The great misconception!

One of the greatest mistakes we make when go to vote is that we are only giving our Representatives [MPs & MSPs] permission to carry out the things written within their Manifestos. When they go ‘off piste’ and do something completely off the wall, we protest and quite rightly so!

Perhaps though, the problem goes much deeper than that, perhaps we just don’t understand the system.

Do we misconceive the principles behind Elections?

Under English principles, when we vote we hand over Sovereignty to Parliamentarians, MPs!

Now think about that for a moment and what that means for us in Scotland.

In Scotland, the People are Sovereign, so why every 5 years do we say to our new MPs, ‘Here I hand all of my power over to you…..all of it!’ because that’s what we do, they become custodians of our Sovereign Power which is much more than just giving them permission to carry out some Policies! And that means they can do whatever the hell they like!

We have to remember we are living within an English Parliamentry system and under that system Parliament is Sovereign not the People!

No Scottish Party who wants Independence should be standing on those English principles.

It was never meant to be like this but it has become this and it must change!

Politicians who want the same system in Scotland do so that they in turn can retain Power.

Its all about the Power game!

Liberation is about the Sovereignty of the People not Politicians or Parliament.

This is your movement!
