The big discussion has started and I hope that both our current crop of Scottish parliamentarians and other Parties are taking note.

2026 is the date on the lips of all activists….politics is not dead to everyone!

The interesting thing is, that these discussions are mostly cross-party, indicating that people are fed up with parties bickering. They want Independence….end of story. They want Parties to work together…..but will they?

My feeling is that in the end, it will be up to us as individuals with one or two exceptions.

As individuals, we find ourselves in a very unique position, a position where we can individually change the course of Scottish history.

There is no magic formula but we do need a formula…..a strategy!

We are in a kind of tug-of-war, a constitutional tug-of-war and the more people we have on our team the more pulling power we will have.

We chose our team and we will write the name on the tag!

…… right now it appears the people have chosen their team, it is called Liberation and it’s not political, but it is powerful!

Powerful because it harnesses the collective power of individuals and doesn’t require either Holyrood or Westminster’s permission.

The plan will by-pass them as Liberation go straight to the ICJ and they will not be happy to learn Westminster deceived them when last asked about Scotland’s status….but then they already know how devious the British government can be.

What Scotland is facing now with Corporate governance is more than just a passing storm, one that we will have to ride out until the 2026 election…. we can and must change the system then, and we start now.

…..we start in our own homes. Talking to our families, our kids and grandkids. If you want to stand on street corners handing out leaflets….good for you but for some of us those days are long gone, so we start with what we have….family! Adding one individual at a time, building the team.

Join the Liberation team today, put your name where it will be counted.

The Scottish Parliamnent did not reconvene on the 12th May 1999, a new arm of Westminster did under the guise of Devolution!

Old Scots Law is not taught in any University in Scotland, only an English interpretation of it. Neither is Constitutional Law!

To this day, the Scottish Government refuses to acknowledge the Scottish Constitution or The Claim of Right, which can and will extricate us from this sham Union.

The only Political building in the world that prohibits the wearing of its flag!……its too political.🙂‍↕️

The Peoples Parliament locks its people out!

…..and Corporate Governance will lead to bankruptcy….. Birmingham Council is the most recent example.

Britain is broke but the company’s that we are paying to invest are not! And no deal yet has lived up to expectations, on the contrary Councils are just waking up to the errors they have made…..a bit like PFI under Labour.

Is it too late…..well no….thanks to Salvo who did warn these firms the contracts they were signing were illegal.

But before we deal with them there is the not-so-little matter of regaining our worldwide legal status and that will only happen if we lay Party Politics aside and move forward as one people.

Can we do it, can we learn the meaning of compromise….I do wonder at times!

Join those working their proverbial socks of trying to make this happen.

Would you describe yourself as normal?

I wouldn’t describe myself that way…….what is normal anyway?

Sounds rather boring to me!

Politicians want us to be normal, any divergence from that is labelled ‘extremist’, and that is precisely how those in Westminster perceive those of us who pursue our Dream. Yet they have no problem celebrating other countries who have successfully gained their Independence.

Everytime a Commonwealth Country showed their intention to seek Independence, Westminster told them and the world they couldn’t afford it…..yet not one of those countries has either become bankrupt or sought to rejoin the Great Britain rip-off!

I am not sure they will get away with that reason for Scotland! They know Independence is coming hence the hurry to Privatise everything and it’s already going pear-shaped south of the Border.

For those of us with some years under our belts, we remember when a contract meant a contract and the company’s bidding for those contracts accepted the penalty clauses…..not now for government or LA contracts in Freeports or SEZ areas…..guess who pays for any risks?

You do, out of your Local Authority budgets, the budgets that have already been decreased because of companies’ tax relief incentives.

It’s time to take a closer look at what your Local Council is up to!

The days are long gone when we just elected someone to the Council or even as MSP and just left them to get on with it…..even if they are not complicit in these underhand dealings they should at least know what’s going on and speak out….ignorance is not an excuse!

The problem is, even at the LA level many are too busy playing Politics and fear of the ‘whips’ takes precedence.

When ‘whips’ stalk the corridors of power they is no democracy only politics.

So, we who have been labelled ‘extremists’ must start living up to our reputation!

Salvo/Liberation have been busy thinking and working outside of the box and we also must find ways outside of the ‘norm’ to further the movement… and ways to pay for it!

Independence will not come cheap!

But it will not cost you a penny to join Liberation and Salvo.

We are all familiar with the saying ‘He who pays the piper, calls the tune’

Never has it been so true as it is in today’s Political theatre.

There also used to be a rule whereby politicians had to declare an interest in lobbying for a company, now they almost own the company!

One of the first priciples of government is to carry out the wishes of the people and to keep those people safe.

Today Governments are run like a business, and business is about profit. Now that might sound like a good idea, they spout things like efficiency etc, except in this case the profits are not being paid into the treasury to be redistributed, no they end up in the pockets of the company shareholders……how many MPs, even MSPs have bank accounts in the Caymen Islands these days?

How much money is hidden behind the heading ‘Think Tanks’, even they are big business these days!

Hundreds of thousands of people marched through the centre of London last Saturday. You wouldn’t see it on TV but there is no doubt about it, the people are rising and the biggest fear any government has is…..the people!

It is no different in Scotland, for the last 10 years the Scottish Government in particular its ruling party the SNP have done a brilliant job of marching the people to the top of the hill only to be marched down again. Promise after promise but never delivered.

Now a group of people are making noises, using a different strategy and feathers are being ruffled to the point where Westminster would like to cut off all connections to the EU, disengaging from previous treaties.

They would have you believe its all about re-writing Human Rights legislation, fit for a 2024-25 UK. I believe the other reason is to extricate itself from the De-colonization treaty!

Now why would they do that?

Scottish assets should be invested in its People.

Ask yourself why Peel Ports [Peel as in the Isle of Man] are going to charge thousands of small boat owners £100 per year to sail on the Clyde….. your river. Just the latest scheme to squeeze every last penny out of us….. and there are many more!

Believe me, your local Council is not your friend!

Scotland…….where is your self-respect❓

I keep seeing this poster on Twitter..

Scotland when are you going to realise, YOU ARE THE POWER?

And you can exercise that Power in May 2026 by voting for Sovereignty!

‘Time and tide wait for no man’ therefore we can not sit back and think 2026 is a long way off……it isn’t and there is some housekeeping to do!!

Salvo/Liberation along with others are building the foundations, our job is to prepare the ground, to plant the seeds.

There will never be a more fertile time than now to sow the seeds of change.

Britain is angry for many reasons but perhaps more so in Scotland……its personal up here!

Anger is a powerful emotion, one that can be harnessed to bring about the change we need and long for.

Take your anger to the ballot box!

Indy Parties and groups must reach out to each other and we as individuals must take every opportunity to start conversations with the people we meet, be it on the street, on a bus or in the pub. Scots love to talk and there’s plenty to talk about!

Very soon Councils will be announcing their Tax hikes, which will get people talking. Find the facts for your area, the ones the Council don’t want you to see!!!!

We need to become Super Sleuths!

Always look behind the headlines!

Don’t get caught out by time! The Elections may be 18+ months away but that does not mean this tidal wave of Privatisation is going to wait until then……this is happening now and has been affecting every Budget since Brexit!

Brexit set the map for the biggest corporate takeover in history and the first Council to feel its consequences has been Birmingham and its people!

Which city in Scotland will be next?

‘Investment’ is today’s holy grail, but it is what is being offered to attract that investment and what companies are demanding regarding ‘risk factors’ that will determine your Council Tax if you live in a Freeport area or SEZ.

Join us in the fight back before there is nothing left to fight for!

The course of Scotlands’ future is not being set by this budget, it was set hundreds of years ago, with the gears ramped up when oil was discovered!

Devolution was just an attempt to keep the natives happy and it worked for a while. Since then the promises have been scaled back aided and abetted by our devolusionist government in Holyrood. There is something sickening about seeing our MSPs fawning over the likes of Reeves and Starmer, they don’t even pretend anymore.

The only time you hear our government object to anything is when their own legislation doesn’t get the Royal Stamp of approval.

Good or bad actors…..you decide!

So, will we just throw our arms in the air and say, ‘that’s it were done’?( I was going to use another word but refrained😂) or will we use the power we have to set a different course?

Is it not time to turn to our MSPs and say this…..

One of our final Salvos as a People will be fired at the 2026 Holyrood Election, that is when we change things. But there is much work to do before that. There is no magic button to press, there is the not-so-little matter of persuading people who have been brainwashed into thinking that a Referendum is the only way to accept something different.

This will not be easy, because the first question they will ask is….well why are our Independence MSPs not doing this?……why indeed?

The Power we hold in our hands in 2026, is our vote! This time we can make a difference, putting Scotland back into the hands of its People!

They will not give us our Sovereignty back, therefore we must take it back!

Don’t fear change…..fear not changing!

The most important thing to remember about the change that Salvo/Liberation is suggesting is, this new kind of government they talk about is not like for like!

You will not be getting your ineffective MSPs back…..you will choose and choose again if necessary who and what you want. It is called Direct Democracy!

In the immediate aftermath of the 2026 Election, as there has been in other countries there will probably be some kind of interim governing body that will oversee a proper election, and then its back to normal politicking.

All this however is above my pay grade, I am just relaying what happened in other countries that were successfully decolonised.

The most important thing for now is to recognise the Power each one of us holds in our hands and to use it wisely…..otherwise, continuity will continue with Democracy being replaced with corporate democracy. Putting it simply Scotland will be run or over-run by Shareholders in Foreign lands.

Choose wisely my friends, we won’t get another go at this…..Scotland is being sold from under our feet and there is therefore the possibility that even Elections as we know them could disappear.

Say what you have to say now and say it with conviction!

We need builders, bridge builders! People who are prepared to let go of the past, people who believe in Scotland and the unifying of all around one task……to regain our Sovereign State which will lead to Independence.

What we don’t need is demolition experts whose purpose is to blow up bridges already in the making or built.

We have to wonder what their agenda is.

We have less than 2 years to get this right, we either cling to Party Politics and old grievances and die, or we agree to come together, united for Independence.

The politicking will take care of itself after the 2026 Election.

I have said this before, Politics is a game, that being so sometimes we must play by our rules, not those of others!

It’s time for grown-up thinking, not building power basis.

We all share the same Dream, but independently we cannot achieve it….that is a fact. We need to harness the enthusiasm that AUOB has and if that requires a bit of humility, so be it.

Liberation is the only place I know where we can all come together and fight as one, if I am wrong please correct me! They are the only group on the move right now…..and I mean right now!

Voting on their internal constitution ends this weekend, a requirement by EU Law to register as a Peoples Movement. It is my understanding that once this is done things will move pretty quickly. Exactly how and when that acts itself out I don’t know, but I do trust the people doing it.

This is so true, there are some bad actors out there, and some know who they are! We must not allow them to torpedo all the good work done so far just to boost their own egos.

So, we will be told at the appropriate time…..and I must admit, the suspense is killing me😅

Become a Dream Catcher, not a demolition expert.

Join the people making it happen. Pro-Indy, Pro People….not Pro-Politics!!

The subliminal messages have started already. Polls are appearing for the 2026 Scottish Election.

The first thing to point out is these polls are not independent, they are politically controlled and meant to carry a message.…or not!

This is the latest example and the kind generally used.

The message is, that these are the Parties standing, and so we go to vote with these in mind.

But when we get there we find that the list is very different, but we have gone into the polling station and usually in a hurry, with a fixed mind…..and so it is!

When it comes to smaller online polls, sometimes we see at the bottom of the poll the word ‘other’. The more discerning person will probably put the tick there but in general, it usually gets ignored.

We need to fix this and start playing the political game by their rules. If we want people to vote for a descriptor on a Ballot paper that uses the word Sovereignty then we have to start putting it on every online poll we create.

And we need to start putting these up now and building the vote.

SOVEREIGNTY must become that message just as the word Independence once was, and it doesn’t need to be subliminal, as under the radar.

Let’s get it out there for all to see and remember, Sovereignty will lead to Independence!

The political pollsters won’t do this, therefore we have to.

We can not allow the 2026 election just to become an SNP v Labour thing, the priority must be Sovereignty.

Words convey powerful messages and Sovereignty is one of those powerful words.

It says Scotland is Sovereign, it says we the People are Sovereign and the more we say it the more we feel it….and that will be the first Salvo we throw at Westminster!

When Liberation go to the UN, they will be seeking an answer to one question.

“Is Scotland a Colony or an equal Partner in a Union”?

If the answer is a Colony, which seems to be the position of most people, then we immediately ask for the decolonization process to start. If they say we are an equal Partner in a Union….we just say…..bye bye! Its a win win situation!!

It almost seems too easy, the question is easy, the process getting there has been a little harder! There is a process and rules, hence Liberation being set up as the legal arm of Salvo to take this forward.

And the more of us saying yes to Sovereignty in 2026 will move things forward at a quicker pace.

Scotland needs you and needs you now! Make sure the word Sovereignty is on everyone’s lips!

Applies to both Westminster & Holyrood!

If you type in ‘the founding principles of the Scottish Government’ this is what you come up with.

Where once there was competence we now have incompetence and treachery.

https://archive.is/SJ5jW

Yeah, I know it’s the Herald but it’s the same picture in every article, even those on SM! Add to this the Ferry fiasco, the costs of the failed Self-Id Bill, the Deposit Scheme, the selling off of our wind farms at a fraction of there worth and now the Freeports….where does it end?

It doesn’t until we get rid of this self-perpetuating government that is the SNP.

If we are still in this Union in 5 years, we will only have ourselves to blame.

There is a way out but if we fail to take it just because ‘our Party’ didn’t think of it…..then hell mend us! We will deserve everything Westminster throws at us…..and it won’t be pretty!

Next year’s Barnett Formula consequentials will be less than they were 10 years ago. This is not because there is less money, it’s because Westminster is choosing to give your money away to entice big foreign businesses to take over your country!

They call it, ‘Goverment at arm’s length’…..I call it, the death of Democracy!

And believe it or not, your Council is involved in this deception, all hatched out in Holyrood, the place where openness and accountability no longer exist.

What part of Freeports, and Privatisation enabling criminal activity do people not understand?

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/26/water-firms-england-passed-pollution-tests-never-carried-out-self-monitoring

This may not be Scotland yet…..but it’s coming!

We will get one chance to change this and one only……the 2026 Scottish Elections. All we have to do is unite around one word……Sovereignty!

We all believe Scotland is Sovereign, we all believe the People are Sovereign……so what’s the problem?

Come on…..join those making it happen.

The word ‘reparations’ has popped up a lot this week regarding slavery, this got me thinking about the same for Scotland after Independence.

However, I think we might have to take a reality check here. Britain is broke!

I am of course talking about monetary reparations here, not assets.

An England without Scotland paying off its interest will be a hundred times worse off, absolutely skint.

Sometimes they accidentally speak the truth😂

Yes, we can turn the taps off and make our assets work for us, but as for getting any £s back that might be just a bridge too far, nice as it would be!

Reparity justice is important and we will find a way!

They say we have debts even though we are not allowed to borrow, that’s maybe a starting place.

So, the new Chancellor has been rather creative when it comes to her CV. It’s, a bit like me saying because I held quite a large budget when I worked makes me an expert…..it doesn’t!

In any other job she would be fired even prosecuted…..but this is Politics where general rules don’t apply.

No wonder they favour deregulation in this new world order, along with powers to silence people!

We have entered an era where crime pays but speak against genocide at your peril.

We must take our land back, our values back and our parliament back and by that, I do not mean the Westminster estate that is Holyrood.

A new start means just that, not like-for-like! When the Sovereignty vote wins we cannot put one foot inside Holyrood, to do that would be to accept Westminster authority.

New does mean new and new will mean many changes. We have friends throughout the world who will help when Westminster plays hardball and makes wild threats.

We hold all the Aces don’t forget that.

We have all the knowledge we need, we just have to apply it.

The work of Liberation is to apply the knowledge we have learned about our past, other organizations are dealing with the nuts and bolts of running the country going forward.

Regaining our Sovereign rights will lead to Independence and Sovereignty must be what we all vote for first.

Join those who intend to do just that irrespective of Party Politics.
