I’m sincerely hoping that @AshReganALBA will take the opportunity today to call for every snp MSP and minister who supported TIE and LGBTYS to resign

Why do your stores bother stocking live plants @Tesco? I see this repeatedly - plants just left to die. And you want folk to pay £18 for a dead plant? How hard would it be to get a member of staff to water plants?
Its time that women, girls started boycotting any team or sports that allow men to compete in their sport. If your a 100 metre sprinter and there are men against you stay in your chocks and let them run, make a mockery of them, the same applies in any sport. Walk off protest.
@TheWeeBrief Thank you for the update. I don't know what all went on and what it's all about - and I don't want to know. I just want to get independence and cut out all the crap that is going on. We will never get independence at this rate, as we are all too busy fighting with each other!
@Rosmoffat I’m an Alba member and still pissed off NEC members would leave, create trouble, stand in a known target seat then demand Alba don’t stand there. There is no Scotland United so neither Alba or Eva is likely to win: as many standing as possible is fine.
