Farage knows how to be the disruptor. Scotland's cause needs to become a bigger, better disruptor than Reform UK.

Here’s the thing! The arithmetical rationale of Alba Party’s election strategy is calculated on the basis of the numbers as they were prior to the rise of Reform UK.

The Farage factor

A couple of interesting points arise from today’s edition of A Proud Malcontent. Probably more than a couple. But there are two that I want to mention here.

Much as I delight in the humiliation of that odious individual, my glee is tempered by awareness that the coloniser has never had difficulty finding people willing to take on the role of England's Viceroy in Scotland. Such a cornucopia of rogues in a nation!

Realists know that the election and electoral fortunes of the parties are totally irrelevant since the independence movement doesn’t have a horse in this race. https://peterabell.scot/2025/09/05/no-comfort/ #ScottishUDI #ManifestoForIndependence #NewingtonResolution

No comfort

Scottish nationalists like me are left with only the hope that Scotland’s cause survives the SNP leadership’s betrayal and the abject failure of Alba Party to step into the breach.

In the 2021 Holyrood election, over 2,600,000 votes were given to pro-independence parties. These voters are the people that should sign the petition.

The Saltire represents the nation and people of Scotland – nothing more. It is, in any context, a simple statement of identity.

The British state's asserted veto on the exercise of our right of self-determination has effect only because our own political leaders give it effect.

This is treachery.

Take back our government!
Take back our parliament!
Take back our nation!
