GRASSROOTS campaign machine Believe in Scotland launched the second edition of Scotland the Brief to activists in Glasgow this week.
A sold-out crowd attended the event, getting their hands on the first 2023 edition of the policy handbook. The launch was held at Glasgow’s newest events venue, The Haberdashery, and everyone with a ticket received a copy of the book. All the money raised from the ticket sales was put back into the campaign.
The speaker for the evening, Gordon MacIntyre-Kemp, co-founder of Believe in Scotland (BiS) and chief executive of Business for Scotland, welcomed the audience with the organisational promotion videos, which featured photos of the 127 affiliated Yes groups campaigning. One woman sat beside me said with delight: “Oh, that’s me!”
