If you want to argue that Scotland is not a colony, then you have to explain why only England-as-Britain is able to change the terms of the political union.

I've made the news!

Swinney is openly admitting that while speaking and acting on behalf of the people of Scotland, he accedes to the alien doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty.

The mindset that pervades the independence industry is what keeps Scotland’s cause on a treadmill of our own construction.

The resolution doesn’t call for any change in the SNP leadership’s current ‘strategy’.

Then the likes of Giugliano come along waving their credentials and telling the group, “Ye cannae dae that!”

This is the kind of ‘coincidence’ that prompts conspiracy theories.

Swinney was OK when it was a meeting of party leaders. It was a different story when it came to being in the same room as the likes of Common Weal (CW) and Scottish Independence Forum (SIF)

The interesting stuff comes with the amendment submitted by the Newington & Southside branch. You may recall that this is the branch responsible for what came to be called the Newington Resolution, submitted to the 2026 conference.

If we act in the manner of a sovereign state, it is for others to challenge our right to do so. It is for them to prove that we are not sovereign.

Not that anybody in Scotland really cares what Farage says, but remark was a "swip" not at John Swinney, but the whole of Scotland.

You won't find anybody among England's political elites who understand the constitutional issue. And Engand's media are just as ignorant.

But the pictures in the glossy brochure for the independence vacation are of different destinations. And there is no information at all about how and when you travel to whatever turns out to be the actual location.

One would expect that a ‘party of independence’ would have had a “Pathway to Independence” under continuous consideration since its inception.

If separatism is not wanting your nation run by a corrupt administration every time they elect a new leader, then I'm happy to be a separatist.

Independence is normal.

These exercises in futility are coming at the rate of one or two a week as the party conference looms and the SNP leadership grows more fearful of some kind of revolt by those in the party who recognise the game Swinney is playing.

The SNP’s failure to deliver the frequently promised referendum is without doubt the party’s Achilles heel.

The SNP doesn’t have a strategy for restoring Scotland’s independence. The leadership is desperately trying to conceal this fact while simultaneously making it glaringly obvious.

I will make the case that the generally accepted (SNP) framing of the constitutional issue is wrong and that the obstacles to progress for Scotland’s cause are not what we have been led to believe they are.

Scotland’s independence will not be restored by Westminster. Nor will Westminster provide the means and opportunity for the people of Scotland to fully and freely exercise our right of self-determination.
