We may not have come to the place of using our physical fists, but there’s still a lot of verbal fisty cuffs going on, on social media!

It is time for Leaders to step up and lead. Some want Unity but only on their terms, they cry democracy but stifle it at every turn.

If we cannot get to the place where country comes before party over the next few months, then we will fail once again in our quest for Independence. Many things are fracturing our society just now, but the cause of independence amongst independence supporters should not be one of them.

Many want Unity, but many are still wary of it, and we will never understand their concerns unless we are prepared to listen to them.

Listening is very often more important than speaking. Understanding where others are coming from can teach us so much.

Learn to listen!

Every would be candidate out there needs to listen, not come out all guns blazing saying ‘this is what I think’.

Liberate Scotland, have listened and having listened they have responded. They get it.

They got what Unity means and did the impossible.

I don’t know what their initial strategy was, but if it was anything remotely like the above, it has worked.

Now, it’s up to us, we fly or we fall.

We have a choice, we either roll up our sleeves or we dig in! Remember a rut is just a shallow grave!

I refuse to be the person who wakes up the day after the election, only to say…….I wish I…….

We cannot change what we did or didn’t do 14 years ago or even yesterday. History only repeats itself when we fail to learn the lesson.

How many times does Westminster have to slam the door in our faces before we learn that they mean what they say, and say what they mean?

The answer is No……just get it.

However, following comments on X last night, let me say this: The ISP has learned from history. Therefore, they will not stand aside for anyone at this election but will happily work with others to reach the goal.

We must learn to be smarter. For the record, I am not against UDI if that’s what it takes….the caveat for me is the timing. It makes sense to wait and bring the International community along with us. By successfully going the Decolonisation route this would, I believe happen.

We are an island that needs the world for Trade and many other things. Kosovo made a mistake, they have the backing of some countries, but not all. We must learn from their mistakes.

But none of these things can happen until we change our thinking, now!

We can’t wait until the UN makes its ruling, we must be running in tandem with it now.

2026 is more important than you ever imagined. The Independence clock is ticking now, it doesn’t start after the election……there can be no ‘wait and see what happens’!

Wait…..and we fail, there will be no ‘catch-up’ phase.

The game of politics is radical not reactionary.

The creation of Liberate Scotland was a radical move, one that many laughed at, well they are not laughing now. 21 Candidates and counting and everyone, a radical!

If you feel you are a ‘radical’ then this is the place for you. You can lend them your support and vote.

Since 2014, Westminster have made sure that we continued to look the wrong way. And Holyrood have been complicit in the deception.

But thanks to Salvo our heads have turned. Turned to a path that was always there. It is clear and it is legal and we owe it to Scotland to walk it.

Nothing is guaranteed in Politics, Westminster will do everything within its power to stop this initiative. But once it crosses a certain point their efforts will die a slow death.

Because the Law is the Law and they signed up to it.

Salvo/Liberation are still doing the groundwork; the case still has many hurdles to jump, but jump them we will. In the meantime, we need to get our act together. Party politics can not be the priority. The we means all of us working together.

Liberate Scotland is not part of the UN campaign but was created to support it and prepare the political groundwork in Holyrood. If politicians won’t do it, then we the People must.

My personal feeling is, that after the October conferences in Scotland, we will see a sea change within some parties. Whether it be splits or takeovers I know not, but things are changing and members are getting restless.

I know that some groups and parties are very territorial and I feel sometimes we are our own worst enemy. By working together we could achieve so much

My plea is that we become less possessive and more progressive.

If we are serious about Independence then everybody and every party must use all the tools in the box, and add if possible.

The one thing we cannot do is give up after trying only one tool or keep using the one that doesn’t fit. You wouldn’t use the same spanner to tighten a Hex bolt as you would a square head bolt!

The Referendum tool does not, and will not work, no matter which ‘screwhead’ holds Westminster together.

To give up after your preferred tool or way fails, is a dereliction of duty and childish.

Constitutional laws are above my head, so I leave that to the experts. But now and then I come across wee nuggets and I’m left with a question.

This is one…..

……are you not?

We need Scottish politicians who have a real heart for Scotland and some guts, I do not believe career politicians have that heart. But I believe we can find it within the Sovereign People. Listen to Flower of Scotland before a rugby match and you will feel it.

And it is the same kind of people, who can sing those words with heart who have come together to create a new political concept in Scotland.

Liberate Scotland has Scotland at its heart.

……and it’s growing apace.

When people start listening to one another, things start to happen. Because listening shows respect and it shows they care.

Over the next few months LS candidates will be popping up on the streets in various towns around Scotland. This was one in Bathgate yesterday.

Ordinary people with a heart and passion for Scotland are having conversations with Scotlands people. If you see them, join the conversation…..believe me, it’s a different one from the norm!!

Scotland has a ‘Dream’, we constantly imagine living in a free Independent country. We have watched other countries make their dreams come true.

Now it’s our time!

It’s time to turn the Dream into reality.

Remember, Scotlands dream is Westminsters nightmare.

Many laugh and say it can’t be achieved without Westminsters consent, and as we know that will never be given. Some even think that if we ask often enough, they will bow to pressure……now that does take some imagination!!

No more, kicking the ball down the field, no more ‘own goals’. No more expensive trips to the Supreme Court to ask the wrong question!

There is a path, a path that Devolutionists don’t want us to take.

Tough!

Salvo/Liberation have opened up a path and thousands of us are walking it. The groundswell has started, and there’s no going back.

So, how do we turn this route into a vote for Independence?

Well, here’s an idea that has taken off. A group of people who believe that when parties lay down their swords and work together……miracles can happen.

Well done to the three parties who responded to the call for Unity.

This group are not here for comfort, they are here to confront.

To confront the ideology of continued Devolution and put Independence first and last once again.

So important is this to LS, that they have no other policies!

The politicking will come later, with each party involved having its own policies. These can be found on their websites. eg. [isp.scot]

A one-line Maifesto! Not a lot to get your head around then. If Independence is your first priority then LS is the place to put your X.

I’ve said previously that someone somewhere would no doubt add up the YES votes, so it was good to see the rebels within the SNP thinking the same.

It is becoming apparent that there are many within other parties thinking along the same lines, surely then it makes sense to hitch up to LS and make it a serious cohesive movement?

It has to be the People who take the lead, country before party. Your vote is yours, no-one has the right to demand it.

We complain about the 2 party system and how undemocratic they are, yet we remain loyal to our own parties which play the same game.

Politics must change, from governments to parties. The present system, from top to bottom does not serve its people well.

With a clean sheet, we can create our own vision. Some parties have already drawn up their individual visions, but the good thing is….you will have a choice.

Direct Democracy, [my preference] does not impose anything on anyone!

Be there for Scotland….. be there for yourself!

If Scotland cannot produce politicians who put service before being served, then we are sunk!

2026 must be the year we change the perception of politics, and I know just the place to start.

Gone are the days when politicians come with titles and plums in their mouths.

You wouldn’t ask a doctor to fix your car so why are we expecting millionaires to fix poverty when they are usually the cause of it through ownership of lands and businesses?

Trickle-down wealth does not work, because it never trickles down and was never meant to. It was just a sound bite, like Trump’s MAGA…..the only bank account gaining anything is his!

Like it or not, the class system in this country is still very much alive.

We have an opportunity in Scotland to bring about real equality. It’s time to bring the ‘Sma folk’ back. The grafters not the grifters.

People who know what hard work means, people who have experienced real life, not been fed with a silver spoon.

People who have earned their reputation, not acquired it through position or money.

Liberate Scotland has been created by such people and you can trust them!

They will bring back Trust in politics.

I am not into ‘spin’ so I say how I find, nor do I trust people easily….again, I judge as I find!

The Candidates standing in Liberate Scotland do not seek fame or money but they do seek Independence. And it’s only because there is a lack of movement towards it, that they have stepped up.

Somebody has to…..will it be you?

Will you join Liberate Scotland and help sink the ‘gravy boat’?

When it comes to getting your voice heard, numbers count.

Westminster may choose not to hear, but the international communities are watching and listening to everything that is going on.

The Salvo UN case has brought Scotland into view, and ears have pricked up. And it’s marching on at pace in spite of all the doubters.

The result of next years election may not stand legally as any kind of referendum, but people will be watching the numbers carefully, and the Yes votes will be added together and noted by someone!

Liberate Scotland has been created to fill a void for those who feel their vote might otherwise be wasted.

The one thing we cannot do next year is waste votes.

Encourage people to register to vote!

One day soon, the jigsaw will come together, but we must all play our part in making it so.

The only negatives are the ones in our heads. A little bit of self-belief goes a long way!

Liberate Scotland believes in Scotland and its People, and that feeling is catching on. It’s good to feel good about your own country.

We are now in a Parliamentary Election year for Scotland, or as I would put it…..the year of lies and false promises. We may even receive some token gifts from Westminster. Keep your eyes firmly fixed on the prize—independence. Remember, our Dream is Westminsters nightmare.

I have a feeling that as we approach the Election, hustings will be carefully choreographed but they will still be the places we can go and make our voices heard….one way or another!

Those of us involved in Liberate Scotland need to be seen and we need to be vocal. Once again we must raise our voice for Scotland.

I say ‘we’ because as long as we remain silent, we are complicit.

In this upcoming election year, we must kick Labour into the long grass in Scotland. They do not represent who we are in Scotland.

As Westminster sinks lower by the day, Scotland must raise its game. We must change this corrupt system.

We cannot just go on complaining and moaning, we are responsible for our own future.

It’s time to get serious…..really serious!

Change is not about tinkering around the edges, it’s about a 360-degree turn.

Anything less is a complete waste of time.

Braveheart captured the nation, where are those bravehearts today?

They are here……

This is where the groundswell starts…..and it starts with Unity!

With Unity, we will fly not fall. A people all marching forward with one purpose.

We are about to enter an Election year, by this time next year hopefully we will be walking a different path with some serious-minded independence-minded people in Holyrood. But ultimately it will be up to the Sovereign People to make that happen.

Liberate Scotland has created a vehicle for it to happen, the void has been filled, now its up to you!

Is it going to be 👍

I have been away this weekend, reuniting with my family and the place I grew up in, Canonbie, Dumfrieshire. Most of my family drove up from the Norfolk/Suffolk area, so their perception of Scottish politics is miles away from mine…..theirs being all for King and country [UK] and Scotland couldn’t afford to go alone!!!

So, apart from the odd comment and to create an atmosphere of harmony, no one mentioned politics😂😂

But I did listen to others around me, or as I put it, ‘earwigging’😂, and realised that the Borderlands was still the place where the Lie lives on!

My relatives, yes I understood where they were getting their lies from, but the locals….? That is going to be quite a battleground for all the Independence parties.

The ‘Reavers’ are no more, and no way would they countenance a ‘hard border’. How does one break through that?

They say…..

But I would add….only if you want it to!

The choice is always ours. Those in Liberate Scotland have made their choice. The knowledge received has empowered them to take action, in other words, do something about the situation Scotland finds itself.

That something is to prepare to action an event when the UN declare our status. For that we need bodies in Holyrood.

Because, if the only other plan is to ‘insist’ this time round, we might aswell blow with the wind!!

There is one word for this, and that is, pathetic!

Liberate Scotland, along with the Sovereign People will do what our politicians are scared to do…….take not wait!

Lies will no longer live in Scotland!

I read an article yesterday about AS still being in Nicolas’ head, but here’s the thing, she has now very cunningly got into ours! My SM has been full of her name for days now. Publicity is publicity good or bad and she doesn’t care which it is because she has achieved her objective…..to get everyone talking about her and her book.

The best thing we could have done was ignore it!

The problem for small parties is that they don’t get any publicity, not just because they are small, as many think, but because they are shut down deliberately and treated like ‘the black sheep’. But as we know, it is very often the black sheep of the family who tells the truth!

Truth has become a great divider in this country, and when I talk about Truth I don’t mean opinion. I mean something that can be backed up by hard facts.

These are undeniable facts and it’s happening now!!

We cannot control the outcome of this initiative but it’s the only one running. And to have got this far is a miracle in itself.

Liberate Scotland supports this route and was created to create the event required to go along with it. Next years Holyrood Election has never been so important.

Once again, the People of Scotland must speak with one voice, this time, with no interference!

Unity only happens when we make it so. Every Candidate standing under LS is 100% committed to Scotland.

3 Parties speaking with one voice. Such is their determination to get the job done!

10 years have been wasted, let’s not waste another day.

We have a decision to make, the more we delay the more of Scotland we lose.
