Big Media didn’t want you to see this campaign that highlights Westminster seizing Scotland's vast energy resources that are worth £16,000 to every man, woman & child in the country.
Beat the censors and share the message. It’s Scotland’s Oil.
Join ALBA:
We do not intend to sit at Westminster and play their game.
We will use all the time and resources available to us to help Scotland regain its independence as an immediate priority.
