In 2014, we all made a judgement call about what was best for the future of Scotland. The majority of people in the country decided that the best outcome was to stay as part of the UK.
The reasons for this are varied and many are still of the same opinion. Nonetheless, it is irrefutable that, since the first Scottish independence referendum in 2014, things have changed.
Above all things, promises about the future of Scotland within the UK have been broken. Government in Scotland has also delivered positive outcomes for the people of our nation.
For all former No voters, this ought to be more than enough cause to reconsider the merits of independence. For many, it is reason enough to move from No to Yes.
This is a movement for those who are former No voters who have changed their minds and want to be part of the independence movement. This is a movement, too, for those undecided on the issue of Scottish independence and want to find out more about Scotland’s potential. It is also a movement for life-long Yes voters who want to reach a hand of friendship to those reconsidering independence.
This is a movement open to all. Welcome.
Let’s turn Scotland from No to Yes.

I get why press think Salmond’s voice is relevant but, to the modern indy movement he barely registers. I joined SNP *4 years* after he stood down as FM. The 60-70% support for indy from young people (now proportionally largest group) is progressive, inclusive, pro-EU unlike him. twitter.com/BBCGaryR/statu…
“I say to the rest of my unionist friends across the political spectrum: it is simply not good enough to say that this question was resolved in 2014. A glimpse at any newspaper in the last nine years will show you that. Fingers must come out of ears.” twitter.com/StewartMcDonal…
Some thoughts from me in @TheScotsman on the March SNP conference. Any strategy on independence must be flexible, rooted in a keen understanding of public opinion and appreciate the need for loser’s consent. With the courage to lead generously, we can win. scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…
Persuasion. This remains central to the independence cause. Another reason for independence has today been made clear: democracy is at stake in the UK. Independence must therefore be a legitimate expression of democratic values. twitter.com/JohnRentoul/st…
This is truer: “Fundamentally our job in the independence movement today is the same as it was yesterday: to persuade the people of Scotland that independence is the way forward”
While you don’t need to have travelled through space & time to see that we are better off as an independent country, it’s good to know The Doctor has seen Scotland’s future first hand & is coming out for Yes on #ScottishIndependence. #DrWho thenational.scot/news/23086771.…
