Our @ScotGovFM uses the economic crisis caused by Covid & Russias illegal war in Ukraine 2 ‘shame’ the UK’s economic performance & claim #Scexit would be preferable 2 Brexit & that we’d be economically better of, with no guarantee, out of our U.K. 1/5 Image
Where’s the plan showing the level of borrowing required 2 maintain essential services like our police & our NHS? Where’s the huge cuts required 2 put our deficit into a place the EU would consider as a joining position? Where’s the admission we’d be SIGNIFICANTLY poorer? 2/5 ImageImageImage
The claim that the current blip in oil prices due 2 the war can fund a £20Bn investment fund topped up by yet more borrowing is incredulous! How much from oil? When? What will our borrowing rate % be as a NEW state with Sterlingisation as a ‘currency’ (note no EU again)? 3/5 Image
The reality is, & she’s never properly pressed on this, our current spending choices & priorities mean we’ve spent £272bn more than we earned since devolution. That’s an £11bn ave deficit on £52.5Bn ave income, 8% of ave GDP. She needs 2 find £7Bn ave savings pa, how? 4/5 Image
Reality is there’s no way we can leave our U.K. & expect 2 be better off for generations, if ever. No way we can join the EU with our deficit level & no currency. No way we could ‘perform’ as a divided society with anything less than 60% + support, it’s not happening #SNPOut 5/5 Image
(Full FT article by our @ScotGovFM ft.com/content/a8b86e…).
There really are no words to describe utter stupidity. I also can’t understand why #nuppets think people who live in & love Scotland & are & ProUK do not believe in Scotland. What we don’t believe in is economic fantasy & the we are better 💩 Image

#Covid Update Fri 10/3/21. (Wkly data W/b 26/2/21). ScotDeaths 9,880 not 7,461. SNHS devolved, why didn't we invest in/buy Vaccines? Scotland no better than rUK, Testing worse, Care Home Deaths worse, Vaccinations slowing again post pick up. Remember the UK help we've received.
Vaccinations 1
Was Sturgeon aware/is she staying quiet about our world-beating UK-led vaccine investment & purchases? Didn't she have a clue or was she banking on our UK sharing & support while she plots UK destruction? Has she even said thank you for Vaccination supplies & Help?
Vaccinations 2
Inc weekly detail, are there supply problems? No data available at all.

MSPs approve Scotland's controversial hate crime law: It was passed by 82 votes to 32 a day later than expected, after MSPs ran out of time on Wednesday while debating a raft of amendments. Bloody disgrace. #SNPOut bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…
Yusaf said: He said: "To those who think they may accidentally somehow fall foul of the law... because they believe sex is immutable, or they believe an adult man cannot become a female or they campaign for the rights of Palestinians...
...or those that proselytise that same-sex relationships are sinful, none of these people would fall foul of the stirring up of hatred offence for solely stating their belief - even if they did so in a robust manner.

In the middle of a pandemic, when our economy is ailing & under threat, when our drug deaths (& homeless deaths) are way more than England's when our education system & standards are falling, with all our other issues, @theSNP is spending time & money whinging about Brexit. ImageImageImage
An appalling document full of lies/misinformation/misdirection, adding nothing 2 previous diatribes on the same subject & is obviously nationalist propaganda. @scotgov & @ScotParl should be ashamed. @GOVUK @UKGovScotland @10DowningStreet @ScotSecofState @michaelgove @BorisJohnson ImageImageImage
It's about time we, the UK (& @GOVUK) took these nationalists to task for their failings & dereliction of duty as a political party & a devolved administration. They only have #Scexit as their real & overriding focus to the detriment of everything else! ImageImageImage
