- The aftermath of the GE has left an indelible mark on the nation's political landscape. For some, the election results have brought a wave of optimism. For others, it has raised concerns about the direction the UK is heading and the challenges that lie ahead. The ramifications of the SNP wipeout extends beyond party politics as the Independence Movement must now navigate this new political landscape, the focus needs to be on rebuilding and reengaging with people to address their evolving concerns and aspirations.
Brilliant show guys.
Fantastic show. Producing honesty and solutions 👏👏
Brilliant AGAIN thanks
According to Swinney support for Indy is more than 50%. If that is the case why won't the SNP *HONESTLY* detail cost and timings for their post-indy plans for defense, growing the Scottish economy, which currency, borders with the RUK, export / import tariffs, fisheries protection vessels, embassies, a passport office, a DVLC office, a GCHQ equivalent and so on and put that document to a plebiscite, which if successful could then provide a strong argument for Indy rather than quoting a polling company that the SNP pay £ 5,000,000 out of taxpayers money. In short there needs to be a compelling, truthful and realistic vision of Independence.
Ah a unionist interloper. You can tell as they are the only ones that think independence is about £££. You just don't get it and it is why you will never defeat the cause and independence is inevitable.
All that has been done by different Groups. ie Scottish Currency Group has currency, banking etc. ALL READY TO GO.Even sample money is there! Go look it up! CommonWeal has put out lots of different plans for various things... again, go check their website. Unfortunately, the SNP could care less about Independence so they're not interested in detailing all that will happen. Speak to THEM. Ask THEM why nothing has been put out as to what Scotland will look like. But to be honest, an independence Scotland will look a helluva lot better than austerity union. So I'll take it, whatever it looks like! It CAN ONLY BE BETTER. Because as God is my witness - it CANNOT BE WORSE than tory britain.
No, not a unionist but the priority of the option polls on independence shows that NHS jos, schools and as the largest employment in Scotland is public sector, the young people leave after funded university. The unemployment figures have gone up. There needs to be jobs, better NHS, better infrastructure. Show the map.
Blackpeas go away unionist troll talking through your backside again
Swinney couldn't tell the difference between sugar and excrement.
“We’re coming fur ye” gave me a chuckle. Cheers guys😂
Scotland needs a new independence party to unite the clans.. Maybe Independence for Scotland or an assembly for independence.. It needs to have it in the title of the party 🏴❤🏴.. We also need experts in everything like equality, the Scottish NHS, energy and land reform, to name just a few.. all things for all people.
Experts in everything is a big ask, in fact, ask the same question to say 3 experts and you'll get 5 different answers, better would be (I think) managers with proven experience of large budget project management, who have the necessary ability to take input and evaluate options and focus on their delivery without micro managing - in other words NOT the Lorna Slater approach.
We don't need another party. Voters are sick of parties. A Convention of Independence candidates perhaps, working together but NOT another party machine. We already have SNP Mk1, Mk11 (ALBA) and Mk111 (ISP) and they don't work.
We had a fantastic 'action machine' in 2014 encompassing all parties and none. We need that again. If we do not use the 2016 HR election as a plebiscite and sweep the unionists aside. Otherwise Labour will be in power, they will disband Holyrood and the cause will be set back 50 years. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!
The problen is;
WHERE"S THE YOUTH??
Sturgeon, that's where it all went wrong.
Cranks
“Scotland was the most educated electorate in history before the 2014 referendum.” Isn’t that a pretty worrying statement for the cause?
We still are. Wait and see.
Spare me the lies
@@Saffy-yr8vo wait and see what? The Scottish Parliament being dissolved?
Brilliant / Gwych 👏👏👏
I have despaired over the Scottish vote, but you guys have given me fresh hope.
You are so right Sally. We need to get off the tracks and head off across the fields instead. Time for the people to do things differently and start taking control themselves.
Watched Joanna on BBC Clip this morning, why didn't she go independent candidate
Just got a chance to watch this episode. The canvassing tool is the first promising and hopeful step ive heard yet since the election. Well done The Prism Team.
I do think a new party might be required. Alba and ISP just aren't cutting it; ISP just don't get seen really and Alba is seen as Alex's party, and, for good or bad, that's a problem.
*UPDATE1* - I've been casting around social media for people's views (SNP and non-SNP voters both) of why the SNP lost - initially I thought of a 'top ten', but it got bigger quickly, so here's what came up, they are roughly in order of importance to the electorate as far as I could see. If you feel anything is missing or needs changing please 'reply'. Any duplication, errors etc - my fault.
Arrogance and incompetence of the SNP government
Failure to listen to the Electorate and not focussing on issues that matter to them
Named Persons Bill, Gender Recognition, Trans Rights, Hate Crime, DRS not wanted, those Ferries
Too many know nothings in Cabinet and too much emphasis on 'green' issues
Where's the money, especially the £ 600,000 and the £ 61,000,000 'missing' from 'ring fenced' agriculture funds.
Forever blaming someone else - Brexit, Westminster, Conservatives, Labour and even Thatcher - FGS Brexit was 8 years ago.
Obsession with power not Independence
Always lying about the support for Independence - give us a plebiscite
White, White, White
Always bleating on about independence without addressing real needs
Lack of honesty and transparency - lying, cheating and stealing - Matheson's iPad
Dictatorship style of Sturgeon led to divisiveness and incited hatred of pro-union people
Didn't talk about anything other than Indy in their speeches & literature.
Failure to actually make any move towards Independence in 17 years
Last 3 or 4 years considered the worst government Scotland has had
SNP run as a Cabal, the cult was a closed shop, no dissent tolerated
Uninspired leadership of last 2 FMs
Incompetent, hubristic, arrogant, corrupt and divisive, especially the cybernauts & keyboard warriors
Criminal incompetence of the SNP and the stink of corruption
PMQ's focussed on GAZA not Scotland.
Sturgeon Attacks on Salmond
I have received *3 quite strong messages* which I have edited for brevity and/or taken the 'stronger words' out of : The SNP needs to take it's head out of its ar$e & start working towards its declared goal whilst running Scotland in ways that will improve education, health, local services and internal / external investment and increase TRUST in their ability to run a country. Why would we ask for independence from the UK, only to hand it over to Brussels ? Thatcher, Westminster, Conservatives & Labour are NOT the problem - SNP arrogance and incompetence is.
I've lived in Ireland and seen the country destroyed by treacherous politicians that are now being ruled by the EU and because of that, Irish people have became second class citizens; I fear this would happen in Scotland. Having seen it, I worry the SNP would go along with things and be controlled by the EU if we joined. I want a country that's free from outside interference.
Stop quoting Eire as a good example of a small independent country, it's *OVER 75 YEARS* since we got full independence and now were don't have it.
In 2026 the nationalist will come out because Holyrood IS the Scottish parliament, Westminster IS the English parliament. In 2026 Scotland just takes her independence and this must be made aware to the whole world.
I have been a long term supporter of SNP. My frustration has steadily increased until disillusionment had taken over. I'm now fired up once again having listened to you all for the second time. But why had I never heard of you before? I will be spreading the word. Great work folks.
Great news Ellen. Prism speak the language of reality and courage and solutions. This irks many of the status quo in the movement particularly the diehard loyalists to the SNP. The reason why many won't talk about or share this. Many thousands do know though and have known for years. Welcome aboard.
You guys are on the right track, REAL nationalists, but we all must do what has to be done, as in breaking British law. We must have people who are NOT out to make a political career. To be a candidate you only have to be a true nationalist even if your shy, have a stutter, not nice looking, fat, skinny, too young, too old, English, American, German Chinnese any race at all.
this is ridiculous🤣🤣
I put NOT MY PARLIAMENT on my paper (Argyll) because no candidates worth voting for. Brendan O'Hara won again for SNP
Excellent. I've just started watching since the beating on Thursday.
Brilliant idea.
Inflation will end the union imo. Sad that Alba feel that a payment of £500 yr (if i understand the policy) will have any impact on the brutally unfair poverty levels in Scotland. Graeme McCormick (SNP) knows how to end the poverty and turn around the lack of housing with his AGFRR (Annual Ground Floor Roof Rent) where those who have benefited the most from inflation/ currency devaluation contribute more.
Strange-you talk as though Holyrood has nothing to do with poverty in Scotland, even with Scotland having the highest income tax in the UK
When ireland becomes unified, scottish indepence,wont be far away,and aye think it will be quick.
We now have the advantage of being able to operate under the radar.
Btw think lots are desperate for a new ‘party’.
What you said about Sinn Fein is spot on. We should let the snp do what they like in Holyrood, organise a grassroots party and show the ppl Their opinions thro that prism! 😂 then find out how SF did it and just do what they’ve done. That would distract us all from continual slagging sessions. That is too time consuming.I know as I do it maself. Ppl have had their moans now and are looking forward to new positives.
Phil 👏👏👏
Scotland United Party (SUP)
Is this channel supporting a particular party? I hear a lot of slagging off of SNP, Labour and so on, which I agree with, but even after reading through all the info on the channel I can't see what party you;re supporting. It would be helpful if you wrote something on the channel about your allegiances. Alba? Another party?
5 of the panel have no political allegiance and 1 is a member of the SNP we are however united for Scottish Independence
@@allanalba which means what? The EU? I am keeping tabs on this channel out of curiosity but if the idea you's all share is to leave the UK in order to rejoin the EU then you are just as cringe as the SNP
@@ResistingTheLies we do not believe we need to join the EU to be a successful independence nation, we would possibly join EFTA but I for one would oppose joining any political union ever again.
@@allanalba my kinda guy, alba Gu Bràth my friend x
So it’s an App! That’s weird I must have read your minds. How’s about another app like the one I was talking about. With general news and visuals and a bit of fun. Hate to say without the grassrooters politicians are as dry as f!@k We are the home of internationally loved computer games, although that might be a bit far. But you know if you just get folk’s attention …….
"if you just get folk’s attention ……." Trust is important, so then the lies, personal attacks and divisiveness MUST STOP as that trust will be undermined.
You fail to grasp the concept.
Hi there, going feet in first hope you don’t mind me noticing whether it was maself or other you were answering perhaps you could describe the concept in a visual fashion. Telling someone they don’t get it is not helpful when you want folk to understand it? You could have said ‘details coming soon’ or similar?You all know each other well but we don’t know you. You’re talking amongst yourselves about situations and people. That’s ok for an overview. Eva said we’ve got to stop slagging everyone yet (we’ve all got folk we don’t like) but you all jumped into y to slag off folk in the snp and others in a personal way which didn’t come across as very professional. You don’t need to tell the folk who didn’t turn out to vote why they didn’t although the numbers bit was interesting.dyo see what I mean?we are all full of bile but ALL OF US have to calm it doon as viewers WILL pick you all off for ‘unseemly’ as they see it behaviour. Hope this helps. I’ve been RT ing you on Twitter.
Think we’re all guilty of it. When you’re angry it’s too easy. I get stuck down that rabbithole too. Agree we’ve got to watch our P’s and Q’s but we’ve got to ignore a lot of the judgement too as that’s what we get distracted by.
Independence... as in out with the UK and the EU or out with the UK but inside the EU? Not hearing any clarification in this particular stream. What is this channels position?
The channel is geopolitically aware and understands the perils of joining the EU, thus supports the logical position of entering EFTA and the EEA but not the EU itself.
I noticed over the last few weeks a huge increase in saltires flying from homes and gardens. Which lifted my heart, until I realised it was for football and probably not for independence. Which made me angry. People only supporting Scotland in football. Not in fact.
😂
I think that app you’re about to launch will develop.excuse my ignorance as a pleb but what dyo do with all that info if it comes back negative and no one is engaging for instance????
Sally blaming foilage for losing 😂
I think I may have mentioned the vape. Sorry to be snowflake like, genuinely, I just find it distracting (and easily remedied) but regardless I will continue to listen to the show.
My sons pals are all huge yessers. They voted Reform. I reckon this maybe an issue in 26.
Sally, we might think about withholding our council taxes to get them too to sit up and take note.
We need an ideas box. Or do we?
Like an Ideas App !
Right I’ve said too much, bye 👍🏻😂 enough
Grass roots ❤
The weatherman says we've had a nationalist movement since 1707? Must be the shittest movement of all time. Great content though, would watch again 🤣
PRISM up until yesterday I have never heard of you, so you are every bit as bad as all the rest of the parties, I have never been approached by any independent party, since I knocked on doors with Tom McAlpine, I have voted independence all my life first person was a man called Rankine, I do believe if your voted to the Westminster parliament, you stay up here and not play the game of the unionist parliament. Because it turns heads and happy to play the Westminster game and everyone of them, they are all the same once they get down there.
Mmmm
Stop all the fn arguing we all need to come together too busy complaining about snp alba or greens instead of fighting against unionism . .
When did Prism fall out with Alba and Joanna Cherry? Last time I watched they were fawning all over them.
You need to stop labelling and calling these people names. People you don't even know.
Why?
By their deeds shall ye know them.

@@allanalba My comment has already been deleted. The people I am referring to are the ordinary people who make comments and are name called and told to go away by Roddy.
Well these are the people that have gone away because their concerns and questions were not addressed.
