I am getting goosebumps just listening to Alex, thank you Alex and ALBA for continuing to fight for Independence. Independence is the ONLY way Scotland can be the country it is meant to be, good luck xx
Great presentation from Alex. From where I am sitting the S.N.P. looks like it is on its knees and is almost as clueless about what to do moving forward as, dare I say it the RED and BLUE Tories. Under Alex's stwerardship the S.N.P. grew from strength to strength and were getting things done but since he resigned the S.N.P. has, in my view as a former S.N.P. member, gone backwards and independence has almost certainly been put on the slow burner and is no longer seen as a "must have" policy but more of a "would be nice to have at some indeterminate time in the future" policy. In fact it looks to me like the S.N.P. are so far away from getting fully onboard with Scottish independence these days that they only seem to talk about it at any length during elections, it's almost like they are using the call for Scottish independence as a way to garner votes because they know there is not much else they have in their locker that can attract independence voters. The S.N.P. needs a damned good kick up the backside to get things back on track and ALBA is the instrument to do this. ALBA clearly have the ideas, they clearly have the know how, they are clear about what has gone wrong and is going wrong both within Scotland and at Westminster. For the sake of everyone who is independence minded we need ALBA representatives both at Holyrood and at Westminster, the more the merrier in my view. Good luck to Al;ex and all the ALBA candidates standing in Thursday's election.
TWENTY + reasons why Scots should vote for the SNP. 1) Best NHS by country mile with more GP's, Dr's, Nurses, Dentists (95% Scots registerd with NHS Dentist), Police officers per head than rUK. 2) Social housing 6 times higher than rUK and 50% higher than Labour. 3) Child Payments that are protecting 100k Scots kids from poverty not available in rUK. 4) On average lowest Council tax than rUK. 5) GDP 30% higher in Scot than rUKI 6) Deadly Measles infections seven times more likely in rUK thanks to higher immunisation in Scotland. 7) Best, most extensive, highest subsidised and cheapest Ferry service in the World operating consistantly at 98% efficiency. 8) Homeownership amongst the young far higher than rUK. 9) Fastest decarbonising than rUK. 10) Slabour PFI still costing councils £30bn. 11) Welsh Labour gov increasing student loans by £9250 whilst FREE for the vast majority of Scottish students. 12) Children
Rubbish. Your standards are obviously too low. Waiting lists are outrageous, with some being seen 9 months later. Most can't get a dentist. Social housing rents are still too high, and it should be Council Housing, not external companies/associations which just cost more to run. Plus the quality is low, both housing and services. Child payments do not go to the child but the parents, who spend it on what, and just how far does £25 go? The only way to end child poverty is to end parent poverty, and that means real jobs paying real wages. So what is the SNP doing to stimulate business growth? Council tax may be lower than rUK but still too high... just look at the poor services we're getting, rubbish everywhere, etc, while the Council Heads are collecting £100,000+ salaries for what? Don't boast about the Ferries. The SNP gave the contracts to the wrong company and what an absolute shambles, costing 3 times more too, and 2 times more costly to run. The contract should have gone to Stuart Ballantyne, who would have delivered. The tax system is totally unfair and has put too many into higher brackets than they ought to be. As for the NHS, it's not merely more money they need but proper management with less managers and unnecessary staff. The SNP has been a costly failure, focussed on vanity projects, jumping on every stupid bandwagon that rolls along. They are not serving Scotland nor Scots. How do the Freeports help us, especially when they block the way to membership of the EU?
You cannot propose to save Grangemouth as a refinery, and want to stop the sale of petrol/ diesel cars, so people buy electric vehicles. The decision to close the plant as a refinery and re-open as a distribution hub, is a decision taken by the company to meet the demands of governments wanting to ‘go green. As more people buy electric cars, petrol will not be needed in the same quantities. Losing jobs as a result of ‘going green’is something governments don’t talk about when promoting green issues and other ideas just to keep the voters happy. The steelworks in Wales is another example. For years people complained about the amount of energy the blast furnaces used. Now that the company is wanting to close them, and replace them with more efficient electric arc furnaces with the loss of hundreds of jobs, people are complaining about their actions. Cannot have it both ways, and there are more job losses to come as more and more companies, factories, shops etc are forced to cut emmissions by a certain date. Those coming away with ‘green ideas’ in their manifestos, don’t talk about the job losses that will happen as a result.
Glad UK general election finished Thomas yes. Better off with Italy. Scotland forever. Scottish parliament forever. That achievement politically. Pietro Boselli Italian support Scotland.
Partys cant get out of the colional administration only a anti colional libration movement can do this going ouside the colional rule to seek internatinal support to the ICJ not the superme court the colinzer wont give you permission to leave
should have done this when he won the largest electoral vote ever. and he had the earls and lords, he had the mandate then but he chose the referendum route
Awesome. Brilliant stuff politically for Scotland. Support Keith woods Age 28 Eire Ireland Dublin it in EU Ireland as member state. Support STV voting system for UK general election in England London Britain. Labour party landslide victory over conservative government. Art Bezrukavenko deliver it. Unionist Labour party British government. It National government in England London Britain Thomas Mel stride conservative MP told you truth on BBC news.

Been campaigning for alba party since the party came to be… Alex salmond for first minister again 💚
Had his chance screwed up
@@johncrawford8214agree .
And we’re better off with John swinney.. anas sarwar or Douglas Ross think would rather have salmond back
@RyanMitch-rh4ki No we are better off with no SNP or Alba. Have you been hibernating for last few years.
@@johncrawford8214no he never
Good luck Alex and Alba! Time for the SNP to get out of the road. They have taken independence back decades wit their inaction and false promises.

And then you wake up
@@MargaretWood-z6land you wake when you're UK dies
@@MargaretWood-z6lyes,in the same vain it's time the British people woke up.
Oh how I wish that Alba had a candidate standing in my constituency.
Same.
Instead of wishing, why don't you put your name forward? 👍
Not one to wish time away, but very much looking forward to 2026!
💙🤍💙
You are so badly missed Alex wish you where still here 😢

Ash voting with unionists was despicable

None of them do & it won't happen anyway, your ruled in Britain.
