Decisions, we make them every day sometimes all day! But now and then we are called upon to make big ones. Ones that will affect our lives every day, possibly for the rest of our lives.

The 2026 Scottish Elections will be one of those days not only for individuals but also for Scotland.

Will we move forward or backwards?

This Election will be very different from any other because new possibilities regarding our route to Independence have come to the fore, and they don’t involve Westminster. At least not in the way a S30 does.

S30 is the Scottish government’s A1 route which is closed!…..and no amount of begging is going to open it again. We must change our focus and stop looking back with that wistful look…..it ain’t going to happen!

Accepting reality is the first step to moving forward.

The reality is that there is a different route to Independence, and the Liberate Scotland campaign, which will soon be launched, will show that route. It’s different……but ‘different’ is not wrong! What is wrong, is hanging on to something that doesn’t work and the inability to say ‘We need to look at this differently’!

Think of Scotland as a blank canvas and be creative as you paint it in your mind. The possibilities are endless….why….. Because we have an abundance of assets to work with.

But….I can hear you say, we will have to borrow billions…yes, set up costs will be enormous. There isn’t a country in the world that doesn’t borrow but we at least have the collateral to back those loans up.

At the moment Westminster uses Scottish resources to back up their loans…..and still, they can’t balance the books!!

Our spending priorities will differ greatly to Westminsters, especially around Defence!!

A little bit of creativity and the right people in the right jobs will change Scotland forever.

The Dream is in our grasp, we just have to be brave enough to take the steps required.

In 2026 we can change the Political map…..just believe and do it!!
