"What #Liberation #Scotland seeks is both internationally lawful & a fundamental, human right. It's simple justice for our nation and long overdue”

We seek formal recognition of Scotland as a Non-Self-Governing Territory under the UN #decolonization framework

What Route to Self-determination for #Scotland when our struggles for our political rights & economic, social & cultural development have been undermined, opposed & blocked by the UK.

Formal recognition as a Non-Self-Governing Territory by the United Nations. #Decolonisation

Taking it into our own hands. Get involved, there is so much to play for. Lobby our law makers at every level of Gov to push for significant land reform, assist community energy production, own district heating systems. How a Scottish constitution would look?

Inside the convention on Scotland's future.

Activists from across the movement, parties and sectors were in the room with several issues to tackle, all driven by the same question: “If the politicians can’t do it – can we?"

There is no union in the UK. It's a lie, a myth peddled by successive governments, the English establishment & the monarchy, since 1707, to disguise the fact that #Scotland is an annexed nation, and in all respects a colony of the Anglo-British state.
