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!
