) that covers the misdirection of those – and there are many of them – who believe the nonsensical claims, often repeated in political discourse, that Scotland needs to negotiate its way towards. The fact is that the Scottish people are sovereign and consequently no negotiation is required with anyone else, including England, on our journey to that goal.
That is where Salvo comes into play. Salvo is a non-political organisation with the main aim of restoring Scotland’s constitution and it is free to join. If necessary, they are quite prepared to go to the International Court of Justice in The Hague with a list of flagrant breaches by English governments of the international Treaty of Union between Scotland and England of 1706/7.
I must add that I look forward to Mr Anderson’s letters and normally agree with almost all he writes and am sure we could have some interesting discussions if we met.in the Scottish Parliament and now director of the John Smith Centre at the University of Glasgow, pontificating about the need for better standards in public life.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
