Scotland NEEDS independence, to take control of our energy.
It's Scotland's energy

🔎 When we say Stop the Scottish Energy Bill Rip-Off, we are saying something bigger than “shave a few pounds off the price cap”.

New CBI report shows business investment in Scotland is at a 20-year high.

Despite damaging Westminster decisions like Brexit or Labour's tax on jobs, our economy has many strengths.

Imagine how much more we could do with the full powers of independence.

The #FlagofEurope is the flag of both the Council of Europe & EU.
It symbolises "human rights, peace, democracy and the rule of law."
These are Scots' values too.
Only #independence will bring Scotland the power to fully put them into practice.

An energy-rich Scotland must mean energy-rich Scots.

We can’t allow Westminster to squander our energy wealth again.

I wonder if, at last, such generation will result in lower bills in Scotland where much of that 'cheapest electricity in Europe' electricity is generated. Not holding my breath.

Norway used its energy wealth to build one of the most prosperous and fair societies in the world.

Scotland can do it too, with the fresh start of independence.

😡 Westminster governments have always treated Scotland as an afterthought, a 'region' far removed from their interests –until it comes time to put the heating on.

Why should you support Scottish Independence?

• You strengthen local democracy.
• You control your own revenues.
• You set policies that fit your communities.
• You invest in services that reflect your priorities.
• You build growth that stays in Scotland.

What's hard to understand?

Look - we've been through this before. Look at how just 1.20% extra in the COMBINED vote took SNP from 63 seats to 69 seats. If every YESSER (54%) treat SE2026 as defacto vote on IR2 & votes SNP 1&2, only an idiot can think there wouldn't be a majority SNP. Unlike you, I want Indy, NOT Devo.
