Oil.

Labour plotted to steal it from Scotland, prevented Devo so 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 could have control over it, and when devo did manage to happen almost 20 years later reserved it and all taxation from it to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿.

Still hating Thatcher?

Of course I do but I hate our🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Labour traitors even MORE. There's only one refinery in Scotland, and four in England, and Labour chose NOT to nationalise Grangemouth - despite taking votes to do exactly that.

Scottish Labour lied - and yet we cannot do a recall on them for electoral fraud.

Angus Robertson(culture minister) is not interested in UN articles on the case for Scottish independence through a ruling proving that Scotland is a de facto colony.

IS that his opinion, or that of the SNP? Because that puts under the microscope the SNP's "international recognition of our independence" mantra when the United Nations recognises THE NEED FOR IT in the first place.

But hey careers (and pensions) are made on promises, and then retained by non supply of same.

Ye know for a traitorous lying cunt he isn't wholly wrong, culture should play a bigger part in SGDP.

Would that mean he would agree Broadcasting should be devolved - and Westminster, thus Liebour, lose Legacy JSU power over it?

Fuck naw.

As a lowly MP in the 70s prior to Labour preventing devolution, prior to rigging it when they no longer could, our 1st FM said in Westminster - That which is no disadvantage to England can be devolved.

Proving when Broadcasting was reserved that its a disadvantage if devolved.

The SNP is missing a chance here by not taking reserved broadcasting to the vote in Westminster, especially where the BBC and its licence fee is concerned, and proving whether its a "public" broadcaster or a tax instead which pays for HMG propaganda. Especially right now, when there is consideration by the Labour Govt to create a proper TV tax to replace the "optional" model encompassing non broadcast media like streamers.

The Labour party of the UK is predominately if not dominately an English political party, and "Scottish" Labour legally one of its accounting units not a separate entity or party - able to then "interfere" in what is foreign politics, re by England in Scotland.

@elonmusk The UK Mr Musk is a state, not a country, where Britain is the land mass shared by four nations - and therefore not a single country.

However, of those four nations only two have an international treaty to be the UK, and it between Scotland and England.

The Jubilee Hospital felt they had to call Jackie Ballie a liar, Scottish Rail felt they too had to call out Labour lies..

Its time that the unions did the same while they are still in some sort of public service jobs, including the NHS, British Labour are coming for them soon. The backbone of pretend Scottish Labour relies on the controls it has over the unions, which has conclusively been proven to members of both detriment.

Starmer, Reeves, want to cut public budgets, thus public services, thus jobs within it - directly, or by more privatisation.

Theres a hing aboot pain, its a cunt, especially that which is progressive through life - and where when yer not in it, it means yer toxifying yer body with chemicals is can doon the road pish.

To see cunts complain about free prescriptions, they need a boot in the baws. Theres little in life I am fearful of, or rather scared of morbidly - well noo those bees are conquered, but thats another story for another day.

My fear is being "locked in" as in coma, but awake, and in the kind of pain I have experienced.

Fuck Zombies, thats pure horror.

@ianbhood One only needs to compare working class party Labour being drip drip tookover by a private educated middle class - and betraying the worker class, with its fkn consent, to argue there is no conspiracy theory at all, but historical fact. @ianbhood Many think that an asset is created with them being pro rather than anti establishment, but few fail to realise the ultimate asset is one that knows not that they are.

Unknowingly compromised assets are easy enough to create and spot - the NEC, Youth Group woke, and Sturrels.

Original argument for the Thatcher's sell of of state assets and open markets.

More competition means lower prices to you the consumer.

What really happened - The rich got richer on undervalued state assets via majority shares sold to hedge funds which dumped soon after.

Unionised state owned utils, privatised even further, removing unionised workers.

Taxpayers bought shares in that which they already owned, govt fooled you 2x.

Some of us actually travel outside of Scotland, and see the world without their cap in hand, or demand of mitigation of what is a foreign govt actions.

Thats why broadcasting is reserved, so you dont see it, and why theres a hardon for "ferry fiasco" in our print/broadcast media Theres a game in play about the ferries, which has fuck all really to do with them.

Its about plantationism being ignored, partition being promoted, and independence being denied - possibly even that devolution itself is under threat too.

But yer far too kneejerked to see it.

In order for any Socialist Scot to vote Labour once again - they have to ignore the facts.

Labour are an English neoconservative political party.
Wants uni fees and perscription charges.
Wants to increase privatisation in the NHS.
Its anti EU.
Wants rid of devolution. Planned to steal our oil from 73.
Took us into an illegal war for oil.
Planned to partition us if we became independent, for our oil.
Prevented our independence, for our oil.
Denied us devolution until the no longer could, and then rigged it in the favour of England, for our oil.

If you are the party of independence, seeking international recognition of it, thats arse by tit.

What you need is the same to notice your intent first, and thats done by standing on a manifesto to leave the UK, and a "democratically" elected Holyrood chamber voting ON it. After all Westminster created the electoral franchise FOR Holyrood, including restricting the franchise to PREVENT independence itself its primary reason.

To use it, can hardly be described as anti democratic, or it proves Holyrood, as a national parliament, is anti democratic?

Late 70s, when strikes were endemic, the unions thought a Labour Govt would have their backs - they didnt.

Late 90s, by the time of the next Labour Govt, unions thought they had their backs, they didnt.

Fast forward to today - do the fucking maths, if you cant do the history. By the time of a VONC in 79 Labour had betrayed the Scots and working class repeatedly.

Denying fair pay to its union's strikers, denying Scotland devolution, and planned to partition Scotland, for England, to steal our oil.

Then England decided it wanted a conservative Govt.

1. Force an agreement with the British Govt during PMQ's that the treaties which Scotland is bound to, forming the UK, are still valid.
2. The Scottish Govt, and SNP MPs, both of which have mandates for a referendum demand its supplied. 3. If not supplied, state that these Acts, international treaties have been broken.
4. Approach the UN about its articles on decolonisation that UK is signatory to.
5. UN supervised paper ballot on independence, under its "indigenous" people Articles.
6. International Acceptance.

There's 3 nations in the "United Kingdom", sometimes referred to as "Britain".

Only 2 of which have a "contract", an international treaty to form a "United Kingdom" - England, Scotland.

NI is no nation, its a British partition of one which left it, stolen in other words. Wales, its a colonised country, taken by force historically, then assimilated into being either England, or its new West Midlands.

England, the "ruler nation" of said "UK", which they cannot veto in its modern political demands.

And then there is Scotland - an abused "partner".

Out of almost 200 nations in the world, only 3 have had their national parliaments powers decided for them, by what is mathematically, historically, another nation's parliament and it in that nation's favour.

That Devolution is a modern version of being colonially administered. Its fucking genius tho, where those which defined it can then say the Scottish Govt is failing under the SNP, with the powers they decided for it as poisoned chalices - re Labour, then campaign on that failure they designed as a means of being elected.

This also goes for Tories.

Many Scots dont realise Devolution was delivered to favour a foreign country, not Scotland.

From partially devolved, to reserved matters, what it is is nothing more than a very English and modernised version of colinialism.

Take the NHS, devolved? Is it fuck.
Roads, fuck no. Two very important things to Scots, if we believe its foreign owned and ran press.

NHS is based on the spend in England, thus partially devolved, where taxation which funds it is reserved, doubly so.
