Claim of Right, Act of Wrong: Is the Union a Fiction?

Описание: Is Scotland stuck in constitutional limbo - or is there another way forward?
In this episode of Richardson’s Rubicon, John is joined by Alex Thorburn, researcher for Salvo and Liberation Scotland, to explore a civic-led strategy for Scottish independence that bypasses Westminster and looks instead to international law and the UN Decolonisation Committee (C24).

We unpack Scotland’s historic legal position, from the Claim of Right to the Treaty of Union, and ask whether sovereignty was ever truly given away, or simply shelved. Alex explains how a non-party civic movement might press Scotland’s case internationally, in parallel with whatever path political parties pursue at Holyrood.

Along the way, we revisit moments when Scottish public pressure forced major U-turns:
❌ Fracking banned
❌ Nuclear waste dump plans scrapped
❌ Water privatisation decisively rejected

Could history repeat itself, this time with the Union itself?

🎧 Listen in for a thoughtful, occasionally cheeky dive into the possibilities of modern self-determination.
