Yours for Scotland
About Iain Lawson
Enjoyed taking part in this programme.
This week’s Through a Scottish Prism. BEAT THE CENSORS Sadly there are still some sites, fewer in number these days, who are intent in censoring posts from bloggers who do not slavishly follow the policies of one political party. They are opponents of the basic human right of Free Speech. Fortunately my readers can confound…
LIBERATION SCOTLAND
LIBERATION SCOTLAND THE ELECTIONS….WHERE WE ARE. I know people have been asking about these elections so I am writing a quick update to explain where we are in the process. Nominations for the Committee closed on the 22nd April. Since then an Independent panel have been examining the detailed questionnaire answered by each candidate and…
MY MESSAGE TO GRAEME McCORMICK
UPDATE GRAEME HAS NOW RESPONDED. MY MESSAGE TO GRAEME McCORMICK Like many I was very disappointed to learn that Graeme had withdrawn from the race for the SNP Leadership after amassing the required number of nominations. Obviously the SNP Leadership put a lot of pressure on him including direct talks between Graeme and John Swinney…
THIS WILL NOT BE GRAEME’S FIRST RUN IN WITH HQ AND THE NEC.
I have just got the news that Graeme has pulled out of contesting the election. I will leave him to explain what he was offered by John Swinney to do so. . I was going to publish this article shortly after he lodged his nomination. Still publishing it, just a bit earlier now! What follows…
MAY IS THE HOLIDAY MONTH
I will shortly be returning to Scotland but I am planning to ease up on the blog this month. I arrived in Florida on the 20th March and I have published articles virtually every day since but this month will be different. I plan to only publish a few articles in the first couple of…
SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS ABOUT ANY LEADERSHIP RACE
SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS ABOUT ANY LEADERSHIP RACE My first thought is will there be a leadership race? It seems to me that great attempts are being made to try and ensure no contest takes place. I can see the attraction, no need to discuss or debate policy differences, priorities etc. Then there is the expense,…
SHORT AND SHARP FROM BRIAN
From former SNP Group Leader on Renfrewshire Council Brian Lawson As an SNP member I never thought I would live to see the day that an embattled SNP First Minister would be writing begging letters, asking for support, to the Labour, Tory, Liberal, Green and even Tory party leaders while ignoring the potential support of…
Secrecy and Green Freeports PREPARE TO BE SHOCKED
by Alex Thorburn of the Salvo Freeports Group. Secrecy and Green Freeports The Westminster / Holyrood partnership to introduce “Green Freeports” to Scotland is a complete betrayal of the people of Scotland. The Conservative and Unionist Party last won a majority of Scottish MPs in the General Election held on 26 May 1955 and in the following 69 years their representation dwindled…
THE BURNING QUESTION..FREEPORTS
A guest article from Colette Walker, Leader of the ISP The Burning Question – Freeports ‘A week is a long time in politics’ is probably as hackneyed a phrase in politics as ‘football is a game of two halves’ is, in the beautiful game. But it’s none the less true for all that. Humza Yousaf…
The Prism Show after a busy week.

BEAT THE CENSORS Sadly there are still some sites, fewer in number these days, who are intent in censoring posts from bloggers who do not slavishly follow the policies of one political party. They are opponents of the…
