On St Andrew's Day the 30th November 2022
Divisive politics is harming Scotland and ordinary people are suffering. We need an alternative to the SNP and not a Scottish version of a Westminster party. We need representatives who can UNITE us to answer the independence question, or make the UK work for our Country.

UNIFY for an Independent Scotland
The Unify Party Scotland will have more to say over the next few months regarding what is being promoted to voters as the truth and the endless empty promises and failures of the SNP.
Frustration with out of touch politicians, the cost of living, jobs, our economy, housing, our NHS and immigration are key issues affecting Scottish voters. - Add the continued misinformation and it's no wonder our Country NEEDS CHANGE and voters want a (NEW PARTY) to the challenge "THE SNP"
The question that must be answered by Scottish voters in 2024
Let's set the scene and ask the question and then put the case for each argument. - Does Scotland still have the desire to be independent? - Is the view of the majority t Scots vote for a New Party who will FIGHT for it?
Please read on..
UNIFY asks - THE BIG QUESTION!
United Kingdom or Independence
Independence or remain in the United Kingdom, we address the elephant in the room. We have debated this question for decades, we had a referendum and the decision was to remain yet Scotland has gone backwards. - Thank you SNP.
Unify has a clear "SCOTLAND FIRST" position. We wish to UNIFY Scotland (not divide it) and bring together candidates who will best represent us. Whether Scotland wants to remain in an independent United Kingdom, or truly wants independence. - Local champions who understand their constituency issues can begin to transform the Scottish Parliament!
SNP - RIP!
The SNP pay lip service but they will never be able to deliver independence, and they know it. They know their support is dwindling, so use Brexit as a foil. Scottish voters have no wish to be dragged back into the EU - This is NOT Independence!
They are an inept Government who have abdicated the reason that gave them the mandate of the people and have pursued a neo-liberal woke agenda. They have badly managed the public purse and our public services. The SNP have become an embarrassment to Scotland, they have taken the Scottish public for fools for too long - And it's Time They Went!
Scotland, Europe and the United Kingdom, the facts
We voted to stay in the EU say the SNP, so we will ask this question. - Why would the Scots the greatest nation of innovators, entrepreneurs and inventors want to stay within a failing institutions dwindling market and be governed by unelected technocrats, when we can trade with new growing economies in a global marketplace. What kind of Independence is that?
The EU is one of the worst performing economic areas in the world, economically it is a sinking ship. - History will prove that the United States of Europe project was a failure, as more countries realise their national pride and their own identities is more important when all they wanted was a common market.- We believe in the next decade the EU collective will fail!
A devolved Scotland within the UK is FREE of Europe although we must complete the Brexit job. The UK is set to become a major player trading with (growing) economies in a global marketplace. We want Scotland to benefit from that. - Unify has a Scotland FIRST agenda but with stronger Scottish negotiators demanding a better deal for Scotland from Westminster.
The Scots are a proud nation and that is well-known but the majority are not seperatists. The SNP have failed us, their independence lies tie us into being ruled by others and that is further away than it ever has been. - FACT: 70% of our trade is with the rest of the UK. If we leave, we lose. If we stay, new trade deals will see Scotland grow and PROSPER!
"Scotland is already Independent as part of the United Kingdom"
Unify's Independence Question
Unify Scotland asks the question - What kind of independence is to be had by going cap in hand to unelected bureauocrats in the EU and have them rule over us. What kind sovereignty is this for a new and proudly independent Scotland going forward?
A Scotland who are ready to become a Nation Once Again?
Where we would find we are again ruled by foreign nationals and foreign courts - Unable to broker our Free Trade Agreements and shackled inside a federalist European Union?
Independence and a new economy
Global trade and being able to negotiate trade deals has always been important and no more so than if we were to gain independence.
However while still important the European Union is not what it once was, in fact it is a shrinking economy. Scotland needs to be proactive to grow and form trade deals with new expanding economies, not go backwards and become lost in the European Union. Becoming part of the European Free Trade Association [EFTA] would give us an advantage that would NOT be afforded us if we went back into the European Union.
"Scotland is better placed as part of the United Kingdom"
Independence by a better route
Should there be a way to control migration quotas Unify would favour joining Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland as a European Free Trade Association [EFTA] member which would allow us access to the European Economic Area (EEA) to trade in Europe whilst pursuing trade relations with third countries beyond Europe. EFTA has 30 Free Trade Agreements FTAs covering 41 countries and territories outside the EU.
EFTA rules enables goods, services, capital, and people to move freely about the EEA in an open and competitive environment, a concept referred to as the four freedoms. With continued trade with England it could become the Unify Party preferred route.
European Free Trade Association
The joint negotiation of free trade agreements (FTAs) with partners outside the European Union (EU) allows EFTA to actively pursue its objective of creating trade opportunities for its operators and generate growth in member economies.
The Need for Political Transparency
Should the people of Scotland vote for the Unify Party and the Scottish electorate decide that they still require clarification on the independence question. Unify Scotland in line with their people-led credentials would revisit the EU debate.
We would propose a single agenda National Referendum be held to ask the Scottish Electorate this simple question:
Do you want to be back in the European Union?
YES or NO?
Politics has to change, for the future of our children!
People-Power for Scotland
Scotland needs to create a true People Party, a party that reflects politics for today. - Something that the majority of people are searching for. - Something that people can believe in and will want to support. - Something that everyone can be a part of, invest in, or represent.
Not because of the school they went to, or who they know. We need Local Champion candidates who know their communities. The importance of regeneration in Scottish towns, local economies and local job creation cannot be underestimated. - We need to transform the Scottish Parliament!
"Politics is easy if you stay true to your word and the people who elected you! - Jim McIlroy"
The Dangers Ahead
Labour, Not Again!
Labour may (win in England) but Scotland must send a message that the majority of voters want politics TO CHANGE!
Be aware of Labour becoming the benefactor at the ballot box for if that were to happen we would still be ruled by Westminster. Remember before the SNP, Labour were in power in Scotland and nearly ruined our Country, I remember it (all too well) in my home town of PAISLEY. - We need a SCOTTISH PARTY, not a Westminster (second-team) doing the will of Sir Keir Starmer.
The Conservatives - No thanks
My personal experience of the Conservatives, whether in Scotland or England is: - They are everything you think they are, and everything you do not want them to be.
This Westminster Government has let the Country down and there is now an irreparable disconnect. - Immigration is causing a 'people explosion' affecting the lives of our citizens, taxes are crippling small business. The cost-of-living, the NHS, people using foodbanks and energy costs at unacceptable levels, while utlility companies pay dividends to their shareholders. People no longer support this government and we intend to debunk (your priorities are our priorities). - We say they're not!
Political change is happening
Look around us: - All over Europe (new parties) are WINNING elections, and deposing established parties who have been found wanting, serving their own interests, or the interests of corporations, banks, financial institutions and NOT the people.
Things are changing, our Country needs to change. We need political reform, we need a new party that believes in Scottish and British values and represents Great Britains electorate.
Vote Unify and get that Reform!
Immigration, asylum and illegal migration
While we all understand how immigration can benefit any country, we are at a tipping point. We are a small island and we simply cannot cope any longer with the numbers crossing the channel or by other means. Bogus asylum clams and illegal migration makes a mockery of our Courts and this needs to be dealt with. We need to introduce a much talked about points-based system at the earliest possible date for everyone who wishes to come and we must prioritise the deportation of those who should not be here.
Unify believes that politics should no longer be elitist, or determined by manufactured party division. - That it's time for a long overdue change. - It's time to put 'real people' who understand local economies and local job creation in place, if we are to achieve true levelling-up. - The Unify Party stands for Scotland first, Common Sense Politics in a 21st Century Scotland!
Together a Unified Scotland can change Scottish politics for the BETTER!
"Support UNIFY and help deliver a new era of people-led politics for everyone in Scotland."
"The SNP has divided our people and our communities and it has NOT delivered on its mandate, so it is time for SCOTLAND TO COME TOGETHER and DECIDE on "OUR FUTURE". The CONSERVATIVES will lose to LABOUR in the General Election and if that happens SCOTLAND will suffer (MORE OF THE SAME POLITICS) or worse for another 5-years under a Westminster Labour Party. - Scotland is ALREADY INDEPENDENT if we have the faith in OURSELVES and VOTE FOR IT!"
