"The Gracious Speech does not adequately address the demonstrated will of the Scottish people... to progress the cause of Scottish independence." 🏴#AlbaRising #indyref2 https://t.co/ul3P0ue5cz
This comes as the SNP's amendment to the Queen's Speech did not mention independence and called for changes to the English social care system. It is the Alba Party's belief that our MPs should be settling up at Westminster, not settling in.
