Independence isn't about walking away from our neighbours. It's about walking beside them as equals, working together to tackle shared challenges and building a future based on friendship, respect and cooperation. #SNP26

Independence isn't about turning our backs on our neighbours. It's about Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland working together as friends, partners and equals, each with the power to shape their own future. #SNP26

Westminster is fixated on harking back to the past. Let's leave them to it. We're focused on building and unleashing potential of our nation and all of its people. #SNP26

“An attack on one minority is an attack on us all.” Everyone deserves to live openly, safely and without fear of discrimination. Protecting the rights of minorities and standing up for equality matters for all of us, not just those directly affected.
