We keep explaining the route. International law and lawyers confirm this. We are doing our part. Support would be great but we get zero and instead are dismissed and told we’re ‘nuts’ by figures whose self-certainty is breathtaking in the face of their terrifying ignorance and, worse, the utterly disastrous consequences of that ignorance. So we will do what we are doing to clear the road block. Once that happens where is the preparation which means we are rest to go? We can’t do it all. While the LSC fights alone to obtain. the international recognition that will legitimise a UDI and Salvo fights the violations of our legal rights here and abroad, where the hell is the rest of what needs to be a coordinated strategy? Where is a set of *publicly approved* policies, where is the government in waiting/civic convention that will be legally entitled to organise a referendum or declare independence based on a plebiscite, where is the public consultation on the form of democracy we will adopt to reflect popular sovereignty, or an interim constitution enshrining the ancient constitution of Scotland including all civil rights and limits on government overreach (as articulated in the Claim of Right)? None of that is being done. Lots of middle class voices setting out their visions but not a lot of reach out to the majority of working class Scots who have the most to win or lose from liberation and fundamental reform. You’d almost think that Liberation Scotland - Salvo and the Liberation Scotland Committee are the only people taking independence seriously.
