Scotland’s most rebutting – With greater resourcing Talking-up Scotland is surging – a third more rebutting lies and revealing hidden truths

Halfway through 2026, with increased resources kicking in, Talking-up Scotland is surging. We’re already, for the first six months of 2026, at more than one third more visitors and, crucially, one third more of our fully-researched reports posted, rebutting inaccuracy and revealing hidden truths, at a level (6 per day on average) and in the range of issues covered, way ahead, on this evidence, of any other comparable site in Scotland.

We’ll have another crowdfunder in September. I hope you can support it.

Recent [Just one week] examples of our work:

NHS England authorities paid £33 per patient to remove thousands of them from the lists, many still in great need
Scotland has only half the TB rate due to lower poverty, more affordable housing and better GP access
The real news – The SNP era sees massive increases in attainment by looked after children with three times as many passing at National 5 and eight times as many at Higher
Children’s mental health referrals and waiting times soar in England to three and four times the levels in Scotland as child poverty, youth violence, youth unemployment and domestic violence fall steadily here
Scotland’s ambulances between 2 and 3 tines faster thousands of times but Daily Record finds one case to report
Prison deaths fall by 20% but BBC Scotland headline that they ‘obtained previously unseen footage of a man who died’ in 2015
In the whole world only Norway has a murder rate just lower than Scotland after 19 years of evidence-based and joined up policy initiatives back by funding from a government that listens to professional and academic opinion
A one-year increase is pounced on by the media but overall crime in Scotland has been flat for ten years after almost halving in the SNP era and who knew – drug possession down 27%, car theft down 60%, vandalism down 31%, burglary down 57% and prostitution down 74%!!???
Multiple academic research studies suggest sexual crimes in Scotland are far less common than in 1971 and half the current level in England & Wales so BBC Scotland report today is tasteless, uneducated, dishonest and frankly wrong
‘Woman dies after being hit by HGV in Glasgow’ but pedestrian deaths fall by a third in one year and are halved in the SNP era
A reminder of NHS Scotland’s target-busting 95% drug and alcohol treatment in three weeks or less is required today
After 20 years of centre-left government protecting services and the poorest crime in Scotland is everywhere lower than in rUK
Reconviction Rates in Scotland fall to tiny percentage per head of those in England and Wales due to twice as many ‘probation officers’
Scotland in top ten for foreign direct investment out of more than one thousand European ‘regions’, first per head in UK and well ahead of Burnhamland

The above are just since one week ago!

  1. Tremendous site! Essential antidote to the constant lying of the MSM and bitter unionism.

    I hope our Scottish MSPs and MPs are reading and digesting every day.
