WHAT THE PAPERS WILL NOT PRINT
Mock up of a blank Daily Newspaper with empty space to add your own news or headline text and pictures.

This is a letter one of my readers sent to three Scottish newspapers. All of these papers published articles authored by Unionist Old MacDonald that were, to be polite, blatant Unionist propaganda, guff for short but block pro Indy voices being given a voice. Why does the SNP Government give them millions of pounds when they act against our interests?



Dear Editor,

Unionists Ian Murray MP and Alex Cole Hamilton MSP are frantically trying to talk down Scotland’s offshore wind potential to deter inward investment into Scotland.

They dispute the oft-repeated statistic that Scotland has 25% of Europe’s offshore wind potential.[1] So naturally they don’t want people to know that this is an underestimate. An EU Commission report reveals that based on current projected installation capacity, Scotland is on course to deliver nearly half of Europe’s offshore grid supply by 2035.[2]  This represents over 55% of the entire offshore grid potential in the Mediterranean Basin.[3]


Unionists are in a panic because they know if the truth were widely known, their hollow arguments that Scotland can’t prosper outside the UK would literally be blown away. With Scotland’s natural resources owned by the Scottish people, not Westminster, Scotland could lead the world in offshore wind energy production.

Downplaying Scotland’s renewables wealth mirrors the UK Government’s suppression of the 1970s McCrone Report, which revealed Scotland’s vast North Sea oil and gas potential. The UK plundered Scotland’s oil and gas, squandering it on tax cuts and the mass privatisation of energy, while nearby Norway used their energy bounty to create a Sovereign Wealth Fund for their people which is today worth over $1 trillion. 

It’s beyond absurd that Scots are fuel poor when surrounded by energy riches. The second great rip-off has started. Scotwind was vastly undersold and Scottish renewables are being cabled to England with no compensation for the Scottish people. To end this exploitation, we must end this union. 

Yours sincerely,

Leah Gunn Barrett


BEAT THE CENSORS

Unfortunately some pro Indy websites are not pro Indy. They are pro SNP sites and ban any content on their sites which dares to question the SNP or the SNP leader. They seek to censor discussion and free expression. Fortunately many of my readers share the articles on Yours for Scotland frequently and because of this the attempted censorship is proving ineffective. This support is very important and I thank everyone who share and protect freedom of speech and choice.

Yours for Scotland Welcome to my long-awaited blog page. Friends have been urging me to do this for years but the technology frightened me. Now thanks to Dave Beveridge and my oldest daughter Laura I am finally in business. This blog will be totally pro-Independence for Scotland and I hope to comment on all the topical issues of the day using a bit of humour and controversy wherever I can. I hope you find it an entertaining and informative read and will recommend it to your friends. www.yoursforscotlandcom.wordpress.com
