The time clock is ticking, and soon the kind of Democracy we think we have will be gone.

There are many kinds of Democracy but this very British type is anything but Democracy and the sad thing is people don’t know it, because nobody ever questions it.

Ask anyone what Democracy means they would probably say, ‘the right to vote’ to elect our representative in Parliament. But it actually means much more than that.

The word democracy comes from the Greek words “demos”, meaning people, and “Kratos” meaning power; so democracy can be thought of as “power of the people”: a way of governing which depends on the will of the people.

Recognize it?……neither do I.

The problem with British Democracy is it has twisted the word around to mean something very different and the acting out of it is not by the people but by Parliament. Come to think about it Westminster is the last place we see Democracy being played out….its all about whipping MPs into line and bullying!

Your part in this Democracy of ours lasts 1-2 minutes and you only get that chance every 5 years!

The minute you cast your vote you hand all of your democratic rights to another person….and don’t think for one minute they will consider you for another 5 years unless you are extremely lucky. Party Politics will take over from there on, and we have just seen how that works out!

Happy with that?

Things are changing though and these changes are worse than what we have.

Parliamentary Democracy is being replaced by Corporate Democracy and in this Democracy you will have no say whatsoever, not a single vote……unless you are a Shareholder!

Westminster will appoint businessmen to run Authorities that become bankrupt…..the circle of power will then be complete!

We can stop this train of corporate power in its tracks because there is another way, a way that brings us back to the original meaning…..

“Power of the People”!!

In 2026 we will have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to change Scottish Politics forever. This Election will not be about SNP v Labour it MUST be about the Sovereign People of Scotland taking back our Country. Then onward to standing on the world stage as a Political State in our own right. Sitting at the top table as it were!

Direct Democracy will then be at the heart of how Scotland will be run.

How will it work?

Every Candidate be it with a Party or Independently will share a common goal stated on the Ballot Paper…..SOVEREIGNTY and that is where we must all put our X.

This will act as a Plebiscite where we the People vote on one issue. Sovereignty!

Westminster and Holyrood will not recognise the importance of it or the result but the EU Community will and that is where the real power for change lies.

Never think it was Labour who got us Devolution, it was a small group of people from Scotland who went to the ICJ and we are on our way back there with Liberation.

We have a legacy to fulfil, it is now the people‘s time.
