@MonicaLennon7 @Sunday_Mail @ScottishLabour You are having a laugh, I lived in Glasgow for 50 years under Labour, I worked for the Labour Council, taught in its clapped out schools. Labour ran the city into the ground, betrayed its female employees & left the city millions in PFI debt.

Is Scotland treated as an equal member of the Union by this current and previous British Governments?

[Scotland’s Story @80_mcswan]

I urge every Scot to retweet this, regardless of politics. The Edinburgh Agreement does not contain the phrase "once in a generation." Lab and the Tories keep repeating this lie. They think all Scots are stupid enough to fall for their propaganda.

Here John Swinney Let Me Help You: How to Convince the United Nations Not to List Scotland as a Colony

You keep governing as if colonisation were an outdated word, as if Scotland’s subordination to Westminster were a mere administrative arrangement instead of a textbook case of colonial dependence. You act as if the right to self-determination were a privilege, not a right, & you avoid the term “decolonisation” as if saying it might upset the colonial Foreign Office, the foreign policy arm of the English coloniser. So let me help you, John. Let me show you what the UN is looking at as it considers whether Scotland should be added to the list of Non-Self-Governing Territories (NSGT); in other words, the global list of acknowledged colonies. The process is already under way, since Liberation Scotland is active at the UN & showing evidence for the Special Committee on Decolonisation (C-24) as well as speaking & organising events at the UN headquarters in New York & Geneva.

The UN General Assembly Resolution 1541 (XV) of 1960 sets out three clear ways a territory can avoid being classified as colonised:

1. It becomes an independent state.

2. It freely associates with another state.

3. It fully integrates with another state on the basis of equality.

Let us see how Scotland performs.

1. Independence?
No. Westminster controls defence, foreign policy, the currency, energy, broadcasting, the constitution, Scottish resources,... Scotland cannot sign treaties or join international organisations; & cannot even hold a referendum without permission from the English state. The first condition collapses instantly.

2. Free association?
Free association requires the freedom to withdraw at will. When Scotland tries to leave, Westminster declares the act illegal. Freedom by permission is not freedom at all. The second condition fails entirely.

3. Integration on the basis of equality?
Equality means equal representation, equal sovereignty, mutual consent... Scotland has no independent voice in international law. It is represented abroad as “England” in countries representing over 3 billion people. Westminster controls Scotland’s wealth & policy while disguising colonial domination as partnership. There is no integration on equal terms. The third condition fails beyond repair.

Now, John, perhaps you are thinking you can still persuade the UN that Scotland does not meet the other tests for a NSGT. Let us examine those, because they are wonderfully inconvenient for you.

According to the UN, a NSGT is one that:

-Possesses a distinct people who are ethnically, culturally, or historically different from the administering power.

-Has a defined geographical territory with its own borders.

-Is under the administration of another power which governs it in matters of defence, foreign affairs, & ultimate political authority.

-Lacks the power to determine its own constitutional & international status.

-Has its resources exploited primarily for the benefit of the administering power (the English coloniser in our case).

Now let us apply those, shall we?

-Distinct people?
Yes, Scotland has its own legal system, education system, church, languages, historical identity... Scots are not English, although London insists on mislabelling them as such in every diplomatic forum & let's other nations do too. To deny that distinction, you would have to argue that centuries of separate statehood, law, culture, representations, emotions, ... are merely decorative. Good luck presenting that to the UN.

-Defined geographical territory?
Scotland has internationally recognised borders & maritime boundaries; even its own territorial waters. To deny this, you would need to argue that Scotland’s border (one of the oldest fixed frontiers in Europe) somehow does not exist. You could try redrawing it on a napkin for the Committee’s amusement.

Accusing Scots of “Anti-Englishness”: How English Colonial Propaganda, Digital Psyops and Information Warfare Attack Scotland’s Right to Self-Determination.
A Colonial Strategy to Silence Scotland’s Right to Freedom

Colonial rule has always relied on inversion. The oppressor presents himself as the injured party. The colonised are painted as irrational, hostile, or hateful for seeking freedom. In Scotland, this tactic has been reactivated. British state institutions, media outlets, and digital operators have reframed the demand for independence as a form of ethnic animosity. The accusation of “anti-Englishness” functions not as a defence of tolerance but as a mechanism of silencing. The goal is not to protect anyone from discrimination. The goal is to discredit the idea that Scotland has a right to self-rule.

This pattern is not new. Irish revolutionaries were portrayed as fanatics. Gandhi was treated as a dangerous subversive promoting anti-European sentiment. Algerians were described as irrational haters of France. The Mau Mau were dehumanised in British propaganda. South African resistance leaders were accused of inciting racial hatred. In every instance, the colonised were told that liberation efforts represented hatred rather than justice. Frantz Fanon noted that colonisers never acknowledge resistance as rational. Colonisers require the moral paralysis of their subjects. Shame replaces agency.

In Scotland, the same script is applied. The accusation of “anti-Englishness” is deployed not in response to violence or extremism, but to the act of speaking freely. Citizens who criticise the union are pathologised. Writers, teachers, artists, and campaigners are treated as threats. The demand for independence is moralised out of existence. The structure of power remains untouched while the voices challenging it are reframed as dangerous.

Expressions of Scottish anger are neither inexplicable nor unjustified. The record of English domination includes mass economic extraction, political subjugation, and cultural ridicule. Scottish history has been misrepresented, its economy mismanaged, and its voice marginalised. Public institutions systematically favour English narratives. The press often treats Scottish self-determination as backward. Scottish accents are mocked. Working-class Scots are stereotyped as ignorant or bitter. These are not isolated prejudices. These are artefacts of structural racism and colonial cultural control.

Even when the tone of independence movements is calm and reasoned, accusations still follow. (Anyway, Scots are allowed to be angry since they are colonised by England). The reason lies in the nature of the demand. Sovereignty challenges power. The claim to nationhood undermines imperial/colonial legitimacy. In response, England’s defenders weaponise language. They substitute moral accusation for political argument. They obscure history by invoking civility.

Digital technologies have intensified the distortion. Online disinformation campaigns attack Scottish national expression in real time. Public discussions attract troll accounts, bots, and coordinated misinformation. The moment Scottish sovereignty is mentioned, the noise begins. Replies fill with mockery, accusations, false data, and attempts to shift the narrative. This flood of hostility is not organic. Entire operations exist to shape perception and suppress support for decolonisation.

Unionist Tactics & Rules of Engagement

Unionist accounts rarely seek truth.

They seek control: of the narrative, of your attention, of your time.

Unmasking the Manipulation of Scotland’s 2014 Referendum. The @UN through its decolonisation mechanisms will prevent such manipulation.
The 2014 Scottish independence referendum has often been hailed by the English establishment as a triumph of democratic expression, a peaceful, decisive moment where the people of Scotland “chose” to remain in the 'United Kingdom'. Yet, this narrative collapses under even modest scrutiny. Behind the ceremonial surface of ballot boxes and televised debates lay a calculated system of structural manipulation: a media environment rigged by state broadcasters, an electoral franchise designed to dilute the Scottish voice, and a campaign of fear orchestrated at the highest levels of government and finance. What occurred was not an equal contest between competing futures, but a managed defeat, engineered to preserve Westminster’s colonial grip on Scotland under the guise of democratic legitimacy. Let's reopen the record to expose how the British state, through psychological warfare, economic coercion, and covert interference, ensured the survival of its shrinking Union by strangling the very principles it claimed to uphold.

[Christophe Dorigné-Thomson @thomsonchris]

1. The Rigged Playing Field: A Contest Between State & Citizen
In the aftermath of the 2014 Scottish independence referendum, significant concerns emerged regarding the integrity of the campaign environment through insidious forms of manipulation: psychological pressure, institutional interference, and information warfare. The informational and political ecosystem in which the referendum unfolded was heavily skewed in favour of the 'Union'. What took place was not a fair democratic contest between two constitutional visions, but rather a struggle between a grassroots national movement and the full coercive, financial, and communicative power of a centralised English state determined to preserve its territorial authority, its Scottish colony.
