🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Happy St. Andrew's Day!

📢 @StephenGethins and @NicolaSturgeon are about to start the #VoteSNP rally in St. Andrews, setting out our plans to lock the Tories out of power, escape Brexit and put Scotland's future in Scotland's hands. #GE2019
@StephenGethins @NicolaSturgeon 📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "Our thoughts today are very much with those affected by yesterday’s horrific terrorist attack in London."
📢 @NicolaSturgeon: "We think of all those who sustained injury and, especially, of the families of those who lost their lives.

There are no words that can ease the pain that they are feeling."

📺 Nicola Sturgeon to Andrew Neil: "I want to stop Brexit, but I also want Scotland's future to be in Scotland's hands, which is why I would expect Jeremy Corbyn, in a minority Labour government, to respect the right of the people of Scotland to choose their own future."
NS: "I've set out the position about Scotland's future, but also ending austerity, getting rid of the misery of Universal Credit, more powers for the Scottish Parliament pending independence - these are all policies we would pursue."
NS: "I don't think it's reasonable for any Labour leader or any Westminster politician to say to the SNP, give us support, if they don't support that fundamental principle about Scotland having the right to choose our own future."

Nicola Sturgeon: "For Scotland, the question the #ITVDebate posed is this - why should we be content for either of these men to run our country and shape our future? We can do so much better than that."
NS: "All elections are important but this election really, really matters. At stake is not just the next five years.

The future of Scotland is on the line at this election."
NS: "I doubt there is anyone in Scotland who is not heartily sick of Brexit and the chaos we’ve seen played out at Westminster night after night.

But if Brexit goes ahead, all that will turn out to have just been the warm-up act."

The Citizenship Amendment Bill and NRC Will Together Destroy Our Country

Muslims will bear the brunt, of course, but India’s vast Hindu population will also suffer collateral damage. And all our rights as citizens will have been forever eroded.

#CABProtests
The Citizenship Amendment Bill to grant citizenship to non-Muslim illegal immigrants will be the top electoral issue in 2021 West Bengal and Assam assembly elections. The BJP is hoping to wrest power in West Bengal and a second term in Assam.
The CAB legally just opens a window for acceptance of a group of illegal immigrants as India citizens on the basis of their claim that they fled their parent countries - Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan due to religious persecution.

#Scotland #Scexit & #GE19 Polling update #Thread
Tories continue 2 strengthen their support 2 their highest level yet, with Labour support building again. The SNP has dropped below 40%, this bodes well for Unionist #TacticalVoting & should minimize any claimed SNP seat growth 1/7
The UK national picture shows Tories leading the pack, still outpacing the Labour recovery. Clearly the LibDems & the rest are falling by the wayside. At 43.5% the Tories best month is December & peaking at the critical time. 2/7
In Scotland, we've had the latest #Scexit poll, which shows support for #Scexit still woefully short of nationalists aspirations, with a clear majority of support for our Union & with undecideds falling away, great for the Union. 3/7

Buckle up, kiddos. The first "fair deal" panel is kicking off in the basement of a hall in Edmonton. Some 150 here, give or take. The panellists just took their seats and we're ready to rock 'n' roll. Mute this thread if you don't like good tweets.
I will tweet until my electronics die. Living on the dangerous side.

Oryssia Lennie, the panel chair, thanks everyone for taking the time to come. "We know that some of you are here ... to share your stories, others may be here just to listen, and that is fine."
This comes just hours after a credit downgrade from Moody's and 24 hours after unionists met to talk about a general strike.

Far Left Hate Watch ❌Labour is a racist endeavour
@FarLeftHate
What the referendum has shown me – thread, please add your own tweets to it: 1/11
The referendum has shown me that none of the three major UK parties and very few of our politicians, especially on the #Left either care about or even understand what the real definition of democracy actually is & why we voted to leave the #Left also hates the working class. 2/11
The referendum has shown me Parliament has for too long been allowed to ignore the wishes of the British people and more importantly without any real consequences to them, from expenses to lying under oath there has been one rule for us and a different one for them. 3/11

@StalinIsBack
1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
