Delighted to hear it, I’m glad of your support, I made this speech on that a few weeks back ?s=21&t=64j4Jv3s5hepUaMfKZOGgg
RT @TalkingMats: We were one of the 125 Scottish organisations that signed the statement to the UK Government saying No to the #RightsRemovalBill The protection of these rights lies at the heart of our values & what we do. Communication & freedom of expression is a basic human right @AlynSmith
Grand to see you Chief, keep in touch!
RT @SeanKellyMEP: Good to meet with fellow members of the EU-UK Parliamentary Partnership Assembly this week.
@Dr_PhilippaW and @AlynSmith shared their concerns around the UK government's unilateral action in the form of the Protocol Bill and the implications for Northern Ireland.
Great discussion Mr Ambassador, thanks for your time we’ll keep in touch!
RT @APranckevicius: Big pleasure to greet 🏴Scottish MPs at @UKParliament and members of EU-UK Parliamentary Assembly @AlynSmith and @Dr_PhilippaW at 🇱🇹 Permanent Representation and discuss common efforts to help 🇺🇦#Ukraine, to stop Russia’s war, and to boost 🇪🇺🇬🇧cooperation in these historic times.
🗳 On Tuesday, @NicolaSturgeon announced @scotgov plans to hold a legal and democratic independence referendum on Thursday 19th October 2023.
🏴 It's time for Scotland to become a normal, successful, European country.
Some sunny Brussels landmarks from my stroll in to another day of meetings with @Dr_PhilippaW in Brussels, nice to see the Saltire looking well over @ScotGovBrussels 🏴🇪🇺
Great chat at @ScotGovBrussels with @Dr_PhilippaW talking all things Scotland and Europe. Plenty to talk about 🏴🇪🇺
@KirsteinRummery We’ll take nothing for granted, and there’s lots of folks in lots of places working on this, but I’m absolutely focussed on winning independence and getting back into the EU as soon as!
RT @ScotNational: 'The people of Scotland are looking to us for hope, reassurance and inspiration, and I’m confident we’re up to it – but all of us need to rise to that challenge.' // @AlynSmith
RT @AlexofBrown: Back at work and shocked to see a pro-independence party is trying to make Scotland independent, the audacity of trying to deliver what they ran on 😠
19th October 2023, that’s the date proposed in the Scottish Independence Referendum Bill. This is the opportunity for Stirling, the Forth Valley, and Scotland to forge a better future for ourselves.
It’s going to be an energised and positive debate. Bring it on!
🏴The people of Scotland have the right to choose their future in a legal and democratic referendum.
🇪🇺As an independent country in Europe, we can be a positive and constructive partner for peace, prosperity, security and justice.

This is simply chilling. The UK is in a deeply dangerous place.
RT @charlotterlynch: On the day that “noisy” protest becomes unlawful under the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, at least 20 police officers have just surrounded anti-Brexit protestor Steve Bray outside the Houses of Parliament and seized his loud speaker. @LBC
It is not an exaggeration to say @FabianZuleeg speaks for mainstream EU opinion. This hapless UK government is trashing its own reputation in the eyes of the world.
RT @FabianZuleeg: While it's probably tactically right not to overreact to the NIP bill being passed, given long process it still needs to go through, we should also note that it is an intentional attempt to breach international law & agreements freely entered into, with …
@beth0013 Seems a lifetime ago, but also just yesterday!
Thanks to the kind gentleman who gave me a wry smile at the news it is #sherkaleg’s 6th anniversary today. Still working on that, promise 🏴🇪🇺

I said earlier the debate on the Northern Ireland Protocol would be grim, and it really is. With a few Tory exceptions (and all credit to them) the UK government continues to blame everyone but themselves for the consequences of their own actions. Appalling.

Grim reading again on todays Order Paper with the dreadful shambles of the Northern Ireland Protocol Bill up for debate and vote. @theSNP will vote against this awful, needless “legislation” and I call on all sensible MPs to join us.
@RogerBainbo No, I’m not, and had I heard any (which I didn’t) I would have requested they stop. I’ll post my speech tomorrow once we have subtitled it and you can see what I said, I can’t speak for anyone else.
