@ScotNational @OkItsGrant I agree. If all independence supporters give our constituency votes to the SNP and our list votes to the Greens, we could have an SNP majority and a pro independence super majority.

Hollywood superstar Alan Cumming wants an independence supermajority - but he says if it's to work, Green voters need to back the SNP on the constituency vote. 'Please don't undermine the chance of an SNP majority,' he says in the new video What do you make of the call?

@brawday @IainAStewart2 Good, but she'll still get in on the Labour list.

Jackie Baillie set to lose her seat as Labour languishes at 13 MSPs, poll predicts thenational.scot/news/26074959.…

@HazelLyon16 @mickbrick54 The problem is that we still don't have a consistent majority of people voting for pro independence parties. This allows the British Nationalist parties to claim that there is no mandate for a referendum. Yet most polls show a lead for Yes. Why?

And it will be the same answer after Thursday and again and again because WM don't need to say anything else. Holyrood needs a transfusion of new Indy blood. Both votes SNP wont change a thing form the last 12 years. Use yer heid vote Indy 1 & 2

@BobbyInTheNorth @IndyIsNormal @StephenFlynnSNP The polls are saying that the majority want independence. We also know that some independence supporters still vote for British Nationalist parties, especially Labour, which means that we can't assume anything from election results. The only way to be certain is a referendum.

@IndyIsNormal @StephenFlynnSNP He's asking a fair question. What is plan B? Independence is reserved. In the last WM election 57.7% of Scots voted for three parties all promising to reject a indyref2. Labour being one of them, winning 64.9% of the seats. UK gov have a solid mandate to reject indyref2.

Let’s find out.

@greensmith21 @iansummer1 @georgeinrhu That's why I said around. I couldn't remember the exact number. The point is still valid.

@DavidBryers @iansummer1 @georgeinrhu It wasn’t frozen for 10yrs!! 🙄

All the unionist parties all have the same message “vote for us to stop the SNP” Stop the SNP doing what? Capping essential food prices Capping bus fares at £2 Expand on childcare GP drop in centres £10k for 1st time buyers On the 7th May #BothVotesSNP

@greensmith21 @iansummer1 @georgeinrhu The SNP froze council tax for around 10 years, and all the opposition parties complained. The SNP eventually removed the council tax freeze and all the opposition parties in control of councils increased council tax massively.

@iansummer1 @georgeinrhu I don’t care about £2 fkn bus fares! Most tax payers don’t use a bus!! Give us something better like lower the bloody council tax 😡

@AlliHim32 @Acyn I suppose you deserve some credit for finally realising that Trump is a liar who enriches himself at the expense of others. I'm in Scotland and I realised it before 2016. Why were so many Americans fooled by this megalomaniacal moron?

He is not achieving the America 🇺🇸 first mandate. I voted for him 3 times and want him to succeed but he is speaking lies about food and utility prices lowering. They are as astronomical if not worse as when Biden was in office. Meanwhile his net worth has skyrocketed. I’m all for people making lots of money but not at the expense of us.

Trump says anyone running for president should take a cognitive exam because you could end being stuck with a moron for years. “I mean, you get a guy who gets in there, he's got a good line of crap. He gets in and all of a sudden you're stuck with a man who's a moron”

@csterracetees @JohnAnd46093384 Says the Tory who helped to bankrupt Rangers.

The Scotsman doing comedy now

@glennlux @krassenstein @Lawrence @DemocraticWins @MorePerfectUS The USA has had good presidents and bad presidents, but I think Trump is the first that could be described as absolute scum.

@krassenstein Peacocking, the Emperor has no clothes @Lawrence @DemocraticWins @DemocraticWins @MorePerfectUS

Trump is so disrespectful. He literally cut in front of Queen Camilla while she was shaking hands. Every day is another embarrassment for our country.

@CameronRhona @BBCNewsnight @no202123 @vicderbyshire The problem with British Nationalists is that they pump out anti Scottish propaganda.

@BBCNewsnight @no202123 @vicderbyshire I agree with most of it apart from the man who thinks Scotland and England are different. This is the problem with nationalism they blame someone else . All devolved powers are mismanaged by SNP . Best example .. Ferries 🤷‍♀️justice , education and health .

"Everything is just becoming a disaster" Ahead of next week's elections to the Scottish Parliament, @vicderbyshire speaks to voters in Glasgow and Troon. #Newsnight

@BjCruickshank @Irene60779832 @MoragSievwright @jpdeacons @BBCNewsnight @vicderbyshire Like you, I had respect for Victoria Derbyshire. Her hosting of Question Time was far superior to Fiona Bruce, who shows her anti SNP bias every time.

@MoragSievwright @jpdeacons @BBCNewsnight @vicderbyshire TBH I was very disappointed not only by her but the whole programme which was tokenism in the extreme & designed to portray Scotland in the worst possible light. I was absolutely disgusted by the presentation & tone.

Hi @BBCNewsnight you say your read every communication. Well as a Scot, I say read this: Your patronising, condescending & quite frankly warped piece interviewing Scots tonight was sheer Brit propaganda. @vicderbyshire very disappointed, thought you were better than that.

@Iblogtoglasgow @frank_kerr I'm not a fan of the J word, but I do support English independence. It's amazing how many English people claim that they subsidise Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland but there are no English politicians wanting English independence.

Wire in boys!

@ochaye6dot5 @janforindy2 @bilbo815 @LeftFootFwd Yes. So long as independence supporters don't get complacent and think that they don't need to bother voting.

@janforindy2 @bilbo815 @LeftFootFwd a good poll for us freaks the yoons out, gets them screaming. that's got to be a good thing 😀

Polls suggest pro-independence majority ahead of May 7 Scottish election leftfootforward.org/2026/04/polls-… via @leftfootfwd

@beith123 @billbla89755293 Of the five showing a lead for No, four were carried out by Tory Lord Ashcroft and YouGov, who are still using 2014 weighting. British Nationalists don't want a referendum because they know they'll lose this time. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Including this latest one, there have now been 14 Independence Polls so far in 2026. NINE have shown YES in the lead. Five have shown NO in the lead. Nice.

@GrahamS40794359 @IanAndeSunnyJim Just like Fiona Bruce on Question Time. She always interrupts the SNP person more than all the rest added together.

#bbcdn The host interrupted the SNP 12 times, Labour 4, Tory 2 and Green and Reform 1. Just saying

@beith123 Labour's 37% in 2024 was a temporary surge to get the Tories out. Apart from that blip, they've been low for the past 15 years.

Jeeeez - LABOUR DOWN TO A TINY 12% IN SCOTLAND!!!

@Record_Politics @ALWH1874 And Plaid Cymru. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have to work together, because Westminster only cares about England.

SNP would work with Sinn Fein 'to change the dynamics of the United Kingdom', says John Swinney dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

@grant86795 @MrsAstronaut During the 2024 UK general election campaign, Labour PROMISED to reduce energy prices. Instead they've gone up. Typical thick British Nationalist.

I was watching the Laura Kuenssberg programme and she was going round Glasgow asking what people want from the Holyrood election. This guy said lower the energy bills. I don't think this guy knows that energy is reserved to Westminster. People need to know these things

@BogotaBob @MrsAstronaut John Swinney has been pointing out that Labour has not kept its 2024 promise to lower energy bills. Scotland produces far more energy than it needs, but has the highest energy prices in the UK, because energy is reserved to Westminster.

@MrsAstronaut It probably doesn’t help that Swinney is constantly banging on about reducing energy bills.

@BorisWeygand @MrsAstronaut @scotgov Westminster is costing us money. Scotland produces far more energy than it needs, but because energy is reserved to Westminster, Scotland has the highest energy prices in the UK. Scotland doesn't need nuclear energy.

@MrsAstronaut @Scotgov needs to get onboard with Nuclear power. They are costing us money. The toxic-cunt Scottish greens are costing us money. Not welcome at all.
