I don't think even people in the SNP who really like John Swinney were prepared for just how swiftly the SNP has swung right under his watch over the past six months
I’m sure pandering to anti-immigrant sentiment will go as well for the SNP as it’s going for Labour

The SNP's technology minister has attacked critics of AI as anti-science and 'problematic'. This is quite simply bootlicking the oligarchs of Silicon Valley. The SNP is softening Scotland up for the spread of data centres. They're on the wrong side of public opinion.

SNP have become craven bootlickers of US tech oligarchs
Scotland’s tech minister, Alyn Smith, has taken to sneering at voters concerned about AI. Neil Mackay says he’s picked the wrong side and is dangerously out of touch

The UK Government must use £5.1 billion in forecast oil and gas tax receipts over the next year to fund the Acorn carbon capture project, the SNP have said

I’d love for The National to investigate why the FM & SNP are so opposed to the argument that Scotland has been colonised. In my timeline, yesterday I had a claimed SNP member attack me because I said the SNP must be brave & honest & get behind the decolonisation argument. They don’t like LS/Salvo.

This amounts to 25 TIMES the overspend on the 2 ‘SNP Bad’ ferries (that at least exist)
