ALBA Party have been launching candidates across Scotland since Rishi Sunak announced the General Election. I was delighted to welcomeAlong with Ash Regan, Alex has been travelling Scotland and the response has been good.. We believe that each and every election should be fought seeking a mandate for independence now that the referendum route to independence seems unlikely thanks to the extreme folly of asking the Supreme Court to rule on the matter.
For too long the Highlands have been subjected to national policies imposed by the UK and Scottish Governments. However, that threat has again been hanging over the hundreds of staff based in Gourock as well as the hundreds of staff across the ferry network that go to sea every day to serve communities on the Clyde and across the Hebrides.
Although this is a General Election many of the issues voters want to talk about are services they rely on. Regardless of whether they are devolved matters or reserved matters, the priorities of voters are what Alba Party are listening to and talking about.leaders, all men, taking part. Just to ensure that female voices are completely omitted from the broadcast they’ve also chosen not to have a woman oversee the proceedings.
This is indicative of a General Election campaign that to date has been reported through a British lens as opposed to the unique circumstances of Scotland.Although, unless they change their mind and issue an invite to Ash Regan , Alba will no doubt come out of the debate we aren’t included in well, because those that tune in will be left asking: “Is that the best Scotland has to offer?”.
