How nice to be told by Keir Starmer that my mother who delivered babies, as a midwife, worked nights and damaged her back lifting patients as a nurse, was a pillar of her community as a health visitor has caused “incalculable damage” to the UK !

Migration is not the problem.
The two issues that need to be sorted out, but they won't get a mention, are:
Brexit.
Proper taxation of the rich, individuals and Companies.

“Low-skilled worker” is just code for “low-paid, easily exploited.”
It’s not about skill — it’s about power.
And it’s dehumanising. These are people.
People who keep this country running while being treated as disposable.
They deserve respect, rights, and recognition.

2025: Keir Starmer suggests that pressure on housing and public services is because of migrants

2020: Keir Starmer, "Poor housing, poor public services are not the fault of the migrants, they're political failure"

Never have been. Never will be

Keep speaking out!

A national disgrace while our pensioners freeze and starve.

STATE HOOD IS NOT A GIFT FROM A NEIGHBOUR, Says Keir Starmer. If that’s the case then why does Scotlands Neighbour legislate in a manner to prevent Scotland from expressing its self determination. (PLEASE SHARE THIS)

Independence = full control over healthcare decisions. If we want a fully funded, effective NHS, independence isn’t just a political goal – it’s a necessity. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Final Thoughts – Healthcare & Independence
Scotland’s NHS is limited by Westminster’s:
🔻 Budget constraints
🔻 Immigration policies
🔻 Research funding cuts
🔻 Drug pricing controls

💰 Independence = negotiating drug prices based on Scotland’s needs, not UK-wide decisions.

Scotland Doesn’t Control Its Own Drug Prices
Many don’t realise this, but the UK government negotiates drug prices on a national level, meaning Scotland has little say in how much we pay for medicines.
💊 Westminster budget cuts could lead to higher drug costs or shortages in Scotland.

If Ireland, Norway, and Denmark can fund universal healthcare, why can’t Scotland?

The facts:
✅ Scotland contributes billions to the UK but doesn’t control how it’s spent.
✅ Independence = control over tax revenue to invest in healthcare.
✅ Small independent nations successfully run healthcare systems – so why not Scotland?

Can Scotland Afford the NHS After Independence? YES.
One of the biggest myths is that Scotland couldn’t afford its NHS

Solution? Independence = Scotland controls its own immigration policies.
Should Scotland be able to recruit its own NHS staff without Westminster interference?

🚫 UK immigration rules make it harder to bring in qualified healthcare workers.
👩‍⚕️ Scotland needs more international healthcare professionals, but Westminster sets the rules.

Scotland’s NHS Staff Crisis – Westminster’s Immigration Policies Are Hurting Us
Scotland has a shortage of NHS staff, yet we don’t control our own immigration policies.

If Scotland had full control over research funding, we could prioritise women’s health instead of suffering from Westminster’s cuts.

Women’s Healthcare Impact Scotland
Reports show UK universities are cutting research funding, including women’s health studies. Since Scotland relies on UK-wide funding for medical research, this affects our ability to advance healthcare for women.

If the UK gov cuts NHS spending in England, Scotland’s budget is cut too.
What this means:
💰 Less funding, even if Scotland wants to invest more
🔄 No real financial autonomy over healthcare

The NHS is Devolved… But Westminster Still Holds the Purse Strings
The Barnett Formula means Scotland’s NHS funding depends on Westminster’s spending decisions.

How the Union limits Scotland’s NHS & why Independence is the answer.Scotland’s NHS is technically devolved, so why does Westminster still control major aspects of it?
How would Independence improve our healthcare system? Let’s breakdown the facts 👇 #scottishindependence #nhs
