The Bargaining Chip. A Guest Post from Julie McAnulty

Posted on by Barrheadboy

The Bargaining Chip – The Greens, the Budget and a Plebiscite –  Yesterday the SNP rejected the idea of a plebiscite at their National Assembly. This was disappointing, but not surprising to us at ISP. We still haven’t heard a good argument against the proposal; as we have been at pains to explain, it is a legitimate, democratic, internationally recognised means of expressing the will of the Scottish people. It offers a way out of the corner that we have boxed ourselves into with Section 30. And it would also take the tide of opinion at the flood, while there Read more about The Bargaining Chip.

Game Changer.

Posted on by Barrheadboy

Back in September I wrote a blog explaining in great detail why I personally would be giving my second vote to the ISP in May. It was a blog that invoked a lot of discussion as well as the usual bile from the usual suspects. Nobody, of course, challenged the mathematics or logic of my Read more about Game Changer.[…]

A Simple Plan.

Posted on by Barrheadboy

Let me make one point straight away, Scotland will once again become an independent sovereign nation of the world! The British Union is in its last days. The only questions that remain now are when and how Scotland will become independent.

The Sword Of Damocles

Posted on by Barrheadboy

Yesterday I had the great pleasure of being on a conference call with four of my fellow bloggers. Among the things we were discussing was what we as individuals or as a group could do to hasten Scottish independence. All expressed regret that in these times it is extremely difficult to find many positives to Read more about The Sword Of Damocles[…]

The Pro Indy Media

Posted on by Barrheadboy

Last night the magnificent Phantom Power had advanced screenings of his latest documentary Beyond Brexit. The quality and amount of content he has produced in favour of Scottish Independence is quite breathtaking. There can be no praise high enough for his contribution to the independence cause. I would also commend the ISP for their recent Read more about The Pro Indy Media[…]

Plausible Deniability

Posted on by Barrheadboy

Yesterday the Independence movement had a rare victory of sorts. Drew Hendry wrote himself into the hearts of the YES support by fighting back against the obfuscation and arrogance of the imperial English Parliament. The headlines in the unionist media shout about an SNP MP trying to remove their sacred mace and disrupting their procedures. Read more about Plausible Deniability[…]

Time Waits For No Man or Woman.

Posted on by Barrheadboy

It wasn’t until 1928 that women under the age of 30 were actually given the legal right to vote in the UK. That is the time when the limited United Kingdom democracy as we know it, began. It isn’t though real democracy, only a pretence. As long as we have an unelected Head of State Read more about Time Waits For No Man or Woman.[…]

Steadying The Ship.

Posted on by Barrheadboy

I have come out of the weekend in much better spirits than I was on Friday night. So many things happened over the weekend that have lifted my spirits. I can see the good times returning. I want to concentrate on some of those matters, the elections to the NEC and that of National Office Read more about Steadying The Ship.[…]

Five Days of Christmas.

Posted on by Barrheadboy

I have been blessed with two children and four grandchildren. I have, like so many Scots before me been cursed by my family leaving Scotland in search of a better life. They have found that better life in Dubai. My family enjoy a far greater standard and quality of life there than they would ever Read more about Five Days of Christmas.[…]
