When @scottishgreens say that @jk_rowling ‘isn’t helping’ what they mean is, she’s not helping them with their policy. Having differing opinions is called democracy…or at least it used to be??

Leaving @theSNP wasn’t easy at the time. When asked why I did, I say it’s not the party I joined in 2007. Today they illustrated that answer. As if ‘Ease the Squeeze’ wasn’t insulting enough to those in poverty!WHAT.HAVE.THEY.BECOME?? #AlbaForIndependence

All well and good, Stewart but it’s not really that simple - women make up around 51% of our population therefore, the issues around safe spaces, sport and prison estate etc impacts a massive number. Hard fought women’s rights must be protected along with the safety of girls.

Another snub of @AlbaParty from the @theSNP and on a hugely important issue - the YES movement is vocal in its desire for all Indy parties to work together - the SNP just can’t shift their feelings of entitlement though.

Given the current profoundly concerning situation on the streets of England, I am pleased that @JohnSwinney called a meeting with Holyrood Party Leaders to discuss planning and preparations to keep Scotland safe. Still, I am perplexed at why I was excluded from the discussion 1/2

I will campaign alongside any serious politician advocating Scottish independence. That is the “big tent” approach I adopted in 2014 which took the Yes campaign so close to victory. It is even more correct today (1/2)
