Scotland’s NHS is held up by international experts as an example to follow. The Scottish Patient Safety Programme recently was praised by a leading Swedish expert, Dr Gustafson, at a Westminster Health Committee. The programme cuts hospital and post-surgical deaths, along with complications such as pressure sores, sepsis, wound infections, and so on. There is much still to do, and Scottish Independence would give us the fiscal powers to do it.
Only #ScottishIndependence will #ProtectScotlandsNHS from Westminster privatisation.

Empty shelves. This is #Brexit.
Scotland has a choice. With #ScottishIndependence, we can rejoin the European Union and get life, and our economy, back to normal.
Kudos to the genius who did this

When #DevoMax is discussed, #Scots must remember the lie we were sold in 2014. The Vow was a con. Only #ScottishIndependence delivers #ForScotland

This is life in #Brexitland. The #InternalMarketBill, pushed through Westminster with no regard for Scotland's views, means our #NHS could be jeopardised by future deals. If the Tories shut Scotland's Parliament down, it's game over. We need #Independence

"GP services for 375,000 patients transferred overnight to US health insurer, Centene Corp.
There was no proper patient consultation or proper public scrutiny. Matt Hancock should halt this stealth privatisation," Jonathan Ashworth MP
Think you know what you know?
Where do you get your information from?
Increasingly corrupt journalists? Conspiracy-loving bloggers?
Who controls the truth?
Cut the strings. Watch #TheGreatHack on Netflix. Think again.

I suggest when folk are exploring their perceptions, they ask themselves this same question from every angle:
"What is the message and if I believe this, who does it benefit, and why?"
As a journalist, I find it useful.
Somewhere in there, the truth is to be found.
