An Open Letter to Mark Carney Prime Minister of Canada
At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Sovereignty Party in Scotland the entire delegates present agreed to send a message of fraternal, cordial greetings and congratulations on your speech to the Assembled Dignitaries in Davos.
Dear Mark Carney,
Thank you sincerely for your brave, spirited and erudite speech at Davos. Your determination to assert Canada’s position in response to Donald Trump’s blatant verbal attacks on Canada and Greenland and their respective Sovereignty, Greenland as a protectorate of Denmark is commendable and necessary. Your passionate, obstinate and insurmountable standpoint is exemplary in the current impasse and for an indeterminate future.
You may, or may not, be aware that Scotland’s own Sovereignty was bartered away in 1707 to England by a combination of Scotland’s own aristocracy and Parliamentarians.
A compensation of £30,000 being paid by England to be divided amongst what Robert Burns, our National Poet, described as a “Parcel of Rogues in a Nation.” This was because a Scottish expedition to Panama, known as the Darien Expedition, had spectacularly failed and bankrupted the Scottish Exchequer.
318 years later that situation still exists. We are suborned to Westminster and are reduced by having our Puppet Parliament in Edinburgh and having only 59 MPs in London out of 650. Neutered to do anything not sanctioned by our masters in West monster and impotent to effect major change. This power politics.
One would think that the so called “Independence” parties would work to regain our Sovereignty granted by the Pope (the UN of the day) in 1320 but one of them, the SNP, advocates membership of the EU and the other, EFTA, both of which would entail massive surrender of our Sovereignty.
A referendum following a democratic vote should be a minimum requirement after campaigns of information and decisions made by the Sovereign People. They, and they alone being the Sovereign body in terms of the Declaration of Arbroath unlike the English model, The Crown in Parliament.
We need to “Get off our Knees” and take the “Sign out of the Window.”
Thank you again.
Andrew MacDonald
Deputy Leader for the Executive Committee of the Scottish Party SOVEREIGNTY
(Note: Brian Nugent is the party’s local candidate at the forthcoming election to the Scottish Parliament).
