(Men, women, our time has come. For too long the English have crushed our dreams, stifled our hopes and made a mockery of our practices. Now, a union of socialists, communists and liberals destroyed the empire and left the isles in ashes.
Our time is now. The Indians are free, as are the Jews and Irish. But what of the Scottish? Proud sons and daughters of the Picts, the Celts. Of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce? Are we to be left as slaves to English taskmasters, who drive our spirit and hopes into the ground?
No! We shall be free. For now and forever! This union has failed and now it is time to tear it apart.
Devolution! Return the Scottish Parliament to us! )
