With guests Leah Gunn Barrett & David Younger from Respect Scottish Sovereignty.

The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) was adopted by the United Nations in 1966 and ratified …by the UK government in 1976. Article 1 of ICCPR states all people have the right of self-determination, and Article 25 states that all citizens have the right to take part directly in public affairs. Nearly 50 years later, the UK has not incorporated it into law.

Respect Scottish Sovereignty (RSS) is a grassroots movement to pressure MSPs to enact ICCPR into Scots law, just as they did for the International Covenant on the Rights of the Child. In August, RSS published an Open Letter to the First Minister that has attracted over 300 signatures and has recently submitted a petition request to the Holyrood public petitions committee, on which it is awaiting a response.

RSS will be organising local units around Scotland to remind MSPs that the Scottish People are Sovereign but lack the tools – direct political rights as guaranteed in the ICCPR – to exercise their sovereignty, and so must incorporate these internationally recognised political rights into Scots law.

INDEPENDENCE LIVE NEWS:

BSKY SOCIAL
Many Scottish independence supporters have now moved to BSky social media platform as an alternative to the platform formerly known as Twitter because of the perceived toxic environment. We have setup our own BSky account and so far it’s looking really good and we recommend it. We can also embed YouTube videos of our shows & events. TNT Show will always be embedded and pinned on BSky. We will still stream to former-Twitter but our interaction will be minimal.

https://bsky.app/profile/independencelive.net

YOUTUBE
We have over 10,000 subscribers on YouTube and we now consider that our main streaming platforms for all our online shows and the big events we cover although we do stream to others platforms: TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, former Twitter (for time being) & Twitch.

Please subscribe and help us grow the channel or for extra perks, become a channel member!
