@Catheri44366771 @MajorDMalpas Non, we all accepted and respected the outcome of the referendum both immediately and publicly then engaged into the Smith Commission report.
Brexit is the reason.

@MajorDMalpas The people of Scotland is what we are as per the definition of our democratic right to vote in Scottish elections.
The right to self-determination is a collective right, only a people or a population fixed in a territorial entity, not an individual, can exercise the right.

RT @DickWinchester: @STVNews Constitutional politics can 'never end poverty or inequality'. I agree but independence can. Compare the level of UK poverty and inequality with Norway or Denmark. You'll be surprised.

@MajorDMalpas This is how it works in democracies: “peoples have the right of self-determination. By virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social and cultural development”
The rule of law will always prevail in democracies.

@tweetmentcentre Within the United Kingdom, Scotland's tax revenue is £60B and
Scotland spends £96B we are told.
And somehow the difference of £36B is some proof that we cannot do better than this as an Independent country?
Yes we can, just like all our independent neighbours do.

@kath14sangster Education and the NHS are devolved, a general election in Scotland is about Brexit and Trident, both rejected by the people of Scotland.
Your party with the Tories support Brexit and Trident to be imposed on Scotland without our consent.
If not Independence then what?

RT @BBCRadioScot: Transport police are urging people to report any sexual harassment they witness on train journeys.
The number of sexual offences reported on the rail network has increased since before the pandemic.
Would you intervene if you witnessed a sexual assault on public transport?
