Wings Over Scotland

Hello… *waves*

Are you back? Staying for good?pls!

oh how good it was to see that email pop into the inbox today. There’s so many times in the past 2 weeks I’ve said to myself “where’s Stu’s take on this/that/the other (new pronouns?)
I totally got why you needed to take a step back, and with all the dark shadows hanging over bloggers who actually publish stuff NOT IN THE MSM….. well, it’s a scary time to be putting your fingers onto the keyboard. Reminiscent of the days of secret printers churning out papers to enlighten the people about the sleekit goings on when the Union was forced upon us…. nothing much has changed really… sadly. Those who will not see, simply will not see… But those of us who do see, and listen, and learn, will keep on sharing out the unsavoury things which otherwise would slip on by. Haste ye back Stu.

A very happy surprise

thankstu

you were right as usual

nothing has changed

newSNP have parked indy again

och weel, back to the drink & drugs

Even if it’s only now and then rev it’s a huge boost to see you back these on pages.

PhilM

hah, thats my middle name

southern shandy sipper

I have a wee question having listened to the Baroness about the bill for childcare – are we allowed to call a man a man or do we have to call them something more descriptive?? ( I have thought of a few but most of them are not repeatable)

Not sure if you’re set on challenging Frank Sinatra’s record for comebacks, Rev, but one thing’s certain – we’ve never been in greater need of fighters for freedom of expression. In how it treats dissident bloggers, Scotland’s becoming like Belarus. Something I cover in my latest post, with a brief reference to yourself:

Actually, that was the link for my post exposing the real agenda behind the SNP-Green co-operation agreement/Sturgeon survival plan.
Here’s the link to my post about on the Scottish blogosphere:

@Fi, 10.25

That’s just what I was thinking. Thanks for that comment.

All I am seeing at present is the surface. I miss Stuart’s insight on what’s going on underneath.

Got my fix

How soon do you think that Nicola will run out of road to keep kicking the can down?

That shows how a politics show should and could be done. Slick and no wasting of time with waffle. Whatever your thoughts on the former first minister there is no denying he is very good at his job.

Good to have you back albeit maybe briefly.
I enjoy reading the posts on here. A lot I may disagree with but they do give food for thought nevertheless. Especially when you compare with the dross that is written on the BBC HYS forums, which funnily, the BBC never open one for any real controversial issues.
The Scots who have the ability to think for themselves need you Stu.

Nice to know you’re still there in background stu, you’ve insights have been sorely missed,
We now definitely have a very clear picture of NS and her cohorts,
But is there any rumblings of a push back from other SNPs,
?
Or are they all tarred with the same brush, mostly scared of losing their wage packets., and to scared to go against the boss and her hubby, who are running Scotland like imperial majesty’s and in a mafia style,, where it’s of with “YE OLD HEAD” should any one dissent.
How can we resurrect that enthusiasm for independence if when ever we start making plans , covid is used like a weapon to keep everyone away from each other?
Your site was like an Scottish umbilical cord during covid lockdowns for those whom needed reassurance we were all still here,
That you and you’re bloggers / we the commenters here we’re so deliberately attacked with ( vile abuse by trolls and infiltraters ) They should by rights have been rendered useless as hate crime against the Scottish people as a race of indigenous people. As there was no evidence they were behaving the same to other people in other countries.
What’s the use of the hate crime bill in Scotland if you can not turn it to your best advantage, didn’t R Spears fall foul on her own spear? No pun intended.

If not Alex Salmond and ALBA, then who else is there to challenge Sturgeon?

She can fk about with Independence with the same contempt for urgency and constitutional illiteracy she’s shown all along, and that does seem to be the plan, so where does the real Independence Movement now invest itself?

What an absolute scunner to be standing on the very brink of Independence, when the Union has never been weaker, yet wedging herself between Scotland and freedom is an absolute fking charlatan, dug in like a tick, passing off Scotland’s hunger for Independence as a adoration for her miserable self and her “genius” handling of COVID.

A word of caution folks. Nothing has changed that I can see. Rev Stu said there’d be an occasional post or cartoon to stop the chat going stale… but I think you’re maybe premature to say the Rev’s got the gloves back on…

Kinda hope cartoons and the Alex Salmond show do become regular features, just to keep the gears oiled and visitors ticking over…

Can I suggest the following to keep Stu busy and productive during his sabbatical:-
Produce a book for universal distribution covering the fate of Scottish owned businesses which have been taken over and disappeared south of the border since say the end of WW2.

I see it as being as much a collation exercise for Stu with details of businesses affected being submitted by Wings readers with as much info as possible re each business, no. of jobs lost and the assets ‘cashed’ in and removed south.
Stu’s job would be to verify facts, classify industries/businesses and expand on them where relevant.

The resultant book would be a real eye-opener when readers see just to what extent Scotland used to be self sufficient compared to the present day situation with convoys of lorries driving up the M74- not just the lost jobs and disappeared assets.

Don’t rush people. Just a Sunday League amateur, giving us his bitter critique of Lionel Messi and telling him where he went wrong.

Excellent news WoS is back. Nice one!

I have a smile on my face – a really nice surprise to read your blog today – thankyou.

AS is the most astute politician in the UK today.

I’m shocked that Glasgow is still in level 5 while Clackmannanshire , which has a higher rate is allowed to stay in level 2.

Anybody think she might try and put Forth Valley into Level 3 around June 23/24th just in time to stop the AUOB Bannockburn March?

Breeks like the comparison of she/her to ‘a tick dug in’ – loathesome thought.

Even the English Baroness Claire Fox knows that Sturgeon the Betrayer has no intentions of holding an indyref.

Brexit and the awful trade deals that will destroy Scotland’s economy, and the damage they will do will allow Sturgeon the Betrayer, to say that we can’t leave the union until we see an economic recovery.

In reality there cannot be a recovery without independence, and the Betrayer knows that.

Her argument was if you are so vague about a referendum you can’t claim the election result to be a mandate.
Which is fair enough.

Her most important point was

Tories simply won’t afford a referendum they just wont give one.

Ruby.

In reality none of this matters, it doesn’t matter what an English Baroness thinks, nor does it matter that Johnson will never agree to issue a S30.

What matter is that Sturgeon the Betrayer will never name a date for an indyref let alone hold one. We don’t need England’s permission to level this awful union, we only need an FM that’s not a treacherous b*stard.

@Republicofscotland 2:06pm

Agreed.

That’s better Don,
Any wrongdoers should be brought to book.

Keep it up and resist the urge to have a go at Scotland and her inhabitants.

How lovely to see a post!

I do hope you come back (but only when or if you feel ready). This week feels like the start of the end for Nicola – her erratic and paranoid behaviour is drawing comment, and though it doesn’t change much at the moment, the unravelling should be worth seeing. Despite the election result there’s an air of the final months of Margaret Thatcher about her and her bunker cabinet of crawlers.

That said it always gets worse before it gets better, lol.

Good to see this post, but i still need some proof of life!
Mugshot, with todays paper visible please.
😉

Great to see you back Rev Stu.

Like all of us we are sorely disappointed at the election result. But we are by no means out. I have striven for independence nearly all my adult life and was a member of the SNP for nearly forty years.

I have trod streets, canvassed, delivered leaflets, held branch offices, stood as a candidate and latterly saw the fruits of our success with the return of the Scottish Parliament, and then an SNP Government.

But oh how in the success have we fallen. A rotten party with rotten leadership and a lost way. So yes, I feel down about where we may be today. But you know what, those huge AOUB marches, the enthusiasm of the referendum campaign, the elation of the resumption in 1999 of the Scots Parliament, comfort me that we are still on our journey and that we will secure independence.

So will I give up. No, not a bit of it. And neither will many others too.

So good to see you back Rev Stu. Everyone needs a rest. But like Alex Salmond, I know the dream for you will never die.

So posting the weekly Alex and Tasmina show, or a Chris Cairns toon, or maybe something by guest posters may hopefully be the way whilst you recuperate.

So let me say this. It is your life. You have given the independence movement huge support. Over ten years in fact with Wings. You are owed a huge debt of gratitude. Wings, or should I say you, created a huge readership. It was hugely influential. So hopefully the blog will continue.

You don’t need to do it all yourself. But our movement needs blogs like Wings. Yes there are others but Wings set the trend. So look at other models. You founded this thing . A thing which I notice today has attracted over 1.054,000 comments, against 5,871 posts. Yes a debt of gratitude owed by many to you and hopefully your time out will facilitate a model that can let you continue but without the prior intensity that would have buckled a lesser man of the cloth.

Captain Yossarian,
This has been a conversation with family and friends over the last few decades.
There has been less and less accountability and more and more self preservation.

Of course, many people can expect more from their politicians the reality is that they will, in the main, be disappointed.

Rev come on come back we need you. Scotland needs you. Your readers need you. Politics needs you. Scottish politics needs you. Will it help if we say you were totally right about everything. We misses you….I need my helping of wos goddamit I’m having withdrawals

Breastplate

Remember the Westminster expenses scandal? Wasn’t that long ago. A number of MP’s went to jail and it was all because of I-pads, TV’s, duck-ponds and all the rest of it. I remember one of them, Keith Vaz I think it was, was stiffed for ordering cushions for his chairs at home. £500/each they were.

All stood-up at Holyrood and said it would never ever happen here and we all believed it.

Now we’re attempting to frame political oponents and spending literally millions trying, unsuccessfully, to do it. The FM attends an Inquiry with £500 shoes on and denies everything. The Lord Advocate denies everything too: ‘My law officers are all scrupulously honest’.

Hey you.

Two very interesting interviews. As an interviewer, Salmond has an easy knack of actually allowing his interviewees to speak & the ability to ask relevant follow-up questions – something of a professional disadvantage in the current media environment.

I’ve always found Claire Fox quite the paradox – she’s espoused views and positions I loathe instinctively, but I also know she’s no daft and, in her analysis, has an uncomfortable capacity to zero in on inconvenient truths. Quite simply, there is no incentive (or indeed, mandate) for the UK Tory Government to grant a Section 30 in this parliamentary term; unless it was to call Nicola Sturgeons’s bluff.

It’s telling from Angus Brendan MacNeil that Westminster Tories are somewhat nonplussed at the post-election radio silence from the Scottish Government, but, of course, it shouldn’t be to anyone who’s been watching.

Over a few depressing few days, it was bleakly amusing to watch the collective UK media trying to cover themselves after casting the Scottish election results as THE big story and that the SNP would immediately be ramping up demands for a second referendum. Only to end up pretty much where we were – with the SNP short of an overall majority (to some relief for the SNP) – in stasis & stalemate. The dog that didn’t bite. Cummings was dead right about media groupthink.

Till next time, whenever that may be. Enjoy the May(ish) weather.

@James Che –

I tweeted earlier, tongue-in-cheek, that Glasgow is being punished because it outed itself as a Yes city in 2014.

What was that other place that bucked the trend and voted ‘Yes’ overall?

Oh aye…Dundee, wasn’t it?

Great set of interviews from Alex there.

Ive always enjoyed the show. I think the best thing about this one was the knowing smiles between Alex and Angus at the end. What are they up to??? Something exciting I hope.

Nicola be raging that Angus goes on Alex’s show. She’s pathetic. And she read out the names of 38 naughty snp folk who’ve been expunged from the party for their connections with Alba! You need to read this for the juicy details link to yoursforscotlandcom.wordpress.com

Rev Stuart Campbell I heartily ENDORSE all the positive comments being put to you sir , and agree wholeheartedly with your reasoning for withdrawing from the fray albeit hopefully temporarily , that reasoning that we will all be marking time and rehashing all the old arguments while sturgeon basks in her unearned empty victory although that being the exact MO of PayPal Paul is not comparable or applicable to your forensic investigating skills

As is evidenced by the very many comments heralding and applauding your small post it SHOULD be apparent to you and anyone else who believes in independence and who frequents WOS that your absence is NOT ONLY giving breathing space and succour to the lying conniving scum it has cut down on the exposure (eg green msp’s breaching covid rules in pubs) being widely reported

WOS, YOUR CREATION is NOT only a site which supports Scotland’s independence , it is a beacon of truth and honesty , it is an alternative to the FAILED and failing 4th estate of MSM and broadcasters who are BETRAYING Scotland and Scots with their lies , it is a political educational forum which has enlightened and encouraged people to search for and expose the lies and corruption within politics , it is independent and outspoken , hated but NEVER wrong , it is a community of individual souls who don’t always agree with each other but have the REAL interests of our country and countrymen at our heart , and the UNFORTUNATE thing for you MR WINGS is that you are the HEART of that community , you are the tip of the spear for independence, without your intrepid quest for truth and your dedication our spear is severely blunted

What i’m trying to say is you’ve been missed , BTW all the writing up above is the truth

BBC Newcastle radio presenter Lisa Shaw 44,has died of a blood clot shortly after receiving the Astra Zeneka ” vaccine” which everyone knows is a gene therapy experiment.

Yo, Rev! Hope you’re enjoying your ‘break’ 😉

Good to see ya, so to speak… 🙂

Ian. I haven’t seen today’s UK column yet. Brian Gerrish has given an hours worth of evidence to the Lawyer Reiner Feulmich. Having capable people fighting for us gives me hope. Have a good day.

So the cossetted royal parasites Willie and Katie, held secret meetings with Gordon Brown, Alistair Carmichael (a proven liar) and Sturgeon the Betrayer.

I have a feeling that we’re about to be further sold out by Sturgeon, Carmichael and Brown to barter the deal, the royals present to give consent from mummy aka auld Lizzie, and the dirty deed will be done.

Weird comment is it supposed to be a joke?

Why would you think Stu would enjoy sh*t weather with a haar so thick that Arthur’s Seat has disappeared?

Every day I clicka da link, hoping but really knowing you won’t be there Stu

And today you were

Thank you Lord, or whoever is up there

Please stay – she of the high heels and pronouns is getting even worse, her megalomania knows no bounds and I don’t think I can face the fight alone

Today was a good day to clicka da link

So good to receive this e-Mail.
Been raging at Westminster news-
Boris ill advised to let someone else pay an unjustified fortune
to decorate a tax payers flat in Downing St?

He has broken the ministerial code in doing so, he lied in parliament
when saying that he paid for it but rules don’t apply to corrupt Tories.

Matt Hancock broke the ministerial code in not declaring his, and his families,
shares in a company he gave an NHS contract to.

The investigator, no doubt a Tory with a dodgy PPE contract declares he only
broke the code a wee bit, so it doesn’t count? FFS.

There will be a free celebration drink down his local tonight if his landlord is still
in there after he received an NHS PPE contract.

I think Westminster should now rename blatant political corruption It Doesn’t Count!

This is a very weird article be Brian Wilson in the Scotsman.

He states

“However, I do sympathise with the requirement to investigate every complaint about a tweet which has caused offence to someone. The line between offensiveness and potential criminality may be fine but most of us know it when we see it.”

I would bet Brian Wilson & most of us haven’t a clue what constitutes criminality & offensiveness.

Judging by the very little I’ve read about the HCB her comment is most definitely a crime.

” Pandemic Podcast” on YouTube is worth a look for freedom fighters. The episode “Whistle blowing on the” overrun” featuring former nurse Kirsty Miller who gives the game away on NHS Tayside is eye opening. Be quick because YouTube takes a lot of that stuff down. Anyone who thinks people should be censored no matter what their politics are is asking to live in the Soviet Union.

Haar is one of those weird BBC Scotland terms that I’ve never heard a non weather lady say.

Hi Pixywine at 8:42 pm.

You typed,
“Haar is one of those weird BBC Scotland terms that I’ve never heard a non weather lady say.”

It is NOT a “weird BBC Scotland term”. It is an occurrence well known around the Tay Estuary. We, Dundonians, use it in our everyday speech.

haar |h??|
noun
a cold sea fog on the east coast of England or Scotland.

There are some cracking pics on social media of haar rolling up the Tay and engulfing the Tay Bridges, whilst the sky above is bright blue.

@cirsium (8.48) –

Thanks for that link.

No, I haven’t seen it before, am watching it right now, approx 20 mins in.

Oh yeah you would love Stu to disappear.

I keep wondering what stats you’d have come up with by now, on stickering-convictions, custody suite occupancy in Glasgow, Stonewall diversity champion companies & their cancellations…

So many FOI requests that would make interesting reading.

And one day I’d love to see network/flow charts, showing connections between folk. For political arrests in Scotland. And for the whole stitch up. And for the GRA self-ID business.

Shareable visual graphics of these networks could be fascinating. Especially if the mysteriously non-targeted similar characters were also included as the double standards are incredible.

“I would have thought everybody knows what haar is”

Naebody haes tae ken ony o oor Scots langage tae bi a heid bummer in Scotlan. Thon’s hoo we hiv an Anglophone elite hegemony wha aye maks oor ain Scots langage duffie (i.e. inferior), an oor fowk an aw.

Aye, haar is a guid Scots wird an aw.

Whaur’s oor Scots Langage Act, Nicola? Oor human richt tae lairn oor ain braw Scots langage! An oor ain langage whit gies us oor verra naitional identity, an oor naitional consciousness, withoot thon we widnae seek independence.

I’d heard of the haar before I worked in Aberdoom and thought it was just a wee bit of mist.

Fuck me, it is John Carpenter’s “The FOG”. I remember working in Dyce, in August, temperature about 25C (honest).

Lived in King Street i.e. close to the beach. Drove home, temperature dropped by more than 10C. Sun disappeared, could literally see the haar sitting maybe 4 metres above the ground as I drove into it.

The haar is definitely real, and properly Scottish. It’s like a depressing version of the Aurora. But still weirdly impressive!

For those who value the right to street protest be very afraid of the new Police Powers Bill going through Westminster. We have trials ahead of us.

I cancelled my SNP membership at my bank last thursday, no more 5 quid a year from me lol
However on the brightside/rightside I had joined Alba, quite happy to give them my 1 quid a month for membership. and If I was a younger man, with what I have seen lately, namely my intelligence being insulted by the SNP and greens, I would stand for Alba at my local council level in any form whatsoever and work to get rid of these imposters that have ruined the SNP for the forseeable future.
The true independence party called Alba will go from strength to strength and in my humble opinion will become the dominant force in a scottish independent country with the re/emergence of a true scottish Labour and conservative party structure away from their former bosses at westminster, as for the SNP, I predict oblivion for them in an independent scotland, and if that happens as I think it will, it will be a sad day for us all, as we built that party up, and sturgeon the imposter and her career criminals have turned into a joke and a woke party, the real scots have long memories and we are just biding our time for now

Alba for ever

Alba will not be named anything else but Alba, but what I meant to say, was that they will be an honest version of what the scottish branch of the labour party should have been.
A people’s party with its own constitution that prevents any crooks and criminals ever gaining control in scotland again

“as they currently do” – in the SNP, I meant.

David Caledonia says:

Alba for me will become the Labour Party in Scotland and I truly believe that will become a reality in time

I kinda get your drift, but I have no desire to see any vestige of UK politics blighting a new Independent Scotland’s system of government.

You look at UK government with Labour, Tory, Lib Dem etc, it’s Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum polarised garbage. You don’t empower the people by giving them two shit options and rejoicing when they elect the slightly less shitty government. That isn’t choice.

At least in a Scottish context, there’s the SNP providing the population with an opt out, (ok- at least in theory), but then you must consider how the notion of a political party like the SNP has allowed charlatans and carpetbaggers to wear the Party badge and carve out a career for themselves when they don’t actually give a flying fk what the Party stands for. It’s the nature of political parties which allows that to happen.

Political Parties dumb down the political discourse to the extent that some people will vote based upon nothing more than a choice of colour between red or blue. And who can blame them, or criticise them, because fundamentally, both Labour and Tory are just two cheeks of the same arse, and the crooks and spivs will still get away with their “crooking” and “spivving” no matter who is in power.

I’m not sure what the answer is. There is something inherently weak about a system of government which needs to dumb down and simplify complex issues into binary options so the public can make an emphatic decision. They make a decision on a 5% issue, and get 95% of the shit they didn’t want by inadvertent default. Just look at SNP voters, seduced by the 5% Independence shtick, which will give them the 95% shit in the small print, which will give them Hate Crime Legislation and a Transgender dystopia they didn’t know they were voting for.

There is something weaker still when articulating the respective narratives and setting the political agenda is left to corrupt, rotten, and largely dysfunctional media which fashions itself as the detached and disinterested neutral arbiter, when that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Not withstanding the plundering of Scotland’s resources and exploitation of our people, the Treaty of Union has poisoned and disturbed Scotland’s whole political evolution, by insisting that Scots are fed on a diet of UK politics. There is no more graphic evidence of that than ALBA being airbrushed out of existence despite the dynamic options it might have facilitated.

As Angus MacNeil just reminded us, never mind ALBA, that recent Holyrood Election could have been a plebiscite election which the pro-Independence Parties won. Yet neither that option nor ALBA’s supermajority were discussed on the mainstream media made available to the electorate.

And afterwards? The focus is either the resurgence or ongoing turmoil of the British Parties. Never mind Scotland, did the Tory vote hold up or is the Labour Leader’s job safe? Who gives a fk?

The last thing the UK media wants to broadcast is progressive, dynamic shifts in the tectonic plates of Scottish politics. All they want to broadcast is Scottish Independence succumbing to the dominance of the “main” or “sensible” British Parties, hopefully with optimal derision and humiliation of pro-Independence ideals or narrative. That’s their agenda. That’s why the Establishment won’t tolerate the competition of a Scottish Broadcasting service… it would destroy their monopoly.

Can you imagine how utterly different Scotland’s political agenda will be without the distraction of the presumed ascendency of the “British” view violently distorting our Government, politics, political news, and constructive debate?

Do you think the Norwegian Media couches Norway’s political debate in terms of what Sweden says?
Do you think the former communist states of Eastern Europe still have the Communist point of view promoted in their political discourse and have communist party members automatically included in debating panels?

Why then would Scotland carry forth the concepts of “British” Labour or Tory, and snuggle up with the “nostalgia” of the BBC? These are the toxins that our foreign to our body and don’t belong here.

Born and bred in Aberdeen I was given to understand that the word ‘Haar’ came from the Vikings – along with many other words adopted by Scots.

Ruby @8pm

Reading from the manual we have: ..Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thought crime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it..

Accordingly, when (ahem) authority defines the published expression “we hate UK” as expressing hatred to neither subject nor object (because context presumably), it renders the hate label within the context of hate crime legislation obsolete and suggests the future may yet owe a huge debt of gratitude to the delightful Ms Spears.

29 May 2021 – Update

Summary of Sturgeon’s achievements to progress independence in 6.5 years:

1. 2 years’ supermajority in Westminster of 95% of Scotland’s allocated seats in the UK union parliament totally wasted. Instead of using such historical majority to progress Scotland’s independence, she used it to legitimise the forcing of constitutional abuse of brexit over Scotland, the dismissal of Scotland’s democratic rights, the undermining of Scotland’s popular sovereignty and denying Scotland’ its legitimate right to self determination.

2. 2 years’ majority of 59% of SNP MPs in Westminster wasted. Instead of using that majority to progress Scotland’s independence, she used it to legitimise the breach of the Treaty of Union by allowing a special deal for NI against the economic interests of Scotland, used it to legitimise the power grab in the name of brexit exercised by England MPs over Scotland, used it to legitimise the unlawful rewriting of UK law in order to trash the devolution settlement and declare illegal retrospectively a perfectly legitimate bill, used it to help England force a crap deal brexit over Scotland by England and used it to help England’s ruling elite to continue forcing over Scotland, against international law, England’s ruling classes’ particular interpretation of an international treaty of union, to the detriment of Scotland and with the purpose of England’s ruling class to continue to use and exploit Scotland as a colony for the exclusive benefit of themselves.

3. Deliberate leaving of a perfectly sound 5 year mandate for indyref to expire by continuously and relentlessly kicking the can of indyref down the road, finding or making up obstacles for it as she went along. Examples of this are the infamous fabricated requirement for an S30 when the UK is a union and not a unified country, when if accepted the UK union is a colonial construct where only England rules, in line with the UN charter Sturgeon’s government should have pushed to deliver our right to self determination instead of going against that charter by handing over to England free vetoes to Stop Scotland’s right to self determination, and the use of a pandemic that could have been brought under control if Sturgeon had found the backbone and the will to lock the borders instead of deliberately keeping them open to allow continuously new virus variants to get into Scotland so she could have an excuse to keep us locked down for a whole year.

4. 532 days of another supermajority of 80% in Scotland’s seats in Westminster wasted. Instead of using those MPs over those 532 days to progress Scotland’s independence and to end the union on time to avoid Scotland having to face a brexit it never asked for, never voted for, never gave consent for , Sturgeon has used those MPs for those 532 days to pull the brakes on indyref, legitimise the forcing of brexit over Scotland against Scotland’s will and interests, and to force over Scotland a “internal market bill” designed so England can keep Scotland as a consumer, take over its own markets so it can flood them with England’s produce and foreign produce of low quality results of England’s ruling elite dodgy trade deals, and push Scotland’s farmers and producers out of business. In addition, she has used that time to continue denying Scotland its right to self determination by pretending to demand the lifting of a veto that she, herself, put on the hands of England’s government so they could use it to give her an excuse for not progressing indyref or Scotland’s independence.

5. Five years of a pro indy parliament wasted where instead of delivering the mandate her party was elected on, she endeavoured to do the exact opposite, ultimately, by allowing under her stewardship of the SGov what looks like a political conspiracy to push her predecesor, far more committed that she will ever be to Scotland’s independence, out of front line politics and by unleashing the lord advocate and COPFS to set fear among yes supporters with what seem questionable prosecutions and attempts to derail Keating’s case in the courts so the veto that she handed over to England’s ruling class could remain meaningful to stop Scotland’s democratic and international law rights. In addition, she used her position of power to lead yes voters to waste their list votes to avoid a supermajority of pro indy MSPs, so as to allow unionists to get in Holyrood by the back door and to avoid Alba pressing her to move her procrastinating arse into gear and progress Scotland’s autonomy.

5. 23 days of a new pro-indy parliament wasted. So far we only have more of the same she has given us for the previous 6.5 years: more empty words, more political posturing, more procrastination, more kicking indyref down the road, more deflection, more excuses, more tory blaming for what she is to blame for because after having all the majorities and time she has had it is unthinkable that she has allowed Scotland to be seen in its present position, and no intention whatsoever, even after 6.5 years of being in government and having commanded every possible majority she could have got, to progress Scotland’s autonomy, independence or demanding the exercise of Scotland’s right to self determination in line with international law.

Summary of Sturgeon’s contribution to Scotland’s independence:

Sturgeon has been in power for 2383 days. Over that time, she has commanded

1 majority of SNP in Holyrood for 533 days (inherited from Mr Salmond)
1 absolute majority of 95% SNPs in Westminster for 805 days
1 majority of 56% SNP MPs in Westminster for 916 days
1 absolute majority of 85% SNP MPs in Westminster for 532 days
1 pro indy majority in Holyrood for 5 years
1 pro indy majority in Holyrood for 18 days

And yet, she has achieved NOTHING for Scotland’s independence.

Either this woman is the most wasteful politician in UK’s history, the most incompetent and unable FM Scotland has ever seen, the one that has the biggest contempt for the people of Scotland’s rights and wants, a person that has no sense whatsoever of time and resource management and therefore totally inadequate for the position she is holding, the most wasteful leader the world has ever seen, or this woman is taking us all for a ride and using her time to keep the pro indy movement on a leash on behalf of Westminster.

I leave you to choose what fits best the evidence you have in front of your eyes. But we cannot escape the fact that this lady was given by the people of Scotland everything she could possibly need to progress independence and instead of using it to deliver independence, she has used her time, our majorities and our mandates to deny us independence and to continue putting England’s ruling elite’s interests and those of foreign powers before those of the people of Scotland.

Current figures:

working capital handed over by Scotland to Sturgeon:

2383 days in power
3 Westminter majorities
1 SNP majority in Holyrood
2 pro indy majorities in Holyrood
countless mandates for indyref
more than enough constitutional reasons and breaches of the treaty of union and Scotland’s claim of right to end the union outright 20 times over.

profits Sturgeon has delivered for independence:

ZERO

Anybody in business with such appalling record of achievement and such catalogue of time and resources wasting would have been shown the door a very long time ago and probably sued for losses due to gross misconduct and negligence.

Either this person does not know how to drive the indy car or is deliberately taking the tyres out of it so she can’t remain in the driving seat without risking having to actually drive it. So why do the SNP MPs and MSPS insist in keeping this clearly inadequate for the task individual in the driving seat of our indy car?

ALBA is more needed today than it was before the Holyrood election.

Hammerdoon. There’s no mention of the ” vaccine” being a gene therapy experiment in your linked articles. There’s no mention of the Fascist fusion of pharmaceutical companies and Governments. There’s no mention of the damage and deaths being caused by the “vaccine”. Where are you getting your information? That’s right the BBC sling your hook Government shill.

” her procrastinating arse ” hahaha

Good to see you back Mia .

Sturgeon “has achieved NOTHING for Scotland’s independence.”

Can’t argue with that conclusion.

‘Babble’ seemed an apt description by Cummings.

I’ve just watched that, Dan. Well done.

To anyone who is interested. There is a massive anti lockdown freedom rally going on in London right now.

Imagine the chaos that would ensue in Westminster and Hansard if every UK MP spoke in their broad tongued regional dialect.

Yorkshire MP -“Ee bah gum, the Prime Minister’s made a reet ol’ mess o’ that.”
London MP – “I concur with my learned northern twat, I couldn’t Adam n Eve it, I nearly choked on my jellied eels.”
Glasgow MP – “Awa a dinnae talk pish ya pair o’ fannies, Yorkshire isnnae North, it’s located in the middle of the UK”
Nottingham MP – “Oi! Haggismuncher, did you just mis-attribute Yorkshire as being in the Midlands.”
It kicks off…

TBH if that were to happen I reckon more folk would engage in politics if it emulated the Sri Lankan parliament.

Breeks,

I don’t believe Sturgeon would have had the guts to make 2019 a plebiscite on Independence!

I have my own thoughts as to why Sturgeon is acting against Independence, The biritish state has lots of dirt on her!

She drank from the poisoned chalice, taking the high life but she fears what will be exposed.. They can really damage her, but as long as she does Westminsters bidding, she can have the cars, the status, the pretend power and all that. Unfortunately for her, when she does step out of the limelight, the true light will shine on what she has done! that’s why she feels she has to stay in power,

The british state will serve her up when it suits them best. For now though, what better weapon do they have than to have the leader of the SNP and her so-called husband totally under their control?!

@JimuckMack (1.19) –

Very interesting.

Can I ask where you sourced those figures?

‘What pandemic?
This is one of the greatest crimes ever committed.’

That’s why I think that what is happening with this China China narrative is that its a distraction.

Whatever China did or didn’t do they weren’t the ones fattening the ‘infection’ numbers with PCR ‘tests’ and the obviously fraudulent ‘within 28 days after a test’ death stats. Neither did they work to suppress information on natural immunity boosters such as vitamin D, nor did they try to hide from us the chorus of doctors worldwide who were trying to tell us about how older medicines are being used effectively. They didn’t put sick patients in care homes either. Nor did they push malpractice in hospitals. Its not the Chinese trying to get us to take experimental medical technologies by misinformation, peer pressure and perhaps actual hard coercion

We have a colossal multi-state apparatus of criminal oligarchs, corporations, media, politicians, civil servants, hospital management and doctors, police and many others who we need a proper reckoning with. If you ’77’ twats are reading then that includes you.

The bright side is most of the other stuff that we are being poisoned with in our society comes from the same source.

Lets kill that multi-headed fucking snake.

Nurse, police, doctor, civil servant I don’t care – if you have been involved with this crime and don’t speak out soon you are a fucking enemy of humanity.

Lastly if you happen to read this and think its a bit OTT then please give me directions how I can get to whatever blissfully ignorant little corner of the galaxy you happen to reside in because it isn’t Earth.

@Dan (3.13) –

Thanks.

One would have thought that such data would have been of passing interest to real ‘journalists’…

Ach well, so it goes!

😉

@ Ian Brotherhood

In the middle of a deadly global pandemic, I presume a search of Companies House records would show an increase in economic activity for death industry related businesses.
Has anyone noticed if their local funeral directors and coffin manufacturers are now rocking about in high end designer suits and driving Ferraris and Porsches.

So the medical Apartheid I warned about over a year ago has now come to pass with Government in London giving the go ahead for health passports. That means the non “vaccinated” will not be allowed to buy from shops go to pubs or restaurants or go on holiday. All that for a flu with a 98% survival rate?
The reason the Governments want us all pricked is in order to set up a control grid with vaccination the piss poor premise. Stop being distracted by village politics. Alec Salmond is buying covid “pandemics”. I wonder if he sees the big picture?

Belaargh. They are NOT vaccines. They are Gene therapy experiments and you know it bitch

Ruby. Don’t you have Independence or some such to win?

Haar haar haar. Can’t do Howling smiley faces

” They are NOT vaccines. They are Gene therapy experiments and you know it bitch”

🙂 🙂

“The vaccines approved for use in the UK have met strict standards of safety, quality and effectiveness set out by the independent Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
Any COVID-19 vaccine that is approved must go through all the clinical trials and safety checks all other licensed medicines go through. The MHRA follows international standards of safety.”
