I started this campaign blog in March 2022 (just before the 1st smear campaign, orchestrated by a warmongering spy who got promoted while I was sacked as a peacenik) so you can see the honesty and consistency of my views through 6 elections & 2 parties. freekirkytwechar.wordpress.com

Breaking: Pope Leo calls for the immediate relaese of Christian hostages in Nigeria.

This is a painting.

How can someone who has already stabbed two people be released on bail back into the public? This isn’t a minor offence. It’s serious violence. If you harm people like this, you shouldn’t be walking free. Simple as that.

INCREÍBLE: El inmigrante ruandés Emmanuel Abayaisenga vio rechazada su solicitud de asilo en Francia en repetidas ocasiones desde que la presentó en 2012. A pesar de las órdenes de deportación, permaneció en el país de forma ilegal. Los sacerdotes le confiaron las llaves de la catedral, encargándole el cierre y el cuidado del edificio. Después de que incendiara la catedral, destruyendo el órgano y el coro, el padre Maire lo acogió en su casa, ofreciéndole refugio mientras esperaba el juicio. Luego asesinó al padre Maire. Europa en pocas palabras: el suicidio moral de una civilización.

There's only one thing we agree on, in the UK just now, so that would make him our logical choice: the Japanese Ambassador. If aliens arrived, with superior technology, the best defence would be a charm offensive.

Do you still believe Geoengineering is a myth ? Watch this short video.

Great to meet with Stephen Bowie, @LiberateScot's lead candidate for North East Scotland, and supporters in Peterhead.

If you don't believe @theSNP's leadership (a) will prioritise achieving independence over their various social policies, or (b) have a credible independence strategy, or (c) are willing to make the sacrifices necessary to get it done, then it's time to vote for those who will. /2

The Alliance are standing in 14 constituency seats, not just on the regional list. In these seats, voting Liberate 1 Liberate 2 is the best way to send a message to the SNP: the days of taking the pro-Independence vote for granted are over. /1 @LiberateScot @VoteSovereignty

Scottish Greens 'barmy' free bus plan will bankrupt rural councils and saddle them with debts scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/news/politics/…

UNBELIEVABLE: The new Green party deputy-leader Rachel Millward has objected to housing asylum seekers in her constituency, citing safety concerns. It seems the Greens want mass migration but not on their doorstep Just like Labour’s policies of let’s change things as it suits us. Just send them all back, problem solved. But they won’t say that because it will cost them their Muslim Voters. Shameless hypocrisy, it really is.

@Foodman62 @yankeedraft It doesn't matter because as soon as you walk on, all those dogs are out of their seats and sniffing you for treats. Oh and the boxer slobbers over your knee, the lab eats your wallet and the rest shed all over your clothes. Still, it's the best flight ever. If you bought snacks.

@yankeedraft I’m on this flight

You’re on a 10-hour flight. Which seat are you choosing and why?

Ruminants, we are told, are ruining the British countryside. They overgraze, they trample, they degrade, they emit. The thesis appears in policy documents, in op-eds, in well-funded campaign briefings. A prominent example, frequently cited in informal conversation, is Keith. Keith is, by every available measure, ruining the British countryside. This morning at 6:14am, in a quiet act of vandalism, Keith ate a bramble. Bramble is the dense thorny scrub that, left to itself, will colonise an open pasture within a decade, choke out the wildflowers, exclude the ground-nesting birds, and reduce a flower-rich meadow to a single-species thicket. Keith ate it without a permit. 7:02am - Keith ate a thistle. Thistles outcompete native pasture species and form dense stands that nothing else will touch. Goldfinches eat the seeds. Keith ate the rest. Keith has not been authorised to do this by any conservation body. 8:45am - Keith ate a section of nettle. Nettles are nitrogen-loving opportunists that flag pasture damage and, left unchecked, will dominate the field margins in two seasons. Keith does not know this. Keith ate them anyway. 9:30am - Keith ate the lower branches of the hawthorn, the section the sheep cannot reach. The hawthorn was, until that point, scrubbing inward toward the open pasture at a rate of approximately 15cm per year. 10:30am - Keith ate a section of bracken. Bracken is toxic to most livestock, supports almost no insect life, releases a chemical called ptaquiloside that suppresses native plant germination, and has been classified as the most damaging single plant species in the British uplands. Keith ate the young fronds with the considered air of a goat performing routine maintenance. 11:00am - Keith ate Himalayan balsam, an actual listed invasive species under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Keith committed this act in plain daylight. 12:00pm - Keith ate a tin can. Goats are not perfect. The damage Keith has done to invasive scrub on Dave's farm, in three years: Bramble cover: down 71%. Thistle density: down 54%. Bracken on the lower paddock: cleared. Himalayan balsam: not currently present. The damage Keith has done to native grassland, wildflowers, and ground-nesting birds in the same period: None recorded. Keith is destroying the countryside in the same way a dishwasher is destroying the dishes. The countryside, in his absence, would be considerably worse off. The Reverend has noticed. The lapwings have noticed. Steve, next door, has not noticed, because Steve is busy filing his 27th complaint. The countryside is, by every honest measure, fine. Stop blaming Keith. Keith is the cleanup crew.

Teacher planned a trip to National museum of Scotland. Because of logistics she needed a mini bus. Bus hire company could not supply a #LEZ compliant vehicle - only a full size bus - which made the trip uneconomic. No budget. This is what @theSNP control freaks have done.

@ForWomenScot I wouldn't be so sure about SNP being safe in Cumbernauld & Kilsyth. Jamie Hepburn seems generally liked but his party is not, *even by supporters of Independence*. People have finally woken up to wokery and are absolutely sick of it and v. angry about the danger to women & kids!

Cumbernauld and Kilsyth Keith Allan - Conservative and Unionist Party Steven Grant- Reform UK Jamie Hepburn - Scottish National Party (SNP) William Brian Howieson - Liberal Democrats Alan McManus - Alliance to Liberate Scotland and Sovereignty James McPhilemy - Labour Party Safe SNP seat held by Jamie Hepburn. YouGov places them ahead of Lab while More in Common see a strong showing by Reform.

Having looked at the manifestos, we are drilling down a bit more into the constituencies and regions. We plan to list all the candidates and puzzle out current polling. We haven't canvased all the candidates, but thought this would be a great way for constituents - or candidates - to let our followers know where they stand. We will do a thread for each region. Please add any feed back/comments to the post relating to your constituency or region. We will share our experiences of candidates if relevant! We have mainly drawn on the polling from YouGov and More In Common as they have looked at the constituencies. Other polls are available, so feel free to point out any data we missed!

Just getting in there early, if Lucy Connolly is attacked in an antisemitic terror attack by an illegal Muslim immigrant shouting Allahu Akbar the day before the elections….. it’s fake.

As usual there are many boastful claims of uniqueness in these elections. With 340 GB registered parties contesting seats in England, 151 in Scotland, 146 in Wales and 30 registered in Northern Ireland, it's unlikely that any policy is unique - but *their combination* may be.

@DrTimothyKelly @Malcolm_Offord @MattersInformed @UKFreeAlliance @AllianceDemFree Freedom Alliance is neutral on the constitutional question but for decentralised power; ADF is unionist. There's also @VoteSovereignty which is the only fully awake nationalist party in Scotland although constitutional matters are more important there than for the other two.

@DrTimothyKelly @Malcolm_Offord I admire you sticking to your principles Tim. If you see through the globalist psy-ops, there's no point joining yet another rebrand of a branch of the Uniparty (see @MattersInformed for more on the Re- parties) but have you considered either @UKFreeAlliance or @AllianceDemFree?

I've resigned from Reform UK and will continue my campaign in East Kilbride as an Independent. My full letter to Lord @Malcolm_Offord👇 "How can I ask voters to trust my judgement while standing inside a party that will not trust theirs?"
