain to have a Covid hotspot, so the #Nikegate conference in Edinburgh was hushed up.

Let someone else take the heat.

Transparent and open? Don’t make me laugh.

The SNP love secrecy.

For years they haven’t been taking minutes at meetings.

Handy for when you get caught.

Doesn’t that set off alarm bells for anyone?

And even if evidence does exist and you get cornered/caught, why not just shred or delete the said evidence?

No one is going to arrest you or sack you.

Sturgeon’s SNP are infallible. They can do no wrong in the eyes of The Faithful.

Most remarkable of all is £5 BILLION of Covid money was handed out (at least we think it was) by the SNP yet Audit Scotland cannot find a paper trail.

Isn’t this the very definition of corruption or at least incompetence.

No one has been arrested or sacked.

But so what if there was no paper trail? As long as the right people get the money? Right?

Cough.

Wrong.

The SNP have a shady history of only supporting pro independence groups, even charities.

This isn’t normal. This is undemocratic.

Yet if you have links with the SNP, the lads will see you alright.

I’m sure this money was awarded fairly & scrutinised properly, but how can we be sure when the SNP show little accountability and transparency?

Remember the SNP are led by Nicola Sturgeon and her husband is the Chief Executive of the SNP, Peter Murrell.

The SNP is too incestuous. Too much nepotism.

They are authoritarian beyond belief.

What’s next?

It seems the SNP get a pass from the media.

There are many, many more scandals and of course they use lies, myths and conspiracy theories to further the indoctrination of Scots.

Scotland deserves better.
