It appears there is a muffled whisper amongst the grassroots members of the SNP with one fairly well-known member raising his head above the parapet in a bid to change things.
I met this guy a number of years ago when I was an SNP member and I remember him as one of the ‘good guys’!
But whatever happens in the future one thing is certain, Scotland needs a sea change on every level and it is up to all of Scotland’s people to make that happen whether they belong to any Party or none.
There is only one organisation bringing everyone together and that is the Liberation movement.
Now is not the time to say ‘well I belong to this Party and we believe in…’
Now is the time for us all to be saying ‘I want Independence now through a viable route and I believe in a Sovereign Scotland’.
Yesterday was a good day for Salvo/Freeports as leaflets were given out and many questions were asked by folk who knew nothing about them. Let’s keep that ball rolling by any means possible.
Let the wind continue to blow and bring some fresh air into Politics!
How far to the Right will Swinney + Forbes take us before we all disappear over the cliff and become Buffalo wings?!!
Or will the Chickens come home to roost before then?
The internet never forgets, even if we do!
It must be a living nightmare for our Politicians to try and remember what they have said or shouldn’t have said in the past, because there are thousands of us just waiting to remind them😂
So would Mr Swinney care to explain, why on Monday he was down in London at a Right Wing Think Tank meeting?
I think this is self-explanatory!
When I was in the SNP it was Left of Center, now it’s so far Right it’s become part of the Libertarianism thinking movement [USA] where Privatisation is the name of the game. This will eventually include your SNHS and Education, for starters.
So, you can buy the best health care and the best education for your kids…..if you have the money.
We will be back to the worst of the old days….if you have it….you will get it…..if not…you won’t!
But what we can do, through Salvo/Liberation is get the BEST of the old days, modernise it, add Direct Democracy and take back control.
Here we go again, continuity continuing! The SNP ball just keeps bouncing along.
I suppose there is a vague hope that Kate Forbes has produced some of her own red lines, but as far as Freeports are concerned Swinney and Forbes are two peas in a pod.
I can’t quite see how unity will be accomplished though, with the likes of John Nicholson hating Kate, she will undoubtedly have a major role in the Swinney Cabinet.
I know it’s not formal yet but I think we all know the result. The thing that gets me though is, why do the members not get a say? It seems Democracy is dead everywhere these days.
It’s not just give us your vote, then shut up but give us your money then shut up!
But then we have the likes of Boris who forgets his own rules and is refused a vote😂😂
I think I will identify as a bat today and view the world upside down….might get a clearer view as to whats going on!
Nothing is straightforward anymore, we used to laugh at conspiracy theorists but now conspiracies abound in everybackroom!
Deals like Freeports & SEZs, which no one voted for are thrust upon us without any explanation. So the Salvo/Freeport group have had to dig deep for the truth….and it’s not good. Easy to see why the facts have been hidden.
In a very short space of time, the first thing to go will be Local Democracy as their funding dries up.…not sure that penny has dropped yet within Local Councils!
There are none so deaf as those who will not hear!
Tomorrow however thousands will March in Glasgow, even Indy MPS and MSPs….I hope they listen to themselvesand the people around them.
Not until the day Scottish Politicians step back from this oath, will I believe they are sincere about Scottish Independence.
These ‘Honourable’ people are not honourable because on the one hand they swear an oath to the King at the same time as trying to split his so-called Kingdom!
I didn’t realise Angus Robertson is a Privy Councillor!
We have to accept that at this juncture in our Parliamentary history, the First Minister has to swear an Oath to the King, what I cannot accept is that they remain in that clique for life.
Where is the honour in that?
Others have left, usually in protest!
It is time for the people of Scotland to stand on their feet and stop playing this game. The longer we send MPs down to Westminster, the longer the game goes on and the longer Holyrood remains but a sub-office!
I say ‘sub-office’ because that’s what it has become, it’s one thing to swear an oath but it’s quite another to wear the whole Unionist Mantle!
So, when you March through Glasgow this weekend, mean what you say and say what you mean!
Make Saturday a new beginning and move forward as one with the Liberation movement which is across the political divide.
Who knows what’s going on, speculation abounds and most scenarios are scary.
When it comes to chess, players are thinking 3 or 4 moves ahead and we have to try and be ahead of the game to.
It’s not what’s put up in front of us that matters it’s whats going on behind the doors and to try and figure that one out is nigh impossible. But the one thing we can do is look at the main players themselves. Are they honest brokers? Can we trust what they say.
Also do any believe in Direct Democracy, the way they treat us or indeed their own members should answer that one!
For me it’s simple, I don’t trust any of them, sad but true.
So I will just stick with Salvo/Liberation to get our Sovereignty and eventually Independence back.
Oh, and there is one Party backing Salvo/Liberation.
Don’t get sucked in to any route that entails Westminster, unless you want ‘lived in hope’ written on your headstone!
Salvo is the only movement moving! It might take time but it’s moving and it’s legal!
I am not dismissing the idea of UDI either.
So today’s headlines of who might be the King makers are of no consequence if their plan involves Westminster.
With Freeports/ SEZs we don’t have time for more Westminster games.
In fact there won’t be much of Scotland left to fight over.
So, please don’t waste time playing their games, instead ask about Freeport’s. Talk to everyone about them within the context of Independence.
Well it’s been a very interesting 24hrs and set to continue no doubt.
We have Leaders of all Parties in Government giving their opinions and what they intend to do regarding the No-Confidence Vote.
But I am just wondering are any Leaders going to ask their members what they think or even more importantly what action their members want them to take?
That would be real Direct Democracy!
Never mind making backroom deals or threats, let the peoples voice be heard or at very least members!
There is only one Party I know that will do that….guess who?!!
And it’s very important to do that for several reasons not least being we could have two Elections within a very short space of time.
There is a lot of speculation about this but in truth on this, no one has a crystal ball, and a lot of caveats are in play.
One being Humza might panic and jump!
So sit back, popcorn in hand and see how the dice roll!!
It’s amazing how a bit of good news can lift one’s spirits😂 I would dance if I could…but I can’t!
So Humza jumped first and will now lead a minority government. I see a slight problem…its called “revenge”..by the Greens.
Hold on to your hats it’s going to be a bumpy ride for the next 24 months.
In the meantime will there be a SNP leadership fight?
Now is the time to ramp up the pressure on Freeports and SEZS, time to expose the truth and who in the government are up to their necks in it.
The SNP always leaned to the left in Politics so who has gone ultra-right and joined the Tories?
…. and who in Local Government is partnering big money to give access to Common Good land and assets?
“The thief cometh in the night”
Here in Scotland, they come all day every day and no one is policing them.
Today is good news but the SNP are now severely weakened, a minority government can work with the right people at the helm, but is that what we have? Do we have strong Leadership…frankly…NO!
New thinking is required and Salvo/Liberation.scot is there to give it, but will Humza swallow his prideenough to listen or will he boldly march on into oblivion taking Scotland with him?
The opportunity for us to make ourselves heard is now!
Have we become a nation of sheep who blindly follow our Leaders?
Do you understand? Has the game changed for you? Are you now a game changer?
As we learn more and more about Freeports and SEZs we begin to realise that it’s not just Westminster or indeed Holyrood who are imposing this upon us but our own Local Authorities are in on the game!
Maybe I should correct that statement to, some in our Local Authorities are in on the game!
The higher you crawl up the greasy pole the more power you haveor think you have!
When it comes to Party Politics we have huge flocks of sheep following their Leaders, some just keep their heads down and blindly follow, others show a bit of courage only to get whipped into line. Occasionally someone will put their head well above the parapet and rebel but they are few and far between.
We need more rebels and we need to join thembecause our Leaders are devouring us!
Every policy or Law they now so recklessly make destroys our country, our national reputation and even many of us as individuals.
Suddenly Sunak can find £bs for defence but nothing to keep the NHS alive. He says we live in a dangerous world….and who has helped make it such I wonder.
Nothing that is happening today was ever voted for, the wolves have well and truly entered the arena and are eating up the land under the guise of progress and investment.
Will you become a game changer? We need to put Westminster and Holyrood on notice that things will change whether they like it or not. Our present MPs and MSPs think they are ‘entitled’ to remain in charge…the minute they through Independence under the bus they lost that entitlement! So we must now pick up the Thistle and run with it.
Today is Earth Day but I continually find myself saying ‘What on earth is going on’?
When I think of the word Democracy I don’t just think of it as casting a vote but also as openness within the sphere of Politics. It appears there is no such thing now and if you question anything the answer is ‘well that’s just the way it is now’!
Are we really going to sit back and be dictated to in that way?
Did any of our Local Councils consult us on this? Did they tell us most investment monies would be from Private Consortiums plus some from the Scottish Goverment ie our taxes?
Have they explained the tax breaks these companies will get and who will fill the gap?
Do our Councillors even know the answer to these questionsor will they just roll their eyes and say.…it is what it is?
Change can be good, and if these changes are good, why the secrecy?
What on earth is going on behind our backs? Why are secret deals being made and who is profiting?
We certainly won’t be!
There is a darkness about Scottish Politics just now, secrets and lies being the order of the day.
I popped down to George Sq on Saturday, more out of curiosity than anything and as usual heard the cries for Independence. People were desperate for a plan….but there was no plan apart from a quick mention of another Sec30!…and the people sighed!
We are weary of promises that don’t work and many have given up….and that’s just what Humza and his cohort want. Because when people give up and stop interacting the back door opens for Politicians to carry out their hidden agendas.
Suddenly, the land has gone and Freeports & SEZs have arrived and we say ‘How did that happen’?
Well, it’s happened, they are here and we are going to have to deal with the fallout.
So go along to your local hustings and check out the facts and questions you need to ask at;
I must admit that I had a little laugh to myself when I looked up the real meaning of Democracy.
“a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections.’
‘The supreme power vested in the people’…mmm
Can’t remember when that last happened, not even in Scotland.
Direct Democracy or pure democracy on the other hand is completely different.
In short, it means we the people decide the policies, not our elected representatives and then our elected representatives [Politicians] have to implement them. In other words, power is taken away from Politicians and they just become administrators working for us!
Oh, how I wish!
The Freeport and SEZ trains have well and truly arrived in Scotland with huge areas of Scotland about to be privatized.
Ignore this at your peril because this affects every service you now get for free.
Slowly but surely the slow creep of Privatisation will take over all our services, health, education, water etc etc and in some extreme cases your land.
Under the Bute House Agreement, the Greens weren’t gagged for nothing but now one or two of them are wondering if it was all worth it.
Libertarianism has become the hidden ideology within the SNP….and you thought it was the gender ideology!!!
The likes of Kate Forbes have been well and truly captured by this new political ideology.
Less Government and more Privatisation is the death of Democracy, even the minimal Democracy we have now.
Our parents/grandparents went to war to defend Democracy, but now its enemy has come in a different guise.
Did we vote for this…NO!
We are sitting back looking at what is happening with the disaster that is Teeside and some cities that are bankrupt thinking it can’t happen here. Wake up folks, it didn’t happen down there by accident, there was a master plan and it’s the same plan that is being played out here with Freeports etc.
Privatisation is about profit not about people and if you don’t get that, we are lost.
Check out the facts
@SalvoFreeports
Now is not the time for apathy, now is the time to let your voice be heard, now is the time for Humza to say to Westminster….. get lost, were off!
