When the word ‘Equality’ is used today it’s usually in connection with diversity and inclusion.

But me being me also thinks about equality within Politics! The problem with 99.9% of Politicians is they think themselves to be above the people who actually voted them in.

Maybe that’s another reason why I am so drawn to the ethos of the Claim of Right and the building bricks that underpin it.

All men and women are equal no matter what status they hold and all are answerable to one another.

Yesterday I put a picture up about next Saturday inviting everyone to come to Holyrood to ‘meet the Salvo team’. David Llewellyn quite rightly added, we are all the Salvo team! …… he is right, we are and we should be proud of it.

Our present Political system is over-weighted as is every department within the government. Take the NHS, including the SNHS, it’s overloaded with expensive quangos and managers taking cash away from front-line services.

Other Political models throughout Europe are smaller and more efficient. This is because the ordinary people who form the building blocks have more power than those few at the top! Good models for a future Independent Scotland.

On Saturday a new political discourse will start. Our Politicians may try to ignore us but we ain’t going anywhere. The Law is the Law and we will stand on it no matter what!
