BBC News this morning is desperately trying to make all about Reform, yesterday's brilliant Plaid Cymru victory in Caerphilly.
Plaid are not being platformed and the BBC tells you nothing about what Plaid stand for.

As independence voters see votes for ALBA translate into seats won, our support will rise, with more voters flocking to our banner between now and polling day.

๐จ The BBC compiled evidence that Israel has been deliberately sniping children in the head & chest.
*Over 60% of murdered children revealed this pattern of injury.*
There is no justice in this world until lsraeI is put on trial at The Hague.

What would Alex be making of things now? Thereโs fear and anger in our communities about their lives. They want change and they need hope, writes Kenny MacAskill โ๏ธ
Murdo Fraser has always been a twat and always will be. Outbursts like this merely confirm that.

In an independent Scotland Energy should be nationalised. VAT should not be charged on any of life's essentials.
Retweet if you agree.

The 'why' of Independence.
Poverty is running rampant across Scotland. Our energy wealth is being taken from us. Our industry is closing.
Scotland should be one of the wealthiest countries in the world. It is utterly perverse.

With Westminster denying any possibility of a second independence referendum, we must take matters into our own hands.
The next Scottish election must be Scotlandโs independence election to ensure the dream is realised.

Geneva: Team Scotland in the company of friends
Ayman Okeil Deputy Presiding Officer of the African Union's ECOSOCC says his country was colonised by England, so he understands our situation.โโ
Scotlandโs situation is understood as colonial - the principle at stake is self-determination โColonised by England.โ
This is no longer a โdomestic UK issue.โ Scotlandโs case now sits where it belongs, in the international decolonisation framework.

UK government must end all arms exports to Israel. After UN findings on genocide of Palestinians by Israel how can Labour ministers justify any military support to Israel?

It feels like a lifetime, but in just 11 years, the UK government has broken every promise it made to the Scottish people. A weaker economy, a weaker voice on the world stage, and a stream of PMs that continuously refuse to honour the will of the Scottish people.

Message from #SalvoGeneva25 that was posted an hour ago .
This on top of news filtering out of Geneva has me on the verge of tears. Not the tears of 11 years ago but tears of hope and tears of joy that we are gaining support in our fight

Today marks 11 years since Scotlandโs independence referendum. The YES side may have lost, but it changed our nation forever.
The fight for independence has never been more urgent. Holyrood 2026 must be Scotlandโs independence election.
