Today's video is about three subjects - the new full-scale Scottish poll from Find Out Now showing the SNP with a handsome lead on the constituency ballot, the defections of a number of councillors and parliamentary candidates from the Scottish Greens to the new Jeremy Corbyn / Zarah Sultana party, and the Irish presidential election count which is taking place today.

With barely two months of the year left to go, the 2025 Scot Goes Pop fundraiser is still short of its target figure. If you'd like to help keep the lights on during the several months it will take me to find out whether an alternative funding model is viable (realistically it could be a wait of around four months or more), card donations are welcome HERE. Or, if you prefer, direct donations can be made via PayPal. My PayPal email address is: jkellysta@yahoo.co.uk
Many thanks to everyone who has donated so far.
Can you go back to writing? Cannae be arsed opening You Tube at breakfast
ReplyDeleteYou posted that at 3.49pm. Breakfast? Seriously?
DeleteAs I would have thought has been obvious, I've been trying extremely hard to make conventional blogging work for years without success. It was financially sustainable before 2021, but not since. I'm turning to YouTube as a last resort, not as a first preference. So the answer to your question is no. If YouTube doesn't work out, I'll try something like Substack, although inevitably that would mean some of the posts would be behind a paywall, which I really don't think would be progress.
I’m in agreement, not cos I have my breakfast in the afternoon but because I like to see these numbers written down to look at. Also having recently gone back on FB for first time in years there was a lot of talk of another pro Yes poll on there recently which you haven’t covered, was it legit?
DeleteYou'd have to send me the link, I've no idea what you're referring to.
DeleteWhat's so difficult about "opening" youtube? All you do is click on the youtube icon and James's video starts within three or four seconds. Make sure you have an ad-blocker ... such as the free Adblock Plus. I much prefer the videos to the text.

DeleteI'm not sure Ellie Gommersall really knows what she wants in life.
ReplyDeleteA name that doesn't rhyme with Duncan Hothersall?
DeleteI'm not sure who Ellie Gommersall is, but I'd say she's happy there's an S in her surname.
DeleteI cannot comment via your twitter account as you blocked me back in your days with Alba. I noted the twitter response to your latest comments onnthe poll. Similar number of unionist responses to the last time you commented on an SNP poll lead. The unionists are getting worried.
ReplyDeleteThe unionists, far from getting worried are continuing to toast the strategy devised by J S. For unionists and devolutionists Swinney’s strategy is a work of political genius, effectively blocking any prospect of Indy progress for the foreseeable future. All in the name of Swinney’s demand for legitimacy in the mandate to progress Independence. Only unionists and devolutionists could want such an outcome.
