Last week, my brother had a TIA [ transient ischemic attack ] not entirely unexpected at his age with AF, but what was disturbing was that his doctor missed a warning sign two weeks earlier, even though a Paramedic highlighted the possibility to the doctor.
Warning signs are important and political ones are no less important. We keep hearing words like ‘the writing is on the wall’ but we plod on as if it had nothing to do with us…..but it has everything to do with us!
Why?
Because every bad decision our political masters make…our lives and pockets pay for it.
We need more defience not compliance!
When politicians come with excuses, take it as a warning sign, things will only get worse. You only have to look at the Energy costs to see what I mean.
Just look at what Scotland produces, yet pays the highest costs in Europe.
Take a step back and start asking yourself the hard questions first. Then ask yourself what you can do about it….. Because believe it or not you are not as helpless as you think you are!
The comeback starts here, this is the place you STOP feeling helpless and start taking back control. This is the place where, eventually your energy prices will start to come down because you will control them!
Liberate Scotland believes in Direct Democracy but it will be up to you to make it happen through them. There is no ‘magic fairy’…..you are it, like it or not!
If we want change…….WE must be that change!
No opt-outs, no excuses…..we either want it or we don’t!
Scotland will never be Independent unless those 55% become active…..be it hitting the streets or hitting the keys we must apply the pressure needed to cause the political earthquake required in Scotland.
The warning signs are there, Scotland is being sold off one piece at a time to the big profiteering companies whose bank accounts lie offshore!
Apathy kills……dont be the one who kills the dream!
JOAN’S JOURNEY CONTINUES 
Just so that people are absolutely clear here: the reason that we have such anomolously high Electricity prices is that the system that creates these enormous profits by extracting wealth through the mechanism of privatised utility services was carefully constructed to serve the City of London and international capital.
When we restore our independence we need to acknowledge that these iniquities will not change unless we force policy change on those external actors.
They will fight against change. We must fight for it!
For YEARS the uk (spit) energy companies have been regaling us with the reason energy is SOOOO expensive is because it is subject to market conditions , in other words they are involved in energy auctions which keeps the price of energy extremely expensive
Unfortunately with the majority of people within Europe paying much much less for energy than the uk especially Scotland it raises a couple of questions
Are our energy suppliers so incompetent that they cannot bid effectively against European competitors , there are many multi national owned companies operating in Scotland and the uk YET their home countries have nowhere near our high prices , meaning that either their home countries are SUBSIDISED by those companies or the uk is subsidising those countries through our exorbitant energy prices
Another answer that is more likely is that they are just LYING through their teeth to uk consumers and as usual our politicians and governments do absolutely hee haw
