World Cup tickets are too dear.
But for 15 years the SNP have treated football fans like scum.
Criminalised & discriminated through the Offensive Behaviour Act.
Alcohol banned in stadiums.
Currently pushing a draconian Banning Order proposal through parliament.
Hypocritical.

Scotland invented the modern game of football. Costs for Scotland tickets are far too high. Football should belong to the fans, and tickets should be available for the Tartan Army to enjoy the World Cup. We’re calling on FIFA to act.

Doing this whilst they aid Iran in destroying your military assets is genuinely nuts

In 33 days, Trump’s Treasury quietly eased Russia sanctions, then delisted 3 high‑risk cargo ships tied to Moscow’s defense sector, stolen Ukrainian grain, and the former "Francop" arms‑smuggling vessel. "Ordinary course of business" doesn’t begin to cover it.

@RepublicanSons @GEGJones @jazzyrussell59 @theSNP I think it’s slightly more complex than that, but the point is valid. I’d love to know the implication of existing generation and cost for an independent Scotland as opposed to now (if any).

Electricity transfers data show that Scotland exported 21.7 TWh of electricity and imported 0.9 TWh of electricity in 2025. This means that Scotland’s net exports of electricity (exports minus imports) in 2025 were 20.8 TWh.-TUS2.That's £1.7bn, almost 5% of our block grant!

@GerryHassan Fine, but surely there’s revenue generated for the UK that can be used to subside the insane fuel duty here? At least in the short term

The answer is Norway has public ownership of oil and gas with govt owning 67% of Equinor (formerly Statoil): the state energy company. In the UK Thatcher privatised British National Oil Corporation starting in 1982 selling a 51% stake before selling the remain stake in 1985.

@Gavin1995 It's not about doing, it's not a value judgement. You're either a White Scotsman with Scottish ancestry or you're a foreign guest.

Drilling for more oil & gas in the North Sea won't lower bills, it won't make us more energy independent and it won't insulate us from price shocks. A Labour backslide on this would be a huge betrayal. Double down on renewables. Insulate every home. Lower bills, permanently.

He’s not wrong. Other countries are slashing tax on fuel to keep it affordable, but we get Starmer who just repeats the duty freeze thats been there since covid. Do something.

Scotland is facing an unprecedented cost of living crisis - rising bills and soaring food and fuel prices, and the UK government is sitting on its hands. The House of Commons must be recalled, so that the UK government can be forced into urgent action to support people.

A newborn sperm whale can’t swim. It starts sinking the second it’s born. If nobody pushes it to the surface, it drowns in mile-deep water.
On July 8, 2023, a sperm whale named Rounder went into labor off the coast of Dominica. Researchers from Project CETI, a $33 million AI initiative out of MIT, Harvard, and Northeastern that’s trying to decode whale language, happened to be there doing routine fieldwork. They had drones in the air and underwater microphones running. What they captured over the next six hours just got published in two papers, one in Science and one in Scientific Reports.
Eleven whales gathered at the surface before Rounder even started delivering. Her mother, Lady Oracle, was there. So was her daughter Accra. Three generations in the water. But the wild part: half those whales belonged to a completely separate bloodline that normally keeps its distance from Rounder’s family. On a typical day, these two family lines split off to hunt in different areas and rarely cluster together. For the birth, they all converged before labor started. The unrelated family somehow knew it was coming.
The delivery took 34 minutes. Sperm whale calves come out tail-first with their flukes still folded from the womb. They haven’t developed the oil-filled organ in their heads that helps adult whales float, so the moment they’re born, they’re dead weight in the ocean. Every adult whale in the group, related and unrelated, started taking turns pushing the calf up to breathe. They kept this rotation going for three hours. When a pod of pilot whales (known to be aggressive toward sperm whales) and a large group of Fraser’s dolphins showed up during delivery, the adults formed a wall around the newborn until the threat passed.
The underwater audio is where it gets interesting. CETI’s microphones picked up the whales changing their vocal patterns during the birth. The click-based sounds they use to talk to each other shifted at specific moments, and vowel-like structures appeared in the recordings. This builds on what CETI found in 2024 when they ran machine learning on over 8,700 recorded whale calls and discovered sperm whale communication isn’t a basic 21-sound code. It’s a system of about 300 distinct sound combinations, with the whales adjusting rhythm and timing in real time, speeding up and slowing down the way a musician does mid-performance. A 2025 follow-up from UC Berkeley found these clicks also contain vowel patterns, something scientists had assumed only humans could produce.
Sperm whales carry the largest brain of any animal on the planet. About 9 kg. Roughly six times heavier than yours. The evolutionary analysis in the new Science paper suggests this kind of cooperative birthing goes back over 36 million years, to the common ancestor of all toothed whales. The calf was spotted a year later, swimming with its family.

Rare footage of a sperm whale giving birth has offered scientists a window into the behavior of these large, elusive mammals.

Certainly! 55% of Scots taxpayers will pay less tax than their UK counterparts. From their taxes people here get free prescriptions, no tuition fees, lower council tax bills than elsewhere, no peak rail fares, free bus travel for the under 22s and over 60s & the list goes on.

History is going to look on utterly bemused about how the United States created the most effective power-projection alliance in the history of the world, designed it explicitly so that the US did not have to intervene in its allies wars of choice, and then ended it when the allies did not intervene in an American war of choice.
