SNP and Sinn Fein - Closer Than Ever - That Should Serve As A Warning.

 SNP and Sinn Fein - Closer Ties Than Ever

And That Should Serve As A Warning Across Scotland And The Entire United Kingdom

Pictured above: May 2022, this was how the Daily Record reported on Michelle O'Neil's official visit to meet First Minister Sturgeon in Edinburgh. The two have maintained regular contact and operate as an 'informal alliance' between the two parties.

Beyond the cosy photo-opportunity shots at Bute House is a serious political strategy that plans to see both Sinn Fein and the SNP gain strength from each others gains from pressuring the Westminster government.

SNP First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is proud to stand in solidarity with her Northern Ireland counter part Michelle O'Neil of Sinn Fein. Two female politicians, two female party leaders, and two women who seek to dismantle the United Kingdom and put their names in the history books.

The political chaos at Westminster only serves to strengthen both the SNP and Sinn Fein, every time the Conservative Party appoints a new Prime Minister, First Minister Sturgeon issues a repeat of her demands for Independence Referendum Two and now has the opportunity to negotiate with a Prime Minister who is a firm supporter of the WEF (World Economic Forum). Add to that the imminent demands for a resolution to the political deadlock in Northern Ireland and the push to a return to Stormont where Michelle O'Neil will dominate the political negotiations. For Sinn Fein a united Ireland is always the eventual goal.

Both the SNP and Sinn Fein want to undo Brexit, both want to take their countries back into the European Union; in O'Neil's case that will be achieved by a united Ireland, taking Ulster out of the UK and making the six counties part of the Irish Republic. The SNP under Sturgeon wants to sever the Act of Union and to make Scotland an 'independent' country but also immediately a member state of the European Union subject to EU oversight. (Some independence!)

Of course the SNP agenda and the plans of Sinn Fein plays directly to the globalist/WEF strategy of creating a European super-state, a United States of Europe where all national states are reduced to being subordinate provinces of an EU central government ruling from Brussels. All will use the Euro as currency, all will submit to European legislation as directed by Brussels and Strasbourg, Some independence Nicola!

Under modern Scottish Public Order Law - this would be a 'Hate crime' in 2022

SNP Annual Conference Polluted Aberdeen - What Promises are Sturgeon and the SNP Making Now?

 The SNP Annual Conference Polluted Aberdeen

So What Promises are Sturgeon and the SNP Making Now ?

So According to the SNP Conference Indy Two Referendum will take place in October 2023 - or maybe in the 2024 UK General Election if the UK Supreme Court do not Approve or declares the SNP plan as unconstitutional.

A big problem with the SNP's strategy is that by using the 2024 General Election in Scotland as a measure of support for Scottish independence could undermine the SNP voting base. A recent poll for Scotland on Sunday shows that only 32% of the Scottish electorate approve of that tactic, which obviously includes a lot of otherwise SNP voters.

The SNP are totally focussed on Indy Ref Two to the exclusion of all other policies.

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is obsessed to her place in history as the Scottish politician that broke the Act of Union and took Scotland out of the United Kingdom into independence. But should Scotland suffer an uncertain future in the world just to satisfy Nicola Sturgeon's ego?

A clear indication of the First Minister's personal politics was revealed at Aberdeen when she gave an interview to the BBC and declared that she, " I detest the Tories and everything they stand for", followed by, ".... do I think either a Westminster Tory government or a Westminster Labour government is good enough for Scotland, then my answer to that question is no."

So not much room for negotiations there - so what exactly does Nicola Sturgeon want?

" I think we need to see more of a radical alternative from Labour rather than just a pale imitation."

So a political party more Left-wing and radical than the Labour Party at Westminster. Given that the Labour Party across the UK is a mixture of neo-Marxists, internationalists, self-styled democratic-socialists and assorted left-wing 'progressives', that indicates that the SNP wants to see a more Left-wing version of the existing Labour Party. Given that the SNP sees itself as a party of the political Left, the statement above demonstrates how far to the Left the SNP wants to steer politics both across Scotland and in Westminster.

Scotland has been warned - take a good look at the SNP record on governing Alba over the last 15 years, check out the SNP record on managing Scotland's economy, the issues of law and order, the state of NHS Scotland and the SNP record on wasting tax-payer's money on failing projects and the push for 'woke' policies to be enshrined in Scottish laws.

WHAT MATTERS MOST TO THE FIRST MINISTER IS HER PLACE IN HISTORY

Did Anyone See First Minister Sturgeon Getting 'Booed' When She Arrived at Dunfermline City Chambers to Meet King Charles?

That Did Not Suit the Image of Nicola That the SNP Promotes and it Certainly did not Suit the First Minister's Ego.  The First Minister loves a good photo-opportunity and being booed by a section of a loyal pro-monarchy crown did not play to the SNP press office plan.

British Movement Scotland Calls For All Patriotic Scots to Show the SNP the Door in 2023 and 2024. Time to Re-double Our Efforts to Expose the SNP for the Marxist and Globalist Stooges they are and to Save Scotland from the SNP and its Aims of Ripping Apart the United Kingdom and Dragging Scotland Back into the European Union.

SCOTLAND IS A WHITE EUROPEAN NATION

BM Scotland Looks at More SNP Failings Across September.

 BM SCOTLAND LOOKS AT MORE SNP FAILINGS ACROSS SEPTEMBER

SNP Manifesto Pledge on Creating an Energy Company for Scotland That Never Happened 

But the SNP Government still spent over £500,000 of taxpayer's money on the development that never came into being. The SNP ploughed money into 'expert' think tanks, economic consultants and hours of preparing a 'business plan'.

The big idea was first floated by the SNP in 2017 when it pledged to have a 'State Owned' not-for-profit energy provider in Scotland, operating by autumn 2021.

A big idea that never got off the ground as money was spent on developing the scale and scope of the venture but without looking at world markets or considering how such a company would be funded, would be able to compete with existing providers and could take over or buy out the existing energy supply network.

Things have changed, some smaller energy suppliers in the UK have gone out of business, most recently and energy supply company that was based in Edinburgh.

The business planning, building the business case, expert opinions a total spend of over £519,000, wasted on a project that never happened.

This was exposed by a Freedom of Information request, otherwise the SNP would have kept this situation hidden from Scottish voters..

The SNP Slides from Failure to Failure

SNP Slammed over Scotland's Record Drug Deaths

Drug and alcohol related deaths in Scotland are 3.7 times higher than the rest of the UK put together. All on Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP's watch.

STIRLING

In the top ten of the ugliest cities in the UK - Stirling came 7th out of the ten.

What is going wrong?

It is pretty damning when a historic centre such as Stirling is ranked amongst some of the worst cities in the UK. Especially when it falls in with some of the ugliest urban centres in England.

What would William Wallace make of it?

Former SNP MP Gets Community Service Order for Breaking Covid Rules - A Taste of Their Own Medicine.

Former SNP Member of Parliament Gets Community Pay-Back Order 

A Taste of Their Own Medicine

During the Covid/Lockdown crisis, the SNP and its MP's and MSP's were very keen to impose and enforce the draconian freedom restriction measures across Scotland. Remember?

Then in September 2020 there was the classic SNP elitist example of 'Rules for Thee but Not for Me!' when Margaret Ferrier, the SNP Member of Parliament for Rutherglen and Hamilton West, decided to break all her party's rules by travelling freely even though she had 'tested positive' for Covid-19. According to subsequent investigations the errant SNP politician had ignored all the rules she and her party were advocating; she visited several locations in her constituency, went to a beauty salon and various shops, travelled down to London by train, took her place in the House of Commons and made a speech, then having had her test results for Covid confirmed, she decided to catch a train back to Glasgow because she did not want to have to spend two weeks isolated in a London hotel. Once again 'Rules for Thee but Not for Me'.

Finally under a barrage of exposure in October 2020, Ferrier reported herself to the police and to the parliamentary commissioner for standards, and apologised for her conduct. 

Last month (August 2022) Margaret Ferrier stood before Glasgow Sheriff court and admitted that by her conduct she had, "exposed the public to the risk of infection, illness and death." No doubt some BM Scotland readers will consider that last part a bit over the top, but at least Margaret Ferrier MP  has been held to account under rules she helped to impose. She has been ordered by the court to undertake a 270 hour community pay-back order - that is a lot of litter picking and graffiti scrubbing.

Of course Margaret Ferrier is no longer representing the SNP and has been sitting as an Independent for months now. So permanently out of favour with the SNP leadership now that First Minister Sturgeon declared Ferrier's conduct as "dangerous and indefensible". And of course did not reflect the standards expected of an SNP politician. Margaret Ferrier has refused all calls to stand down as a Member of Parliament and stubbornly hangs on to her seat in the House of Commons, a clear case of 'Do as we say, not as we do'.

GLASGOW - Marxist Parade Halted and Dispersed in the 'Interests of Public Safety.

 GLASGOW

Marxist and Irish Republican Parade Thwarted 

September 10th 2022

The Glasgow Divisional Commander of Police Scotland halted the planned parade in the 'interests of public order and public safety'. The opposition to such overt displays of communist and Irish Republican militancy by pan-Nationalist demonstrators and Scottish Loyalists in previous years forced Police Scotland into a re-think and the parade was cancelled. No doubt the police considered that such a parade would inflame the Loyalists especially as the weekend has been marked by patriots and Loyalists as a time to honour the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

A motley collection of Irish Republicans from Cairde na hEireann. various Communist sub-groups, anti-Fa and anarchists were planning to parade down Crown Street to stage a rally at the La Pasionaria Statue at Custom House Quay along the Clyde Walkway. (We bet that is one statue that BLM won't want taking down!)

Pictured above is the Pasionaria Statue on Clydeside that the Left get so giddy about 

The excuse for this public display of militant Marxist revolutionary solidarity was supposed to be to honour the memory of the International Brigades. That is those Marxist and socialist militants who went to Spain in the mid-1930's to fight in the Spanish Civil War against the nationalist forces of General Franco.

Pictured above a screen grab off the internet as Police Scotland block the route of the planned parade, initial police reports claim two arrests on Crown Street for public order offences, but it is unclear who and which side of politics those arrests came from. 

On the SNP front

Meanwhile on the Economy front - the Genius Strategy of the SNP is to Butress Scotland Against Rising Energy Bills by Spending Money the SNP Government Does Not Have !

No doubt the First Minister and her 'economic advisers' have been burning the midnight oil at Bute House as they conjure up a new SNP fantasy as to how they can save Scotland from bankruptcy this coming winter.

Somehow the SNP plan to offer a financial buffer to Scots against the rising cost of energy bills, but have already admitted that the funds to do so do not exist. So where is the money going to come from?

Edinburgh; Forget about bin-strikes, transport strikes, mail strikes or the state of the NHS - Edinburgh City Council is going to apologise for slavery.

 EDINBURGH: forget about bin-strikes, transport strikes, mail strikes or the state of        the NHS - Edinburgh City Council is going to apologise for slavery and Edinburgh's 'historical links to slavery'

Wow ! that will put food on the table and cheer the hearts of every citizen of 'Auld Reekie' won't it ?

Real value for money here because the review by Professor Sir Geoff Palmer only cost the city council £18,500. Sir Geoff Palmer is Scotland's first black professor and his review made ten recommendations to the council to redress the city links to slavery and colonialism. This review shows, "commitment from the council to be progressive, open and honest about the history of Edinburgh."

Interesting use of the word "progressive" by city council leader Cammy Day, after all the word 'progressive' is usually used by the Far-Left to describe their Marxist and socialist politics.

The council are obviously keen to 'virtue signal' its civic 'wokeness' by accepting the review report in full, and said that, " Edinburgh will apologise to those who suffered through the city's involvement in slavery."   The council will also undertake a significant programme to address the issue of buildings, statues and street names. (Here at BM Scotland we wonder how much that will cost?)

Sir Geoff Palmer was careful to explain that the civic apology was very significant and another move towards redress.

"An apology doesn't buy bread, but it gives another form of sustenance." 

(We are sure that will go down well with the folk of Edinburgh trudging to the food banks this winter and struggling to pay heating bills.)

Not surprisingly not everyone has been pleased about this entire process. When the review report was completed in January 2022, the council claimed that it had been battered by protests, but of course these were all the work of 'racists'.  

" it had generated thousands of blatantly 'racist' responses from supporters of right-wing organisations looking to interfere with the process" and of course, " the personal targeting of (Sir) Geoff that I've seen is appalling. I've seen groups that are nothing to do with Edinburgh throwing abuse and scaremongering about a process they clearly know nothing about."

Thus the words of former city council leader Adam McVey. Strange that he accuses "groups that are nothing to do with Edinburgh", because the review report was funded by Edinburgh city council in response to demonstrations in the city by BLM - Black Lives Matter in 2020, where statues were vandalised and slogans painted on civic buildings.  So what was BLM to do with Edinburgh? After all BLM (UK) was an off-shoot of an organisation based in the USA.

BLM slogans in Edinburgh after the 2020 BLM protest in the city. Obviously 'progressive'.

British Movement Scotland believes that in the current economic climate Edinburgh city council should have far better things to spend its time, money and resources on than pandering to some BLM fantasy.

 

Afghan Refugees Don't Want to Live in Scotland - Plus the usual stories of SNP failures.

 AFGHAN REFUGEES DON'T WANT TO LIVE IN SCOTLAND

Plus the usual stories of SNP failures

Afghan refugees

The Afghans were happy enough for the British tax-payer to fund their 'evacuation' from Kabul, and happy enough for British tax-payers to pay for their hotel accommodation and 're-settlement' but now are dictating to the Home Office where in the UK they want to live and what size of house they expect to be provided with. But not in Scotland.

A Home Office report has revealed that there are still more than 10,500 plus Afghans who were airlifted out of Afghanistan by the UK government, who are living in hotels and 'require' housing and settlement.

The same report states that Afghan refugee families are refusing offers of being 're-settled ' in Scotland for several reasons; first the Afghans say that Scotland is too cold, second is that in Scotland they don't speak English ! (what they mean is that the Afghans cannot understand English spoken with Scottish accents), and that the Afghans want to live in London or Greater London. For similar reasons many Afghans are also refusing offers to live in Wales.

The SNP government at Holyrood has bent over backwards in its offers to house refugees, not just the Afghans but also the cross Channel illegal immigrants. Unfortunately the SNP's enthusiasm is not matched by the Afghan 'evacuees' desire to move to Scotland and is seriously hampered by a lack of what the Home Office describes as "suitable housing stock". It seems that Afghan families evacuated from Kabul are on the larger size and are demanding houses with a minimum of four bedrooms. Anyone out there amongst indigenous Scots on a council waiting list?

And Now the SNP Cannae Settle a Strike by the Bin-men!

First the bin-men in Edinburgh went on strike, now the bin-men across Scotland are going on strike and the Holyrood SNP paymasters say that there is not enough cash in the kitty to make any kind of pay-rises for council bin-men.

No doubt First Minister Nicola will follow her usual tactic and go cap in hand to Westminster to beg for more UK government cash to bail out the SNP's mis-management of Scotland's budget.

How will that work when/if Scotland gets independence Nicola ?

And the Scottish economy fails again under the SNP

The latest figures show once again that there is a serious deficit in Scotland's spending.

The Scottish government deficit for 2021-2022 has just be stated as £23.7 billion and no matter how the Holyrood clique juggle the numbers, there is £8 billion not covered by Scotland's overall income.

The latest figures demonstrate that the average Scottish voter is financially better off living in the United Kingdom and would be worse off in an independent Scotland.

So how exactly would an independent Scotland balance the books Nicola?

And Guess Which Government Ministers spent £1 million on chauffeur driven cars?

Yes, nothing like a chauffeur driven car to meet the SNP promises on carbon-neutral or zero emissions. How exactly are the SNP explaining all this to their allies in the Scottish Greens?

Of course the First Minister loves to be delivered to Holyrood in a chauffeur driven car, it fills all her ego-driven sense of self-importance but then tells the Scottish public to stop driving petrol and diesel cars and to use public transport or go electric.

BM Scotland - about ten days ago this blog was temporarily taken down by Google because of a 'Complaint' that iit violated the 'community guidelines' - fortunately    BM Scotland was able to appeal the decision and BM Scotland was re-instated.

This is not the first time that some Left-wing extremist has tried to silence BM Scotland's voice. The Left cannot take the TRUTH and so look for methods of silencing our BM message, they have always liked the idea of making anonymous complaints to service providers to shut us down.

Just another indication that British Movement has to fight to make sure that its British National Socialist voice is heard.
