Over the past few years women have learned the power of saying NO, this is a lesson Scotland needs to learn.

No, is a very powerful word but we have been conditioned to see it as something negative, even rude!

Yet that one little word can change so much!

Can anyone remember a time when the present regime in Scotland ever said No to Westminster and actually carried it through? I have heard plenty of threats and words like, ‘Scotland won’t’ but that’s all they were, words!

The No’s became Yes as we quietly appeased our masters. How long have the SNP been playing us, as far back as 2017 maybe? Nicola loved her ‘secret’ meetings, they made her feel powerful and important. Now the people she met are financially backing the Freeports and SEZs!

When it comes to politics I don’t believe in coincidence, I believe in long-term strategies and it has become abundantly clear that for Nicola, Independence was not one of them.

So, who in the end was paying the piper and are they still paying?

We have between now and 2026 [approx 21 months] to learn how to say NO and say it with some authority!

First, we start making it plain to Holyrood that things are about to change for them and not in a good way.

Holyrood as an arm of Westminster will become defunct and maybe even fossilized😅

We will say NO to anything that resembles the English system of Democracy and Yes to all that stands for the Sovereignty of the People and the people’s Democracy.

This change of language must start now, use the power of NO, and let our MSPs know we’ve had enough, they no longer represent our values or our dreams.

If in 2026 all Candidates who believe in Sovereignty stand on Sovereignty, [individuals can do this on the list] or join a Party that will stand on Sovereignty. This could act as a kind of representative [proxy referendum vote and it’s one we must win. Believe me when I say this is Scotland’s last chance saloon!

Westminster won’t recognise it….but others will!! By saying NO to the Holyrood system we are saying YES to Independence!

This road is not new, other new countries have trodden this path before us and won International recognition, there is reason on this earth why we can’t join them.

Salvo/Liberation are paving the way…..join the thousands already on this journey and park politics for a wee while!

By saying NO we set our own boundaries and goals!

We must start saying NO now because sometimes ‘later’ becomes never!
