ALL Under One Banner (AUOB) has called on independence supporters from all parties to attend the next march, saying “Scotland will rise again”.
A national demonstration is set to take place on August 3 in Elgin, marching from Doocot Park to Cooper Park.
In a post on social media, a spokesperson for AUOB said: “Four weeks tomorrow, the broad Yes movement has the critical opportunity to heal and move forwards from this election, galvanising for independence – for Scotland's cause is not one and the same as any pro-indy political party. Our movement will fight until the fight is won.

“Scotland shall be an independent country. And nothing and no-one will stand in our way. Make sure to attend the national demonstration for self-determination.”
It comes as the SNP suffered a huge defeat in the General Election, losing 38 seats so far – with one seat still to be declared.
Meanwhile, the Alba Party have lost their deposit in every seat they contested, with both the party’s previous MPs losing their seats.
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!
