About this listen

Alistair McConnachie of Scottish Unionist Campaigning Group and Think Tank, A Force For Good, hosts our 30th Saturday Street Stall (24-10-20). We speak about the "shutdown" of the "border" between Wales and England, and how this flies in the face of the fundamental right of freedom of movement for all British citizens between all parts of the United Kingdom. How can we have an "Internal Market" for goods, if we don't have internal freedom of movement? Will the British Parliament stand up for freedom of movement or is this another civil liberty and plank of our Union which is at risk of falling as a result of the Carry-On Covid Pantomime?We look at the Polls which appear to suggest the separatists are in the lead. We urge people to remember:1. Polls lead, as much as reflect opinion, so they must be understood as a black art.2. They are deliberately engineered to create talking points for the media, or for political tendencies to exploit. 3. Polls are but a snapshot in time, because;4. Voters move all the time in relation to information and circumstances.5. They are not reflections of a permanent position – but the media may try to pretend that they are.We must not be defeatist. Even if these polls were accurate, remember they can be turned around. In 2014, the nationalists came from behind at 20% to 45%. That means we can come from 42% to 67%. And we must do so, for if there was ever another referendum we would need to win it by more than we won it last time, in order to "put it to bed".What can be done? We must emphasise our Mandate for Unity. https://www.aforceforgood.uk/single-post/holyrood-cannot-deliver-indyref-mandateWe speak about the extent to which some Social Media companies are abusing their position at this time of the American election – and how AFFG may have got caught up in a possible suspension spree.
