Yes campaign lessons… by Neil Scott What we knew about Kirkintilloch in 2011-14, was that it was a majority Yes for Independence town.

After our Yes group was split because of vituperative, entitled, monied Yessers trying to buy off the […]
Folks involved in the Radical Independence Campaign have been having some discussions relating to our attitudes towards the Scottish Parliament elections in May 2026, including (because it’s a supposedly “new” factor) the “left” party being set up by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana, its implications for Scotland, for Scottish self-determination, and for RIC. Corbyn was, […]
No, says Neil Scott. The Corbyn project/party is a split in a London based party (new New new Labour) built around a London based interim leadership. It has become necessary because of a shift in politics that has spiralled out of the control of liberals in England. “Nationalist” capital, via Farage’s empty vessel, has radicalised […]
By Indybag The Scottish Left coming together is both premature, and to this Indy-lefty, a failure.There have been rumblings of a new vehicle for the ex-Rise and the SWP rump over the past few months, with meetings, cries and whispers. The whispers have been so slight that they included only themselves, and a tiny group […]
By Neil Scott The SNP needs to be better. The SNP has to be more “SSP.” Hear me out. I have sleepless nights over the genocide in Gaza. I see no real solution coming about until Israel changes as a result of our collective actions, our collective push in the way YEARS of boycotting and […]
This is my initial analysis: “I’ve now had a bit of sleep and seen enough of the detail of results to form some observations from an SNP Left perspective: 1) given the disastrous starting background to the election for us the core SNP vote actually stood up pretty well at 30% – this wasn’t an […]
By Willie Miller’s Moustache Regardless of who you vote for on Thursday, might I just take a moment to congratulate and commend you for doing so. Anyone who has been maintaining an even superficial interest in BritPol over the last few weeks and chosen not to emigrate, self-immolate, join or start some obscure and isolationist […]

by Damien Donnelly While I’m well used to elections being preceded by a period of desperate on-the-hoof policy, from all sides, this coming UK general election seems especially to have thrown into stark relief how low we have sunk as a country. Where that’s most evident is, as always, in how minorities are being treated. […]
