Campaigning for independence
A refreshed case for an independent Scotland requires a fresh campaign – a campaign that understands the new circumstances and also the modern media landscape.
Westminster isn’t delivering for energy rich Scotland
I’m old enough to remember when the Labour Party said they’d cut heating bills by £300. Cast your mind back to July and you’ll remember it was all over Labour leaflets and heard repeatedly in speeches. Now we know the truth. Because the reality is the British Government, in its most recent red incarnation, will…
Starmer’s made it clear just how little he thinks of Scotland’s cities
Edinburgh is one the UK’s most ancient cities – a place steeped in history. It is a powerhouse of the Scottish and UK economies as the centre of a thriving and prosperous financial services sector, the second largest outside London and with a GDP of £31.8 billion in 2022. It’s also a key driver of…
Making our own choices with independence
Ten years on from the referendum, people in Scotland are looking forward towards the nation they believe we will become with independence.

Building hope and optimism in Scotland after a disastrous decade for Brexit Britain
It’s a strange sensation to look back at the first independence referendum. Because despite ending up on the losing side – I can’t help but be reminded of a deep sense of hope and optimism.

Independence is essential to making Scotland a fairer country.
Scotland's future must be in Scotland's hands
Westminster isn’t working for Scotland. Brexit Britain is broken, causing food prices to rise, living standards to fall and wiping billions from public spending that funds the NHS and other public services. If we continue like this, we will increasingly have less money to spend.
Independence lets us build a better future. Look at all the thriving independent countries like Scotland – Denmark, Ireland and Norway are all fairer and wealthier. If they can do it, why not Scotland?
Independence is ultimately about us, the people, and making sure that our government works hard to serve us by using Scotland’s resources to benefit us all and not just a privileged few. With independence, the days of getting right-wing Tory governments that we didn’t vote for will be over for good.
The only guaranteed outcome of a Westminster Labour Government is the Tory Government that always follows it.
