Join Salvo

Help Restore Our Constitution 

Join Salvo and campaign with thousands of others who want to secure Scotland’s self-determination and restore our constitution.

Join Salvo

We have more than 5,000 activists spreading the word about the Claim of Right and asking people to sign the Edinburgh Proclamation to join Liberation Scotland.

If you feel strongly about Scotland’s self-determination and believe that it’s in Scotland’s hands and no-one else’s, then Join Salvo.

On the Join Salvo application form you’ll also get the opportunity to join a Salvo Campaign Hub. Choose one that’s near you and join in the campaigning going on  in your area. We even have one for those of you who no longer live in Scotland – it’s called Diaspora.

We are dedicated to restoring Scotland’s national, constitutional and historic rights as set out in our interim constitution.

Our mission is to bring the Scottish people together again and awaken them to the fact that Scotland’s constitutional future is not dependant on any political deal with a Westminster government. Instead, we will make them aware of the Claim of Right, which was not destroyed by the Treaty of Union but was a critical part of the UK’s creation and remains the lawful guarantee of Scotland’s deliberately hidden constitution.

Familiarise yourself with the Claim of Right and the Scottish Constitution. They’re right there in our Resources section along with a whole lot of stuff on how the Union came to be and why the Claim of Right is our ticket out. Then join your local Hub Facebook group – they’re listed below.

Joining Salvo means that you get to do something again about Scotland’s constitutional future. As a Salvo member, this means just one thing: getting as many people as you can to sign the Edinburgh Proclamation and swell the numbers of the Scottish Liberation Movement.

Remember, Salvo isn’t a political organisation, which means we don’t go around promoting or denigrating our independence-supporting political parties. Please read here why We Are Salvo.

Salvo Campaign Hubs

Salvo is a campaigning organisation – we are the campaigning arm of Liberation Scotland. To focus and maximise our campaigning efffort, everyone in Salvo is part of a local Campaign Hub. Usually, that’s the hub in your area, but you’re free to join any one. We even have a Diaspora hub for those of you who don’t live in Scotland any more.

There are 18 Hubs that cover the entire country, plus one for outside Scotland. These are:

Argyll & Bute (email)
Berwickshire (email)
Borders (email)
Central East (email)
Central West (email)
Dumfries (email)
Dunbartonshire (email)

Fife (email)
Glasgow (email)
Highlands & Islands (email)
Inverclyde (email)
Lanarkshire (email)

Each hub will have their own page on the Salvo website where local Salvo Hub news and events can be updated. Each hub also has access to a Facebook Group Page.

The Claim of Right

Scotland is an independent country in a union with England, a union that is governed by the 1707 Treaty of Union. That treaty has a get out clause for Scotland called the Claim of Right, an act of the old Scottish Parliament. The Claim of Right is a fundamental condition of the treaty that preserved in all time coming the sovereignty of the Scottish people.

We all need to get that message out to everybody in Scotland. We need to get them to sign the Edinburgh Proclamation and build the Scottish Liberation Movement.

Join the Scottish Liberation Movement

On 1st September 2022, Salvo proclaimed Scotland’s constitutional sovereignty, as embodied in the Claim of Right Act, and invited our civic and business communities to join with members of the public to urgently recall the Convention of the Estates, in the form of a modern, Scottish National Congress.

Now it’s time to get to work. Because to do all of that and to support our case to the UN and the international community, we need to build popular support through a Scottish Liberation Movement.

The Liberation Movement will enable Scotland to ignore the weasel words of the Westminster Government that we need their permission to regain our independence. We do not.

The Scottish National Congress

On 1st September 2022 we invited members of the public, our civic and our business communities to recall the Convention of the Estates. This will be known as the Scottish National Congress.

The Scottish National Congress will be an organisation devised, organised and operated in the most open democratic manner. People will not be invited to join, instead membership is open to all and all are invited to apply to serve to genuinely reflect a true cross section of Scottish society.

Membership of the Congress itself shall be by ballot and rotation. An important role of the Congress will be to examine issues of national importance where expert witnesses will be called and matters put to a vote to determine the outcome of the Congress’s debate.

The Scottish National Congress will be the living embodiment of the sovereignty of the Scottish people in action.

The Case of the Missing Constitution

An irreverant take on how AV Dicey obfuscated, hid and outright lied about the Treaty of Union for the UK parliament to ignore Scotland’s constitution

A Real and Ancient Constitution

A timeline along the path of Scotland’s ancient constitution, from pre-medieval times to the moment when the Union suppressed our national identity and with it our unique constitution.

The Treaty Bites Back

The forgotten condition of the Treat of Union – what every Scot should know. Plus, Dicey demolished: even if you’ve never heard of him, by the end of this you’ll be bilin’ at what he – and by extension the UK govt – did to keep our ancient birthright from us – and why.
