Sometimes we spend too much time seeking something that appears to be hidden but in fact, is easy to see.

Yes, we can look too hard!

Hidden in Plain Sight

Amanda Caleb, PhD, MPH

The idiom “hidden in plain sight” is thought to have originated in Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Purloined Letter” (1844). In the short story, the Paris police attempt to recover a letter stolen from the queen by a political rival Minister D__. When their investigation stalls, they turn to detective C. Auguste Dupin, who finds the letter on the mantlepiece of Minister D__’s home and not in some obscure or remote location. This story reveals the limits of human perception in failing to see the obvious and the importance of observation. To be “hidden in plain sight” can be both a deliberate act by the hidden/hider (such as Minister D__ leaving the letter on the mantlepiece) or a failure to not just look but to see.

We just need to open our eyes and look around us, look around Scotland and see what is happening and understand why!

This is not just some isolated plan happening within Scotland, no it is part of a much larger program, schemed in Westminster and beyond.

We lose good agricultural land at our peril and we won’t get it back! It is not by coincidence that Labour are including farms in their inheritance tax ploy.

Break down the farms and the land loses value!

Join the dots and we see the plans……hidden in plain sight!

Good planning is essential at every stage, at the moment we are focused on 2026, but what happens if the Budget falls in December? We could be looking at an election in Spring 2025! Are we ready?

Individual Parties may be, but are we united yet? This election can not and is not going to be a normal one. If it is not a Pleblicite then our chance for real change has gone. A few extra seats in Holyrood by any new Party will not bring about the change so urgently required.

To stop the rot and the sale of Scotland something radical needs to happen NOW!

….. and the only place of unity on the move is Liberation.

We must unite now around a slogan that shows Scotland’s intent.

Our intent will not be hidden, all will see, even Westminster that we are deadly serious and will not be stopped.

Join Liberation today and show your intent!
