THE MYTH OF VOLUNTARY UNION 2/2 It is of course a mirage trotted out by UK Gov whenever it needs to gaslight Scots, with no exit route defined. The truth is that Scotland was illegally annexed in 1707 & has been subject to colonial extraction by England ever since. UN recognition ends this racket!

THE MYTH OF VOLUNTARY UNION 1/2 Foulkes is unwittingly correct. The 'voluntary union' was first cited by UK Gov in 1954 Royal Commission on Scottish Affairs, stating “Scotland is a nation and entered into union with England as a voluntary partner and not as a dependency” - in response to Qs at UN

Under the UN Charter, UN General Assembly Resolution 1514 and the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties - a political arrangement concluded under duress and without the consent of the people is not a union. It is an annexation or a colonial imposition angrypict.substack.com/p/suspended-...

Suspended, Not Extinguished
An annexation that was never lawfully made, and never lawfully ended, is not history. It is a wrong still being committed.
