[Marxism] New SSP Motion On Scottish Independence And Internationalism
The following motion will be proposed at the next Scottish Socialist Party
Conference in the new year.
MOTION FOR CONFERENCE
Conference reaffirms the Party's commitment to waging the struggle for
Scottish independence under the banner of anti-imperialism, internationalism
and
republicanism. As a socialist party in the tradition of John Maclean and James
Connolly we uphold the aforementioned principles, and in so doing recognise the
common enemy of all humanity at this point in our history as US imperialism
and its allies.
We reaffirm our commitment to the international struggle against US
imperialism and its determination to force neoliberalism to every corner of the
planet.
Standing in solidarity with the people of Iraq, Latin America, Africa, and
oppressed peoples and communities everywhere, we understand that a key ally of
US imperialism in the North East Atlantic is the British State, formed in the
interests of a ruling class comprising English, Welsh, Irish and Scottish
members, and which denies genuine self-determination to the four nations on
these
islands.
Therefore, even whilst working with non-socialists on the issue of
independence, we recognise that the minimum demand necessary to ensure that
independence
must be for a republic, with the abolition of all crown powers and the
monarchy; and a withdrawal from NATO and the closure of all imperialist
military
bases on Scottish soil.
As part of this campaign we seek allies amongst the working class and
anti-unionist democrats in England, Wales and Ireland who also understand the
need to
break up the British State in the interests of the working class throughout
these islands and all engaged in struggle against US imperialism
internationally.
END.
