So, according to Westminster, if you steal something then pass a Law saying it can’t be removed from Britain, it’s yours for ever!!

Sound familiar?

Scotland?

When will Scots wake up, our land along with all our other assets have been stolen from us and they ain’t for giving them back…….so it is incumbent upon us all, to take them back!

……and we haven’t got much time!

So, how do we engage with the disheartened?

They say the “proof is in the pudding”

Well, we have the proof, but we don’t seem to have the professionalism to get the message across, so perhaps we need to invest in more equipment and then engage different audiences.

Can we harness that power that was within the Yes movement, especially with the younger generation? The ones we have lost because they became weary of continually being marched up to the top of the hill, only to be marched down again and again!

We have lost that generation!….. let’s not lose this one!

The situation in Gaza has proved that civic engagement is on the up, not through our Politicians but through People Power. It’s almost as if the lack of Political Leadership on this issue has brought people out onto the streets.

Sara was right on Saturday when she said we need to get students on board, if history is about action then there is no better group to engage with. They are already angry about Gaza so we need to harness that anger whilst their ‘dander’ is up!!!

No politics, just good old-fashioned words like, theft, stolen, raped, and pillaged whilst showing our own anger.

We all have our gifts to bring to the table, there was a time in my life when public speaking was very much to the fore, it’s not my voice that prohibits me now…… it’s my memory!!!

But I can encourage others to step up. With over 7000 members we must have some hidden talent to cover all our bases!

Do it for Scotland, do it for your grandchildren!

Yesterday’s brief mention of the imminent closure of the Grangemouth Refinery deserves a closer look because it says a lot more than folks think.

The loss of jobs and the economy in that area is indeed very serious but let us be under no illusion this is just the beginning of the outward show of how Westminster, and yes it’s Unionist arm Holyrood has total control over us.

…..and not one MP of any Scottish Party is using the COR to stop anything, as Willie McRae did!……therefore we the People must!

What is happening at Grangemouth is more that just a company making a decision on viability, it’s Political and tied up with Freeports.

Our FM is on Clyde Radio this morning giving his reaction to the news!

“Reaction”?

Reacting is something you do to something that comes as a surprise!! This has been no surprise to him, by their own admission they have been working with Ineos regarding jobs!

He is also trying to make it about Transition jobs, this is not about transitioning from oil to greener energy, it’s about getting rid of the only refinery where as an independent country we can refine our own oil , making us totally dependent on England!

People in the Grangemouth area are waking up to the reality of being controlled by Unionist parties, when are the rest of the country going to catch up?

Join the People’s Movement NOW!

Seemingly, Politicians don’t lie……..they ‘Misspeak’!

I wonder how that word would stand up in a court of Law in a Libel case?

‘Misspeak’ is a get-out-of-jail word, used whenever they get caught out lying, a cowardly word used by those with no integrity. A word that should be banned in a future Scotland.

Truth matters more now than it ever did, but we are having to dig deep to find it!

Our English masters have gone to great lengths to hide Scotland’s historical and political truth. Law after Law has been passed to bury it……but find it we [Salvo] have and it’s explosive!!

But my gut tells me this is going to get messy!

Why?

Because Westminster has no qualms about defying International Law when it comes to carrying out its own agenda, and allowing Scotland to walk away is very much not on its agenda.

I have said this before and I will say it again, Scotland will have to take its Freedom because a Leopard never changes its spots! ……and this particular Leopard can’t afford to let us go.

…….at least not until they have taken all.

However, it seems our English Politicians are not the only ones who are less than honest, today we hear that the oil refinery at Grangemouth will stop production in a couple of years and our own MSPs have been working on this for months……they knew about it and kept it quiet no doubt because it was all part of the master plan…..Freeports!

Oh, what a tangled web they weave!

Wake up folks, the SNP have taken you for mugs and have their dirty fingers in all the pies!

Join Liberation.scot now and stop this!

Sometimes the sheer hypocrisy of Governments is breathtaking.

War is one example, the British government is bending over backwards to support the war in Gazza but says nothing about the war in Yemen which has been going on for years and killed a lot more women and children!

Politics trumps humanity in nearly every situation. The question asked is, ‘What can we gain from this, instead of what lives will be lost’?

As the COVID-19 inquiry progresses we are finding out that when it comes to who lives and who dies similar policies were considered.

This was a war against a virus but as in all wars the cost was counted in money not lives, but even this was divided into cost and profit! We the taxpayers are paying not just for the normal costs of the epidemic but also for the huge profits made through dodgy [illegal] deals.

There are huge profits to be made from all wars, lives are just collateral damage!

As we look forward to a future Scotland, are we going to take these double standards with us or are we prepared to do something different?

Will life matter?

We have to trust those writing our updated Constitution that they will.

Personally, knowing some of the people doing this, I believe it will.

People matter, every life matters and we need future Politicians who will ensure humanity is at the forefront of every decision made.

To be radical sometimes you have to say No before you can get to the Yes!

To restore Scotland’s place in a real Democracy radical steps will have to be taken.

To be a radical person means : a person who advocates fundamental political, economic, and social reforms by direct and often uncompromising methods!

In short, continuity won’t cut it!

Apparently being a radical person means your ‘cool’!!!

Did you know that the opposite of being Radical is to be Conservative!……now we can’t have that can we?😂😂

We all know by now that an Independent Scotland is not going to fall into our laps, so we have to make it happen even though it looks like Westminster is prepared to dump International Law to pursue its Policies.

That matters not to us because all we need to reach our objectives is to get International recognition.

Yes things could get a tad uncomfortable for a while as Westminster throws its toys out of the pram but that is the point where we and Scotland can grow into a Nation.

Nothing worth having comes free.

Therefore one of the first steps we must take is to stop sending MPs down to Westminster to be ignored and laughed at. Abstention means to be absent! It sends a clear message saying we will no longer play your game, because that is exactly what we are seen as down there……a joke…a game to play!

So let’s dare to be different!

Let’s light some fires……metaphorically of course!

Our comfort zones are our safe places, stress free. The place where nothing much happens, including growth!

In the same sense SCOTLAND continues to settle for being in a comfort zone of sorts because we are Scotland.

Scotlands growth is being stunted because we are allowing Westminster to asset strip it, both on land and sea.

As long as we as individuals remain in our comfort zones nothing will change in Scotland. The opportunity to move forward has been offered to us. Change for us and Scotland will only begin when we take that one step out of our comfort zone.

We have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

We need to switch that mental light on, the one that makes others take notice! ……draw people in with our enthusiasm in a world that offers little or nothing just now.

People need to see a beacon of hope!

“Your vote, your voice”………really?

If this was true there would indeed be true Democracy, but it’s not!

It’s more like ‘vote for us then be quiet’!

Last night a ‘Lord’ was bemoaning the fact that constituents couldn’t get into Parliament to see their MPs because of the protesters outside, he also added he and others couldn’t get out……I liked that bit!!!

It appears the voices of the masses account for nothing, we are allowed to speak once via the Ballot Box and that’s the sum total of our input! That’s what they call Democracy!

On the whole, the public attitude to Politics is……”I’ve voted so I’ve done my bit”, then if we don’t like what happens we vote for someone else in 5 years’ time. But 5 years is a long time, a lot can happen. Manifestos are brushed aside and replaced by add-hoc policies that fill the boots of the rich at the expense of the rest of us. Billions were paid out to firms during Covid 19……the pop-up companies of the wealthy with no due diligence. Yes Covid 19 was an unusual event but not giving due diligence is becoming a regular event!

Who fills the empty pot………we do!

There will be a GE next year, are we just going to press the ‘repeat’ button? Or have we the guts to press the ‘stop’ button?

When it comes to stopping Freeports/Ezs we can do that now. Lookup freeports@salvo.scot.

This reading comes with a health warning!

https://liberation.scot/

Liberation.scot is a place where your voice will count now, no need to wait for a GE where it won’t count!

There are two kinds of Abstention, one where you sit on the fence and the other where you are making a bold statement.

Tonight in Westminster about 200+ sat on the fence, scared to rock the boat! We also saw the bold ones, prepared to stand on their principles knowing they would be sacked.

The vote tonight would never have brought about a cease-fire but it would have made a ‘bold’ statement. I have no doubt the thousands gathering outside will express their disappointment one way or another. The ‘Honourable members within the House forget they serve us, not the other way around.

It is occasions like this that show how much our present system needs to change, we can’t influence Westminster unless we use the other kind of Abstention, the bold one that says we will no longer come down to London to play your games. If it worked for Ireland it can work for us!

Continuing to lock ourselves into the Westminster system will not work, it never has and it never will. We don’t have enough clout.

So why are we wasting precious time?

Why do we continue to vote and pay for Scottish MPs and MSPs who are caught up in a catch-22 situation?

The system is rigged against us and only we can change it. Too many Yessers are still sitting on the fence when it comes to the HOW of Independence.

There is a way, but perceived Party loyalties or loyalty to a person stand in the way.

What about loyalty to Scotland?

Gaining Independence is not a game or just a badge to wear, it demands we do something and we can start here……..

Today we have witnessed Tory Re-cycling at its best. Bereft of talent amongst their own MPs they dig up a dinosaur from the past and give him a Peerage to boot!

This particular dinosaur is responsible for about 90% of our current woes…….well done Prime Minister you have hit the jackpot of utter stupidity!

……and he is unanswerable to our Elected Members!!

Hundreds of independence-minded people have taken to Social Media today either expressing their disbelief or horror. We need these people to now grasp the Thistle, join Salvo and Liberation.scot and take matters back into our own hands.

Nothing less will do!

When is the ‘penny’ going to drop ?

The Ballot Box, when it comes to Scotland separating from England, is not going to work! We can seek, crawl, stamp our feet for eternity with no avail. England can not afford to let its cash cow roam off free!

Every First Minister becomes a Privy Counsellor and remains so for life unless they resign. Therefore the Oath they take remains in situ. How can a person have a foot in both camps yet be single minded enough to make demands for Independence? They can’t, it’s a catch-22 situation!

AS did manage to persuade Cameron to give us that Referendum in 2014, but Scotland had no say in how it would be held and no control over the count……I will say no more!!

You can be sure of one thing, the offer will never be repeated!

So, let’s stop pretending, that the Ballot Box is the answer to all our dreams.

The world has changed, and greed rules, so it’s time to take a stand, now, not next year or the one after……NOW!

Use the tools we have!

Today’s papers as usual are making sure we are fed with the Tory government propaganda and not the chaos and thuggery they have created.

Which is…….

Truth and decency have well and truly vanished in this so-called United Kingdom and it is only because we have social media that we see the dark side of Politics.

Here in Scotland it is no different.

Take for instance Freeports, there may be no physical violence but Scotland and our land are being violated on a grand scale.

Sold as economic regeneration when the truth is the opposite. Taxes for the consortiums with nothing for the Local Councils which in turn will affect all the services in those huge areas! I say huge areas because don’t be fooled by the word Freeport. Ports themselves make up only a small % of what comes under the jurisdiction of these consortiums.

So, where is the press, and for that matter where are all our representatives when it comes to talking about all this? Silence prevails!

We are just meant to sit back and take it, trust they know best!!! Well, when it comes to Politicians…….no thanks! And it’s not just present Holyrood Politicians who are out to deceive us, go back a little further to when this all started with EZs [Economic Zones]

Scotland was sold a ‘pup’ only the ‘pup’ has never grown up!

So, where are the real voices of Scotland? The Ballot box won’t fix this, only we can.

How, you may ask?

Spreading the truth and by joining a movement that is using every legal tool it can to hold our Politicians and both Governments to account. Something which no political opposition party is doing!
