THE people of Scotland are the real “highest court in the land”, the Alba Party have said on the launch of their St Andrew’s Day Declaration, which pledges to “democratically challenge” anyone against Scotland’s “right of self-determination”.
Alba MP Neale Hanvey will today lead a St Andrew’s Day debate in the Commons in a bid to ramp up pressure on the UK Government on the issue of Scottish independence, after the Supreme Court blocked plans for indyref2 next year.
Alba’s St Andrew’s Day Declaration rejects the opinion of the court, which ruled that Scotland does not have recourse to claim the right to self-determination in its traditional sense because the country is not oppressed or colonised.
