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.

It’s the silly season again, when we are told how much we owe!! Not that we spent it, or had any say in it.

Perhaps they should headline their report by saying ‘Once upon a time’.!!!

We are meant to be scared about this, but people are waking up. This is not our debt but Westminsters. They made the spending choices….not us. Our priorities would have been so different.

This then, renders the figures irrelevant! But Westminster by producing these figures hopes that your fear will be greater than our dream.

It never shall be so!

I see the PM has dismissed the petition for a GE. Are we surprised? This is what happens with a ‘Parliamentary Democracy’, and that is why the system must change in an independent Scotland. It is inconsistent with the principle that the people are sovereign.

The level of influence that money is buying has corrupted Parliament, more so in Westminster than in Holyrood. And sadly Westminster still matters.

The mission to change this starts in earnest now.

Liberate Scotland, the party built on unity and unifying the people has but one mission and that is to Liberate Scotland.

…..and they won’t be blindsided by anyone.

If people agree that the system has to change, then it stands to reason that someone needs to start the ball rolling. That is exactly what this group of parties are all about.

ISP. I4I and Sovereignty have rolled up their sleeves, left differences aside and are cracking on regardless of any negativity…..and there’s plenty of that around…..the Unionists are beside themselves!

‘How dare these people do something unconventional’!!

The rustle amongst the grassroots is getting louder by the day. Let your voice be heard.

When it comes to finances, it appears that our Finance Minister up here in Scotland has a habit of losing large sums.

According to the Housing Minister £97.1m has gone missing. Add to that the £33m from the ring–fenced money for farmers, which has also gone missing. There appears to bit jiggery pockery going on.

Now, I am not suggesting anything illegal has happened, but rather pinching from Paul to pay Peter!……so somebody loses out!

But my question is……is this any way to run a country? It suggests panic rather than good governance. Why don’t we have such a thing as an emergency fund for when things do go wrong?

They say there is no money tree, but we know that’s not true…..Scotlands oil is Westminsters money tree!

Scotland is only poor because Westminster makes us so. Why are we begging for crumbs when it could all be ours?

Having finally put the record straight, the taking of our resources now becomes an act of theft.

Why is the Scottish Goverment not dealing with this?

Do they not know how to or are they just too lazy?

Well, there is one group of up-and-coming candidates who know exactly what to do and will not be afraid to do it.

They may not rattle sabres, but they will rattle cages and you will hear their voices. Because they will not sit back meekly in their seats to appease the devolutionists.

If you want Holyrood to waken up, these folk will do it!

Bring on the popcorn!

…..and the good news is, there is room for more to join.

So don’t be surprised that we are coming to take them back….and we will do it by using Westminsters own rules, the Ballot Box!

After that, we stop playing their game.

I don’t know many of the candidates in Liberate Scotland, but the ones I do know are a feisty bunch of people. Not the kind you silence easily, and they are not afraid to speak the truth.

So, expect to see some sparks flying, because the ‘gravy train’ MSPs will hate them.

Liberate Scotland is more interested in ‘outcomes’ than ‘incomes’!!

The more LS candidates we put into Holyrood, the greater the change there will be.

Holyrood was meant to be the People’s Parliament and next year the People will take it back! The revolution starts here.

Never again will we see its own people being locked out whilst trying to deliver a perfectly legal declaration. That day was a dark day for Scotland. The day our own Independence MSPs hid behind locked doors.

“Feart” is a great Scottish word, and it perfectly describes our MSPs that day!

But hasn’t ‘fear’ always been the way of Holyrood? Big on words followed by zero action!

The only thing that speaks in Holyrood is money, as lobbyists get access to power in all parties. The word for it is bribery.

Liberate Scotland is not the only one doing something new, a group of hardy souls are falling out of the sky today on behalf of Salvo. Going to the UN does not come cheap!

Don’t think for one minute that nothing is happening at the grassroots level. What we need now is for it all to come together. Liberate Scotland has started the ball rolling; we need you to keep it going and growing.

Join the journey!

Some people struggle with ‘change’, and the higher you are on the spectrum, the more difficult it is to deal with it.

Anyone living with this problem has to first become aware that they have a problem then accept this is how they are. Self-acceptance is so important.

Having just spent 10 days with such an individual, I know how stressed they can become, even at the changes like having to alter travel plans because of a storm, and how that stress impacts others around them…..much chocolate was eaten!!

Coping methods are important because one thing is for sure, life is full of changes!

We in Scotland have been brainwashed all of our lives into believing something we now know was a lie. And that change is not easy to get our heads around. Because once you know something, you can’t unknow it, and that forces a change.

Something somewhere has to alter (change) within us.

Easier said than done for many.

I think sometimes we can be guilty of overloading people with information, and I know I have felt overwhelmed at times.

One of the advantages of having a party like Liberate Scotand is the fact that it only has a one-line manifesto…..yep….just one line, so not a lot to get our heads around!

It is…

…… and if we give them our vote, they will do the work!!

They have a plan, and at each level we as individuals can decide our involvement through our vote.

Voting is the one thing we must do!

Plan A. Constituency Vote……vote for a candidate who is part of Liberate Scotland but standing under their own party logo!!

Plan B. List vote. Simple, vote for the Liberate Scotland candidate.

This is all you need to do, to bring about the change you want and we need. Then stand back and watch the sparks fly.

The ‘system’ dictates that First Ministers automatically become Privy Counsellors.

Privy Counsellors advise the King/Queen. They are supporters of the monarchy.

How is that compatible with campaigning for Independence? It isn’t, unless, of course, you want the monarchal system to stick around!

Somehow I don’t think this is what the People of Scotland have in mind, because as we know, in Scotland, the People are sovereign.

The one thing you cannot do, when it comes to the Constitution is, have a foot in both camps.

Excuses have defined our government for too long, as have broken promises. Why then should we now believe they have found a way?

The SNP say they are the only ones who can bring about Independence, but don’t explain why they have done nothing for the last 10 years. Or indeed their grand new plan.

Devolution if it was anything, was a trap. All it produced was an executive arm of Westminster with Ministers tied to the Monarchy for life!

Liberate Scotland is aiming higher, by replacing the Monarchy with the Sovereign People of Scotland.

A Scotland that is truly free to set out its rights and responsibilities in an updated Constitution.

We don’t want the 2026 Commonwealth Games.

It’s time to stop their games and start ours!!

If we all stand up together at the same time, like at the 2026 Election, we can do this.

We need to put real independence-minded people’s bums in the seats of Holyrood for a start. People who will rattle cages and cause a stushie!….. and I know a few who will do just that!

https://freekirkytwechar.wordpress.com/2025/05/27/liberate-scotland-candidates/

We need to take our fight to Holyrood before we take it anywhere else!

If you are up for it, this is the place to start.

Principles and Politics are not two words that generally go together these days, but things are changing up here in Scotland.

Creative thinking is still alive and kicking up here. It takes courage to step away from the norm and be unconventional.

Nothing angers the opposition more than doing something different and making it work.

Liberate Scotland is creating a groundbreaking new kind of politician. One that puts the country first.

There is no ‘big money’ behind any of them, they are self- financing and they have principles!

Their advisory committee is the people of Scotland!!

You won’t see this regarding LS!

Give me a politician who has had real-life experiences rather than one who swims in money any day!

You don’t have to be an expert in everything to become a politician, but you do need your feet on the ground.

…..and Liberate Scotland candidates all fit that profile, they can also ‘read a room’!!

We should remember that 65….yes 65 countries have broken away from this so-called United Kingdom, and not one has looked back. Our history is slightly different, but not as we were taught. The truth is now coming to light, but what will we do with that truth?

Liberate Scotland knows what

it is doing. It is making bold moves towards Independence, ones that don’t involve the Union Jack or anyone holding it!

Join them, don’t just be a bystander….get in on the action!

A game full of jokers and we are the the joke. It was always meant to be!

…..and the saddest thing of all is, we have been quite happy to play the game.

The time for playing games is over……any games!

Britain is broken….and broke. Unlike Norway, which poured its oil profits back into the country, ours is being snatched from us along with all our other assets.

Poverty is a choice, especially in an oil-rich country like ours, only when we stop playing their games will things change. People thought it would change by voting in Labour……well that little experiment hasn’t worked out too well has it?

So, it’s time to think again, we do not fail by loosing one game, we fail by not trying again. In any contest we must be open to change, and change we must.

Devolution is not working for us because Westminster can change the rules whenever they like, and they have through the Internal Market Act.

The time has come for us to make our own rules and create a new game called ‘Take Scotland Back’!

We do this by using next year‘s Election as an ‘Event’. One that backs up the Salvo UN initiative.

Yes, we can. Lets just start believing in ourselves once again.

Liberate Scotland was created for such an event…..thousands are getting it…..do you?

There is much speculation as to what is going on within our governing party. It is not my intention to add to it, because frankly, I don’t know…….but something is and I don’t believe in coincidences!

I do however acknowledge that some MSPs are just retiring!

So, does this open up an opportunity for others to stabilise what has become a fractious Yes movement?

If ‘unity’ is the glue, then Liberate Scotland is the provider.

When one looks at the factions within some of the Independence parties, it is a miracle that three parties have managed to do the impossible. They have created a space where they can work together for Scotland and Independence.

The secret?

Focus on what matters.

Independence. Nothing less. Nothing else!

Does this mean that their individual party manifestos have to be in alignment?

Absolutely not!

But what they have done is single out the most important one and made that their ultimate goal.

Politics and Policies will follow and people will be free to choose. If you are really interested now, look up the various parties’ manifestos. But just now, the absolute priority is to get the YES vote over the line.

Time is not on our side, very soon we will be into the 25/26 Scottish Parliamentary year…..Election year!

Scary, but true. We need to stop dreaming and start focusing, because Independence is not going to drop into our laps!

We must make the dream happen! Getting the Yes vote over the line will bolster the UN case, we cannot have one without the other!

This is the vehicle on the move and growing. It is not meant to replace AUOB but run alongside, bringing people together to provide a space for all who want to vote for Independence.

A vote that will count.

Country before Party!
