Imagine a country where every Political Party and Organisation came together and pooled their policies and ideas for the benefit of everyone!
No more Party lines just brainstorming the best from the best! All Parties, yes all including the SNP! From the largest to the smallest. That is true unity.
No more egos, just everyone genuinely working together for the best outcome for the country they love!
For me, that is what the Claim of Right is all about. Not just bits of it…..the whole bang shoot!
Until we get away from this ‘Im the best’ or ‘we are the best’ attitude we will fall at every step. The Claim of Right moves us away from that concept and brings us to a sense of community, where we can draw from collective resources. All on a level playing field.
It should be easy if there was a bit more humility around and a little less ‘I want to be top dog’!
Until this happens though we will have to work with what we have, which is an ever growing bank of lovely people and bring more people into thinking Claim of Right.
As we in Salvo continue on our journey built on our history I thought I would share a wee conversation I had with my grandson last night. We were talking about history lessons in school. Now although he has come to live up here and says he will never go back to England😂 he was educated in Carlisle.
I asked him what history he was taught at school, and his answer rather shocked me. Their history lessons were about WW1 & WW2 that’s it…….apart from…..you will never guess…Henry V111!
No Border Reivers, no Hadrians wall which runs through Carlisle and no history about Carlisle Castle!!!!
How odd, and why Henry V111, out of all the Kings and Queenslike William, Richardor Elizabeth 1?
Now I can be a bit of a conspiracy freak at times😂😂, so the Q of why Henry V111 became, why not? Of all the Kings and Queens, it is Henry V111 and his ancient Laws that keep popping up in today’s Politics. The Tories dragged his Laws up from the grave to give standing to the Internal Market Act.
Politics has always as we know played a part in what history we are taught and what was omitted, so why not put his name into the minds of English children?
Am I imagining this ?
Back to the present! Yesterday’s March in Ayr gave the Stirling Directive a good airing! With many apparently signing up to Liberation. scot. The message is spreading like wildfire and people are eager for something to happen other than empty promises.
As I said yesterday we are the final arbiters when it comes to building a new Scotland and its Political framework. The fear of Salvo’s work was plain to see on Twitter last night 😂. You know you are doing something right when the attacks get personal.
It may be wet and dreek outside but there’s a glow inside us!
Having started a new conversation, who will have the final say, who will settle the question about Scotlands future.
Legally it will probably some Judges in the Eoropean Courts but ultimately it will be us The Sovereign People of Scotland!
Today the People March again, this time in Ayr and looking at the list of speakers, the conversation about the Stirling Directive is taking centre stage. How far we have come in just one week!
The conversation has changed from ‘we want’ to ‘we will’!
From speaking the Truth we will gain the Power!
But how in practice do we create that power? It won’t just happen. Marching together with a common aim builds up comradery, a sense of friendship.
The task is huge, I know, but by bringing that sense of friendship into the Hubs we can build something big that will lead to success…….and yes, we can have fun doing it! As someone said to me the other week, it’s about changing our frame of mind from ‘can we’ to ‘we can’!
We create that Positivity by focusing on our positive vision, a vision of what Scotland can and will be and sharing it.
Unionists hate it when we feel positive, look what happened this week, the 🧌 came out in force, even a Lord woke up from his sleep and declared Scotland was no longer a country😂😂. When that happens you know your on the winning side!
I call myself a ‘keyboard warrior’, Hubs I can go to, Marches not so much……my bones object! We can all do something! and have fun at the same time and that is something we all need in these dire times.
Humzas has been busy writing an awful lot of ‘Papers’ lately without even engaging with us! Even though everyone will have an impact on our lives. But the elephant is still in the room, the one called Independence!
No word of the when let alone how!
Apparently, we are even going back into the EU, and I mean fully back in, not even a thought about EFTA. A lot has changed since we left…..but there you have it, the boss has spoken. The fag packet wins!
This is a perfect example of why I hate this most undemocratic Democracy. Once you tick the box thats it, all your so-called Rights are distinguished…..you have now become ‘null & void’!
Iain Lawson’s blog on Popular Sovereignty explains all this superbly.
In a Scotland built on The Claim of Right, Humza’s fag packet would be redundant!
No Leader would be able to implement his own plan, let alone publish it without the agreement of usThe Sovereign People.
Neither would He/She, [sorry those are the only two pronouns I will ever use!]ever be able to spend our monies on any pet projects!
A huge wall of silence has been built to keep the Stirling Directive out of the public domain. Even so called Independence Parties, a part from one, have run to the hills because The Claim of Right is such a ‘hot potato’!
The Fear of opening this can of worms is so great it, it must be suppressed at all costs. Which in turn means, Salvo have got it right!
If Salvo we’re not right and we were all being labelled as cranks we would be headline fodder!!
But this wall will fall and truth will prevail.Every means available to us must be used whether it be the written word or the spoken word.
The root of this silence is fear, for some, it will be the fear of change but for most, it will be the fear of losing Power or the Power they seek!
Now is not the time to squabble over the fine print, that’s what political campaigns are for, now we must unite and stand on the headline!
And that headline is, The Claim of Right, the Legal Route to Scotland’s Freedom!
Saturday’s Salvo has rocked the Establishment, their silence is deafening!
The social media Trolls 🧌 crawled out from under their rocks in great numbers, proof once again of the threat we are to their cosey lifestyle that has threatened our very existence.
We are all experiencing the reality of living within this perfect storm, it’s not a shower, it’s not a squall, it’s a storm! For many, it feels like a bloody hurricane as they desperately fight against all odds to just keep on living.
The custodians of our money think the answer is just to keep on borrowing as if there is no tomorrow, no day of reckoning. But it’s not those people at the top who will in the end have to experience even more hardship when the day of reckoning comes, no, it’s us!……and it will come!
There is no day of reckoning for them, no re-call, just seats in the HOL, giving them £350+ a dayuntil they pop off! Did you know there are hundreds of books written about how to spend other people’s money and get rich? …..I bet they are all in the House of Commons Library!
Holyrood is no better, they squander what little the Barnett Formula allows us on picking fights with Westminster, building useless Ferries, supporting organizations like Stonewall. They are also good at ferreting monies away to support their pet projects…..yet even they seem to crash and burn at some point!The next one coming down the line is ‘Gas Boilers’The brainchild of he who never goes to Cabinet meetings, just sits in his office shouting orders at Humza!
I wrote the other day about the Stirling Directive being a gift, a way out, but if they choose to ignore it, again I ask what then?
Even bigger decisions will have to be made, it will cost us, but it will cost them a lot more!They will lose what little trust is left from us The Sovereign People, they will lose their integrity, (if they have any left!) and they will lose their reputation in Europe and beyond.
Why, because they will have failed to deliver the wishes of the People whilst masquerading as a Democratic institution!
The next few months are going to be very interesting, Saturday was just the beginning. Everybody, including our representatives, are going to have to make some decisions.
These decisions will either see us on the road to freedom or keep us on the road to nowhere. We won’t let them do the latter!They are either for us, or they are against us!
Wake up folks, the UK as it is known today is Broke! and that is precisely why Westminster can’t and won’t let Scotland go.
If I were to pick a word that describes the situation in Scotland today it would be ‘deprivation’ That may sound an odd word for what should be one of the richest countries in the world……but it is a fact!
deprivation
/ˌdɛprɪˈveɪʃn/
noun
the damaging lack of material benefits considered to be basic necessities …..
We are asset rich yet so many are deprived of, Housing, food, clothing, and heat and these are just the basics. Psychologicaly this damages us as human beings, leaving a huge % of the population feeling downtrodden, unworthy and utterly defeated, popping pills as if there was no tomorrow.
Is this really what we want?
There is another way, a way out, a Legal route. We know it but we have to break through the wall of apathy and dejection. People can’t see the wood for the trees!
There is light at the end of this tunnel but our Politicians don’t want us to see it. All the promises to end poverty are just words, throwing money we don’t have at the problem is not the answer!
A complete overhaul of our political system is required, one where all the People benefit to the same degree. We have the opportunity to do this but we have to build the WILL!
We must take the very best of the past and make it our future!
It was all there in the 1600s, written down, we just need to make it fit our modern political system without deflecting from the ethos underpinning it.
It’s a huge ask, it’s a huge task, the keyboard warriors are hard at work but we need the personal touch as well. There is a phrase many Counsellors use, it is, “meeting people at their point of need”! That means sitting with people listening to them and offering an alternative.
That ‘alternative’ won’t come immediately but it will break through the wall of dejection and give people purpose.A fight to fight…. and we love a fight!
When Holyrood reconvenes in September at some point they will be presented with a gift from Salvo, (acting on behalf of the People of Scotland). The label on the box will read, “The Stirling Directive”!
They may not see it as a gift, but a gift it is.
Because within this Directive there is a way out! Clearly and succinctly set out. They seek a ‘legal’ frame to pursue Independence, at least that is what they say! Well here it is, it’s been there all the time, sometimes hidden, sometimes not so much!
But the Political will to enact it may be another matter. Will it lie under the ‘to-do’ bundle for months or even years? We can’t and will not allow this to happen.
It would be great if we could find at least one MP or MSP who is genuinely seeking Independence to highlight this Directive at that level. Any suggestions?
Scotland needs to stand on its own feet, it needs to be given the chance to grow into the country it was meant to be!
The only way that is going to happen is if we as individuals grow and embrace change. The choice is simple, we either do or we don’t! If we don’t we will be stuck in this Union forever and will deny our grandchildren the life and opportunities we never had and they deserve.
Somehow we have to bring life into the ‘can’t be bothered, not interested’ crowd! It’s more than just spreading the word about the Lie, it’s how enthusiastic we are in doing it and encouraging them to be part of history. A tall order I know but we have a buzz about us just now and ‘buzzes’ can be very infectious!
…..and probably the best way to interact with the younger generation is to start with our own families! Convince them and the battle is won because they are the generation of Social Media!
My attention today turns towards our mainstream press. We already know Politicians are owned by their Party but what about Journalists?Who owns them?
I remember a time when journalism was seen as an honourable profession. They hunted down the truth, well some of them did. The media as we know it has changed beyond recognition, they no longer report the news but create it.
Freedom to write has been replaced by their masters agendas who usually support one Political Party or another. They have the power to change our minds albeit subliminally! The words they write enter our thoughts, they entice us into a make-believe world which says ‘things will get better…if’
Any story that endangers their cosy agenda is ignored, like Saturday’s event. Out of sight, out of mind, let’s not ruffle any feathers.Or omg this is too hot to handle, which it probably was!
The Truth is very often controversial and causing controversy is a No-No! Westminster couldn’t handle that let alone our Politicians.
Salvo has discovered a Truth, and the shutters have gone up. But they can’t control Social Media..yet!
It is said that Truth is very often the first casualty in war. The People of Scotland have declared war on Lies and demand they be replaced by Truth.
So we can but hope by using hashtags that some Foreign journalists, or ByLine at Associated Press will pick our story up. Britain isn’t as ‘loved up’ by the world as it once was!
We Scots have a problem with lies and the bigger the lies are the angrier we get! If the Party in government or the Party we voted for lies to us, what do we do? We change our allegianceand say ‘no more’!
But what do we do when we discover the Government that rules over us has lied to us for 317yrs, and compounds that lie every day by taking our land and our resources?
And more importantly, what do we do when we find out that we, the Sovereign People of Scotland have the answer and the Power to do something about it? In fact not to do something makes us complicit in the lie.
What took place yesterday is only the start. There are many who believe in an Independent Scotland but after the way we have been governed lately are very reluctant to vote for what they see as more of the same!
A new type of governance is required and there are a number of examples to build upon and I suspect a group might take it on! Change not just in name but in substance.
But all that is in the future, but maybe not in such a distant future!! For now we have to tell the people about the big lie!
The 1st one: and there are many, many more!
The Westminster Government has legitimate authority over its executive arm in Scotland, the Scottish Parliament. It has no such lawful authority over the Scottish People. The Scottish Government, however, has wrongfully deferred to Westminster sovereignty over the expressed will of the People of Scotland [ Excerpt from Stirling Directive]
Time to make Holyrood stand up for itself and for The People of Scotland, is it not?
For more information and to shine a light on all those lies, look up the #StirlingDirectiveor Salvo.scot.
The Claim of Right is alive and well.
Perhaps the biggest lie was that England never intended to honour the Treaty in the first place, instead they hid it away. Out of sight out of mind!
Today the Unionist trolls have been out in force, they are rattled and no amount of mocking can hide that fact. Why else would they bother?
Expose the lie and the people who truly care about thiscountry will respond.
Join the biggest movement of People in Scotlandat this time. The Law, this time is on our side, we just have to exercise it!
