Scotland’s Most Frightened
This was just two months ago. (Longer version here.)
And we’ll bet you anything you like he’s already wishing he hadn’t said it.
Because a recent study suggested that Swinney might just achieve the impossible task he set for himself, and if he does then he’s REALLY screwed.
Now, we don’t actually think that’ll happen – the study makes a lot of assumptions with very little real-world basis – but on current polling the SNP are so far ahead on the constituency vote that it’s not outwith the bounds of imagination. And we think might have made him think he’s this guy:
But in the “John Wick” series, every Herculean feat that Keanu Reeves’ troubled protagonist pulls off to get out of a tough spot just leaves him in even deeper trouble and facing an even harder one. And right now, John Swinney is living in the same sort of nightmare as mob boss Viggo Tarasov.
(As played with masterfully weary fatalism above by Mikael Nyqvist, confronting the consequences of the actions of Tarasov’s idiot son Iosef, who in this analogy is either Humza Yousaf or Anas Sarwar, we’re not quite sure which.)
The worst thing in the world that could possibly happen to Swinney is that the SNP do indeed achieve that single-party majority. Because if they do, he’s all out of excuses.
In January he left himself with no wiggle room whatsoever.
KIERAN ANDREWS: “So you can guarantee 100%, then, if there’s an SNP majority there will be a referendum?“
SWINNEY: “Yes.”
And that’s a promise he has no power whatsoever to keep. David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have all previously dismissed the SNP’s indignant claims of a moral mandate for another indyref, all made on the basis of just under 49% of the vote, so Keir Starmer will definitely (and rightly) give him short shrift for demanding one on the basis of 32% or so.
(Because previously they said all “pro-indy” votes counted, but this time they’ve been absolutely explicit that it’s only SNP ones.)
And then Swinney (and indeed all his idiot apologists) will have to turn to expectant SNP voters and say “Ehm, well, actually that was complete bullshit I was feeding you, but hold tight for five more years and we’ll have another go in 2031. Trust me!”
And readers, we’d almost vote SNP ourselves just to see that happen. But Swinney has two months left to sabotage the chances of it, so let’s watch and see what he does. He might end up wishing Peter Murrell had had to appear in court after all.
Ha ha, you stole my line: “Are you saying we should vote SNP1 just for the bant?”
The dream shall never die.
But Swinney’s wish might prove to be his nightmare.
The wheels on the bus go round and round…
All day long.
How does the progress being made with the UN C-24 application tie in with this?
No referendum will ever be required when the UN rules that Scotland is a colony.
That ruling must occur within the next 5-year HR term.
If by some miracle there is a referendum, and indy wins, I sometimes wonder if we would be forced to regard it as merely an expression of colonialism that should be ignored.
Even in the extremely unlikely event that the UN agrees with you there will still need to be a referendum.
I remember the days on here when if anybody had a negative comment about the SNP there were sarcastic cries of “SNP Baaaaad” and “yoon”.
Who was right?
Those were the days of the Alex Salmond led SNP, which was genuinely pro-independence.
What followed has been the SNP led by the biggest betrayers in Scottish history.
If the PM was to grant dunderhead a referendum he’d only F*ck it up.
John does nothing for me apart from coming across as a man who constantly has a grin on his face and is completely bold. Dull to listen too, irritating to watch and his answers to question are stale, he drains the life out of the audience he addresses.
No I won’t be voting for the SNP nor the greens.
Well, fortune favours the bold. Don’t know so much about the bald…..
That’s a really interesting take on the situation. It seems like Swinney is facing some serious pressure right now.
Don’t you just love those missiles slamming into anything Iranian. Yum yum.
The knock-off Shaheds being sent in their direction carry a heavily ironic punch.
High explosive karma for 4 years supplying the Orcs to further their murderous, imperialist, colonialist ambitions.
Sweet.
The daddy of post colonial theocracy is Toast.
Between allowing the US to use UK airbases to attack Iran and shooting down an Iranian drone over Jordan, over 350 miles from Cyprus, Keir Starmer has firmly put the UK including Scotland into a Middle East War ! This war has been concocted to cover up Donald Trump’s part in the Epstein Islands, the UK was not informed before hand ? was it ? In any case Scotland did not get a say one way or the other, but Scotland will pay for it in cash and blood. Remember when voting in the Scottish Elections your first vote is SNP (holding your nose is not obligatory). Your second vote which the SNP have wasted 1 million votes for 2 MSPs TWICE ! expect you to help them to do this for a third time and waste another million yes a million votes for 2 list seats, that is exactly the status quo and all the Tory MSP squatters will waltz back into Holyrood where their seats will still be warm. To hell with the status quo use your second vote for Scottish based Independence Parties and kick the snug Tory charlatans out of their cozy seats. No more Foreign Wars for Scotland and Scots, Scotland a Nuclear Free Independent Country ???????? Enough is Enough, End London Rule !
“put the UK including Scotland into a Middle East War”
You need to pay better attention. The fatwa has already been issued.
Every obedient Iranian and every obedient co-religionist walking Scotland’s streets tonight is in that war.
That means you are too.
Most UK casualties of this war will be non-military “soft” targets going about their daily lives on streets much like the one you live on.
You need to wake the fuck up.
They have been trying to kill us since 1979.
“They have been trying to kill us since 1979.”
Says who? MI5? Daily Mail? Daily Sport?
The cants at airport security who make us take half our clothes off and go through our baggage with devices capable of detecting explosives or their chemical precursors.
“Flight data shows that in the week leading up to the US and Israel’s attack on Iran, 24 US military planes landed at Prestwick Airport – some of which came directly from Israel.
“That is a significant increase in American military activity at an airport owned by the Scottish Government. We now know this was in preparation for their bombing campaign against Iran.
And now Mr Swiney has lost a candidate as Ms Sally Donald withdraws from the May elections whilst the subject of an investigation into an allegation of false claims in relation to Adult Disability Allowance.
Oh dear, how sad, never mind.
We need another Barbie to take her place.
Is there a Barbie in the house? Actually, yes, and she’s overdue to post on this new thread.
That will put the fear of God into the Leftwing activists.
Explains why they always cover their faces and refuse to debate. Their benefits will be stopped.
And nobody “Yes Voter” with half a brain believes him.
I’ll tell you who believes Swinney the one’s making a living out of pretending to support Independence when they don’t.
I am far from convinced with the polling projections. I suspect that the curent SNP will really strugle to win a single seat in rural constituencies anywhere in Scotland. Even a decent SNP will now strugle to win a constituency seat in rural Scotland. I live in the north of Scotland and the number of people who have moved up here from England over the last few years is an issue and the rate at which they are moving up here seems to be accelerating. There are large areas of the Highlands and Islands where RUK unionists incomers are now in the majority. Tactical voting with the help of the BBC, the P+J, and all the other unionist owned local media news outlets will insure the SNP do not win seats and Swinney knows it.
Are you having a laugh?
“RUK unionists incomers are now in the majority”
Why do you continue to insist that yoons won’t vote for the SNP, when the SNP is clearly a unionist party?
Been saying that since Sturgeon was first minister all the faux grievances with Westminster is just to keep the sheep on board we need to rid Holyrood of this corrupt unionist party
Let us be clear about who is responsible for the conflagration in the Middle East: the pantomime horse USRAEL, certainly.
But Marco Rubio of that horse’s ‘head’ let the cat out of the bag: the attack was driven by the horse’s arse. Its leader, BB Yahoo, needs to win an election in a few months to stay out of jail.
He has led by the nose his partner-in-crime, (that son of Scotland, Dòmhnall Iain Trump) and bounced him into this disaster. The Great Deal-Maker had to pretend to be at least co-leader to avoid the perception of ‘follower’- a loser’s image.
So far, the only winner is BB.
Those wannabes on here who echo the cheers led on this “war by and for the Epstein Class” (Robin McAlpine) should read the Reuters report on CIA misgivings of barely a week ago:
Exclusive: Prior to Iran attacks, CIA assessed Khamenei could be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed, sources say | Reuters
I am eerily reminded of the (ignored) warnings by MI5 to Blair of terrorist blowback in 2002/03. Subsequent events more than vindicate the Security Service’s analysis then.
On a earlier thread another poster gave an excellent link to an Unherd piece (see below) to how counterproductive USRAEL’s strategy will be. The murder of Khameini will actually strengthen the more hardline factions in Iran.
Many of our keyboard heroes posting here know a bit of Arabic- at least the word fatwa . How many know that Ayatollah Khameini issued a fatwa against the production of a nuclear weapon? What price the survival of that fatwa following
USRAEL’s assassination of its author? Has USRAEL shot itself in the foot- or in the head?
link to unherd.com
Having read this alongside McAlpine’s remarks comparing Swinney and Starmer, I conclude that Robin is too soft on Swinney and hard on Starmer. Alongside our first minister, the Prime Minister appears by comparison an historic and towering statesman of European diplomacy, in the mould of Cardinal Richelieu or Prince Metternich.
Deal with it, Cynicus, they’re not going to be herded, two by two, into the gas chambers a second time.
Good to see a virtue signalling stalwart of freedom and progressive values, a self-identifying bonnie fechter for independence, getting right back into the victim blaming they first broke out just over 4 years ago, when the Orcs swarmed into their former colony.
“Have you seen what this is doing to my bills? Why won’t they just DIE?” went the bleaters then.
And goes the bleating again today from the same people.
A great many of the Local Newspapers in the North and North East are now owned by an English Earl who is a tax exile in the Isle Of Man.
The SNP in Moray have also saddled us with a she/her candidate as well. I think that as many as one third if not more of the traditional SNP vote will just stay at home and not vote at all. Well they wont vote for the English NAZI Reform Party or that NAZI Restore mob – that will be the English Yoon White Settlers doing that.

That is very encouraging! I hope your optimism is vindicated with help from genuine supporters Scottish independence who recognise that step one to progressing that end is to get rid of the rotten and corrupt SNP.

He already has the excuse lined up. The war in Iran. Which England is dragging Scotland into. Now is not the time, England will say. Swinney will meekly agree and job done.
‘And then Swinney (and indeed all his idiot apologists) will have to turn to expectant SNP voters and say “Ehm, well, actually that was complete bullshit I was feeding you, but hold tight for five more years and we’ll have another go in 2031. Trust me!”’

Hilarious skewering of The Undertaker currently minding the shop of SNP devo-Unionism. A fine companion piece to the grimmer analysis of Robin McAlpine:
“Swinney is betraying everything the SNP stands for”
Robin reminds us that the Swinney tried to sign up the SNP for Blair’s War in 2003. He links that to The Undertaker’s Starmeresque failure to condemn the new monstrous and illegal attack on Iran.
With pinpoint (ha!) accuracy he denounces.,
“a war by and for the Epstein Class, in ways more literal than you might imagine. It’s biggest public cheerleaders (senior US and Isr?el figures)”
On Swinney, who kow-tows to the Epstein class on matters of the Scottish economy and rip -off inward investment, He concludes,
“I would vote a hundred times for a man of principle I disagreed with rather than a man who has no principle.”
Me too.
#No Votes SNP
link to robinmcalpine.org
“Me too”
I guess talk is cheap.
I guess we’ll wait a long time to discover the “man of principle” you intend to vote for.
“condemn the new monstrous and illegal attack”
Perhaps you’d like to list the previous monstrous and illegal attacks you’ve condemned. Over the past 5 years, say, to help alert readers determine if your calls for principles are intended to apply to yourself.
Or just everybody else.
If you buy into the leftist, ‘woke’, ‘post colonial’, ‘white bad’, ‘we should all pay for slavery’ mindset, you might be right that this attack on Iran is illegal in international law, but you will miss why it was always going to come to this state of affairs the minute the first Ayatollah set foot back in Iran.
The regime in Iran has murdered hundreds of thousands more people (its own citizens) than the Israelis have done in Gaza, yet no one is out on the streets of the UK and Scotland demonstrating about that. Why? Because it’s not one of the virtue-signalling good causes that the hard of thinking adhere to and demonstrate for – as we can see from the equal lack of interest in the thousands dying in Nigeria, Sudan, Yemen, Congo and elsewhere.
Why? Because Israel is not involved in those other mass killings and because it has no right in the eyes of many to even defend itself. Does that mean that Gaza was not a slaughterhouse? Of course not. It does mean, however, that Israel (with America) is the Satan du jour of the hard left, while other perpetrators of mass killings, such as the clerics of Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Boko Haram, ISIS, the Taliban and others are feted and afforded the status of ‘underdog’.
The hypocrisy is so blatant that so many appear unable to spot it in themselves. I have heard people actually say that it is no wonder the Middle East and Africa are such a swamp of massacres – all because the whiteys are interfering and want their oil and minerals. Well, those points might well be true, but in no way did the whiteys bring this about because no one over here in any way encouraged the Ayatollahs, or anyone else, to murder their own populations. They manage to do that all by themselves.
I asked the question further up: what would happen if Iran, as it is, actually developed a nuclear weapon? It would have the absolute ascendancy in the Islamic world, wouldn’t it, and isn’t it Shi’ite? What about the Sunnis? Saudi is a Sunni state. Iran is firing rockets at all the Sunni states in the Gulf; it is firing rockets, and its proxies have been firing rockets, at Israel, for decades. Does anyone in their right mind believe that the Ayatollahs would have refrained from engulfing the Middle East in war if they had a nuclear weapon to threaten everyone, as well. So, why do you think, apart from oil and minerals, would both Israel and America attack Iran? If Iran developed a nuclear weapon, as I have said before, Saudi or Egypt, but, probably, Saudi, would have to be given a nuclear programme to rebalance the Middle East.
AMERICA IS EVIL, root and branch.
No more mealymouthed verbiage.
Live by the sword, die by the sword, TURABDIN.
There’s not one single Scot who hasn’t been adversely affected by the Mad Mullahs over the past 30 years. Everything from shuffling in your socks, holding up your beltless trousers to get through security at airports, to seeing your hard-earned wages being taxed to spy on you because Scotland is hoaching with crazed jihadists.
I won’t even begin to detail the Brits in hiding because of death sentences pronounced on them, or the Brits mourning the slaughter of their loved ones in some random, depraved, terrorist frenzy.
If I’m the only Scot heartily sick and tired after 30 years of Islamist terror, then so be it. But I don’t think I am.
I think I’m in the long suffering, silent majority.
And no, this isn’t about revenge. It’s about removing the technological capacity to export death around the world from the people who have made that their life’s work.
The world will be a better place once they’re no longer in it.
The favoured domain of the «sociopath» is politics.
No one ought to be allowed to enter the field before first being assessed for the usual symptoms.
It would be much easier to get rid of politics altogether i think.
The Arabophone world is stacked with the type, they are the «go to» for western imperialism which is the reason for so much distress in the region. The western powers do not care what happens in that world, until now so detached from their own, jihadism is the inevitable backlash of frustration, a jihadism which ineluctably they will come to know first hand.
The scorpion does not enjoy being toyed with, a lesson rational small boys soon learn.
The only explanation of “the plan” I’ve found so far:
link to unherd.com
It has a certain superficial plausibility to it.
And it’s immensely refreshing to read an analysis that goes beyond the “orange man baaad” point at which so many other observers like to halt.
On a different subject, seeing as how Scotland’s most famous half son is single-handedly changing the course of world history, why isn’t Scotland making more of the connection? Why isn’t there a Trump visitor centre on Lewis and a Trump Trail around Tong?
Millions of dollars potential tourist income lost every year because Scots prefer to greet into their drams, rather than show some entrepreneurial spark.
Heck, I bet the Great Man would put up 10 million bucks to fund it in a heartbeat! Probably throw in an airport and golf course too.
Swinney could win a referendum, he could also make as many excuses as he likes not to hold it.
I’d never trust Scotland or our future in the SNP hands.
and EVIL’s spawn.

Reckon Mr Swinney might benefit from reading this.
Statecraft….phew!
What’s your solution, then, TURABDIN?
We’ve already tried letting every one who can escape the shitholes come here.
We pretended to ourselves they would leave their tribalism behind and renounce their generations-old implacable enmities. Purely out of gratitude for us letting them live in peace and security, with generous helpings of free-on-demand benefits on the side, paid for by good old whitey.
And guess what, we were suckered, as we now see as Arabic chanters march on our streets, our cities fill with No-Go areas, and our taxes are hiked to pay for the extended families we can’t afford for ourselves.
John, everything thing you fear and hate is because you and your friends got exactly the politicians you wanted into power for the last half a century.
Your representatives have ensured that every policy, every law change and every war has facilitated the exact things you rail against now.
It is your own fault that you do not like what you live, it is your own fault that you do not like what you see, it is your own fault you do not like who you live amongst, it is your own fault that you do not like what your country has become and it is your own fault that you believe that repeating all the same mistakes will deliver your own particular Shangri-La.
The Conservatives and New Labour are one and the same with different colour ties, two cheeks of the same arse.
They, Milton Friedman and the Chicago School of Politics, have been in charge since 1979 and what they love is an overabundance of cheap labour, even if it has to be shipped in.
You have gotten, exactly, what you voted for.
The only person you should be blaming is yourself.
The solution?
STOP ILLEGALLY INVADING OTHER COUNTRIES.
Simples.
Then people won’t be forced to move. They’ll be more than happy to stay where they are. They don’t need yer fake propaganda yer there to liberate them as you overthrow governments to usher in a tyrants with paid warring factions to protect him while you parasites pillage & thieve from their countries. Not for your benefit but for their own.
“The solution?
STOP ILLEGALLY INVADING OTHER COUNTRIES.
Simples”
I find myself on the horns of a dilemma.
Is it flattering or insulting that Geri seems to have concluded she’s debating with Tony Blair?
Actually, a third option is possible. Is it deeply troubling to witness how low care in the community has sunk?
The English keep voting for these parasites.
They’re lazy, they don’t even get off their arse & threaten to physically remove them parliament .
The working class in this country could bring the country to a standstill if they really wanted to. They don’t want to & they’re as thick as fck too cause they believe Reform is the answer to their prayers. It isn’t. Its just the same regurgitated shite repackaged & sent forth to bamboozle the dim.
Be more like Spain. Go tell all the mentalist evangelical Zs & Dews who are trying to bring about Armageddon cause they’re religious nutters – to go fck themselves. Yer not playing suicide.
Instead the English grovel like spineless dickheads & cheer on the missiles.
“Be more like Spain”
In early 2026, Spain agreed to unilaterally grant legal residence and work permits to approximately 500,000 undocumented migrants, starting April 2026.
Sure, Geri, be more like Spain.
Quick question: Any chance of you ever declaring your true allegiance? There’s no way it can be to Scotland and the Scots.
Ah, the preposterous Swinney; the man who would be king, and his own court jester all at once; the humourless joker in the pack; the egregore of Scottish mundanity embodied in a suit of plain human cloth, and not a hint of plaid; the pale, and alas not terrible, Vlad McDracul feeding on the life blood of drowsy Scotland and the sleeping Scots; the meek and whispered Scottish croak of England; the cludgie-stane of Scotland’s destiny; the banner of hopeless; the emblem of subjugate; the sigil of oppress, the symbol of Scotland’s whine, the lickspittle haun-lickin creatur o Westminster.
It would be nice if Swinney modelled his public persona on the fictional John Wick and kept his mouth shut 99% of the time; not that he’d be a better leader because of it… but it would make his ‘leadership’ of Scotland a tiny bit more bearable.
I feel like swearing today.
To swear or not to swear, that is the rhetorical fucking question.
Not a lot of folk know that there are at least sixteen types of rhetorical question – those ancients, eh? That’s whit haen nae telly daes tae folk.
Shakespeare’s rhetorical question is also a pleonasm, as is my pleonastic potty-mouthed (hehehe) version, but pleonasms are not for Thursdays… Sundays, perhaps, are more fitting days for pleonasm.
Wheesht, Northy, that carpet has been gnawed to threads.
There’s a plush new carpet on the flair, 100% acrylic, with a thick nylon and polyester backing.

You’ll be able to chew that ane fer days. Mind and drink plenty of water tae wash it doon!
War?
What war?
I see no war.
I see only the insane murdering each other with their flying or swimming bang-toys… and randomly murdering any other folk they happen upon or get in their way.
The word ‘war’ lends a kind of undeserved dignity to the barbarous killing of human beings we witness in America’s last stumbling swagger aboot the planet before its empire finally dies.
There’s a kind of stoical Humphrey Bogart courage and doughty British righteousness to the idea of war as remembered through the lens of last century’s second world yin.
Not this current, televised show-war, tho.
This one looks more like a punch-up between a bunch of disgruntled and drooling medication-deprived inmates scrapping it out in the corridors of a crumbling asylum; an asylum where Nurse Ratched is one of the patients… and Jack Nicholson and his friend Chief Bromden are nowhere to be found.
Bully boys but with dangerous toys. I think I would prefer the word ‘ambush’ to gracing it with the word war.
I also want to know why so many nations have allowed American bases on their land – apparently 750 of them in 80 countries.
Russia has 20.
The SNP used to do everything to promote and achieve independence. Now, They do everything to avoid it.
Parcel of rogues in a nation!
INDEPENDENCE is a good, but a good that in a deeply troubled & divided world imposes responsibilities that the current crop of politicians may not have the requisite skills & intelligence to handle. It does seem to be a massive problem even for the so called «nation-state» leaders.
Headless chickenitis is catching.
“the current crop of politicians may not have the requisite skills & intelligence to handle”
Maybe aye, maybe naw.
I see little evidence the current crop of voters possess enough common sense and maturity to handle unpleasant truths.
The fundamental truth that the majority of voters won’t face is that there is no combination of future events that avoids most of us getting a heck of a lot poorer.
Which is why the sellers of snake oil, both on the left and on the right, are seeing so much popularity from their messages, which roughly summarised amount to “Vote for me and YOU AND YOUR TRIBE will get richer, because I’ll take money from the OTHER TRIBES”.
Distilled essence of Guardian BTL thought, as has been imbibed daily for decades by the socialist faithful.

That so? These people sound like what we would call colonialists on here.
Happy to be proved wrong. Maybe they’re self-sacrificing missionaries bringing The Light and The Truth to the heathens.
But probably not.
“Who started this?”
To be fair, I would say the Romans.
To be unfair (and why not?), the First Caliphate also has a lot to answer for.
I guess it all depends on how far back into the Ancient Guff you want to delve.

Thanks for that personal knowledge. It beats a Channel 4 vox pop hands down.
Is the growing Anti-American mood among Qatari citizens (who, I understand, I don’t number more than 10% of the population)? Or the population generally, including incomers.?
John Swinney says he will hold another referendum only because he is sure that the SNP will not have a majority, and, if he has to sabotage things, if things look as if they might deliver a majority, he will find another cause like Sturgeon’s to ensure that nothing happens on that front. Power is what the SNP is all about, and hanging on to it, so, assuming no majority is reached, he will ally with the Greens again or run a minority government. Not everything the SNP does is bad, but allying with the Greens will ensure that madness a la Scotch continues: ‘trans’ and queer ideology; net zero; and open borders.
This may well be an illegal war in the sense that it has not been sanctioned by the UN, but think about it. Had Iran been allowed to continue its proxy terrorism and to also continue its nuclear programme at the same time, what could have been the likely outcome? Well, imagine that a nuclear weapons system had been built in Iran, how would the world have coped with that, given the Ayatollahs propensity for exporting terror, especially in the Middle East?
For starters, it would have declared its intention to wipe out Israel, and no one would be in a position to stop them because, you know, that nuclear arsenal. So, what would the West have done? They would have given the nuclear programme to Saudi because they would have had no choice. Iran is majority Shi’ite, while Saudi is majority Sunni. Few in the West get that these two factions of Islam are deep-rooted antagonists, so a war in the region would be more than likely.
If we are serious about wanting an independent Scotland, we are going to have to become far more pragmatic than we are. All this hard left ‘woke-dokey’ nonsense is going to have to stop. The English-hating is also going to have to stop. We will be entering a very different geopolitical world than we have been used to, and realism and pragmatism will have to come to the fore. Whether we like it or not, England will be our ally in future, as will the rest (mostly) of the West. The rest of the world, we will have to negotiate with as events arise and start understanding grown-up politics.

An interesting story.
I’m genuinely curious to know the percentage of UK nuclear families – Da, Ma, two kids – who have £40,000 surplus cash at their disposal.
Perhaps some number cruncher could work out how long the average UK nuclear family has to work and save to put together 40 big ones.
Compare and contrast with our government, who will happily gift it to crims “just like that”.
“our government” ?
For the colonized it is never ‘our’ government.
I thought you would still be mourning the elimination of the father of post colonial theocracy. From my reckoning you still have 33 days left of crying and slamming your chest with your fist.
Surely, for the colonised, it is always “our” government?
It’s the post colonised for whom it isn’t.
I don’t have my copies of Fanon and Memmi to hand to check, but don’t you usually claim, along with those who agree with you, that those who disagree are colonised?
Does this mean that far from being a binary condition, we need a third descriptor for people like yourself who are technically colonised, but recognise it? A different separate state from those who are technically colonised but haven’t noticed?
Both states being distinct from those who are decolonised and those who are uncolonised.
Hey! This is getting interesting!
H McH: the thing about decolonisation is that it rarely turns out the way you thought it might before you embark on the decolonisation. The other thing is that supposedly non colonised states, such as the UK, look pretty colonised. I think they call it multiculturalism, but it is the same thing in the end.
Except that the UK has been colonised twice over now: once, with gender ideology which paved the way for, and enabled, the second, so-called multiculturalism. Neither, of course, has worked because neither is integrated into the mainstream or assimilated – integration and assimilation being absolute prerequisites for a harmonious existence in a multicultural state.
You can keep your religion – so long as it never becomes paramount – and your culture – so long as it does not seek to dominate or jar, because they, combined, become just another form of colonisation. So long as you rub along with the underlying cultural norms and loose religiosity of the host state, you will have no problems and create none for said host state.
Deviate from those and we are in confrontation land, an inevitable consequence of slack governance and ‘woke’ policies. The new wave of ‘liberalism’, which is authoritarian and even totalitarian, and is, indeed, post modernism and queerism combined, will create, if allowed to flourish for much longer, the very optimal conditions for a civil war between realism and delusion, creating in its turn, the most optimal conditions for a colonisation of the kind that harks back to earlier times: “First they came for the Jews…”
Excellent points, Lorncal.
Both gender woowoo and multiculturalism have another thing in common – we, the people, were never asked if we wanted them.
And, ever since they were rammed down our throats without our permission, we, the people, have always made it crystal clear, each time we were asked, that the majority of us still don’t want them.
Gender woowoo and multiculturalism differ, though, in that whilst the former is in some kind of (reluctant) retreat, the latter is still very much on the charge. It has yet to reach critical mass, but the indications (such as the recent WM bye-election result) show that can’t be far off.
We can argue about the extent to which Scotland is colonised by England, but we can all see very clearly that on the definition that colonisation is occupying a place and diverting its resources to the benefit of the occupiers, the entire UK is undergoing a process of aggressive colonisation.
If we don’t accept and acknowledge that, then even post-Indy, the aggressive colonisation will continue in Scotland.
And the Scotland that Indy was supposed to protect and preserve will be lost.
“Surely, for the colonised, it is always “our” government?”
Not so. Since annexation in 1707 Scots remain subject only to English governance and English laws. Holyrood is merely a subordinate legislature of Westminster with the latter in control of its Acts, and the so-called ‘Scottish Government’ is a UK spending department run by Whitehall appointed civil servants.
“Scots remain subject only to English governance and English laws”
So there is no such thing as Scots Law, Alf?
Michty! You’ve just told me I don’t own my flat.
But wait, assuming you have a property and live in Scotland, neither do you!
Tell you what. Every former crim banged up by a Scottish Court, convicted of breaking Scots Law, is gonna be celebrating today. Mucho compo coming their way. Bonanza time for practitioners of English Law as they sue on behalf of their countless clients.
Haud oan, though. Fit if ye’re talking havering blethers?
“So there is no such thing as Scots Law”
Institutions in a colony serve only the Imperial Crown.
Simply because the colonizer labels institutions something else does not make it so.
Loss of sovereignty means the colonized are ‘out of the game’.

That its what so many independence supporters do not appear to get: being independent will not automatically eliminate the overarching problems we face from ‘woke’, hard left authoritarianism. It cannot be a panacea. I look at Ireland and everything that many people gave their lives for has been squandered on the altar of postmodernism – i.e. the dismantling of Western culture. Yes, like it or not, we are all part of the greater Western culture – and we are being dismantled by ourselves.
When I saw the bams out on the streets celebrating October 7 four years ago, and, now, calling for jihad against the West, I saw that we are being destroyed by our own. Every sin in the world is laid at the door of Israel, then the West. Nobody anywhere else ever did anything wrong or does anything wrong. It is a form of psychological self-flagellation that is destroying a thousand years of Western cultural civilisation and inviting another Holocaust. Even as a teenager and young 20 something, I was wiser than that, as were my peers. What has happened to so many of or young people that they have become tantruming bairns well into their third decade? Why have they not grown up as normal?
When the Eagle soars and the Lion roars the world stands still.
America is waiting.
ALBA CONTINUATION GROUP WELCOMES MACASKILL’S POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT
PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release
Alba Continuation Group Welcomes MacAskill Engagement as Members Raise £25,000 in 48 Hours.
Hopes for Scottish independence in the next Parliament through the election of Alba MSPs on the list have been strengthened following constructive engagement with Kenny MacAskill after recent correspondence. The dialogue marks meaningful progress toward a clear, democratic and constitutional way forward for Alba.
Support for Alba’s continuation has also been demonstrated practically by members and supporters, who have raised £25,000 in just 48 hours to ensure the party’s democratic structures and voice can continue to operate effectively.
In his latest communication, Mr MacAskill acknowledges that a full indemnity has now been offered, removing any financial risk from the current Alba leadership. He also sets out a number of constitutional and financial questions requiring clarification. These questions are legitimate and reflect the seriousness of the responsibilities involved. They provide not an obstacle, but a structured and democratic route to resolving outstanding matters transparently and credibly.
Commenting, Angus Brendan MacNeil said:
“Keir Starmer might deny the Scottish people a referendum on Scotland’s future but a vote on Alba’s future must be given to the Alba membership.
“I am pleased with Kenny MacAskill’s positive response in looking for a democratic path given his, and his colleagues, liabilities are removed if the transition happens. Central to this pathway is democratic legitimacy. Any transfer of responsible officer roles, as defined by the Electoral Commission, must command the confidence of members.
That legitimacy can be secured straightforwardly through an online ballot of members organised efficiently and transparently. Such a ballot would provide a clear democratic mandate from the membership, ensuring that any organisational changes rest on firm constitutional foundations.
“It must also be recognised that there is no constitutional or democratic legitimacy for the deregistration of Alba without the explicit consent of its members. A political party ultimately belongs to its members, not to a small group of office holders and I feel Mr MacAskill’s is looking to respect that principle.
“Also the response from members and supporters, raising £25,000 in just 48 hours, demonstrates clearly that there remains strong commitment to Alba’s role within Scotland’s independence movement.
“This moment represents a crossroads. By choosing a democratic, member-led route, Alba can rebuild confidence, strengthen credibility and position itself to stand at the forthcoming Scottish Parliament election — a vital step in Scotland’s independence journey.
“With unity, transparency and democratic endorsement from members, Alba can enter the next Parliament as a principled advocate for Scotland’s constitutional future.”

Interesting, Fearghas, but I’m afraid I no longer trust Alba – I’m not entirely sure I ever did.
The refusal of its leadership, so far, to align Alba with the “Alliance to Liberate Scotland” movement makes me deeply suspicious of their true motives.
I can’t dismiss the feeling that Alba was Salmond’s attempted revenge on the SNP for its despicable treatment of him and nothing more.
I think now, looking back, we did not fight the enemy; we fought ourselves. And the enemy was in us.
The war is over for me now, but it will always be there, the rest of my days as I’m sure Alec will be, fighting with Nikki for possession of my soul.
There are times since, I’ve felt like the child born of those two.
But, be that as it may, those of us who did make it have an obligation to build again, to teach to others what we know, and to try with what’s left of our lives to find a goodness and a meaning to this life.
You are right Northcote that the enemy is within us.
It is in every one of us to a greater or lesser extent and for different reasons. Optimism can turn to despair. Enthusiasm cand turn apathy. The perception of having power to change can turn to the perception of having no power and no ability to change anything.
The enthusiasm optimism and feeling that people could change things was utterly extant in the Yes campaign. People collegiately in big numbers felt that, believed that, and strove for that.
But a dark enemy lay around us. The state, the dark state of our colonial masters lay all around us. They could not let 2014 happen again. And so the mass movement, the SNP was insidiously dismantled.
People in the SNP were turned. Sleepers in the SNP were activated. Salmond was taken out. The deep tentacles were flexed. And slowly but surely the mechanisms were used to turn the independence juggernaut whilst undermining the movement.
Just look at the SNP now. A party that once had 56 out of 59 Scottish Westminster seats. A party in control of the Hollyrood party. A Yes movement powerful and strong. And a country where now its language, it societal culture, its ethnic mix, its institutions are being changed to make it ever more part of Northern Britain.
Alex Salmond to his absolute credit understood. He and others created Alba and in 2021 recommended voting SNP and Alba 2. That would have delivered an absolute independence super majority with sixty odd SNP and around twenty to thirty Alba.
Instead the SNP promoted SNP 1 and 2 and some 1,093,000 delivered 2 SNP regional seats. And thereafter Alex Salmond was taken out by dark charges against him.
So where do people go in a democratic proces that has been utterly neutered.
When you reflect it becomes quite clear how we have got to where we are. An enemy within and all with a little help from our friends.
But you no what. The dream has not died. Just the mechanics of achieving it have withered. But, difficult as it may appear to many Spring will come again.
The establishment decapitation strategy will fail. New buds will appear and blossom will return.
Yes Northcode, ‘unity’ is imperative if an oppressed people are to succeed in the critical final phase of decolonization.
Alba sought to be a political alternative to the compromised SNP, rather than forming part of a peoples liberation movement with one goal:

To compare colonisation wth immigration is a false equivalence.
Here is a modern definition of colonialism:
And here is a definition of immigration contrasted with colonisation.
Colonialism and immigration are distinct concepts, though both involve people moving across geographic spaces, their motives, structures, and consequences differ fundamentally.
In short:
Colonialism = exertion of control and domination over one people for benefit of another, often systematically imposed.
Immigration = voluntary relocation into another society, generally within its legal and social framework.
They are not the same, although historical and structural intersections (as with Scotland and England) can complicate interpretations.
An analogy might be: moving as a family to live in a new country is immigration; sending colonists with the backing of a state to assert control over the land and resources of another people is colonialism… which is what we see happening in Scotland.
NOTE: Much of this comment is copy and paste from various online sources. Four (roughly) of its sentences are all my own work, tho, as is the layout of the copied text.
“Immigration […] generally within its legal and social framework”
There you go, Northy, the words in your own post that blow your fatuous comparison out of the water.
Unless, of course, the couthy part of Auld Scotia where you grew up regularly practiced Sharia, honour killings, polygamy, female genital mutilation and cousin marriage, and thought it necessary to kill anybody who insulted The Prophet.
Do tell. I won’t be the only Scot wanting to give that place the body swerve.
I have an urge to scribble doun some Scots words and post them to this place:
Tho we hamespun Scottis fowk kin ettle a conjectour at the substance o thair raverie, we maun hae sumthyng mair tae the purpos o it.
Fir withoot knawin mair o thair purpos the’ll be nae unnerstaunin thair draunts. Tho a’m thinkin the’ll be nae unnerstaunin thair drauntin onywey, shuir.
I thank you for indulging my obsession.

It seems that if you are prepared to randomly kill, you get favourable concessions from WM. Who’d a thunk it!
“that’s the basic flaw in the definition that the Government is about to publish. Each time the word “Muslim” appears in the text, ministers will need a really good reason why it doesn’t refer to all believers (or non-believers). They won’t be able to produce one”
According to AI the inbreeding in some muslim communities is as high as 60% which results in a severe weakening of the gene pool.

Although every sentence Trump utters is embarrassingly infantile – coming as they do from the mouth of a fully formed adult body – to sane and mature ears they are to him in his own mind the most magnificent utterings of the greatest and grandest leader this world has ever known.
Trump, in his own image of his own self, believes this to be the absolute truth… and he thinks we all believe the same as he.
Trump believes he is worshipped and adored as a demi-god.
Trump believes he is wise beyond words and cannot err and cannot sin.
Trump believes he is humanity’s saviour, Golding’s naval officer, God’s messenger sent to raise humankind, the child, to maturity.
Trump believes he is the benevolent, tho stern, infallible father of all the world’s fowk.
Trump is utterly insane.
Only the sane question their sanity. Trump has never, and never will, question his such is the depth of his madness.
The Americans, an immature people, have visited upon this Earth an autocratic, impulsive, extravagant, cruel and unpredictable man-child of a Potus.
The end of his mad and cretinous reign cannot come soon enough.
DONALD TRUMP is physically & mentally «unwell» it is the nurses tending him we ought to be concerned with. They have turned the US into a rogue state, a hi def surreal «looking glass» entity of corporate totalitarianism and foreign adventurism.
International law lies dead in the water, literally. Killing civilians is legitimized in the furtherance of US & allies interests and national boundaries and elected governments have no substance,
This is an ideological game with a fatal flaw. Many might play it should they choose.
America is entering its «last days». The Great Bully is running out of puff.
Vade retro satana….anyone got a silver bullet? holy water? a nuke?
Have a good day..
More bad than mad.
Trump is said to have had mob connections in his early business days – Gambino and Genovese links.
He is certainly killing many Americans as well as those in outside countries.

With you, as we frequently observe, these are obsessions with:

So that’s good. Keep them coming. For the sane majority of us, fore warned is fore armed.
The masonic lodges & the prody interpreting shit for the dumb.
The moment a Brit is involved, hearing of some free landgrab, you just know everything will go tits up from there & interpretation is on a hiding to nothing as they rag tag along for some free real estate. This will explain why Issy forbids genealogy/DNA tests. They’ve no connection to the region whatsoever.
& This unhinged Zee shit needs shown the red card cause it’s them & their crazy ideology that’s piggybacked onto anothers religion.
Reminds me of the joke where the voluminous matron asks the ragged wee urchin “Is mass oot?”
I’m afraid you’re never going to get Scottish Indy by appealing to that minority, Geri.
But hey, when were you ever really about Indy?
You reap what you sow, hatey.
Didn’t the good Lord tell you that? He’d spit you out of the land.. I suspect that’s not the lord you lot worship tho..
You need to stop swallowing yer own propaganda & the heavily edited BBC.
The West causes refugee crisis. The West funds & creates terrorism around the world.,The West continues to repeat the same shit over & over again..but finally someone has stopped them.
Go look up the GCC open letter. It’s brutal. Boy they are pissed at being mugged off & the Jenny maniacs can kiss goodbye to the funding for their stupid board of peace. It’s dead – not gonnie happen. The president promising no more wars has attacked, & had operatives in, seven countries & put the entire region at risk & now they’re demanding to know whose bright idea that was. They’ll never be trusted again. The petro dollar is over.
So the West are looking more & more stupid by the day. They can’t even get their story straight. The orange one fantasising about unconditional ceasefires & who he will or won’t *allow* to a religious leader Lolz! While the warhawk eejits in England thump their chest at the cowardly lion who looks to have been hedging its bets.
R loves & has an affinity to Scotland. He’s said so. He knows his history too. A walking encyclopedia according to his friends & knows his shit about international law too & how to deal with eejits trying to scramble to talk to him as mediator. Too late, OPEC & OPEC+ got there first. The moment a religious leader was killed.

I can think of no one better who’d champion the breakup of the United Kingdom. What was good for the goose afterall when the West bragged they’d break up his. It’d be Karma cashing in wouldn’t it? All the shit terrorist operations they’ve done inside R will come back to bite as they recognise an indy Scotland…Lolz…
The United Nations will be cleared out of all corruption & influence across all departments with it. Western hegemony is over. It ended the day they attacked Iran. They thought it was backwards & stupid, a country that has withstood centuries of shit & adapted long before you Muppets even emerged from yer mud huts in the shire.
Actually, Geri, your juxtaposition of R and love reminds me. I was wondering if your recent absence was down to him and you going for the love child you were fantasising about a few months back.
poot’s absence was also commented on a few weeks ago in the MSM. This is Wings BTL – we don’t do coincidence.
C’moan, Geri, dish the goss and gie Stu a scoop!
Do you find it difficult to sleep at night? Waking in cold sweats?

Whatever happened to Scottish nationalism?
“Whatever happened to Scottish nationalism?”
==========
Is that the right question?
I suggest a better one: whatever happened to the Scottish independence movement?
Easy to answer.
Unable to build a solid, reliable majority in favour through the ballot box, and thus unable to democratically garner the popular political legitimacy that could bring Independence into being, the movement has embarked on a series of increasingly dislocated and irrelevant efforts to piggy back Independence onto international events.
Supporting and siding with RF aggression and neo-colonialist imperialism, thus fatally wounding its own efforts to build a case and sympathy for England’s claimed colonisation of Scotland.
Supporting the murderous, misogynistic barbarities of the Ham Ass scum, thus alienating women in particular and any Scot generally opposed to the kidnap, torture, murder and incarceration of completely innocent people.
Supporting the medievalists in the ME whose sworn intention is genocide of the Jews, thus exposing the clear links between certain strands of the Indy movement and the ancient scourge of antisemitism.
There you go, Cynicus. I note you’re too feart, embarrassed and ashamed to answer your own question, but remember:
The truth shall set you free.
whatever happened to the Scottish independence movement?
When they killed nationalism, which was the intellectual foundation of the independence movement, the latter was always going to wither and die.
We want independence because we are a nation. The Scots are a distinct people occupying a particular territory who should govern ourselves.
A mere accident of geography that’s delighted to be colonised by foreigners doesn’t need independence. When the SNP stopped being nationalist, they became just another woke joke party that has no reason to exist other than self advancement for the least impressive Scottish (and ‘Scottish’) people you’ve ever heard of.
Scotland free or a desert. If Scots aren’t nationalist, if we don’t care enough about Scotland to put her first, our nation will not survive the 21st century.
Lets discuss International Law. Is it made up like gender ideology or is it just made up for cowards to hide behind. Does anyone even know what it means. The Left wing commentators all refer to it but no one actually explains it much like men in women’s spaces.
Anybody can do international law, Mark. You take a soft pencil, crayon or piece of chalk and scrawl some international law on the warhead of your bomb, rocket or missile, prior to launch.
My favourite legal phrase is “Enjoy your free pass to paradise, ragheid”, but others will have their own favourites, very possibly referencing donkeys in a more colloquial style.

Having watched the news where it was announced with some fanfare that Shabana Mahmood had proposed that certain immigrants should be awarded £40,000 to return home , I felt I had to respond to this lunacy, so I wrote to my MP’s and MSP’s the following
I am ouItraged after listening to the home secretary Shabana Mahmood on a news broadcast announcing that she was proposing awarding certain categories of immigrants £40,000 to leave Britain and return to their original homelands
Surely she was playing a April fools joke on the electorate even although it is only March
If not , is she unaware of the decades of AUSTERITY that has been IMPOSED on the electorate by a series of incompetent governments the latest incompetents being the Labour party
It is incomprehensible that it has escaped Ms Mahmood that people who have lived under this incompetence and abject stupidity have not suffered egregiously financially and socially whilst politicians play fast and loose with our taxes , it may not impact our politicians or Ms Mahmood to the same extent on their generous salaries and gold plated pensions , but I can assure anyone interested that awarding certain immigrants £40,000 to leave Britain will not endear the political class to the electorate
How does ANY politician believe that this handout will be treated as acceptable by an electorate that is struggling to pay their rent , their mortgage , their increasing food bills , their increasing energy bills , their increasing fuel bills , ALL these things and more on a depleted and devalued income caused by said incompetent governments
This announcement and others was made in an effort to address and SILENCE the outrage of the electorate at the continued FAILURE of this and previous governments to control and stem the inflow of what appears to be a vast exodus of peoples from war ravaged countries which the uk previously and presently participated and participates in
The ongoing endemic FAILURE to address the immigration problem will not be solved by this bribery initiative but it will most certainly rapidly inflame the anger and resentment of the electorate who are struggling to make ends meet and who will ultimately pay for this crass insult to their intelligence through their taxes
“fast and loose with our taxes”
Too bad, Twat H. The gubermint will analyse your online posting history and discover you already have a solid track record of mocking anybody who expresses concerns about the crushing tax burden.
And thus determine you’re not serious.
“you already have a solid track record of mocking anybody”
Pot and kettle, Hatey over Scotland, as ‘mocking anybody’ is clearly your primary function here, accounting as you do for almost one third of all btl comments.
Nine tenths of all rational BTL comments, Alf.
Don’t you ever feel an overwhelming urge to mock some of the more deluded dross that gets posted on here? Those entirely invented ranting lies about imaginary, political scenarios, for example, or the crude Nazi-era antisemitism, or the claims to be a space travelling Pict. How could any rational man ever believe Scotland’s and/or Indy’s cause is helped by the likes of these?
Be honest now, Alf, just between ourselves. I promise I won’t ever clipe.
Aye, Alf. The seecond functioun bein tae weary the erse aff us wi ill-foondit pronooncements and pontificatiouns and undivaulin jaumph.

Dunno, TURABDIN.
Are your lot losing? Bigly, perhaps?
There’s some irony to be enjoyed here. Decades during which the west always fought with one hand tied behind its back, but was always lambasted and blamed as satanic, regardless.
Now, after 4 years of poot’s aggression and war mongering, aided and abetted by his ME allies and proxies, when some of us are finally accepting that playing the nice guy gets us nowhere, it’s all “wah, not fair, go back to how you were before”.
Maybe you should have taken your wins while you still had them.
Here’s the metric I intend to be guided by in the coming months and years. We’re being told millions of refugees, the side effect of Iran’s nuclear aspirations, will soon be heading our way.
As long as it’s us in the west who are fighting them off with shitty sticks, I won’t be believing anybody trying to make out that we’re the baddies. Like everybody else keen to do us down, why don’t you focus on preaching how bad we are at the migrants? We need help to turn them back.
You are being gubbed, Shiteface.
AGAIN.
It’s game over. USA & it’s minions driven out of the ME. The cash cow has stopped milking for the West & it’s unlikely to resume anytime soon – certainly not like it did before.
Eyes blinded. Weapons depleted. Systems failing. Contracts torn up for failing to protect the regions who’d invested Trillions to the yanks for protection. Now they’re stripping weapons from South Korea & Japan. Not to protect their trillion dollar assets but to protect the instigator of it all.
Google/the BBC & all the other pretendy media shills have heavily suppressed & censoring the news. At this point they’re giving Comical Ali a run for their money & looking more & more stupid by the day with their idiotic posturing & stupid pronouncements of unconditional surrender.

Provided it is all going on elsewhere the Anglo-Saxon west sleeps content but when it reaches homeground the pearls may get clutched in self righteous horror.
There is a satyric take on US militarism in a film called Starship Troopers, i would not be surprised were that not the most fav movie of the US «Christian» Ayatullahs.
An old school freudian analyst would strike gold with the type.
All this American dysfunctionalism is a sorry distraction from the thing that ought to matter, Scotland’s future in a planet of recycled, adolescent petty prejudices.

‘IS HEGSETH a woman despising, overscompensating closet «fag»….’
link to archive.is
=============
You are using the term, “fag“, in the American rather than the Etonian or cigarette sense. From the link to The Atlantic piece, there is no evidence of this. It takes serious psychoanalytical imagination to see Hegseth’s many sexual assaults -all on women- as compensation for, “queerness“!
The Atlantic misses an important trick on the coarseness of the preposterous Hegseth. The brutality of his language is not merely that of a sycophantic clown mimicking his boss; It is even worse than George W’s on Iraq, a staggering ignorance of the cultural milieu into which he has blundered. To what extent is this due to the womanising piss-head becoming a Christian Nationalist?
In any event, his bloodthirsty threats will be music to the ears of the Iranian Republican Guard Corps with their Shi’ite martyrdom complex. To be slain by the hand of an infidel is the surest meal ticket to Paradise for a believer.
HEGSETH is rather obsessed with masculinity, online links reinforce that by his dislike of homosexuality. Were the Atlantic to take the thing further it would probably be closed down by the régime.
Soft peddling on his case, however, is not something Freud would do.
Hegseth gives himself away by his solace drinking, clumsy womanizing, when drunk presumanly, and trying to appear tough. He is immature in his behavior patterns.
Suppressed or latent or whatever he fits a classic type psychiatrists might recognize.
His evangelical christian nationalist pastor friends are also rather suggestive of deep seated angst.
Apart from that he does not seem a man with much in the way of intellect.

«Every day’s delay will only make the final reckoning worse for us»
WE, the inhabitants of the region have been dealing with that reckoning for centuries, and it just worsens exponentially.
Until all this comes home in some emphatic to the countries involved you will never appreciate the damage, physical & psychological inflicted by outside meddlers.
As a global «nomad», not by choice, i rather resent the implication that «we» are all dedicated to killing & mayhem.
A «quiet life» would be nice.
1. Bomb the crap out of somewhere.
2. Create large numbers of economically displaced.
3. Experience a surge in migration as a result.
4. Make legal migration tortuous that;
5. Creates circumstances that feeds illegal immigration.
6. Whinge like a Pom about illegal immigration.
7. Repeat..
Not factually accurate, YL.
We all know that in the Mad Mullah’s frame of reference, step 2 is:
2. Slay every last man, woman and child, through a perfected nuclear Final Solution.
And thus all subsequent steps don’t occur.
As I said, we all know, but only those opposed are prepared to say it out loud. Those in favour, with few exceptions, still prefer to pretend they have something else in mind.
And that’s just enough of a fig leaf for the rabid antisemites to try to subvert the Scottish Indy movement and convert that to their cause.
Hey, don’t get me wrong. I long since noticed that many of the regulars on here are far more passionate about their pet hobby horses than they ever were about Indy. If true Indy supporters believe antisemitism is key to growing the movement, I’m cool with that.
I just can’t abide all the denial, subterfuge and lies.
Perhaps you need to read our history.
Centuries of every horror imaginable. Our ancestors fought each other to a standstill and came up with some effective mechanisms to keep us from tearing each other’s throats out with our teeth.
As for outside meddling, we’ve had runaway importation of outside meddlers for decades now, and their meddling is increasing exponentially. We’re sick of it and support for the people who want to return the outside meddlers to their shitholes of origin is growing.
Aaaah…let us psychoanalyze the word SHITHOLES.
«they make shitholes and call it peace»
an update on an old theme.
eneuch fir dha dai, pardon ma neo-Lallans
Unfortunately Johnny boy to achieve your goal you will have to fall out with the Franchise Fanny and his assorted progressive arsewipes who demand that we need and desire more and more outside meddlers (immigrants) , in fact the Franchise Fanny and cohort insist on endowing these meddlers with the grandiose title of NEW SCOTS , irrespective of where they have come from or whether or not they want to be NEW SCOTS or whether they consider that title as an insult
The Franchise Fanny must have been enraged that all these Edinburghers of schemie origin had actually protested in the Edinburgh streets at the number of immigrants being allowed into the hallowed grounds of Edinburgh and the preference and priority given to them for housing over the local working classes , he must have been horrified that these moonhowlers and nativists would stray into his area and disturb one of his dinner parties
Maybe the Franchise Fanny was thinking that the upsurge in inflow of immigrants was beneficial for the middle classes because it increased the amount of cheap labour available and he personally could benefit from it (off books) as he needs carers for his in laws , the downside is that he would have to worry about his wife and daughters safety as these young males are renowned for their reproductive capabilities whether requested or not
Surely it is Karma that the Franchise Fanny and his inlaws bolted from England to Scotland to avoid the hordes of third world rejects and all of a sudden they appear down their street
Johnny boy you have become a moonhowler and nativist you will be ostrasized by the Fanny
That shows you should always be careful what you wish for

Well that was a bit special as Scotland beat France at Murrayfield in what has to be one of the greatest matches of the modern era. Not sure what Fannon and the rest would think about it and don’t care. If you cant’ enjoy watching the young people of your country delivering a massive result like this you need to take a hard look at yourself.
Had you told me last week that France would come to Murrayfield and scored 40 points I would’ve put my head in my hands and said, “oh ESS AITCH ONE TEE“!
But that is what they did! Even so, Scots are ” dancing in the Streets of Raith”, even those from outwith the town and even those not fans of the round ball game .
OK David
I agree.
But what about the manager and coaching staff?
Unless I miscounted fingers (and apologies if I have) then what exactly do they think the subs bench is for?
The team played their hearts out and should have been reinvigorated with “fresh legs” long before the tired last 16 minutes took its 3 opposition tries toll. Another fifteen minutes and who knows what the score would have been.
That French bonus point may just undo us.
Use subs, it’s what they are there for.
Maybe thinking has changed in over 40 years since I last played..

Yes- a month after they beat England’s opponents in the annual Calcutta Cup match!
‘The 6 Nations’, what is the point of it?
Held every year?
‘Calcutta Cup’?
Other than to remind the vast majority of people who are not the least bit interested in rugby – and who did not attend private schools – that the game is primarily significant for and hence part of the values of privileged elites?
So the question is, why is rugby significant to privileged elites?
Why, Alf?
It’s all clearly explained in the works of Fanon, Memmi, Cesaire and the Jonesy boyo.
Yes, colonial elites taking their pastimes and other pursuits to the colonies is referred to in postcolonial theory as the ‘cultural recreation of the colonizer’.
Aye, Alf.
Countries like India and Pakistan, Sri Lanka too, with their national obsessions about cricket, remain hopelessly colonised.
And see them Brazilians, Uruguayans and Argentines? Fit are they like with their fitba? Mired in colonialism, every single one.
But the verra saddest of all – them African countries with their Africa Cup Of Nations. If only they knew, eh Alf.
Fitba wis nivver a colonial game, Hatey, Scots gied fitba tae the warld wi nae strings, tae be played by the poorest bairns on dirt pitches in Glasgow, Rio or Lagos.
That’s why its called ‘the peoples game’.
Rugby an cricket are aye colonial tho, mostly played by mair privileged elites, as is the case here too.
Sure, Alf, the fitba players on million dollar a week contracts aren’t privileged elites.
If only I could get some of that underprivileged vassalage for masel.
Alf, did you forget the late, great commentator Bill McLaren? He wis a Borderer wi a guid Scots tung in his heid, like mony o his neebors in Langholm and ither Borders toons furth o Langholm, traditional bastions o Scottish Rugby.
Aye Cynicus, yer richt, tho rural Scotland differed fae the cities wi fermers laddies addin thair wecht an muscle tae whit is a mair pheesical gemm.

I see The Donald is now saying he doesn’t need British support now “the war is won” (sic).

Well, I don’t think American really needs allies other than to legitimise their actions as a coalition.
As for the war being won; I don’t recall war actually being declared with weasel phrases like conflict etc used instead.
Secondly, have got to ask, when did Uncle Sam actually last win a war?
Yes yes they pulverise places but they just don’t seem able to manage the follow up, do they?
Korea was left in a nowhere state, Vietnam saw them cutting their losses and scampering out with their tails between their legs double quick.
Cuba, the Contras and a host of similar just get US “visitations” before they lose heart and interest and eff off again.
Iraq and Afghanistan; hardly unalloyed success stories in the long run.
The same will pan out in post apocalyptic Iran.
Mind you, they managed to win in Grenada didn’t they!
Wow!!
Success should be measured in terms of ultimate failure as historians will tell you.
Meantime, all this expenditure! What is the US national debt running at now? Must be eye watering.
No wonder they want Zs country, Greenlands and Canadas resources!
Just saying an’ that..
“…have got to ask, when did Uncle Sam actually last win a war?“
I think it was way back in the 1800 hundreds when they fought themselves, and it’s fair to say they lost that one too.
No DL
I think it’s when they got the colonial twitch and aced the red Indians then the Spanish to (sssshhh!) create their ane wee pacific Empire on foreign soil.

History repeats itself, that’s why the “it’s all ancient guff” loons really are the problem..
I wonder if George Galloway’s supposed Damascene conversion to independence will hold much sway with leftist voters in Scotland? Putting aside his contrarian nature that saw him simultaneously clamour for a United Ireland and Scotland’s continued shackling to the union over the years, I wonder if he’ll form a party in the years to come and thus split the unionist left even further? Some will say he’s an irrelevant has-been, but he still pulls viewers.

Understandably so, IMHO.

“Scotland’s f(r)ightened old men & women”
The dominant national party elite sitting in the colonizer’s parliaments do suffer from a kind of ‘petrifaction’, lacking ‘courage at the decisive moment’, fearing ‘the colonizer’s tanks and planes’, according to Fanon.
Which helps explain Sturgeon & Swinney ‘taking the people up a blind alley’, and ‘rupturing the movement’, making ‘an accommodation with colonialism’, and only ever mentioning independence just prior to elections:
link to yoursforscotlandcom.wordpress.com
For obvious reasons, not fearing the coloniser’s ships.
Fair play to Fanon, it’s remarkable he was able to predict that. Move over Brahan Seer, there’s a new kid on the block.
Politically constipated Scotland requires a purgative.
I think that is in line with Fanon’s analysis of the state of the body politic.
You do not have to be a medic to recognize the symptoms, being in denial is also symptomatic.
Scotland the land of common sense needs to apply the faculty, now.
Buy yourself a ticket to here and we’ll make you First Minister.
Quick now, before the alert readers notice you’ve no plan.
Just like President Trump!
Seriously though, the best justification for the latest war I’ve read is that Iran was well on its way to achieving the critical mass of missiles and drones at which military defeat would have been impossible. And thus, a pre-emotive strike was inevitable.
The corollary is that for Scotland to be Independent, we need to determine the critical mass of missiles and drones we will need, the raw materials and production facilities we will need, and the economy we will require to pay for it all. Without these essentials, re-colonisation by the local hegemon will be inevitable.
Fit’s that ye say? We’ll be loved by all?
Not with our religion of peace following New Scots pulling the strings. They can’t stop themselves issuing fatwas, swearing holy vows of extermination, and classifying unbelievers as untermensch. It’s in their DNA.
Oddly enough, that seriously pisses people off!
Colonialism, there must be a ‘for dummies’ somewhere for that tae, eh?.
Wait!
Haud oan a meenit!
There definitely is…
I suggest reading Alf Baird’s easily digestible book called “Doun-Hauden” in which he describes in detail Scotland’s 300 year-old trial as a colony of England and first victim of the British Empire.
The other half of the Baird/Northy axis magically materialises. Puts me in mind of the physical impossibility that is the hypothetical magnetic monopole. Or maybes quantum entanglement.
But enough of that.
Is it true, Northy, that no space travelling, millennia old Pict ever leaves his home planet without a copy of Doun Hauden in his pooch?
And several thousand copies, for selling to the natives on arrival, in the cargo hold?
“Colonialism…‘for dummies’”
Weel pit, Northcode.
Whit minds me, A wis gaun tae caw ‘Doun-Hauden’ bi anither name – ‘Zombie Naition’ – tae tak accoont o aw thaim Scots fowk sufferin fae a colonial mindset that still canna see the wid for the trees efter centuries o cultural assimilation an colonial domination.
Colonialism for dummies explained here:
link to cpb-us-w2.wpmucdn.com
Twinned with “Scots For Dummies”, Alf.
Who knew that the Scots for zombie is zombie, the Scots for tree is tree, the Scots for domination is domination, and that the Scots for colonial is colonial?
Doesn’t that mean even Scots post-colonialists are still colonised. That’s if the Scots for post is post.
Imagine being so colonised you don’t even have your own word for colonised?
Truly, Alf, the mind boggles.
The Anglo dominated and assimilated colonial mindset certainly ‘boggles’ with illusions of cultural superiority, as Hatey ower Scotland aye attempts tae de-base us colonized Scots.
The term ‘zombie’ comes from Haitian folklore, not English.
The term ‘colony’ comes from the Latin word ‘colonia’; and ‘dominate’ also comes from the Latin ‘dominatus’. English and other languages merely borrowed them.
And, just to remind colonial-minded Scots, the unique Scots term for ‘oppressed’ is ‘doun-hauden’.
The English word ‘oppressed’ is also borrowed, from the Latin ‘oppressus’, meaning to squeeze or suffocate; as in the Anglo ‘colonial corset’ aye suffocating Scots.
Nul pints tae Hatey ower Scotland agin!
Ah, c’moan noo, Alf.
Ye were jist getting interesting.
Fits Scots fer corset?
BTW, surely nae True Scot drinks pints? Doesn’t Scots have its own measure?
To add, in relation to Northcode’s correct use of the Scots word ‘dummie’, which refers to in English ‘a dumb person’; as in ‘see yon dummie ower thair’.
Which seems to fit again in this instance of Hatey’s imagined English language superiority; and to those suffering from a colonial mindset generally which clearly has a ‘dumming’ (Scots spelling) effect on the mind of the colonized, rendering them ‘zombie-like’, more or less.
Which really does help explain the Scots ‘No’ vote(r)!
“Which really does help explain the Scots ‘No’ vote(r)”
Great. Did anybody ask for that explanation?
But why don’t you answer the question that was asked?
Why does the colonised’s language have no word for the coloniser’s word “colonised”.
I thought Fanon, Memmi and the Jonesy boyo said that you have to decolonise? Why not start with language, Alf?
Why do you let the coloniser shape the thoughts in your heid and the words you commit to paper?
“Why do you let the coloniser shape the thoughts in your heid”
The colonized cannot prevent it, and that is how colonialism works, Hatey, whereby the colonizer ‘manufactures the colonized being’ (Memmi). How did ye think Scots (or Irish, Indians, Africans etc) were makkit intae identifying as English-Brits, by magic?
As Cesaire wrote, ‘colonialism is based on psychology’, which tells us that we are dealing here primarily with a psychological condition rather than merely political or economic concerns, which is what all our political commentators forget:

“The SNP has lost its candidate in a key Holyrood battleground after they stepped down from the race citing mental health concerns.

In a statement, Cllr Hoggan said he could feel things “slipping” after a “tough” few years.

RIP ALBA… a sad day.
Sad, indeed. The corrupted SNP leadership will be cheering, no doubt.
The SNP members have no mechanism to remove the gravy trainers nor infiltrators so we, the people, have to put up with this shower for another 5 years of incompetence and worse. Time is too short for alternative candidates and parties to make much of an impact in May, I fear. But battle on, we must. And hope that the UN Liberation Scotland campaign bears fruit sooner rather than later.

That OT god of Don & Bibi, not a guy to invite to dinner…..sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice ad nauseam, what a messy feeder.
With numbers stacking into the thousands amazing the Brit press is more concerned by influencers and tax dodgers stuck in the dreadful gulf despotisms.
Ah, C’moan noo, TURABDIN.
At least go through the motions of impartiality. Gie’s the numbers for the missiles and drones fired from Lebanon in the same period.
And if you think their warheads are packed with pick’n’mix, chocolate bars and love hearts, provide some evidence.
Is Kid Starver only supplying flights for holiday makers in the Gulf regions , or is he also supplying flights at enormous taxpayers cost to the thousands of tax avoiding and evading residents who always like to mention their proud British nationality and passport when things go tits up for them
Kid Starver – I believe he has cancelled the two child benefit.

How to train a jihidi, feed him/her any current English language media and tell him/her they live in shitholes or the equivalent.
Reason & wisdom having long since been kicked out of the room so do not be surprised by what takes their place.

Reason and wisdom were kicked out of the room when we made it clear we would pay generously to support anybody who could make it to our shores.
As for the places so many of them come from being shitholes. It’s a simple truth. If they weren’t shitholes, the inhabitants would stay put.
If it’s any consolation, our newcomers are working assiduously to turn what we have here into an equivalent shithole to the ones they vacated. If they succeed, the “pull factor” will undoubtedly end.
Alba no more a day of mixed emotions. The launch of Alba looked hopeful and the SNP 1 Alba 2 ticket made a lot of sense which is why the SNP ignored it. I almost joined but after the heavy handed slap down of Sarah Salyers and continued sinking of the boot by among others Barrhead Boy who seemed to be a self appointed attack dog I did not. Once Alex Salmond was gone the writing was on the wall. The departure of a group of former SNP members who ran the good guys campaign to get some form of accountability back on the SNP executive was also a red flag. A lot of good people put a lot of effort into Alba and I am sorry how it panned out. I even voted for them on the list and SNP 1 and got Jenny Minto for my trouble. RIP Alba.
It’s quite worrying though, if a new party can’t make it when it is run by the most prominent pro-independence politician in the country, what chance does the movement have. Certainly not at the hands of some of the brigadoon moonhowlers that haunt this place.
Cause they don’t have foreign agents as donors.
Unlike yoons.
& The pro independence movement has the wit to stop playing the Yoon pantomime game at the colonial outpost.
Holyrood was stripped of its powers after indyref & then again during Brexshit when Sturgeon stuffed it full of yoons. It’s no longer the administration it was under Alex. It should be closed. It’s not a parliament.
The sticking plaster experiment is a fail. Bes to revert back to plan A afterall which was full indy.
Adrian; It’s not you concern, and it’s past your bed time.
Good post Geri.

@ David Holden – I’ve just found a silver lining in this cloud. There is nothing now stopping the Alba candidates coming under the umbrella of the Alliance to Liberate Scotland party.
I always thought that it was a mistake for Alex not to join the Action for Independence umbrella in 2021. I do hope that Alba members and candidates will see the light this time.
Sarah,
Only Westminster is the recognised seat of power. They need to concentrate on winning seats there.
Holyrood is a complete waste of everyone’s time. It has already been ruled it has zero power to legislate for a referendum.
What Scotland does outside of it is what matters.
“Only Westminster is the recognised seat of power. They need to concentrate on winning seats there.”-Geri, 8 March, 2026 at 10:57 pm
Spot on . But pro-Indy MPs need to be more disruptive than the Parnell/Redmond Irish Parliamentary party was.
They should aim to do disrupt the business of Parliament that the Brits will want rid of us.
Do not expect the rotten and corrupt grifters of the SNP devo- unionists to deliver that. We need a genuine pro-independence party that means serious business which entails sticking it to the YOONs at Westminster.
A start has to be made in May either a campaign to smash the Sturgeonites (continuing), even if that imperils the Mickey Mouse Scottish Assembly in Holyrood.
Geri: nobody else did. Nah, a majority in Holyrood – i.e. in Scotland – is the answer. Always was Scotland. Different when there was no Holyrood. It is for the MPs to follow Holyrood, not the other way around.
Lorncal
That is wrong. Holyrood is not a parliament. It is an administration.
Westminster is where the power lies & where Scotland sits. 56 MPs had the legal authority to declare independence under Sturgeon & walk out. The ballot box has legal authority. The political will of the ppl had already spoken.
Those bastards bottled it.
“A start has to be made in May”
You tell them.
Nobody can start today. Diaries will already be full.
I guess if no start is made in May, it might be because nobody is looking for their instructions in Wings BTL.
I too stopped believing in the Alba party after the sidelining of Sara Salyers ,Sara received a standing ovation at the 1ST Alba conference from the membership because she highlighted Scots SOVEREIGNTY but all of a sudden she became persona non grata with Alex Salmond and the Alba hierarchy,TBQH I felt Alex was tied to the diplomatic approach and wanted to play the WM game which I felt was evident in the acceptance of the defeatist franchise and what made it even worse is that he said he would use the same franchise if there were another referendum, as for Kenny I believe he would use the same tactics as Alex and again TBQH I don’t see any fight , passion or aggression to FIGHT for independence in him
As you say Roddy was very vitriololic and dismissive about SALVO and I and others argued with him about it but he continued to denigrate it , all of a sudden he now supports it
I have had a few run ins with him and Allan about their continued promotion of immigration, I said I thought the mantra was “Independence Nothing Else, Nothing Less” but it resulted in them using the old RACIST slur in an attempt to silence comment
Yes I have had the odd run in with Roddy and was blocked by him on Twitter. When he went after the late Ian Lawson it was cringe worthy as he came over as a bitter wee twisted man and since then I don’t take anything he says seriously. He must have been on a Saga holiday to Damascus and after the bright light he has switched his support to back Salvo etc.
It might seem counter-intuitive, but it’s a good thing that Alba is out of the way… it never was of much use to the independence movement – more a hinderance than a help.
A hindrance too, Northy.
Ah, the puerile mind of a pedant is shown to us… who could have guessed that ‘Hate over Scotland’ – HoS frae this pint forrit – would sink so low as to attempt to embarass a felow comenter in this place by highlighting a speling error made in a paratactic language where ridiculous spelling rules abound.
Well, maist o us, a think, wid be the answer tae that quaisten.
I wonder if all English are afflicted with the pedantism or just HoS.
Yes, to my great shame I have made a spelling error in a short inconsequential comment of mine in this supposedly Scottish place ruled over and swamped by the inane anti-Scots racist comments of English unionists (colonists if preferred… same thing).
In my defence English is not my first language (though I speak and write in it far better than most English)… Scots is my first language, beaten out of me and suppressed while I was a small child and replaced with that mongrel lingo of the English that is riddled with strange accents and weird spellings across its seven kingdoms that wis force’t doun ma gullet insteid.
What can ah say, Northy. Spare the rod and spoil the child.
They should have thrashed you harder. Perhaps then some learning would have stuck.
@ Geri at 10.57: “Holyrood …has zero power to legislate for a referendum.”
But it can hold an election on a single issue e.g. that the electorate wants to give Holyrood the legislative competence to facilitate the exercise of Scotland’s right of self-determination. See the Manifesto for Independence.
Being at Westminster doesn’t give us any greater power – 59 [or less] MPs won’t convince the other 600 MPs to release us! They don’t want to release us because they would be made to look very foolish internationally, and they would freeze without our energy resources.
Either Westminster accepts the Claim of Right or it doesn’t. At the moment it seems they do because Charles Windsor had to swear under it in order to begin the process of becoming King of Scots. [He hasn’t completed the process yet.] So it “just” takes an assertion from a representative body in Scotland that the people have made their decision under the Claim of Right to leave this false Union: a Holyrood election does satisfy that condition. We merely require the right people in sufficient numbers to be MSPs.
Of course that’s total nonsense, such a declaration would have no effect in law at all. The claim of right does not provide Holyrood to declare Scotland to be independent. The courts have considered the issue of Holyrood’s powers to hold an independence referendum AND the claim of right comprehensively and recently.
What Holyrood COULD do, as Andy Ellis has pointed out many many times (to much wailing and nashing of teeth) is to hold a snap election with a promise that should a majority vote in the list vote for pro-independence candidates, then Holyrood will declare Scotland to be independent. Now to be clear U.K. law does not provide for that, so it would be a political rather than a legal declaration, and therefore may not work, but it has the best chance.
It is definitely a better plan than inventing absurd legal theories which have no chance of being recognised by the courts, or trying to persuade the UN to force the U.K. to hold a second referendum.
The hope is not “to persuade the UN to force the UK …etc”. It is that the UN C24 will decide that Scotland is a non self governing territory – a colony.
Such a declaration has no power other than strong political pressure.
That’s not true – administering states over NSGT’s do have obligations under international law to help those territories achieve self-government. It’s a moot point anyway as Scotland doesn’t meet the criteria for an NSGT.
Hang on…. haven’t yer overlords said there is no such thing as international laws? They’re completely stumped when asked this very question.
It’d seem rather odd they’d suddenly remember it later eh?
Scotland is in a VOLUNTARY union. A union it can leave any time of its choosing. It can declare UDI. It can hold a ref on JOINING the UK. When 56 MPs were elected to Westminster it was within their powers to declare UDI & walk out. Even Thatcher said so.
The court only ruled on their wee outpost. Not on Scots.
@Geri – perhaps you could point me to a single authoritative source of law that confirms or even supports that view? I’ll wait
No need to wait.
Your wee Supreme court print out. Read clause 81.
You’re welcome.
The Supreme Court produces around 60 judgements a year, you’ll have to indicate which one (it’s also not a clause btw)
Here’s a brief summary:
The UK Supreme Court ruled that a lawful referendum on Scottish independence, as proposed in the draft Scottish Independence Referendum Bill, would be a major political event with significant consequences, even if it had no direct, immediate legal effect. Such a referendum would represent a democratic expression of the Scottish electorate, impacting the legitimacy of the Union and the independence movement.
Key points regarding the Supreme Court’s ruling on the proposed referendum:
Political Significance: The court concluded that a referendum on independence is not just a legal exercise but a significant “political event”.
Impact on the Union: Regardless of its legal status, a referendum would either strengthen or weaken the democratic legitimacy of the Union and the UK Parliament, influencing the independence movement’s standing.
Scope of the Bill: The Court held that the proposed Bill’s purpose was to test public opinion on a reserved matter—the Union—and thus, it exceeded the legislative competence of the Scottish Parliament.
Democratic Expression: The outcome, whether a “Yes” or “No” vote, would hold immense authority within a democracy as a direct expression of the Scottish people’s will.
Even without a direct legal obligation on the UK Government to act, a “Yes” vote could have created immense political pressure for secession, while a “No” vote might have temporarily settled the question. The Supreme Court’s decision highlighted that the political, rather than just the legal, consequences were central to the issue.

NOTE TO STU – can we please go back to the new forum? It makes highlighting things simpler.
Nothing in that judgement summary in any way aligns to what you wrote earlier does it though Geri. In fact the two are mutually contradictory, as usual.
“can we please go back to the new forum?”
Seconded. Off you trot, Geri.
Perhaps a funny thing will happen to you on the way!
Areswipe
Are you suggesting the ballot box isn’t legal?
They state otherwise.
**Such a referendum would represent a democratic expression of the Scottish electorate, impacting the legitimacy of the Union**
**would hold immense authority within a democracy**
All Scotland has to do is to turn every single election to the UK parliament a YES seat & declare independence on a majority. The ballot box holds legal authority. The vote has already been cast. The express will already demonstrated..
Or what is it you goons like to say?
“The will of the people have spoken!” Aye, that was it..
You seem to be under the illusion that the Supreme English Court ruled Scotland would be going nowhere. It didn’t. It only ruled that Holyrood, (Englands outpost/branch office) couldn’t legislate a ref & that was a shock to absolutely no-one in the independence movement. Holyrood is not a Scottish parliament. It’s an English administration.
Westminster is where Scots hold authority, in a VOLUNTARY political union.
You hack kack aww authority in Scotland. Zero, NADA, none. The Scottish people are sovereign. That remains or the Union is void.
You clearly haven’t read the case or understood it if you have. It is explicitly stated in the judgement that the referendum would not has the force of law, read paragraph’s 78 to 81, where the following important phrase is included several times: “That legislative framework is put in place because the result of a lawfully held referendum is a matter of importance in the political realm, even if it has no immediate legal consequences”.
The point of the judgement is that it would have significant political consequences, but it is never stated or implied anywhere that a vote would, by operation of law, end the union automatically. In fact, the exact opposite is explicitly stated!
Areswipe
The Supreme court ruling related to Holyrood.
& ONLY Holyrood.
Oh right, so it started off as “this proves my point” and we are now on “this has nothing to do with my point”. Of course it has everything to do with your nonsense: the case confirms that they only lawful way that the union can be dissolved is by an act of the westminster parliament, requiring a vote of at least a majority of MP’s in Westminster, so once again you make a complete idiot of yourself by proudly signposting us to authority that totally contradicts and debunks your argument.
Areswipe
Learn to read..
What I said
“Only Westminster is the recognised seat of power. They need to concentrate on winning seats there.”
It’d help if you also tried some breathing exercises before you jump in all rabid. You continually conflate Holyrood & Westminster together.
I’ll spell it out again..
Scotland wins a pro indy majority of seats in Westminster = game over.
Scotland can refuse to sit in those seats & declare UDI. The ballot box has authority. Scotland will have expressed it’s will. A “significant event” would have already taken place.
It’d be up to the English to make itself look an arse the international stage at trying to deny it.
We aren’t your possession & it’s not a territorial union. You & yer wee colonial supreme court have fck all rights to deny our exit.
So we are back where we started then aren’t we. Can you provide any legal authority to back up this latest tranche of claims?
In every general election since 2015 (bar the last one) there has been a majority of (supposedly) pro-independence MP’s returned from Scotland, so how come the union has not come to an end of what you say is true (which of course it isn’t, as usual).
“In every general election since 2015 (bar the last one) there has been a majority of (supposedly) pro-independence MP’s returned from Scotland, so how come the union has not come to an end”
Postcolonial theory explains why, and what happens to a dominant national party ‘co-opted by colonialism’:

Ah. I see the problem right there, Geri.
I guess that no matter how many times I tell you, your gonna continue to express you’re will too.
And continue to act astonished that because most people think your borderline illiterate, with a host of other defects on top, your a hopeless advocate for Scottish Indy.

But at least you’re able to post your pish all day, so keep it up to make the site’s stats look good, even though it’s clearly dying on its arse.
Still waiting for a post made on Saturday to appear… but it was actually about Scotland so what does that matter on a site which is supposedly about Scotland’s political and constitutional predicaments.
Nice to see you again Dan, hope you’ve been well.
Was the moderated post you moaning about something by any chance?
@ Aidan at 7.45 pm
Very droll ya radge. I guess you’re content with the way things are playing out on various fronts for our society, and / or you’re jist too much of an unthinking or meek subservient pipsqueak to try to hold power to account.
So when someone does try to question those in power and influence about various matters that we could undoubtably be doing better, you would try to derogatorily class that as moaning.
The post was actually a link to the ISP weekly bulletin and some comments on a particular aspect it incorporated. But as it had some moderation triggering words, it neither appeared on this thread, or an amended version over on OT.
Fucking ridiculous that trolls can circumvent the moderation triggering words day in day out, yet when matters pertaining to Scotland that require to use such words they get moderated out.
Anyway, I hope Norway and its folk are fine and able to be less affected by the increasing “global” energy market issues, what with them being a sensibly governed country and smart enough to factor in absorbing the increased cost of refining their own fossil fuel energy resources which to a degree will somewhat insulate them from the mad actions of others.
Far be it from me to be content, although I am realistic about the fact that posting on wings isn’t going to be holding anyone to any form of account.
Here in Norway, things are rosy. They’ll get the top dollar for their oil exports, meanwhile their hydroelectric remains super cheap, which is why everyone has their heating on all day. Might get a bit of a sting when I have to fuel up the XC90 I’ve rented with its 71 litre fuel tank, but it’s the car for the job on the mountain roads.
As you say, a well run country.
Tsk.
Nae fancy pieces for you today ma loon 🙂
“a well run country”
Because they are serious people and they elect serious people to run it.
Generous supporters of our fighting friends in the east, perhaps because, as with our fighting friends in the east, they have Orcs just the other side of their border.
Aware too that when the war in the east really kicks off, they occupy strategically important territory, so as with Adolf in WW2, the Orcs will invade to seize it.
Very familiar with what a ("Quizmaster" - Ed) is, for obvious reasons.
I like the Noggies. They’re great people, and the obvious political and economic destination for our Northern Isles, once the break up of the UK gets under way.
What? You think Orkney and Shetland are going to stick with rScotland?
Get real!
Yes sarah, a majority of nationalist elected members of a colonial parliament are meant to declare independence and liberate a colonized people from exploitation and oppression, for that is their primary purpose. This is also a well established method of decolonization, i.e. independence. And this is precisely what the Alliance to Liberate Scotland propose.
Swinney’s gang of imposters would have difficulty wriggling out of that, for they would clearly be seen to be siding with the colonizer and ‘sacrificing the people’ (Cesaire) by refusing to declare independence. This is essentially what the SNP/Greens have been doing since 2015, wasting several successive ‘nationalist’ majorities based on spurious excuses.
This also explains why our oppressor is keen to ensure the SNP never quite wins a majority of seats at Holyrood, and hence the crazy SNP 1+2 approach. But with Regional list nationalist MSPs of other bona fide nationalist parties added (not Greens obviously!) this should be easily achievable. Greens appear to be used by the oppressor power to prevent a bona fide ‘nationalist’ majority intent to declare independence.
Good post, Alf.
Agree with the Alliance approach, Alf, and, I also agree that the powers-that-be south of the border will be placing their sticky fingers in Scottish affairs via plants in all the parties, but especially the SNP, while believing that most of our woes are home made and home grown. That is why a majority of independence MSPs must declare UDI immediately if a majority for independence is reached. Perfectly democratic, but we need that majority. Much as I want independence, I would not push it unless a majority wanted it, which means making it clear that a vote for any member of the Alliance is a vote for independence – as would be a vote for the SNP on the constituency. A SNP vote on the List is a wasted vote. This could have been done in the elections following 2014. Sadly, we were not organised enough. Granted, a referendum would be the most democratic way, but we know that will not happen again.
Alf Baird says:
“This also explains why our oppressor is keen to ensure the SNP never quite wins a majority of seats at Holyrood”
————————————————-
2011
“The Scottish National party has won a majority in the Holyrood elections – a dramatic result that will allow its leader, Alex Salmond, to hold a historic referendum on independence for Scotland.
After a series of astonishing victories over Labour and a collapse in the Liberal Democrat vote, the SNP leader saw a landslide for his party take it beyond the 65-seat mark. Holyrood has 129 seats.”
Cause Alex asked the electorate two separate questions.
#SNP1 – to govern.
#SNP2 – to remain as FM.
New SNP
#SNP1 – to govern.
#SNP2 – just because we like to see you lock us in & everyone else out. We’d rather work with yoons. It’s an easy life. We all get to do nothing together.
Ignore him, Sarah. He’s a malfunctioning artificial ‘intelligence’… on skis. And a close friend of Julie Andrews I heard.
Why don’t you go out and get some fresh air Northcode? Would do you a world of good
Northcode: you’re always worth reading! Enjoy your day – Nil desperandum carborundum.
What an insult, sarah.
Show Northy some respect when you speak to him. Post in Scots.
“We merely require the right people in sufficient numbers to be MSPs.”
MSPs and MPs swear fealty to the King of England / UK head of state, so they can exercise devolved “English Crown in WM Parliamentary sovereignty” and be paid to do so.
To put it another way: MSPs are servants of their sovereign King of England.
So what’s Liberate’s referendum choices?
A: Vote for me if you believe Scots are sovereign and can become independent without WM consent.
B: Vote for me and I will swear fealty to the King of England / UK head of state as my Sovereign Overlord so I can exercise my sovereign King of England’s power as an MSP servant.
IF that’s the position of Liberate, it’s no a plebiscite election / referendum: it’s I also want to be yet another British MSP.

This one is about nothing in particular… like 90% of the unionist post in this place.
Here’s another pointless and meaningless comment… just like 100% of the unionist comments posted in this place.
And so we are well into the second week of chaos in the middle east which shows no sign of abating. And now the economic reality of the disruption of oil and gas and much more is becoming clear.
If the Americans thought the price of eggs were expensive the oil price shocks will very soon rattle them to their very core.
And over here in good old blighty similar if not much worse is due to come. Oil prices at the pups are already up around 9% in many fuel stations. And that is only the start. Prices are set for lift off and everything will cost much much more. We’ll not be concerned about eggs, that’s for sure.
And gas, something that Scotland had along with oil, where is that now. Well if reports are accurate, the UK is running low on gas.
Typically the UK can have up to 12 days reserves of gas which is principally stored in big caverns in the north of England and by line packing the network. But its winter, LNG is cut off from the middle east and the suggestion is that between the jigs and the reels and because it is winter reserves are down to around 2 days. The HM government issued a statement yesterday to say that everything was fine but with over 20% of the worlds oil and gas cut off and the conflagration spreading one might have grounds to suspect that HM Government statement not being quite accurate.
This looming world economic crisis may well be why there are rumours circulating that Trump and the USA military may be planning a tactical nuke attack on Iran.
Over recent days here in Scotland we have seen heavy bomber after bomber landing in Prestwick for fuelling before flying on wards to the English, but very much US air bases of Lakenheath and Fairford
And so with heavy bombers of all types what brings this armada of air attack power to our shores. Lakenheath for example is well known as a nuclear attack facility.
In the mind of Donald Trump tactical nuclear might make much sense. The USA dropped two bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki back in 1945 to send a message. Within 24 hours of Nagasaki the emperor of Japan surrendered, the message well understood not just but Japan but potentially to Stalin and the USSR.
Would the USA try such a stunt again. Well I for one do believe that the Trump regime would try the same strategy. And that I am afraid puts the potential for economic collapse into the small beer category.
Its truly great being great but from my perspective our best years, and our promised golden era, most certainly do not appear to lie before us.
Iran entered a security pact with R.
If Trump uses nukes they’ll be receiving them back.
& Japan had already surrendered when they dropped those bombs. The only mentalist that’s used them for absolutely no reason whatsoever yet they’ve the biggest gobs on who shouldn’t be allowed to have them cause they’re ummm – not to be trusted.
America can’t win this war without boots on the ground & I doubt the Kurds will be stupid. America already threw them under a bus in favour of a head chopper.
Americans need to fck off from Scotland. If England want to take part in an illegal war & illegal bombardments against civilians then piss off & let them refuel in England. This is how these tossers evade International law.
Geri: Russia is already bogged down in Ukraine and simply cannot afford to fight a second front. They might send a few drones, but it’s doubtful that they could spare boots on the ground.
Japan had not surrendered although its high command was arguing that it should. The Americans felt that they needed to drop the bombs to show the world what could happen to anyone else who felt inclined to start a war. It was horrible.
America will not put boots on the ground unless things become very much more desperate. They learned their lesson in Iraq. If they were going to attack Iran, they should have done it when the people rose up last time. It’s not a case of winning, but of crippling Iran enough to make it think twice about its alliance with China, as well as to put a halt to the nuclear programme.
Is this more words from the street, Geri?
Where you hear “word on the street” read “ranting from the asylum” – that’ll help to contextualise why this is happening.
Sorry, Aidan, I disagree.
I get a much more satisfying mind’s eye picture from the former!
No need to resort to type with yer banal childish insults. Just admit you are wrong & be on yer way.
Scotland can leave this rotten union & no amount of pish gymnastics from you goons can change that fact.

Ah honestly thocht ye micht hae twigged by noo.
YL
As per usual – historians are divided.
Countries confirmed the Japanese approached them seeking an off ramp & contacted them to be a mediator to start peace negotiations. It wouldn’t have been an unconditional surrender tho because they wanted to protect their Emperor & didn’t want invaded & broken up but they were ready to end the war.
Others claim cause they didn’t contact the USA directly then it wasn’t classed as official communication. Even tho we all know they’ve ears like shithouse rats & listen in to everything.
Others claim they knew they were wanting to quit but dropped the bomb anyway to flex to the Soviets & show American dominance.
Yet others claim, Geri, that being “ready to end the war” and “wanting to quit” isn’t the same as “had already surrendered”.
Not you obviously.
You’re so special, Geri. Don’t ever let it change you.

“Starmer sat on his hands whilst that greedy NAZI Ratcliffe closed down Grangemouth”
Good point. Who was it sat on their hands when ScotGov committed to Net Zero ahead of the rest of the UK?
You and every other fantasy-believing, head-in-the-sand, tribally-thinking Scot.
From “It’s Scotland’s Oil” to “Shut The Place Down” in a decade, courtesy of the credulous eejits lining up to vote SNP 1 & 2.
Scotland made no 1707 treaty of union with the parliament of Great Britain,
and,
Scotland made no 1707 treaty of union with the united kingdom parliament in 1801/02.
Both those parliaments are successor states to the parliament of England after England signed the treaty of union in 1706.
As the parliament of England.
There is no legal connection between Scotland and England,
Due to Englands successor State, the “parliament of Great Britain dissolving the Scottish parliament” from the parliament of Great Britain in 1707.
I thought you were going to stop doing this?
Pension settled, boredom kicking in. Happens to most who can’t muster up a decent handicap on the links.
And aren’t boring enough to prop up the 19th hole.
Think of it as a new chapter for Wings BTL – 1707 ancient guff – brought to you courtesy of our generous sponsor – the Scottish tax payer.
“James” Che
Oh Gawd !
Who dug you up again ?
Hi James,
Hope you’re settled in now and life has become a tad easier for you.
John Swinney would know this, as did Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon,
The political parties place the pretence of a union, party and parliament political pensions before the people of Scotland and England,
Starmer has no more authority than Swinney,
An absolute torrent of BTL comments today.
And not a single one about the wee jenny side.
Could it be that nobody ever really gave a tupenny damn about that? It was all pointless points scoring, virtue signalling for upticks, and scweaming “check out my saintliness” in an attempted louder voice than everybody else.
But now, tumbleweed.
Certainly makes one think, eh?
New Iranian leader is now declared a ‘living martyr’. How’s that for word play! Or in other words a dead man walking.
No one has seen the supreme leader so we’ll just take Irans word for that.
The Iranian womens football team will be gang raped and executed for not singing the national anthem. May God protect them. Then we look at the sick Lefty pro regime supporters in this country. Those who are saying Trump is Sick. Go look in the fucking mirror.
President Trump is reported to have offered the Iranian Women’s Team political asylum in the US, Mark, so things may yet work out okay for them … although I wouldn’t give good odds for any families or loved ones who may still be in Iran.
Dead man stooping more like.
He’ll be down in a tunnel like the ham ass scum.
If the surveillance drones and satellites see a concentration of women and kids being herded together, they’ll know exactly where he is underneath.
Turns out that in a country of over 90 million, the best man for the top job just happens to be the last leader’s son. What were the chances, eh?
If only thon republican boy from scotland (sic) was still on here. It would be fucking priceless to witness him tying himself in knots justifying hereditary kingship.
Iran has a constitution.
Something you eejits never do understand, must be cause you don’t have one of your own. It means something to other countries.
Stop swallowing Western propaganda.
The new leader has been democratically elected. He’s a religious leader. Trump & his minions were delusional to even think he’d get to hand pick his own. It’d be like suggesting Trump should sit at councils & choose the next Archbishop of Canterbury. Behave yourself , ya uncultured heathens.
Same with all those military ppl they assassinate. Another one is elected. Who knew countries would adjust! You’d think it’d sink in by now.
Iran is a Republic. More democratic than it’s Issy counterpart. It doesn’t want a tyrant Sha no matter how much you try impose one on them or try return the evil knt they already ran out of town.
Those women – it’d be hilarious if Trump dumped them in “the first safest country they reach” eh? I advocate Blighty.
& Isn’t it hilarious to remember back when Corbyn didn’t sing along to the jack anthem & you Muppets were ready to lynch him? Pack away yer fake hankie…
Hypocritters…
Oh FFS, Geri.
Get some help. Please.
Their constitution just permitted between 20,000 and 30,000 of their citizens to be killed, gunned down like dogs, with total impunity for the killers, because the victims didn’t like the leader of the last government.
WTAF is wrong with you?
Why TAF does the Scottish Indy movement permit itself to be fouled and tainted by this kind of hysterical lunatic?
Is Indy so fucking desperate for support that it will cling on even to the likes of this eejit?
Calm yersel, shitface. You’ll do yersel an injury.
Are you sure it wisnae ten million they gunned down? Whit about the weans – are they still being stuffed in ovens? You lot don’t deal in facts much do you? The usual playbook isn’t working -especially with the dawn of the internet.
It’s very simple, Shiteface. No one likes colonisers. I told you, it’s so last century robbing other countries around the world. The grift is over.
Every country has a right to defend itself. It doesn’t take too kindly to the Anglo American Issy boasting it’ll break them up into tiny wee states run by hand selected tyrant puppets while riding roughshod, yet again, over international law & sparking yet another illegal war in its constant quest to destabilise whole regions.
They’re fighting to protect their Sovereignty. They won’t be balkanised. They’ve stood up to a bully. Nice to know you’d prefer to sit down.
There’s nothing wrong with me but everything wrong with you if you think this behaviour is still acceptable. It’s up to the people of Iran to change their leader, not some Muppet the other side of the world.
Lest we forget – they were in negotiations. TWICE America ambushed them as well as carry out assassinatios. Twice they were told they’d agree to all of the two property developers demands. They also had a legal & binding UN agreement over enrichment that Trump tore up.
They were also the ones sparking civil unrest. It didn’t work. They were also the ones who attacked first.
I suggest you go have a wee lie down. The Hegemony is over. Even Gulf States are now telling you to fuck off. Well done. Rather than regime change Iran it looks like it’ll be Trump that’s gone & so will Yahoos – when they can find where he’s fucked off to. His people have no electricity & they’re crying.
Why on earth would an independence supporter support Colonialism? I love seeing the underdog ‘take em to the fucking cleaners’ Lolz
Yer not very bright are you?
Oh aye, forgot to mention, the first day they were bombed they came out onto the streets in their millions. Not to overthrow their government but to unite behind it.
That doesn’t fit the Colonisers narrative does it? Far from celebrating the demise of their leader they allegedly despised -they United in condemning the attack along with a school full of weans that we now all know was *double tapped* by Hegseth orders. That’s a war crime to add to the many other war crimes of attacking civilians.
America can’t even get it’s narrative straight of why, when they were getting all their own way with negotiations, they just attacked them anyway proving it was nothing to do with enrichment, women, democracy or any other of their shit excuses they like to trumpet.
Well good on them for not rolling over & it’s all the more delicious that it’s backfired spectacularly & it’s all of their own making. Now the whole region wants Trump & his minions to fuck off out of the middle east & his own support want him to fuck off out of the whitehouse. It’s not going to end well.
On the bright side, areswipe will now see live updates to Americas economy tanking..lol Every cloud..
They’ve the nerve to ask the Chinese to help them.
Umm, nope!
“the first day they were bombed they came out onto the streets in their millions”
Thocht it wis tens o millions, Geri.
Try tae mind fit ye pebble dash, at least atween consecutive posts, fer consistency’s sake.
The ironic thing Geri is in a medieval totalitarian dictatorship like Iran a gobshite like you would quickly find yourself in a lot of trouble very quickly. It’s the freedom allowed to you by the comparatively very free and democratic country within which you live that ironically allows you to spout of this deluded mad nonsense day in day out without sanction.
“the comparatively very free and democratic country within which you live” ??
That forced Brexit on Scots agin oor wull?
That repeatedly blocks electoral mandates for indyref2?
That controls an Anglo media narrative?
That aye taks us tae wars agin oor wull?
That pits US nuclear weapons, aircraft, sodjers on Scots land agin oor wull?
Westminster daes whit it likes on oor laund an tae oor fowk! That’s colonialism, a scourge on a people.
Without sanction?
Well look at you, ya wee totalitarian areswipe.
Guess whit, sunshine. I don’t live in Iran. What that country does & how it governs itself is absolutely fuck all to do with me & even less to do with you. You should try it sometime but we all know you can’t cause yer a wee manky racist coloniser & you need to create fictitious grievance so you can justify mowing down civilians so you can rob them blind & strip them of their wealth.
Have you ever actually fucking liberated anyone? No.
Is anyone ever in a better position when you invade their country? No.
Have you any evidence of these WMD? No.
Have you any evidence they’re about to attack you? No. (Which is a bit rich considering you parasites are in their countries thousands of miles away)
Iran isn’t totalitarian. Who WAS totalitarian was the Sha the Brits imposed on them & ran Iran with an iron fist. They run him out of town. They don’t want his descendants back. Ever.
They’re a Republic with democratic institutions.
Are you upset they’re not embracing “Western values” & having TRAs telling them where they’re going wrong with Islam?
Why are you so upset about women & children in Iran but mowing them down in Pally is perfectly fine ?
Off you pop ya fake grievance monkey. No one is buying yer shite. The Empire is over & England is right up shit creek with no mates. You are despised at the United Nations. No seat for you in the future other than at the Hague.
Iran is a republic with democratic institutions, alright I don’t think I’m going to waste my time arguing with that level of ignorance or stupidity.
Although incidentally Iran does practice (forceable) gender transitions.
“in a medieval totalitarian dictatorship like Iran”
That medieval country is whipping your ass good & proper!
You racist colonisers always try make out you’re far superior to everyone else. You aren’t. They’re far more advanced & far more sovereign than you’ll ever be. You’ll get a real taste of it soon cause if there’s one thing Uncle Sam excells at it is a grudge. They’re still banging on & on about the Iranian embassy hostage situation fae nearly fifty hrs ago. Zzzzzsz..
Why? Cause the Anglo American was shielding yet another war criminal seeking shelter in the USA along with all the Naz before him…there’s a pattern here eh? Clue – yer not the good guys here.
Same with yer occupation in Afghanistan. Save the poppies! Man the fields! Fck all to do with liberating anyone. You’re the terrorists.
Same with yer pish that only thieving colonisers know how to look after other countries priceless artifacts cause they’re backwards. It’s theft, pure & simple. The Jackanory tell us a story has run out of road.
Your own shite hole isn’t exactly thriving is it? It’s becoming more & more totalitarian by the day as the elites traffic weans for torture through Romania. Away & sit down at thinking you’ve the moral high ground on how other countries govern.
Fits this, Aidan?
Have you been “mowing down civilians so you can rob them blind & strip them of their wealth”?
Goannay no dae that. Jist goannay no.
Is it universally true then, Alf, that scrape off the blue pent on every Scot Nat and you find someone longing for Brussels rule underneath?
I couldn’t help noticing what is uppermost on your grievance list.
Maybes it’s just the whiners on here.
“elites traffic weans for torture through Romania”
That’ll be because they drive on the same side of the road.
Be off with you then..
They have the exact same institutions as we do except you have a monarch that wishes he was a Tampax & talks shit to plants all day & passes on his shit to his eldest delinquent when he pops his clogs .. he also pretends not to interfere in politics even though everything needs royal ascent, he chooses the government & has weekly briefings.
While their head of state is elected & they don’t have a monarchy. They don’t want one imposed on them either like the British imposed on them.
The proof is in the pudding tho. I doubt millions will grieve worldwide when Chucky shuffles off.
The lies they wanted to overthrow their leader didn’t exactly play out did it?
The propaganda is strong in you but to be expected.
Either way, Iran is fck all to do with you. They don’t need your brand of ‘help’. They’re perfectly capable of conducting a revolution themselves. They’ve done it before without your help.
“longing for Brussels rule”
The point was about ‘democracy’ Hatey, and on such matters the Scots decided at the time to remain in the EU; but we were forced out of the EU by the dominant oppressor power – England.
This is not about whether the EU is good or bad, it is about a sovereign people having the right to decide the form of governance best suited to them.
Just as Scots are still being blocked by England’s parliament and courts from our right to self-determination.
And from deciding on matters of war and peace. etc etc etc
In colonial terminology Scots are ‘out of the game’, and made ‘bystanders in our own land’. That is how a colonized people are regarded, as a nobody, an irrelevance, as invalid, and when it suits the doun-hauder/oppressor, as ‘Untermenschen’.
Ah, c’moan noo, Geri.
Ah cannae be the only ane who thinks the “royal ascent” is something special tae witness. Few, probably nae, commoners could iver dae it.
Ah’d love tae see ye trying it! And nae because Ah’d be peeking up yer bloomers either. Like yer F16s, ye’d naiver get aff the groond.
Sae dinna stairt that.
‘Iran does practice (forceable) gender transitions’
Whit? Like the West does?
It wasn’t that long ago sleepy Joe was offering free surgery to anyone signing up to the military to be cannon fodder.
Do they indoctrinate weans with mind bending nonsense they’re born in the wrong body in schools? Offer them chemical sterilisation before they’ve even reached the age to vote? How about experiments on the mentally ill?
How about chemically castrating Turing – the very person who cracked the code.
Yer own shit don’t smell so great does it? Hypocritter.
Yet again, Alf, havers.
The Scots, as sovereign people, never went into the EU’s precursor.
It was the UK that went in. It was a treaty between the EU and the UK. It was the UK that left, after a UK vote.
The time to worry about whether the component parts of the UK should have had separate treaties with the EU was when we went in.
I stand to be corrected if anybody so much as raised it as an issue at the time. Do correct me if I’m wrong, providing the requisite links.
“Dragged oot agin oor will” continues to be a synthetic grievance, an offshoot of the “Independence In Europe” trope, foundationed on lies, propagated by those with an ulterior motive, for the befuddlement of eejits.
“Iran isn’t totalitarian.”
Oh really, “Geri”? They were literally hosing down thousands of their own innocent men, women and children merely WEEKS ago – to die in the streets of their towns and cities, for having the temerity to exercise free speech and peaceful protest.
But yeah. Yooookay BAAAAD.
I know some here are amused by your witless fuckwittery (I’m not one of them and much prefer it when you get another enforced “break”), but even by your own standards that’s off the scale. It’s tempting to think that this is somehow very poor taste satire on your part, but no. You really are THAT thick.
Oh do piss off.
The whole world knows those protesters were protesting America crushing their economy. Even Bessent, over at the WEF, gloated to the minions that was exactly what they were doing to force regime change. Meanwhile Issy & the CIA sent in operatives to cause trouble, burn mosques & kill law enforcement while TACO was lying & gloating they were on the streets begging for him to come liberate them. They weren’t . It failed. They didn’t overthrow their government. They didn’t start a revolution. They didn’t want the USA – the last time I read any updates – Iran is going to publish every name & nationality of the dead. That will make interesting reading eh?
The West also can’t seem to get their story straight. First it was enrichment, that failed when they agreed terms. Then it was regime change – that failed. Then it’s cause Yahoo was going to attack so they thought it best to do it for them… Now Taco is attempting the truth – they’re all animals & he’s liberating no one. They’ll be balkanised & he’ll hand pick the puppets…
When they can’t get their story straight it’s a massive clue they’re lying. If sections of Iran wanted liberated they certainly don’t now after mowing down civilians.
As per usual, you savages don’t stick to military targets.
You seem to forget that Iran can communicate to the outside world – unlike the censorship we’re supposed to enjoy in this free country you speak of where the news is heavily suppressesd & filtered by another fuck country thousands of miles away LOL!
Sit down, wackadoo.
“I’m not one of them and much prefer it when you get another enforced “break”)”
FYI, I’ve never had an enforced break, fuckwit.
Unlike you.
Facts eh? They never are a yoons strong point.
“Facts eh? They never are a yoons strong point.”
Yeah, silly me eh? Here am I, thinking that murdering tens of thousands of your own innocent people in the streets – for having the temerity to peacefully protest and exercise free speech against their monstrous regime of a government – constitutes a “totalitarian” state.
All this happened weeks ago, with the eyes of the world looking on in abject horror. And here YOU are, “Geri”, extolling those wonderful Iranian governmental virtues and supposed constitution. You fucking imbecile.
“Facts” … lol. I mean, it would be fucking funny, if the subject matter wasn’t so appalling (Btw, even if it was the case that those people were protesting at western sanctions and not their government [it wasn’t], how is this any sort of get out of jail card to carry out mass murder…)
Your next ban can’t come quick enough pal.
Good to see you back CC, as you’ll see not much has changed whilst you were away. The peaceful democratic republic of Iran (which apparently democratically elected its latest leader, in a process that with no preparation lasted a whole week, and lead to the election of the last leaders son).
Sorry pressed submit before I finished typing, that should say that Iran is the latest despotic dictatorship Geri is fawning over. Quite why more people on here aren’t calling out this deranged nonsense is something I can’t understand.
“which apparently democratically elected its latest leader, in a process that with no preparation lasted a whole week, and lead to the election of the last leaders son).”
Dumbo! Repeat after me. Constitution.
CONSTITUTION.
Learn what these things are. I know it must be difficult cause you don’t have one.
It’s not a public election, ya eejit, but by a vote of 88 members who have been.
I’ll tell you what’s “despotic” tho – having an eejit that thinks they have a devine right to rule & elevated by absolutely no one. Did you get to vote on who the Pope was? Who succeeded Queenie?
You lot of ignoramuses are such hypocritters. We see you. Iran = bhhhaaad! They do evil things. Saudi Arabia= they’re our best buddies! We’ll just ignore their human rights abuses. So what if they give journalists acid baths. GCC states = they’re our buddies too! So what if they send child snuff porn to Eppy! They’re our bestest friends in the whole wide world.
As for trying to instigate a pile on – fuck off, ya gutless prick. Anyone with a mediocre of sense knows you colonial thieving fckwits couldn’t give a shiny shite about “poor Iranians”
You don’t have democracy in your own country so wtf are you to try spread it elsewhere?
We all know it’s really racist Empire stealing other countries wealth & I just love it when you get a smack down. Especially funny is when you underestimate your opponent. The entire West is corrupt as fck & run by unhinged nutters literally eating humans – yet it’s everyone else that’s the savages.
My favourite austrian painters are egon schiele and gustav klimt, but this guy has potential

art can be a pathway for us all, very relaxing; I often do it in my living room
nazis, nazis, nazis – if they didn’t exist, we would invent them to make us look good in comparison; but the more I read I about the british empire the more it hits me –
we were THE REAL NAZIS all along
– it’s the tell of the psychopath; they accuse YOU (falsely) of DOING WHAT THEY DID
concentration camps
ethnic cleansing
gen0cide by famine
slavery
torture
lies, propaganda
dirty dealings
land grabbing
looting
racial supremacy as an ideology
bombing civilians from the air, dropping incendiaries in the dark
use of chemical weapons
that’s your ANGLOS right there
but it’s alright when we do it : AND WE WROTE THE FUCKING HISTORY BOOKS YA DIM CUNT ! All those fucking oxford p00fs, being impartial and rational, giving an honest account.
the dirty secret : Adolph FUCKING LOVED THE BRITISH EMPIRE – lives of a bengal lancer with errol flynn his favourite; he never wanted war, he wanted to go “tag team”
– he was a pure fanboy, why he went easy at dunkirk. He had this racial view which went thus : the english “anglo saxons” are just “germans who took the boat 1000 years ago”, and americans are really just “english who took the boat 300 years ago”. So, all the “white men” are really just germans.
We are all germans, we will rule the world and do some kind of a deal.
A dirtier secret, a lot of the english upper class were well into this idea, and not just batty sluts like the mitford sisters, even the royal family (- churchill prevented this, at the behest of the people who were paying his debts). In the aftermath of the war anthony blunt got sent over to germany to “recover” various embarrassing documents. Top. Secret. Mission.
It all gets murkier when you come across jabotinsky and realise the current issy leaders are all his followers; you make the connection –
zionism and national socialism are parallel ideologies
– they both believe in the concept of “the master race”, but simply disagree on who this is
Given what is happening now and the wider ramifications – I would fill up my fuel tank before prices go nuts (and the oil companies won’t hesitate) – folks need to edumacate themselves; for example this time of year, purim is coming up, has a special significance for the tribalists and their batshit religion (it’s all about esther and persia). The timing is not an accident (and all wars are religious wars). Then you need to do some background reading about – the red heifer, the third temple, the coming of the “moshiach” (antichrist), and the apocalyptic worldview that the powerful cult, the chabad lubavitch, hold. Plenty pics of Trump kissing their arse, and his election victory was credited, by them, to him visiting the rebbe’s grave, the rebbe being mendel schneerson, a truly loathsome individual. No such thing as “anti semitism” – it is called NOTICING, i.e. use of your pattern recognition and bayesian probability filters
– this apocalyptic worldview squares right in with “christian zionism” with the tribulation, end times, rapture – this is fuckwitted nonsense made up by protestants (catholics don’t believe in all that).
The trouble with “prophecy” is : it becomes self fulfilling if the powerful believe in it. If the whack-jobs really are in charge, we are fucked, its gamesabogey, but even the rational “international law in the rules based order” types are purest fucking evil, consider the cunning plans of western “liberal democracy” :
– bomb brown people in foreign lands for bullshit reasons (liberal democracy humanitarian responsibilty to protect womens rights trannyism – never about oil, gold in central banks or geopolitical gangsterism and power moves)
– import as many of the survivors as you can into western countries for additional bullshit reasons (diverse vibrancy multiculturalism – never about class war, greed, cheap labour, hatred of the indigenous)
then tell everyone how happy everyone is, despite much evidence to the contrary; double down on anyone who thinks otherwise; set the droogs on them. Call them fascists. Despite being the cunts who are bombing the cunts, we are never fascists, but purveyors of democratic western liberalism with enlightenment values.
Still, if you can’t beat them, join them; scottish indy needs to contemplate an “ANGLO-SUNG”, in which we can make Scotland, finally free, i.e. ANGLO-FREI
– ANGLO RAUS!
we have been siamese-twinned to the worst people on earth for 300 years and we need a rest.
It’s the coming of the men in white coats you need to be worrying about.
Anybody make it to the end? Bet there was lots about bum sex!
Yes Confused- End Times, Rapture, Armageddon, Second Coming – people like Hegseth are batshit crazy and a danger to us all.
What’s your beef with batshit?
Compared to some I could mention, batshit is the very epitome of calm rationalism.
Well it started like a rabid dog chained to a traffic cone, and the less said about the middle the better, then dribbled towards a global orgasmic ending. Nothing about bumming but lots about rimming.
Well, having perused all the comments posted here today I think I can say that us Scottish liberation seeking Scots on here thrashed the English (if they aren’t they should be) colonialists.
Those unionists don’t stand a chance against our superior Scots wit and humour.
Well done, everyone… and thanks Sarah for your kind words of support.
Wit and humour win the day, Northcode! 🙂
“Well done, everyone”
Is that the same people you were telling to get tae fuck yesterday?
It is very disturbing to see some of the comments on here supporting the evil regime of inbred gangsters. What it has revealed is how low the Leftwing thinking head will go to justify their ideology. Once one cause is exposed or deflated they squarm about looking for another cause. As long as it hates Trump they will swallow it. Parasites feeding from the host cause. This state of affairs exists because a number of people can’t think for themselves. Shite sticks.
O/T: Assisted Dying Bill vote in Holyrood tomorrow. The dangers of this Bill are obvious – just look at what happens in Canada – doctors and everyone else involved can make very dubious decisions.. Just drop a line to your MSPs if you agree that the subject needs far more safeguards than are provided by this Bill.
Stop, sarah! First consider how you could use this to eliminate people who disagree with you.
Take your time, at least, to think things through.
Stop voting for these people. They have no mandate.
Another good example of why that place should be closed. Idle hands are the devils workshop. These eejits just invent ways to waste money on shit no one voted for just to piss off the entire country.
Scotland doesn’t need any more population control than it’s already suffered.
I’m afraid the colonialists who insist on posting here long after they have lost the day to the wit and humour of the liberty seeking Scots in this place are only wasting fingertip skin.
The cutoff for the days ‘debate’ was 9pm… better luck tomorrow, colons (colonysts if preferred) – you’ll need all you can get if your colon efforts today are anything to go by – I don’t think I’ve ever read so much colonial shit in the one sitting.
In Scots:
Colon, n.[L. col?nus.] A colonist. Also colonys, colonyst.
Mony o thame vnderstude the latyne toung as colonys of Romanis
I like it, Northy! A straight crib from the President Donald Trump playbook.
Declare victory when the fecht’s hairdly … Ach, ah hivnae the hert tae push ma advantage hame.
Bit maybes ask some kindly boady ye trust tae explain where Indy is really at richt noo. Mak sure yer moo is stapped wi cairpet aforehand – ye divnae want tae bicht oaf yer tongue!
My killer post, that sailed high above all the petty cares of unionists and nationalists alike, and thus thoroughly floored all other Earthbound posts, went into ‘moderation’, never to appear. This is clearly corruption of the highest and most blatant order which renders all quotidian post ranking efforts as worthless.
Geri says:
“Why on earth would an independence supporter support colonialism?”
An excellent question, best answered by the pootfans whose support for the coloniser over the past 4+ years has never wavered.
The pootfans being headed up by, (drum roll), oor Geri hersel.
Sven.
Good morning to you, settling in fine thanks for asking, still delays in pension though, so I guess I will drop a post in now snd again until the rogue civil servants fullfil their duties they are paid for.
And keep repeating the conversation regards there being no treaty between Scotland and the Great Britain parliament or Scotland and the UK parliament until the penny drops in Scotland.
It annoys the heck out of colonial globalist, thats satisfying recorded history they cannot contest in of itself.
And eventually the people of Scotland will pick up on the information and come to terms with the faux situation of the treaty.
But so far they ( colonialists and globalist) have failed to historically disprove it,
They Just bluster and try changing the subject as quickly as possible, but never have they never been able disprove the topic
Something people in Scotland should pay attention too.
“keep repeating the conversation … until the penny drops in Scotland”
I am quite unable to comprehend whether or not you have a valid point, James.
Frankly, I don’t care either.
But, as you are getting nowhere on here, if you really are convinced you’re onto something big, should you perhaps consider trying a new approach?
Writing to MSPs. Publishing letters in the press. Crowdfunding adverts on bus shelters. TikTok rap routines about 1707. There will be other ideas, even better – ask around for suggestions.
Just a wee thought.
Good morning, James.
Keep up the good work. If you weren’t right the colonysts wouldn’t be attacking you.
And you are correct… the more times over the same material the greater the understanding.
Or, as you put it, the more likely it is that the penny will eventually drop.
All joking aside, Northy, your post is actually quite cruel.
At least by comparison with my own well meant suggestions.
I suspect you’re like most of them on here. Long since resigned to the reality you’ll never live to see Scottish Independence, but happy enough to pointlessly points score until your faculties decay to zero.
The nuanced “politics” of a blazing Old Firm fanatic at a title clincher, in other words.
Scotland only had a treaty with the parliament of England in 1707,
Not the successor State of the parliament of Great Britain.
And the union globalist cannot alter that fact,
Good morning all you liberty seeking Scots out there in here… ready to give those Inglis(if they aren’t they should be) colons whit loiter aboot this place another thorough drubbing today?
It isn’t a fair fight, really. But who cares, they brought it on thersels.
Those Inglis colons used up all their ‘better together’ ammunition a decade ago.
Still, it can be fun watching them trying to reload their used up blank ‘arguments’ and try to convince us liberty seeking Scots that Scotland and England are STILL better together when ten years worth of evidence proves that the exact opposite is the truth.
Tally ho, my fellow Scots… and may the day bring us Scottish libertarians yet another glorious victory.
An independence supporter would think of the word “Colonialism” when no treaty can be found linking or existing between Scotland and The parliament of Great Britain or the parliament of the UK.
North code.
Good Morning,
Reference to your last post at 8: 50 am,
We must remember that it is not just Scotland and Ireland or Wales that have been fooled by the hoax of a supposed treaty, the people of England were also fooled,
It is of great interest that the people of England have had their borders taken hostage by global laws, that they are not actually part of due to not being linked to Scotland as the parliament of Great Britain.
It is of note that the people of England lost their Sovereignty of the people to the hoax Great Britain State parliament by transferring not electing, the parliament of England directly into the new branded parliament of Great Britain in 1706/07.
The door in is the same door out.
Scotlands most frightened are no different in context than Englands most frightened. Either that or their both very innocent of historical records.
As “Hatey” once said on wings The Treaty is old guff,
It’s really not, James/Hatey. Let’s find out, shall we? Post the SE?
“The Treaty is old guff”
Tho the colonizer does tend to bring out these mankit violated treaties ‘whenever colonialism is imperiled’ or questioned, because that is the ‘legal basis’ justifying continued colonial rule over annexed territories such as Scotland.
The magic of Wings or the demise of Alba – whatever the reason, the donation numbers have increased to the Alliance to Liberate Scotland Holyrood 2026 on http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk. Now at 25% of target. Empty your pockets and check behind the cushions on the sofa to help this campaign, please.
And talk to all Alba supporters to get them on board.
Dig deep. Your grifters need you.
Mind and ask not fit they can dae fer ye.
Have you seen the latest article from the bitter and twisted ScotGoesMadonIndy.
It appears I have been volunteered for something I did not volunteer for 😮
Is conscription coming for us all?
I expect most posters on here will be no better than Home Guard material. That also means you, YL.
Perhaps Alf/Northy could tell us what the Scots is for Godfrey.

You have to be joking “old boy”!
Scotchland Office seat warmers like yerself would probably be exempt from conscription, even though aR8e bandits (again) like yerself are NOW allowed in.
Better brush up on yer Call Of Duty experience as one of the burgeoning handset warriors the world seems over-run by..
Personally, Home Guard?, well I’m quite happy to revisit happy days and serve again with proper calibre weapons and low tech stylie take em down in the passes, Swiss old style, particularly once EMP devices renders high tech “safe from a distance” janniseries like yourself obsolete overnight!
You talk about things you have absolutely no clue about W8nker..
Lorncal,
What homework are you asking me to do for you exactly?
Rev Stuart Campbell.
Likewise,
It seems some are not capable to apply thought, research and action for themselves and need a shoulder to lean on,
Geri: the Scottish MPs are outvoted 10 times over and can never, ever affect the Westminster vote. That is just fact based on numbers. Had we won the 2014 referendum, they would have had to acknowledge our right to go and start negotiations, based on the Treaty, to divi up the assets – only the assets because they would shoulder the liabilities in order to remain rUK. Otherwise, the whole kit and caboodle goes and bye bye UK. Scotland gone. Wales gone. N Ireland gone. I suspect, in the event we went, they would, too, post haste, and, truth be told, it would be the best thing that could happen to all four parts, including England.
It is only in Scotland, and only at Holyrood, that we can withdraw from the Union. As I said, that will require an outright majority of independence seats – and not a tiny majority either, but something above 51%. That is the whole point of the Alliance which, if anyone on here, actually wants to see independence, should be your List vote. If the Alliance can scoop the majority of the List seats and the SNP + any other independence party on the constituency vote (the Alliance will try to contest a few) that will do the job – but UDI must be immediate thereafter, no shilly-shallying.
That will leave both Westminster and the SNP (and Holyrood) on the back foot, basically confronting Westminster. The SNP would try to not declare independence, probably backed to the hilt by the Unionists, but it will trigger a tsunami of protest if it tries that. Every ballot paper must make it absolutely clear that a vote for any independence party or independence-supporting individual or Alliance candidate is a clear vote for independence. Voting SNP 1 and then, also 2, will deliver stasis, the status quo or put an English nationalist party, like Reform, in the running in Scotland. By the way, Alba refugees should vote Alliance.
Any woman with a modicum of sense should not vote Green or Lib Dem.
“withdraw from the Union”
There is no need to withdraw from something that does not exist.
Scotland was annexed, according to Professor Black, and the treaty was never implemented; England’s parliament was never dissolved, it continued:

“no need to withdraw from something that does not exist”
My exact response to every one of those crowdfunding grifters, perpetually on here with their hands out for freebies.
How come you never say a word to them, Alf?
Lorncal,
Sorry to interrupt and to be rude, but what planet are you on?
Scotland was dissolved from the Treaty of Union by the Monarch of England and the parliament of England sitting in the parliament of Great Britain in the year 1707.
England did it for us in 1707,
Scotland has not entered into a second union treaty with England since 1707.
You cling to this like mamas titty.
On the contrary, in the paternalist colonial society it is the colonized native as dependent ‘child’ who clings to the ‘mother country’ for comfort and security, unwilling to open the door of liberation.
‘You cling to this like mamas titty’
Says the monarchist who clings to something out the dark ages. Where men still prance about in tights & stupid outfits that give the cringe.
All that guff is the reason you even have a parliament to begin with or it’d be just little old blighty on its own some. Whatever would you do then?
When did the independence debate sink into colonial cryin’ and threats. I must say that a threat from a Nasty Nat is as scary as Scary movie 3.
The only thing I can find as a positive about the ” kinetic event ” in the gulf is that the site trolls/troll will have some new scenery in their flight simulator where they can bomb primary schools to their heart’s content and give us peace. Kinetic event makes special military operation look mild for a serious war but that is where we are.
“mild”
Is that the Scots for over a million casualties?
20 IRGC sponsored terror attacks in the Union of Kingdoms have been stopped by MI5 in the last 2 years. I would like to thank MI5 on behalf of freedom loving people on this ancient isle.
The things that Transgenderism and Islamic terrorism have in common is their ability to infiltrate and use Socialist administrations for their own ends and their fear of women.
He does these video from mummy’s house, I hope. Ornament refers to something that enhances the appearance of an object by adding decorative elements that are not essential. Clutter can make a room look untidy and I would presume it could also have an effect on one’s well being.
There’s bigger fish to fry than indulge into to the mind of someone who doesn’t know from one day to next who the enemy is.
