Why didn't @BBCScotlandNews and @STVNews not get the views of those independence supporters outside the parliament on the day it voted for #indyref2 ?
The National@ScotNational
Pro-independence supporters have gathered outside Holyrood 🏴 It comes after the Scottish Parliament voted to call on Westminster to devolve the powers which would allow it to hold a second independence referendum
English
Fun fact
The Scottish government has no say in when cases come to court, that's a matter for the CPS and the Procurator Fiscal.
Neil Findlay@Neilsocialist
The delay of the Murrell case until after the Scottish election absolutely stinks
English
@kccrusso Remember when a majority of Scotland voted to remain in the UK but the minority of bad losers insisted on voting in the same shower of incompetent crooks for the next 3 elections as revenge?
English
remember when not a single area in scotland voted to leave the eu but we left anyways cause the english wanted to 👍

BREAKING: The UK Government has responded after the Scottish Parliament called for Westminster to devolve powers to hold a second independence referendum A Downing Street spokesperson said the Labour Government 'does not support independence or another referendum'
English
@usmanakhtar00 And pretending you can magic a referendum every election probably isn't making that situation any more likely, is it ?
English
the only way we get independence is if there is a mass movement behind it that forces westminster's hand and that's just not happening

@PaulaCoyscot It is embarrassing. So why did you vote for her?
English
Elderly women like Susan are currently cross checking pics of Nicola Sturgeon with the detailed list of plundered goods and making pics with hand drawn green arrows pointing at suspected item. That’s where we’re at today. Scotland is so shit at this it’s embarrassing.
Susan Dalgety@DalgetySusan
Now that Sturgeon knows some of her possessions (Montblanc pens, Smythson bags, oak library steps…) are ‘possibly’ the proceeds of crime, has she taken steps to hand them to the police?
English
@SconeOf They don't give a fuck. They suckered you into giving them another 5 years, and they can relax now having gone through the motions.
English
While i’m a patient kind of yesser who never believed we could get indy without solid decent constant yes majority, I think the snp will be fully derailed if they don’t ramp up a plan B and draw the attention of the world to scotland’s plight by any means necessary
English
@PeatWorrier The justice system would in fact have fewer convictions of any kind if all people, including those who were guilty as hell, took this pragmatic approach.
English
I appreciate it is all very interesting to pretend this is a strange thing for a person to do - but the right to silence is a basic ECHR right and the evidence suggests the justice system would have fewer wrongful convictions to contend with if more people exercised it.
English
Lots of things can be true at once. Here's my best reckoning with the absurdity of the Murrell admissions this week. Firstly - he deserves for the book to be thrown at him for his sustained, cynical & indefensible breach of trust over a long period. White collar crime is serious.
English
@theSNP The brass neck to come out with this shit after the week you've been having.
English
@Tam_T_Bam @paulhutcheon Covid has been over for 5 years Tam, you can take off the mask
English
@paulhutcheon It's kinda pathetic now Paul. Borderline creepy this obsession of yours. Feels like a a cry for help, and you are consumed with the emptiness and misogynist rage.
English
@thomsonrichardg But seriously - it's an impossibility to put two things first, even if we stretch credibility by accepting you're not putting yourself first. Pick one.
English
Another big squad in Kincorth tonight!
The results are clear: only the SNP can be trusted to put Aberdeen and Scotland first. 🏴
#ActiveSNP
Aberdeen, Scotland 🇬🇧 English
@IrishUnity Respectfully: fuck off and address your own problems.
English
The Scottish Parliament has voted to back calls for an independence referendum.
The union is cracking at the seams & the growing demand for independence in Scotland, Wales and Ireland cannot be ignored.
People are looking for a future beyond the shackles of Westminster chaos.
English
@EdWatling @JohnnyDundee 😂
I'd love them to do that after this week.
English
@JohnnyDundee The SNP does have a way to break this deadlock, resign from Government, call a Scottish election and cause a constitutional crisis
English
The Scottish Government is going to have to stop asking the UK Government what it can do and start telling it what is going to happen, then force the UK Government into attempting to stop it. x.com/ScotNational/s…

@John_Arab @JohnnyDundee Mate, this is a niche obsession. It barely even makes the news anymore. Move on with your life.
English
@JohnnyDundee We need to formally make the request after the vote in parliament, then if the UK Government formally reject it, then move onto the next steps. Thing The National and others have jumped the gun here, still need to go through the formal process surely.
English
@JohnnyDundee Just fucking hold one and then try to explain why a 95% leave vote on 12% turnout isn't an utter embarrassment.
English
@laura_pollock_ I'm betting a lot longer than the National can continue being published.
English
The Scottish Parliament has officially called for the UK Government to devolve the powers which would allow it to hold a second independence referendum
UK Gov has said no.
How long can that refusal last? 🤔
English
@scottishgreens You're completely disrespecting Scottish voters. Which is understandable since 95% of them didn't vote for you.
English
Today the Scottish Parliament voted to request the powers to hold a referendum on independence.
The UK government must now respect Scottish democracy and Scottish voters.
English
@Guy_Ingerson @RosaZambonini @MhairiHunter @kellylgiven @ionafyfe Sturgeon not knowing about this is as likely as Maggie Chapman's behaviour to get on the list being completely on the up and up.
English
@RosaZambonini @MhairiHunter @kellylgiven @ionafyfe I had a pal who didn’t know their partner had an addiction problem. Tens of thousands gone, hidden debt, plans up in smoke. It took a big event before it all came to light.
It’s a reasonable point to make.
English
The abusive tweets directed at @MhairiHunter @kellylgiven @RosaZambonini and @ionafyfe on here are a new low.
The SNP made mistakes, big ones, which were exploited by a shameless official.
They gave their view. Nothing they said justifies what has followed.
English
'If she says she knew nothing, then clearly the police believed her, we should believe her too.'
Kate Higgins, who worked as a special adviser to Nicola Sturgeon, defends her former boss.
She calls former SNP Chief Exec Peter Murrell 'devious'
English
@80_mcswan @Keir_Starmer Dear @Keir_Starmer
Your instincts are entirely correct, please continue to ignore these cunts.
English
Dear @Keir_Starmer
The Scottish Parliament has passed a mandate to ask Westminster to devolve the powers required to hold a Scottish independence referendum.
We the people of Scotland wish democracy to be upheld with the immediate powers transfered.
Please RT if you agree.
