(THE MANIFESTO OF THE DISPOSSESSED: A RECKONING FOR WESTMINSTER)
To the "Rogues" in Westminster and the English MPs who treat Scotland as a Colony, not a Country.
For three centuries, you have hidden behind the yellowed parchment of the 1707 Act of Union to justify what can only be described as a century-long asset strip.
You speak of a "United" Kingdom, but your actions speak of a fraudulent takeover. You have treated our borders as a fence, and our natural resources as a buffet for a Treasury that is never full.
1. The Great Oil Robbery:
You spent the North Sea windfall before the ink was dry on the McCrone Report.
While Norway built a sovereign future for its children, you used Scottish oil to fund the deindustrialization of our towns, to prop up the City of London, and to pay for tax cuts that we never saw the benefit of.
You didn't invest in us; you mined us.
To take the wealth of one nation to pay the debts of another isn't "partnership"—it is theft on a grand scale.
2. The Myth of the Subsidy:
Stop your patronizing lectures about the "broad shoulders of the UK."
We are tired of being told we are "too poor" by the very people who have spent our inheritance.
You count every penny you "give" us in a block grant, but you never account for the trillions in energy, water, and talent you have drained out of our land to keep the lights on in Westminster.
You don't subsidize Scotland; Scotland bankrolls your failures.
3. Two-Tier Justice, One-Way Power:
We see your "two-tier" system. We see how laws are twisted and changed "at the time" to suit the London elite, while the voices of the Scottish people are treated as an inconvenience to be managed.
You only remember our names when you need our votes or our soldiers.
You claim "Reserved Powers" over our land, our sea, and our future—well, we reserve the right to call it what it is: Bullying.
4. No Reparations for a Stolen Future:
To those who demand reparations: look to the halls of Westminster.
Scotland owes no one a penny for the crimes of an Empire that exploited our own workers in the shipyards and mines.
If there is a debt to be paid, it is the Reparations Westminster owes to Scotland for the centuries of exploited wealth and the stolen potential of our people.
The "Union" is over when the consent is gone.
You have broken the contract. You have exploited the land.
You have lied about the books.
We are not "True Blue," we are not your "North British" territory, and we are no longer listening to the excuses of a system that is rigged from top to bottom.
Keep your "English Gold." We’ll take our Sovereignty.
