YES for EU will be hosting an online event next Tuesday, November 10, in which Gordon McIntyre-Kemp will be explaining how Scotland can thrive economically as a small country.
MacIntyre-Kemp is best known as the founder and chief executive of Business for Scotland.
He recently set up BelieveinScotland.org, the grassroots-led campaign for independence, and hosted a successful online campaign planning conference, which was attended by 197 leaders and committee members of 130 local Yes groups – the biggest online gathering of Yes groups held since the coronavirus pandemic hit us.
Believe in Scotland also has a Facebook group that has attracted 10,600 members in less than 12 weeks – it’s at www.facebook.com/groups/believeinscotland.org

Yes for EU stated: “Gordon will present the case for ‘pivoting our economic model to supporting wellbeing and winning independence’.
“His message is that both capitalism and socialism are last century’s economic ideas and it’s time to move on to new and better thinking. There will be plenty of time for questions.”
This online event will start at 6.30pm and will be live-streamed via Zoom.
It’s a free event but anyone wishing to participate must register with Eventbrite – search for the event and you will see the registration button.
Yes for EU added: “Register now and we will send you the Zoom link two days before the event.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
