Ooh it seems East Ayrshire is an area with one of the highest percentage of people who identify as being Scottish 🏴, not British. And of course that means anyone who lives here from any part of the globe. Nice 😊

What a disgrace - that a man speaking Scots in the Scottish Parliament - which opened again in 1999 with a Scottish poem by our national bard - Rabbie Burns, also from Ayrshire - that Billy Kay is also from, is subjected to hate speech later on social media because he sent a truly uplifting message to the nation in the Scottish language.
Our message for Billy Kay is - Thank you for all that you...

"It’s the local elections tomorrow, and as with every election in Scotland over the past few years, it will be used as a proxy referendum on support for independence.

Effective from 1975, the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 passed by the tory government of Edward Heath introduced a system of two-tier local government in Scotland divided between large regional councils and smaller district councils. The only exceptions to this were the 3 island councils of Western Isles, Shetland and Orkney which had the combined powers of regions and districts.

Not necessarily connected to our campaign for 21st century Scottish independence, but none the less, maybe of interest to those who enjoy finding out more about local history:
According to the 'History of the County of Ayr' - Dean Castle in Kilmarnock had the honour of a visit from the army of Edward I of England during the first Scottish War of Independence (1296-1328). It appears that they...

Despite the BBC blackout of the 'B' word [aka Brexit] - whose trade agreements between the EU and the UK came fully into force one year ago today - research last week by the London School of Economics’ Centre for Economic Performance revealed the true impact of the new barriers on trade, subsequent increase in food prices, and found that the UK imports from the EU fell about 25% more than UK...

A new bill that would give the Treasury a veto over how devolved administrations spend money on reserved matters which could block Scotland from holding a second independence referendum is being drafted by former Scottish Labour MP George Foulkes -allegedly with the backing of senior Tory MP Liam Fox and the Conservative peer Michael Forsyth.
If passed, it would allow the UK Government to dictate...

Nicola Sturgeon has accused the Tories of having short-changed the people of the north-east of Scotland, claiming that the oil-rich region has been “robbed” of an eye-watering £1.77 billion: saying "The Tories should be ashamed of the way they have let down families, communities and businesses across the region – with broken promises and damaging cuts."
