NEXT month will see All Under One Banner go to Cardiff to help their friends in Wales organise a march and rally for Welsh independence in the principality’s capital city.
We’ll bring you more details about that event soon, but in the meantime we have news of a collaboration between Scottish and Welsh activists who are planning a weekend of events in and around the “wee county” of Clackmannanshire.

Yes Clackmannanshire wrote to tell us of a weekend of activity later this month involving the Welsh Football Fans for Independence group.
They have already organised a march in Cardiff which took place before the recent Euro 2020 qualifier against Slovakia, when a lot of people joined in as they marched to the stadium.
Yes Hub was told: “This is a joint Scottish and Welsh gathering promoting self determination for both our countries.
“There will be a cultural exchange taking place on Saturday April 27 involving Yes Partick Thistle and a trip to Firhill followed by a social event in Alloa at the Thistle Bar on the Saturday evening.
“On Sunday April 28 we have Clackmannanshire’s biggest bridges activity to date, when both groups and other Yes supporters will hold a Bridges for Indy celebration at a bridge over the south approach road to the Kincardine and Clackmannan bridge.
Yes Clackmannanshire will also have a street stall and interactive engagement game; How’s yer Brexit going? in Alloa town centre this Saturday from 12 noon to 3pm.
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!
