Campaign for Scottish independence launched

The campaign to break up Britain today urged a million Scots to sign a new declaration of independence but admitted it will not provide any details of how a separate country would operate.

Speaking at the launch of the ‘Yes Scotland’ campaign in Edinburgh, a series of left-wing politicians and celebrities outlined their hopes that a more “equal society” would emerge if they won the referendum planned for autumn 2014.
They urged people to sign their ‘Yes Declaration’, which states independence would be “fundamentally better for us all” because only then would “Scotland’s future be in Scotland’s hands.”
Alex Salmond, the SNP leader, estimated that a million names would indicate enough support to win the referendum but none of the campaign leaders would provide details of what sort of country the signatories were endorsing.
A senior campaign figure said it is asking people to sign the document without knowing any of the facts about separation because it is focused on winning over “hearts and minds”.
