I could write a book. For starters:
Independent third party witnesses in the Salmond trial contradicting accounts
CCTV and documentary evidence in the Salmond trial
A truly massive police and media effort brought zero new accusers of Salmond outside an organised connected group
All different from Brand

There is no British identity. British meant English before the ‘union’ and it means English today. The identity simply says you too can be a part of England and adopt its history, values and culture. So for the hard of thinking Scots who remain Scots are not British. Scot’s who want to be English are Brits.

At the behest of Rupert Murdoch's empire, the Procurator Fiscal pursued the most expensive prosecution against an individual in Scottish history at the time.
The £5Million 2010 perjury case agst Tommy Sheridan.
Murdoch wanted revenge after Sheridan succesfully sued for defamation

How it works:
In 1988 Foreign Office minister David Mellor MP described conditions in Gaza as "shocking and inhuman", "an affront to civilised values" and confronted the IDF in public.
His career ended when secretly taken recordings of his sex life were published in the media.

Traitors I said and traitors I meant. If the leaders of the main independence party does not, in fact, genuinely want independence- and that is pretty damn clear now - then that party is, to quote a former MI5 agent of my acquaintance, neutralised. It remains neutralised as long as its members refuse to see the obvious and stops being neutralised if and when they clean it out and take it back. Until then while you talk of unity the party high heedyins are briefing against the one and only campaign to get them a clear road to safe and uncontested UDI - international recognition of the right to self determination ie no need for Westminster permission. Ask yourself why, will you?
And one more thing. We are going to do this. It’s not that far off now. I now believe the SNP leadership is so captured that it will lie to Scotland and pretend it still needs Westminster permission. Why don’t you find out? Ask honest John what he plans to do if the UN General Assembly recognises Scotland’s right to external self determination. Not if he believes it will happen but what he will do if it does.

Aha, so the 'Once in a generation' ploy can no longer be applied to Scotland & an independence referendum? Have I got that right?

Hypocrites and liars sanctioning those publishing views and facts you don’t want contradicting your false narrative while you agitate for your own mouthpieces. Right or wrong Russia has a viewpoint that must be heard and understood if peace is to be possible. You block that and punish those who try to present it. Palestinian journalists? Where is their ‘press freedom’.
Charlie Forbes retweeted
There is no democracy without press freedom.
On International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists, and beyond, we stand by all those who speak truth to power.

ALT A minimalist poster with a white background reads: “Journalists are being killed, tortured, harassed, detained, forced into exile. Impunity must end.” The words “Journalists are being” and “Impunity must end” are in bold, with the latter highlighted in red. A small European Union emblem, represented by a circle of stars inside a rectangular outline, appears at the bottom.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This post is full of hypocrisy. The EU sanctioned several journalists in the last years, without charge, without a hearing, without legal proceedings, f.e. Jacques Baud or Hüseyin Doğru.

This is still one of the most powerful images that portrays graphically our relationship with Westminster. They will deny this, but the thieving radges are ruthless. Fucking over Scotland is small fry compared to accepting Zionist blood-money to support genocide. Criminals!!!!

The SNP have hit out at the BBC ahead of a Question Time show which is due to debate Scottish oil and gas without any Scottish representation on the panel
SNP MSP Laura Mitchell said the BBC line-up was the 'perfect representation of the story of Scotland’s energy – zero Scottish say over our own resources'

Do you? Over 65 countries kicked out the English colonial state but Scotland is not a colony? Attached for you an image in PUCK magazine, the US' leading magazine at the end of the 19th century clearly showing Scotland is an English colony: everybody knew at the time Scotland was an English colony. As a high level Global South politician told me: don't worry everybody understands or will that Scotland would not have given up its freedom unless it was under coercion and bribery because nobody gives away his liberty. Do you simply repeat the colonial English version of history like all colonisers? You do understand given where you're standing you have zero credibility? Do you know about the illegal extension of the English Crown over the Scottish Crown which still exists (you do know there is no territorial union don't you?)? Do you know about the Claim of Right fully violated by the English colonial state? Do you know that the colonial Treaty of Union was never implemented? Do you know about the fact the English Crown vested Scottish oil & gas revenues in the English Crown (what real state would have to do that unless its annexation & territorial alienation)? The Royal Commission on Scottish Affairs (1952-54) created to lie to the international community saying Scotland entered voluntarily into a union with England and is not a dependency when the UN was asking to decolonise Scotland (which real state would do that unless it feared UN decolonisation ?)? The fact that Jamaica, India, Barbados etc were all English colonies (Jamaica was conquered by England while it was also colonising Scotland. Scots, a colonized people, were brought in as servants. You do know that right?)? That the East India Company was English in law? That Scots were forbidden by law to be part of the English empire before annexation? That the law in all.the English Empire was English law? English law! British gas always meant English. It's England colonial veil to annex Scotland since annexation was as illegal then as it is now. That Liberation Scotland, Scotland's liberation movement, with Professor Robert Black KC, Scotland's leading law authority, have proven annexation? That Scots (Irish and Welsh) are officially called English by the English colonial foreign office in countries around the world in foreign languages and it's defended officially by the FCDO? You do know the central bank is called the Bank of England don't you (more evidence. Do you even understand what that means?)? You do know Scotland is run by English intelligence? That all institutions are captured? That MI5 pays all sorts of people in Scotland? That Scotland has no media (colonially reserved matter)? You do know we are meeting high level diplomats and politicians globally don't you? which all understand Scotland is an English colony? What do you think of the genocide, deportations, ethnic cleansing etc that took place in Scotland? What about the linguicide? What about the ports and all logistics being destroyed for all trade to go through England? About the over 150£ billion stolen annually from Scotland? About the colonial ledgers GERS and Barnett Formula? About the colonial voting system? Do you know about nuclear colonialism? Why are nuclear weapons 40km from Glasgow and not from London? Etc etc. Any honest person knows its colonisation, that Scotland is an English colony. Do you understand colonialism? Annexation ? Territorial alienation? Do you know Scotland is an older state than England which was recognised all over Europe? The English colonial state is a criminal state, a global threat to peace and security. It is illegally occupying Scotland and must and will leave. It's expulsion from Scotland will trigger UN Security Council reform. The world will teach the English colonial state a huge lesson. It's time.
