Sorry but I don't think the hatred and divide is specifically caused by the independence movement.
I think it's caused by having a UK government which doesn't reflect the wishes of the Scottish people and the general toxic politicali ssues in the UK e.g. Brexit.
Erm that would be the independence movement...freedom from the oppressive English. And I am sorry but why the
duck would you want to remain the EU, I lived in Scotland uk, since 1967, could move freely around the world (in fact went on a few holidays to various countries in Europe, never an issue, never a problem, then came the EU, fkn rules for banannas, jfc, and that was only the start.
Nope the recent GRC bill really was a wake up call, a man can rape a woman. get charged as a man, then get convicted as a woman and go to an all female prison...and yes whilst that particular case has been resolved, it was setting a dangerous precedent.
But what I feel is more concerning is that Nicola Sturgeon didn't actually care about trans rights, womens rights or anything else, all she has ever done is try to manipulate people into voting for her and erg independence, regardless of what the outcome for everyday people is. I honestly believe that bill was passed in Scotland, full in the knowledge that Westminster would block it and Nicola thought that would give her a powerful indyref2 lever, "omg the nasty westminster are blocking the wish of the Scottish people) when in fact, very few people wanted the full (without amendments) bill to pass and sorry but I think it was the bullying nature of SNP politics that got it through holyrood)
She gambled..she lost.
