Thanks a lot for an excellent article which confirms that grassroots is the way to go. Scottish Self-Determination and Independence activists take note ! Right now I’m aware of two grassroots start-ups - RespectScottishSovereignty.scot (RSS) and the Angus / Highlands Pylon campaigns - but I’m betting your article will encourage other movements to take the plunge. The importance of targeting the Big Issue is highlighted. Scotland’s Big Issue at the moment is to implement the International Covenant on Civil & Political Rights (ICCPR) - a process which is entirely within Holyrood’s power.

I was saddened but not surprised that your friend was somewhat equivocal regarding the Scottish dimension of the Snowdrops parents and their marvelous campaign, but that old UK thing, as you'll know, is widespread. Another great piece from LGB and Dear Scotland.
