On 18th September 2014... | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
..between the hours of 7am and 10pm... | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
..we had the power to change Scotland. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
On every street... | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
..in every city, village and town... | 0:00:34 | 0:00:35 | |
..hundreds of thousands of people, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
with hundreds of thousands of reasons... | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
..voted for their dream of a different country. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
Many of us wanted a Scotland free from Nato and Trident, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
a Scotland that acted as a global peacemaker, not a global policeman. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
But Scotland hasn't changed. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
And those who cried the loudest for change | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
were those who needed it the most. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:56 | |
People who stood up against the establishment. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
People who deserve respect. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
People who deserve a future. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
There is only one alliance dedicated to fighting for these people. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
An alliance that grew out of the movement for independence. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
Committed to equality and diversity. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
A socialist alliance that believes that those workers | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
who create the wealth deserve their fair share of it. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
For a ?10 minimum wage to guarantee a decent standard of living. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
An alliance that would tax the wealth hoarded by the rich. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
And invest in a just and environmentally sustainable future | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
for Scotland. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
There is so much more in Scottish politics | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
than what goes on in Holyrood. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
But we still need a diverse range of voices. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
A rainbow Parliament. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
To demand that our politicians keep to the vision of a new country | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
we shared during the referendum. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
The referendum showed us that Scotland could change. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
We believe that this country only moves forwards... | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
..when working people act together to make their voices heard. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
That's why I'm standing for RISE. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |

Because I want the rich to pay their share. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Because I want a second referendum on independence | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
within the lifetime of this Parliament. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |

Because we've all got a part to play in this moment. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
Make this moment yours once more. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
Make your second vote RISE on 5th May. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
Because we still have the power to change Scotland. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
