Scottish Unionist Think Tank, A Force For Good, presents our 29th Saturday Street Stall. Director Alistair McConnachie says it's astonishing that "local panjandrums" such as the Welsh First Minister can "close the border" with England. If this sort of aggressive behaviour is allowed by the British Parliament, then do we even have "a United Kingdom" anymore? We should not be allowing the carve-up of our UK in this way. What happened to our basic right of freedom of movement!

Indeed, we seem to be losing lots of things which we previously considered part of our British Constitution, including the absence of accountability in Parliament! We speak about the changes in society, and in our "British characteristics" which seem to be happening as a consequence of the controls.

We need a rebirth of some of our "cultural conventions" which have been found historically in our song, poem and story and which are particular characteristics of the British.

We examine what is meant by "a case", and we quote from the best article we've seen so far on the matter.

At the start of the Covid Lockdown, we all agreed to "do our duty" for a few weeks, but it should all have ended after the Queen's broadcast. That was the perfect moment to get back to normal, but the politicians kept pushing it, and pushing it, and abusing our goodwill.

Why is Nicola rising in the polls? We point out that it is not difficult for her, when the media has elevated her into the central focus of our Scottish national life.

However, the United Kingdom is the Great Work of Time. And we cannot and must not allow it to be broken up so easily. In that regard, we don't accept that a majority of seats for the SNP/Greens, at a Holyrood election, is a sufficient mandate for a second separation referendum.

We speak about the importance of our Mandate for Unity, and we explain what, exactly, the SNP and the separatist parties would need to do if they were genuinely to claim "a mandate" for a second separation referendum. This is an important insight.

We report on our latest dealings with Twitter, after having been unjustly suspended from their platform on the incredible grounds of being a "fake account". We point out that our Twitter following of over 30,000 people was built up openly and for years; and even our Header picture featured 4 photos of our Director, Alistair McConnachie.

This coming week in British History features some fascinating material about the Union, Margaret Tudor, James VI, Nelson, and much more! Please check it out and please subscribe to our channel by clicking Subscribe and hitting the Bell for notifications.
