Hello Sara
I read on the Internet that:
One in 4 children in Scotland (24%) are living in poverty. 1 in 5 working age people (19%) in Scotland are living in poverty. 14% of pensioners in Scotland are living in poverty. 61% of working age adults in poverty and 68% of children in poverty live in a household where someone is in employment.
In my local small library in Auchterarder yesterday I saw an elderly couple sitting having a cup of coffee from a flask. The library is now a ‘warm’ space where people who cannot afford to heat their homes can keep warm. The librarian said some elderly people are now coming and sitting every day. What brought tears to my eyes was the sight of free warm packs (see above) – carrier bags with blankets and things to keep children warm. And this in 2022 in Scotland!
It is estimated that England will extract around £80billion of natural resources from Scotland sovereign territory within the next five years.
I hope Salvo can help to end this Unionist tyranny before too long as I agree with you that our Scottish politicians will not save us. I fear the lessons we have from history when democracy and sovereignty is denied to a people. This continuing English domination will not stand…
Kind regards
Robert
MY COMMENTS
The need for and use of warm places is real and needed now as winter begins to bite. I remember back in the early 1990’s in Tallinn Estonia the energy crisis as Russia was toying with energy supplies and rationing was in force with big areas being denied power for many hours at a time. This when it was possible temperatures could be as low as minus 20 or worse. People travelled to areas not being rationed and the Scottish and Irish owned pubs in the centre of town were regular and popular places. It gave the owners real problems as people took seats ordered one drink and nursed it for many hours. Nobody got tossed out but it cost them a lot because paying customers found it difficult to get a seat or a table. I suspect our local hostelries will experience the same this winter.
We like to think that Scotland is a country where we care for our own and this winter we are going to have to prove it. Here are some things we can do.
1 if a local church or charity is providing a “warm place” or some soup for the poor and the elderly, drop in and leave them a donation, whatever you can afford, don’t just walk by and leave it to others.
2 if you know of pensioners or a poorer family living nearby and you suspect they may be struggling invite them into your home for a meal. Introduce them to your children, before you know it you can have a babysitter which gives you the excuse for them to spend time in your house regularly, with them thinking they are doing YOU the favour.
3. Remember the homeless, as interest rates rise and unemployment builds this is going to become a growing problem. Again small regular donations can make a huge difference.
4. try and reduce your own energy footprint. Cut the number of lights on, turn the thermostat down a few degrees. Wear a jumper if that helps.
5. sign up to Liberation.Scot. Read up about Scotland’s assets belonging to the people of Scotland and are being robbed by Westminster despite the fact that they have no right to our assets as Scotland remains a sovereign territorial nation with sovereignty remaining with the people of this country. Watch this
6. above all CARE. Most people find caring and helping others a most warm and rewarding experience.
If you do then I hope you have a lovely Christmas…because you have worked to make our country a better place. Little stones doth mountains make!
I am, as always
YOURS FOR SCOTLAND
BEAT THE CENSORS
Unfortunately some pro Indy websites are not pro Indy. They are pro SNP sites and ban any content on their sites which dares to question the SNP or the SNP leader. They seek to censor discussion and free expression. Fortunately many of my readers share the articles on Yours for Scotland frequently and because of this the attempted censorship is proving ineffective. This support is very important and I thank everyone who share and protect freedom of speech and choice.
