 COMING SOON

Alba / Scotland is one of the three Gaelic nations. Deprived of self-government by the Act of Union in 1707, Scotland is progressing towards regaining its sovereignty with the re-establishment of the devolved Scottish Parliament after a popular vote.

We campaign for Scotland’s right to choose independence, its Gàidhlig language, and various other human rights, political and environmental issues.

“The fight for independence is on!”
