@Paddle39 @joannaccherry @theSNP As in a ploy to show the electorate that our parliament (and right to self-determination) will get blocked by London at every step, and in the process increase support for indy. Ie, not moving it on a genuine belief it will work itself, but will increase indy support.

@EnglishScot4YES @joannaccherry @theSNP Are you accusing the person who nearly won a referendum on Scotland's sovereignty, of engaging in a 'ploy'? Who the f#ck do you think you are? Definitely not to be trusted!

This is an interesting initiative. Of course @theSNP policy agreed at conference is that a vote for us at the General election would include inter alia a mandate for such powers to be transferred to Holyrood. I think we can & should work cross party on this.
@GinaDavidson@ginadavidsonlbc

NEW: Alba Party's @AshReganALBA plans to introduce a referendum Bill in Holyrood- on "whether the powers of the Scottish Parliament should be extended to include the power to legislate for & negotiate independence" says it could be held exactly 10 years after 2014 poll. @LBC

@joannaccherry @theSNP Fair comment. We will need to see the exact wording of the text suggested..if it can pass great. It will get challenged in courts regardless tho.

Pete is right. We haven’t had a group presence at their marches in some time, due in part to the attitudes of some of their organisers and the continued tolerance of groups like Sial N’an Gaidheal. We will not win independence by rolling in the gutter. We’ll take the high road.

It's time for 'All Under One Banner' to finally lower the colours, go away and march off in to oblivion. They have embarrassed the movement too many times. Someone should have taken the Twitter account away from their hapless leadership a long time ago. ..

@KennyFarq @thetimes As a group of English people, in Scotland, many of who are also snp members, if we can pluck a helpful question from the vast gathering horde before us: What the hell are you actually talking about?

Mental health slurs are not OK, but that man is not someone we’d be happy sharing a stage with. His position on English Scots is nothing short of vile. His views have no place in a civic nationalist movement, or in a welcoming Scotland. We can only hope he reconsiders his views.
Hope Over Fear@hopeoverfear01

Mental health slurs abound here against a lifelong & passionate Yes campaigner with known mental health issues. Not a good look Davie Greig.

Our group lost a member today to cancer; a committed campaigner, a good laugh, often controversial but always a good sport. Piers Doughty-Brown will be missed. Our thoughts are with his family and his many many friends in the indy movement. RIP Piers.

There are commenters on Wings claiming in all seriousness that the people of Quebec have no right to self-determination because they're not "indigenous". Well, that would also rule out the Scots, who come from Ireland originally. Only the Picts get to decide - where are they?!

@TomtheBankie We were going to reply with a robust response around kindness, respect for the dead and about how we all have a duty to raise the debate. But, that isn’t what Piers would have wanted. In light of that, our reply will be based on what he’d have said: Get yourself tae fuck.
