The Arab Spring lasted from 2010 – 2014, so please be patient.

They start because the people have had enough of the status quo, I think we have reached that benchmark!

If true, Mr Sarwar’s head just got a bit too at the weekend…..a rush of self-importance no doubt, or was it showing off in front of the boss?

Every day he insults Scotland and his pet poodle is worse. No wonder morale in the SNHS is low.

But I suppose this is the kind of Political world we live in these days……I am weary of all this playground stuff, are you not?

If politics is a game I’m not sure I want to play anymore. To be honest, the only thing that gets me up every day is the knowledge that at last we have actual movement through Liberation.

Self-determination is the right of every human being, as it is for every Nation. For many, even on a personal level that dream has never become a reality…..we can change that for so many.

A country with an abundance of resources should have no poverty.

Which one would you say we have?

Remember the old days of White Wash? … which covered a multitude of sins….well Westmister still uses it and buys it by the bucket full.

But as we know, the older it gets the more it reveals!

Archivists and researchers are very adept at stripping back the whitewash and bluster. Our truth, Scotland’s truth has been revealed and cannot be hidden again. What we do with it is up to us from here on.

Perhaps a start would be to insist history teachers teach the truth. What is a history degree if that degree is built on lies? I doubt if there is one history teacher in Scotland qualified to teach Scottish history!

How many modern history books will tell you that The Claim of Rights is still a legal entity?

Truth is important, it tells us who we are and how we got here. Although born across the pond, half of my genes are Scottish.

My ancestors [the Marshalls] are buried in this churchyard in Madderty, Perthshire. Hence my close affinity to Scotland.…. it’s in the blood and no-one can whitewash that fact out.

If the truth is not gripping you then it should, because we are living in exciting times, we are walking down a road never taken before and we have Salvo/Liberation to thank for that, not Politicians.

If Politics bores you then start to look at things from a different viewpoint! The in word for this these days is ‘reframing’

Look at it from the point of view that your heritage and culture have been stolen and replaced by some anglofied notion that you are British which in reality means English!!

Scotlands Spring has arrived, wake up and feel it! It’s been a long time coming so don’t allow them to whitewash it again.

Live the dream.
