My entire Scottish life, the Union Jack has been anathema. It's not OUR flag. For many Scots, the UJ represents sectarianism, racism, & colonialism

The majority of Scots WANT to leave, voted to stay in the EU, & do not vote for the party controlling Westminster.

"if . . the SNP fall short of a single-party majority, which at this stage looks like the most probable election outcome, that will be - as Toni Giugliano pointed out in his speech - a victory that we have chosen to turn into a defeat."

Remember, England doesn’t pay back its debts.

What little money they have comes from Scotland’s resources.

Westminster knows it.

But we know it too.
