Join us for an evening of Scottish tradition and good cheer as we celebrate Robert Burns at the stunning Crieff Hydro on the evening …
The SNP was formed almost 90 years ago. No one should be surprised that they wanted independence, that was a founding principle in 1934. That was then, and for a long time after, but now? Election time sees Independence wheeled out, the SNP win an election mandate, and then nothing is done. After several recent …
In 1967, when Winnie won the Hamilton by-election, she famously said, ‘Stop the World, Scotland wants to get on’. The win was the start of the rise of the SNP with Independence becoming an election issue. Winnie is the only politician to have been a member of the Westminster Parliament, the European Parliament and the …
“Sovereignty stands with the Scottish coastal communities in opposing the Scottish Government’s plans for Highly Protected Marine Areas.” The Scottish Government’s HPMA proposals will undoubtedly do major damage to coastal communities, if implemented; they must be fought and defeated. As usual, our urban elite are showing blatant disregard for who make their living off the …
Sovereignty believes that the Scottish Government must instruct the Fisheries Protection Agency to pick up their oversight role to protect those fishing boats, local and foreign, abiding by the rules, and to enforce the rules on those fishing boats, local and foreign, who do not abide by the rules. Sovereignty is committed to the long-term aim …
“Sovereignty believes that the Scottish Greens are a danger to the Scottish oil industry and the many oil related jobs, direct and indirect, that society will be using oil products for another 50 years until non-oil replacements are in place, that the oil industry in Scottish waters must be protected, and where appropriate new oil …
It’s a basic principle of democracy that you do not disenfranchise your fellow citizens by framing the vote. In a general election, this means allowing the widest array of different candidates and parties to stand; and, if a group of citizens do not have a party that represents their views, allowing them to form one. …
As a party, we wish to reaffirm our opposition to the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill (GRR). By removing medical supervision, and extending eligibility for a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC) to anyone aged 16 or over who self-identifies as the opposite sex, the safety of women and children is compromised as well as diminishing support …
Across the world, national independence movements have invariably achieved their end without without the need for a prospectus. In fact, it’s a curious device, a sort of election manifesto for the indefinite future, certain to date hard and fast. ‘Building a New Scotland’ is an oddly singular vision, derived not as a result of any …
Sovereignty’s stance on gender recognition reform Why is society being turned upside down for the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Act (GRR) for what, for some, is a whim, for others, an opportunity to commit evil? Those with genuine gender dysphoria are almost irrelevant in this social engineering exercise. We should all believe in looking after …
Given the United States’ role as trendsetters globally, the US Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v Jackson will resonate in a particular way in Western Europe, which tends to follow the States in sociocultural matters by a decade or so. That the United States ended up with some of the most permissive abortion laws on …
On Friday 1 April, Restore Scotland relaunched as Sovereignty at a meeting of members in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire[1]. We remain committed to full independence for Scotland from the European Union (EU) and United Kingdom as opposed to the independence currently on offer, which is merely another form of unionism willing to squander political and economic …
