The time is now

Marking a most successful and united SNP conference, with an inspirational First Minister declaring that Indyref2 was definitely on, with or without permission from a broken Westminster, a packed and rapturous audience, hingin’ frae the rafters, clapped and roared their approval.

This was in stark contrast to a Unionist poll which spectacularly backfired. This new Survation poll, commissioned by Scotland in Union (a Tory pressure group) found that the SNP was on course to win at least 51 of the 59 scottish seats in a General Election. Another poll has revealed that the SNP have a 23 per cent lead for Westminster, a 24 per cent lead for Holyrood and a 26 per cent lead for European elections.

The time is now when we need to galvanise all SNP members, and those of other parties and none, to come together under the Yes banner and campaign for an independent Scotland run by the people who live, work in and love this rich and wellendowed land.
