I am not sure Scotland will be impressed by the man coming to lead Reform.
Scotland doesn’t really do Lords and Ladies! We believe all are equal.
Titles bring assumptions, this one being, ‘I am better than you’.A step back to colonialistic imperialism.
Well no thank you!
This year is about Scotland moving forward, not backwards. This year is about a vision to rebuild Scotland not break it apart through further privatisation.
This year is also about showing the world who we truly are and what we want….and that is not more colonialism.
I would call Reform, Scotlands Trojan Horse…
It’s what lies within, that weneed to fear!
Supermarkets in Scotland ask us to buy Scottish products, so why would we vote for anything other than Scottish? And by that I mean ‘homegrown’, not shipped up from England!
If Referendums are dead in the water, so is Devolutionism.
Continuity won’t cut it anymore, we cannot continue to stand by and watch the Scotland we know and love, disappear…..and it is disappearing! Not just the powers we were given but also the land.
Looking at the above, it’s hard to believe that the People are Sovereign!
A high % is owned by foreigners with the rest still linked to our colonial masters!
Let’s redraw the land boundaries.
Let’s change the political system in Scotland.
Let’s put people into Holyrood who actually care about Scotland.
It is the ordinary people of Scotland, not politicians, who make Scotland what it is and what it will become.
And it will be the people of Scotland who will decide the outcome in this Election, not the Party that can throw the largest amount of money into their campaign.
It is estimated that 91% of households in Scotland now have access to the internet. This is important for the smaller parties because this is where the battlelines will be drawn.
Leafletting is important, but let’s be honest: you may read one personally handed to you on the street, but most bin those that come through the letterbox. Only the politically engaged trawl through everything, and political engagement is at an all-time low.
I see the word ‘Mandatory’ is to be dropped from the Digital ID scheme, as Labour does its 13th/14th U-TURN. Something tells me it will reappear later. It does however show one thing……the people can win! And we will win in Scotland!!
…. and today we also found out what the PM reads 😂😂😂😂
Never underestimate the power ordinary people have.
Liberate Scotlands job is to harness that power!
Unity is about bringing people together who seek the same goal, it is about collaboration not confrontation. Everyone has their own ideas about a future Independent Scotland but we have to get there first!
The sucess of the YES vote in this election is only the first step in a very long process.This is why it is important to get the right people into Holyrood to see that process through to the end. The way things are looking just now, their first fight might be to force whoever is in power to allow a Plebiscite Election, because Referendums are dead in the water.
A lot also depends on the outcome of the Decolonisation route. Something we should all still be supporting. These two things, although entirely separate should be running in parallel…..but are they?
The wind that is blowing within the grassroots is turning into a gale. Liberate Scotland has become a game-changerand Unity can win the day!
We are approaching a critical stage in campaigning, so maybe it’s time to ‘snuff out the bad actors’.
There are many who say Independence but really mean Devolution.
There are none so blind, as those who will not see!
“Money and the SNP”, are no longer words that should be mentioned in the same sentence.
The Scottish government may well have the right to complain about being shortchanged byWestminster, but we also have the right to demand an explanation on how that money is spent by them and why.
Just how much is spent on wild goose chases?
Re-challenging the Supreme Court ruling and hiding part of Nicola’s case are but two. These are to save face not to bring justice. If you are wondering why they can’t fund councils properly, this is your answer and don’t even get me started on the Freeports bonanza.
Countries don’t go broke because there is no money, they are broke because of the way they spend the money and councils are no different. When you give huge pay rises to those at the top of the tree…..those at the bottom will ultimately pay!
But let’s put money aside for a while and look at ourselves. By that I mean, where are we as individuals, in this fight for Liberty?
Our motives and individual aspirations are important.
Individual aspirations are not wrong provided our motives stand the test. I don’t doubt for one minute that many MSPs start with the right motives, but what happens after that is often down to party politics.
Those standing under Liberate Scotland never wanted to become politicians. But the lack of progress towards Independence plus the absurd legislation this present governing body has tried to pass has resulted in the need for them to stand up and be counted. With women in particular feeling the need to protect themselves.
These are the people who are turning heads at the moment. Not just because they are different but because they are genuine! They are not out to ‘rule’ anything but they will influence much!
Change is coming and LS are the game changers, in the political landscape of Scotland.
I think it would be fair to say that this country is at a crisis point, in fact one could say that about the world.
Rumours of war grow more prevalent each day. The thing we have to remember is that wars start because men/women fail. Some wars are intentional, driven by agendas!Labour has a history when it comes to warmongering. Let’s not forget it.
And there is no better reason to go to war than to create a crisis, financial or otherwise.
We continually ask the wrong questions.
Instead of asking why prices and taxes are higher, we need to ask how our money is being spent. [ by the way, if you look at the price of crude oil, you will notice it hasn’t gone up….what has gone up is the profits!]
The ‘how’ is just as important as the ‘why’!
All the devolved countries in Britain have to balance the books….but not Westminster!
Don’t spend too long wondering why!!
Governments have forgotten that not everything is about profit. We profit when we look after our people. The experiment of lowering working hours has resulted in increased productivity. But don’t expect it to come your way soon…..Westminster doesn’t like the idea.
We must look forward yes, but we must also never forget. Remember this…..
Like every other promise about Independence, it came and went! So why are we even thinking about giving them another chance?
This rhetoric of ‘only the SNP can……’ is meaningless, considering that at one point the SNP government even downgraded the importance of Independence.
The only reason it is being raised again is because of the impending Election……just another carrot!
If hope is needed in this crisis, then Liberate Scotland is it.
Small becomes bigger when people engage, when people see the need for something different and grab the opportunity.
Join the radical rebels who want change!
Don’t cry for change then turn your back on that very change.
If you are curious about this band of radicals, but don’t, at this point want to attend formal politicalgatherings then I know just the social event to attend….
There are times when I just despair, and this is one of them!
Please tell me how anyone is meant to prepare for the ‘end of the world’?!!
Headlines do not necessarily tell the truth, but they do ‘sell’ newspapers!…..and profits are what matter!
Sensationalism sells!!
Lies sell.
Gossip sells…….anything but the truth sells!
If my memory serves me well, that used to be the prerogative of The News of the World!!
When it comes to stirring up trouble our MSM are masters and remember, half a truth is a lie!……and our politicians are no better.
If there is going to be ‘a new world order’ as some suggest, now is the time for Scotland to make its move.
Ask yourself which is most likely to have Scotlands best interests at heart.
Is it the ones who are selling off Scotland to the highest bidder under the false flags of Freeports & SEZ….and all the other zzzz!! Or is it those who believe Scotland with all its wealth, resources and people, has what it takes to stand alone?
If the independence movement has any Achilles heel, it is the ability to allow the few, who I call ‘bad actors’ to upset the applecart so easily.
Online, there is legitimate discussion then there are those just out for an argument, why we give them so much oxygen is beyond me.
This should be our reply…
As for Starmer trying to get back into the EU by the back door, has he forgotten about the deregulated Freeports and these little monsters they signed up to…..
…..and by the way, it is the investors who decide whether or not a treaty has been broken. Which means that even a change in the Local Authority by-laws could trigger such a claim!!
England and Scotland can’t afford these things. But then I suppose Westminster are masters at just walking away from or breaking contracts, they’ve done it in Scotland for centuries.
Today will be an interesting day at the Court of Session, I can’t think of anybody better than Joanna to defend the cause.
This is the kind of Scotland I want to see. A place where people are more important than profits and outcomes are more important than incomes.
Will I see it?
I doubt it, given my age, but what I can do is help lay the foundations for a new Scotland, an Independent Scotland.
The ISP was founded to be instrumental in the laying of these foundations. Foundations for Direct Democracy [whichever version Scotland decides] and bring Truth into Politics. I should know, being one of the founder members. Now they have joined with others who have similar goals.
Our policies may not be the same but our goal is! Independence, nothing less!
What is a ‘Professional Politician’?
Ans. A career politician, and my definition of that is, their ambition is to climb the greasy pole and make as much money as possible!
This is not the ambition of those standing under the Liberate Scotland umbrella. Their goal is to get the ball rolling towards Independence then go! No long-term ambitions, just get the job done…..and maybe cause a stooshie or two along the way….then go!
We should maybe call them ‘the wake-up gang’ because Holyrood will certainly wake up when they get there!!
I see the present lot have awarded themselves a £3,000 pay rise….the gravy just got thicker!
Change is certainly coming, and it won’t necessarily be the one the polls are trying to sell you!All the polls are neglecting to tell you what is happening at the grassroots level.…..and there’s a lot!!!
A revelution starts when the people have had enough…..and Scotland has had enough!
The weevils are starting to come out of the woodwork trying to destroy parties that focus on Independence. But truth is what matters, not false flags.
The simple answer to that question is…..you are!And we have paid for every previous failed attempt when either being taken to court or trying to oppose a legal ruling.
Money wasted on pet projects instead of supporting vital services.
Remember this in May when you go to vote!
Women make up the majority of voters in Scotland and we will not forget the betrayal of this former SNP/Green alliance.
There is only one Alliancethat fights for the Rights of women, and that is this…..
……never underestimate the power of a few determined people.
This Alliance along with others can only right these wrongs if you put them into Holyrood.
Their main objective is of course Independence, but they can and will ruffle some feathers elsewhere!! For them it’s not about Party Political games, it is about Right and Wrong!….and wasting taxpayers money like this, is just wrong!
I also notice that our FM is sitting on the fence again, [although I acknowledge he has no say, but is that not the point….we are voiceless.] about the involvement of our troops in seizing that oil tanker. Let’s get one thing straight, the headline was ‘off the coast of Scotland’ a deliberate use of words to alarm us! It was in International waters, therefore to do so was illegal in itself, and one that has the possibility of bringing us nearer to war.
These tankers are not under International sanctions, they are under USA sanctions which is a pretext to allow piracy!
Let’s call this for what it really is.……THEFT!
Why is Starmer rattling the rattle snake?
Why is this important to us in Scotland?
The geographical placement of Scotland is important to Trump and others! He wants total control of the North Atlantic seas, hence his desire for Greenland.
……we do not control any of our waters…..Trump does! We just play the game and do as we are told.
The only way we can gain control of our own seas is through Independence.Until then we are at Trump’s mercy!
Just think about that and look at the competence of the man who would rule the world!
It’s time to change the order of the guard in Holyrood and put in the real influencers.
Let’s stop sugar-coating things and start saying it as it is.
Sometimes people like to use ‘kinder’ words to express something that might be taking place before our eyes in order to hide an inconvenient truth. The optics are better!!
A United Kingdom, sounds very cosy does it not? But we are not ‘united’ and we feel anything but ‘cosy’!
Take the word ‘merger’ for example. We often hear of companies merging, but when you delve into the details, it’s actually a takeover…..and that is a very different kettle of fish!
In a merger, the two remain equal, in a takeover one becomes dominant, and the other loses out big time.
Don’t think this is irrelevant to the Yes movement, because it isn’t. Even the word ‘Unity’ can be used to deceive. True Unity comes about when organisations or parties unite around a common cause but remain autominous, true to their own policies.
Liberate Scotland is a prime example of unity in action.
There is no ‘merger’ or ‘takeover’ just three groups of people working together to promote Independence first.
I believe the majority of independent-minded people know that without Unity within the wider movement, Independence won’t happen.
Now is the time to start demanding it, any party or organisation worth its salt will listen to its members. Otherwise, they will pay at the ballot box.
The carrots are already on display, so let’s turn all this on its head. Instead of seeking what we want, let’s start looking at what we don’t want again!
Manifestos and agendas are two different things, the latter often written in code!!! Eg. The words ‘promote diversity’ can hide a multitude of agendas whilst sounding good. [Remember self-ID is still on the SNP radar.]
Professional politicians are experts at hiding their real agendas.
Where in the Labour manifesto did it say we would support the USA in its illegal activities? We are edging ever nearer WW111.
Those in Liberate Scotland say what they mean and mean what they say!
They are the real dealand people are catching on.
May is no ordinary Election, the world is changing at a pace and very soon it will be too late to change Scotlands direction. You may laugh at Trump’s words, but in the last 3 days he has shown what he is capable of… and he ain’t finished yet.
Money talks and there are a lot of politicians willing to sell their souls.
Liberate Scotland is ready to cause a political earthquake. All the polls put the SNPas winning the largest share of the vote, but they don’t have overall power. This is where the smaller parties can become the Power Brokers!
No more Woke, instead they will poke the bear and hold them to account, and women in particular will have a voice once again!
Stop looking back, we are not travelling in that direction!
When Leaders lose their voice, they cease to be Leaders. 48hrs in, and still Starmer has refused to condemn Trump’s actions. Somebody said yesterday in his defence that ‘diplomacy is delicate’!?!
My interpretation of that is, we are terrified of upsetting the Trump machine.
However, up here, north of Hadrian’s Wall, we are beginning to find ours! But what we don’t want, is just a lot of noise! We need to send a clear united message to Westminster…… we’re off!
We also do not want another Referendumbased on Section 30! To do so would acknowledge our compliance.
May is just the start of the journey. I am no expert on Constitutional matters, but I do know it’s a long process.
What we need going forward is a Holyrood full of honest brokers. This automatically rules out English-based Party MSPs!….. sadly there are also some Scottish ones hiding beneath the cloak of Independence…….the devolutionists!
How’s this for showing your true colours?!
Devolution was a chain not a gift!
But these are not the only weevils in the Independence pantry. And, slowly but surely, over the next few months, we will see how destructive they can become. They poison everything they touch but do so in a way they hope no one will notice!Snide comments are their speciality.
So, who are the honest brokers, you may ask. Well, for me, it is this lot!
[This is only a few of them!]
….and I choose my friends carefully😅
They are amongst the many voices [ I include other Indy Parties here] who speak up honestly for Scotland.
Every voice is important and those voices will be needed on May 7th.
The SNP might be refusing to make it a Plebiscite Electionbut there will be those taking note and counting the vote for Independence, and that is what now matters.
We must get the Independence momentum going again, irrespective of Party.
My choice is to do it through the group that believes in Unity…….what is yours?
When you own government starts to deliberately block the truth, then you know that we now live in a dictatorship not a democracy.
And you know it’s time to go!
The hangovers have gone, so let’s now look at REALITY.
The rich are getting richer, whilst poverty increases.
We have a PM who is deliberately causing division with his two-tier policies.
The war mongers are coming for our kids, waving false flags.
Democracy is dead, even the EC says cancelling Elections is illegal.
Private colgomerates now own our country, and that includes Scotland.
Privatisation doubles costs as well as profits!
Our own MSPs have been willing collaborators in all of this.
WE STOP THIS NOW OR NOT AT ALL!
The game ends when one team stops playing, make this year, the year we stop playing!
In May we can start a new game, Scotlands game, and we do so by making sure the majority of bums sitting in Holyrood are hell bent on achieving Independence. It will be a long game, one where we work together and not step on each other’s toes. It really is not a good look to drop bombs on another’s work. The first rule being we follow and support the Decolonisation route. The second rule, we prepare the groundwork for that to happen.
We must turn our fear into a fight, because never before has the word freedommeant so much. Freedom of speech has gone, and freedom of thought will be next! Welcome to the world of AI!!
But first things first..
There is a process…… and wishful thinking is not part of it!
