Knives Out - Indy PosterBoy Did you know that knife crime in Scotland is less than half that in England and Wales?

Men who shout at hotels are not protecting women Far-right groups protest about asylum accommodation in Aberdeen, claiming to be protecting women, but they regularly target women for abuse

Scotland must defend and protect refugees. They are not the problem in our society.

We must repudiate the far right in Scotland. They're the problem.

We have to turn out in huge numbers to reject the politics of hate.

#Scotland, if you've ever worn a poppy, you should turn your back on the neo-fascism which underpins #ReformUK

I want what John Swinney has promised us … an established route to independence as well as real and significant progress towards bringing that into reality. Whatever patience I’ve had waiting for that progress is fast running out, writes Richard Walker ✍️

"The SNP get one list seat in Highlands/Islands, otherwise all FPTP.
Pro-Indy = 71. *RefUK* opposition.
Below is 'what if 1/2 SNP2 vote SGP2 instead.'
Pro-Indy = 84. *SGP* opposition."

I would argue @plaidcymru.bsky.social are internationalists working to embed a civic nationalism, a 'if you live here you are from here' nationalism, similar to the movement for #ScottishIndependence by @snp.org and @scottishgreens.org in Scotland.

Bar chart showing the published BBC Savanta poll figures of 51% Yes and 49% No
It also shows how this would look if we used ‘normal’ voting patterns from Ipsos

To highlight how bizarre that BBC Scotland #indyref poll from Savanta was, I applied yesterday’s Ipsos voting figures to the 2014 Yes sample in the Savanta poll. These were 71% /18% /10% (Yes/No/DK). This gives us a 60% Yes vote (excluding don’t knows).

This is a very good poll for the SNP; with a huge lead on both votes. It also shows further evidence of the stalling of Reform UK who had peaked at around 22%.

You get more pro-indy MSPs by voting as follows:
#SNP1SGP2 or #SNP1Greens2
NOT #BothVotesSNP

The only proviso is on the constituency vote, in the few where the SGP could win it v the SNP.

Check polling and see who is most likely to win & go with them.

That noise you hear is people across England suddenly realising that blocking Reform by voting Green (historically a 'wasted' vote) *is* a realistic prospect. Go for it, England.

SNP voters: you're never going to win list seats, because you absolutely mop up in constituencies -and good on you

Please consider giving your list vote to the Scottish Greens. A list vote for the SNP equates to no extra seats in Holyrood, whereas just a few percentage extra can lead to more Greens
