If, and I say ‘if’ the Polls are correct and the SNP are heading for another victory, we are either in agreement with their policies and fiscal spending or we are paralysed by the fear of change.
There is of course the possibility of another explanation for these polls. Are these polls genuine or are they a way of selling a particular product? In this case that product would be the SNP!
Who, exactly do they target when asking the questions? Have you ever been approached?
If you apply to appear on TV live discussions, do you get a form of the ‘Spanish Inquisition’ before they say yes or no? They say ‘its for balance’……I have yet to see a balanced audience!
It’s almost as if we are being forced into silence!
Even X and FB control the algorithms.
Everything that is described as freedom of speech is now controlled.
The only way to unlock the silence is to speak to people on a one-to-one basis.
As for ‘fear’. What have we got to fear? At best, the change put forward by LS, can only improve our lives……at worst, the status quo will remain.
…… and remember LS supports the Decolonisation route and the other groups who are building the foundation blocks. They are not a Lone Star outfit; they have fingers in many pies, and their candidates are well known and respected within the YES movement, with not a whiff of impropriety!
……..now there’s a novelty!
JOAN’S JOURNEY CONTINUES 
You wrote If you apply to appear on TV live discussions, do you get a form of the ‘Spanish Inquisition’ before they say yes or no? They say ‘it’s for balance’……I have yet to see a balanced audience!” Yes you do go through a Spanish style inquisition, I have been on Question time, but only when I LIED, I had tried several times telling the truth meant I was declaring I was an SNP voter & Member, without them saying goodbye that was a NO NO it was a NO NO..Myself and my sister eventually got accepted ONLY when I LIED it was during the run up to the 2014 referendum, I filled in an online application, I said I was not affiliated to any party, & was not sure what way to vote in the referendum but was leaning towards NO…
I then got a call some days later, I am sure the woman who called me was name Allison she was in charge of the selecting the audience.. She asked a LOT of questions, wanted to know my thoughts as a Pensioner..
I pretended I believed that I would lose my pension if I voted yes.. She Asked what party I had either voted for or thought about voting for, I said I USED to vote Labour, I have never voted for any unionist party in my life, my very first vote went to the SNP as I have always believed in INDEPENDENCE for this country.. She even asked if there ws anymore me like in my family, I said yes, and gave her my sisters name and NUMBER.. As we had BOTH been trying to get on question time.. I was told that she looked forward to meeting me, so I was IN.. As soon as I hung up I called my sister right away and told her she was going to get a call, and how to answer the questions and to never mention the SNP, we were both members..
Then when we got to the venue, we were given a piece of paper to write down questions you would like to ask or hear asked.. That was our let down we wrote down the wrong questions, we were honest then..
So YES what they do get a balanced audience, balanced to suit the UNIONIST & WM Parliament..
And NO I have never ever been contacted by anyone or any party to ask how I intended to vote.. I do not know anyone who has, and I have a very large extended family..
But we really need to see leaflets and other merchandise that we can display for the ALLIANCE, and I hope that we can see and hear from the people who will be standing in May in some venues we can attend where people can see them for themselves, NOT everyone is on social media or watches Prism, although I never miss a show… Keep up the good work Joan, your blog always lifts my spirits..
