Five Election Voices

Voice 1: ​Richie Venton, representing the Scottish Socialist Party, delivers a passionate call to action for the upcoming elections. He urges voters to choose the SSP on the list vote (the peach-colored form) to elect a team of “socialist fighters” dedicated to representing the millions, not the millionaires.

 

Voice 2: Maggie Chapman emphasizes that Scotland is at a crossroads, facing a cost-of-living crisis and the immediate physical threats of the climate crisis. The Greens position themselves as the “radicals” necessary to make hope possible through bold action.

Voice 3: Graham Campbell outlines a strategic vision for the SNP to break the constitutional “logjam” by securing a majority, which he argues would force Westminster to grant a Section 30 order for an independence referendum and makes predictions for after the election…

Voice 4: Sam Hamad on his lifelong commitment to Scottish Independence, which he views as his election priority. He supports a strong Scottish Green vote to act as a progressive “anchor,” ensuring the SNP sticks to a radical social-democratic agenda. He expresses his deep distrust of Keir Starmer, specifically citing Labour’s foreign policy regarding the Middle East (Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran) as a deal-breaker.

Voice 5: Damien Donnelly outlines a shift in his political support toward the Scottish Green Party, driven by a belief that they are the only party offering a principled defense of the LGBTQ+ community against rising far-right influence.
