Whether you like it or not the term colony is a legal definition and not an aggregate of characteristics you or others decide to agree on. Whether you like it or not without an operative treaty - without an executed partnership agreement- the only possible legal definition of Scotland’s status is dependency or colony.
History written by dissenters from the occupation narrative was still being challenged when last I looked. And you surely don’t mean to suggest that the courts of an accused state are competent to determine its guilt or otherwise in a question of purely international law - an accusation of colonialism?
But I’m sure you will be delighted to hear that we are steadily moving the question to the proper forum, that of international law and you may be interested to know that a growing number of influential, international jurists agree with our argument: Scotland cannot ‘separate’ from a state it never joined, cannot separate from the only state which survived the ‘union’, England. It can only remove a longstanding, unlawful foreign subjugation.

interesting take?

[Lloyd Quinan @QuinanLloyd]

The historical evidence from Scotland’s nuclear facilities Chapelcross and Douneray would suggest the long term effect on the local and national economies was negative in first wave nuclear ,second wave ,Torness, Hunterston A+B have confirmed that there was little or no economic benefit locally or nationally for Scotland.

Gillian Martin appeared to offer so much when first elected , alas another disappointment.

[Sara Salyers @SSalyers2]

The why and how of the one prerequisite of Scottish independence:-
1. Independence is the condition of being an internationally recognised, sovereign state.
2. Recognition is granted through the U.N. to new states established through an internationally lawful process or states resuming their former sovereignty as with unlawfully colonised territories. (Colonisers like to pretend their colonised peoples were too backwards ever to have existed as sovereign states & they generously helped them to become modern, civilised & capable of democratic self-government! So they like to substitute the word secession for liberation even though no territory can secede from a state it was never lawfully a part of. (That includes Scotland.)
3. Westminster, the purely English Parliament by another name (despite what jurists like Cooper, Walker and Campbell believed), is the colonising legislator. It will never let Scotland negotiate an exit from this pretendy union.
4. Also, while Scotland is internationally understood to be part of a lawfully constituted state, that state’s right to ‘territorial integrity’ trumps any right of Scotland’s to leave it. Any Scottish declaration of independence would be formally contested by England/UK & its allies, leaving us as a ‘non state actor’ - *not* independent. Frozen.
5. But the right to self determination of a colony removes the right of states to maintain territorial control & to call that integrity.

These are the facts. So where does this leave Scotland?

6. One escape route: if the union is a fiction, the treaty inoperative & the territory of Scotland not part of the territorial integrity of England-posing-as-UK, we have no need of Westminster agreement to claim the justice that is our due & to restore the sovereign state of Scotland unlawfully annexed in 1707. BUT we must convince the international community/the UN of this right & ensure it is formally recognised before we attempt to exercise it through a democratic vote & declaration unless we want to end up like Kosovo.
7. Liberation Scotland is well down the path of obtaining that recognition - with much still to do & no support whatever from politicians pretending to want independence when it’s time to get re-elected & at no other time. And in the teeth of the Brits & the USA & the colonial states of the EU. Read that again.

Just as England will never let us leave its grip, nor will its allies if they can help it. Scotland is too strategically important geographically. The integrity of the U.K. is too strategically important geopolitically.

8. What this means for independence is that you can whistle down the wind for it if you think you’ll get support from *any* of the above, no matter what you promise. You can paint more nuclear targets on Scotland, promise to support the utter corruption of the Ukrainian proxy war, write a cheerleading song for NATO - none of it will achieve a damn thing. They won’t permit Scottish independence let alone support it. We know this; we deal with their grey diplomacy within the U.N. structures in real time & as the geopolitical reality - not wishful thinking based on old certainties.
9. So what do we do?!! We need international support to get past the gate keepers (Brits/US/some EU states), trying desperately to ghost the facts and campaigns that will finally establish Scotlands status as a dependency/colony (a legal not an emotional identity) & make it impossible for a declaration of independence to be contested.

We’re getting that support from the global south & members of the non-aligned movement who have no doubt Scotland is a colony, who oppose the new empire of which NATO is the military arm & who want to see a just, equitable & peaceful world in which the people - not a powerful few - decide their own destinies. This is why Liberation Scotland will never betray these allies by backing the Western, corporate war based empire & why we are not ‘Independence Scotland.’ Since 2022 until we win.

For such a euro fan boy he really has a limited knowledge of the accession requirements, no Freeport’s no SEZ’s and definitely no environment destroying data centres or no entry. This dissembling is cynical at best.

[Sara Salyers @SSalyers2]

Now will you understand that Holyrood functions - willingly as well as legally - as the administrative arm of the colonial power in Scotland? Now will you see why they ignore the clear will of the people? And now will you see the pretence that the rhetoric of independence reflects anything but the need to be re-elected?

[Sara Salyers @SSalyers2]

You cannot love what you do not know. If you knew Scotland, her true history, her unique constitution and her centuries of common good statutes and provisions, (including an education system that ensured every Scot could get to enough education to read and write by the 1500s while boys got grammar school education in the burghs), if you knew the horrors of the so-called union (a forced treaty whose single kingdom was replaced by subjection of Scotland to a renamed English crown), if you knew what deserts were made where thriving communities once stood - burnt out by an occupation that covered every inch of this land, if you saw the terrible graveyards these places are and not your lovely treeless and sheep filled ‘wilderness’, if you loved the real Scotland and not your wee Brigadoon fantasy, you’d want to see her free and restored to her true identity. But you do not love Scotland. You can’t love something imaginary. Actually you are afraid of the real Scotland and so very clearly hostile to those who really do love her.
But you keep your ‘love’ of your made up colonial version of this nation. And we will go about freeing the real thing.

“On postcolonial theory, which also tells us of the “Manichaeism of colonial rule” (Fanon) in Scotland, where we see:
– a people in ‘colonial slumber’
– a fake national party (‘co-opted by colonialism’)
– a fake parliament (indirect rule, brings in oppressive and 'mystifying' laws)
– a fake ‘justice’ system, views the native ‘absent of values’
– colonial show trials, to rupture the independence movement
– all enabling the plunder of corporate colonialism to continue

Colonialism is far more than a dodgy national party elite – colonialism creates such an elite just as it creates all else in colonial society, including the poverty and inequality of the colonized.”
