Scotland is changing, the days when we followed our parents into certain political parties or faiths is less probable.

Our beliefs are more fluid, they depend more on results than blind loyalty. Whether this is a good or a bad thing I am not sure.

Rome was not built in a day and we are if anything an impatient people born out of years of disappointment.

So far today nearly two and a half million people have signed a Petition demanding another GE, such is the fluidity of today’s politics. In only a short time we have seen nearly every promise made….broken! These were not small promises hidden somewhere in small print in a manifesto, they were headline promises the ones that sucked us into a false sense of security….and people are very angry.

With fluidity comes opportunity and the people see that, but in Scotland, we can do more. We can go further than just having another GE, in 2026 we can change the system altogether.

We can do the unexpected if, and only if we dare to grasp the thistle and make that change happen.

The question is, are we fluid enough? Fluid enough to shake hands with old enemies…I wonder?

There is an old saying, ‘Never say never’!

If we are still saying never, then we remain stuck in a rut, and a rut is just a shallow grave!

And if we are still in that rut….it is already game over!

For some the hurdles seem too high, I get that but the question is how much do you want Independence and what are you prepared to sacrifice to get it?

There is far too much hate around and it will kill the dream unless harnessed and thrown in the right direction.

That direction is towards Westminster and its sub-office Holyrood.

Now is the time to refocus on what really matters……Scotland.
