Campaigners wave Scottish Saltires at a 'Yes' campaign rally in Glasgow, Scotland September 17, 2014.
In the lead up to the independence referendum in Scotland in September 2014, tens of thousands of activists attended 'YES' rallies - and those people have not dissolved into thin air. One year on they are making a statement by setting up a rally in Scotland's largest city to draw attention to their cause.
The independence referendum in Scotland last year had an unprecedented election turnout of 84.6 percent of voters, serving strong proof of how serious the Scots feel about their land and its future, no matter whether they said yes or no.
The fact is that adherents of independence lost with 44.7 percent against 55.3 percent of those who voted in favor of remaining a part of the UK.
Comment: There is considerable evidence of voting irregularities showing that the election was rigged, and that the majority of the Scottish people did and still do want independence:
Scottish referendum result undoubtedly rigged
Today, one year from the #indyref, calls for a new referendum are rising. The leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) Nicola Sturgeon made a statement, saying the "UK is living on borrowed time."
"If you continue to ignore Scotland's voice, if you continue to disrespect the choice the people across this country made in May (general elections in the UK), more and more people will conclude that Westminster simply cannot deliver for Scotland," she said.
Support for independence has been growing with the SNP recording a landslide victory in the general election earlier this year, when the nationalists won 56 seats in parliament.
Supporters on social media have got behind the hashtag "Still Yes," with many predicting a very different outcome if a referendum was held today.
People are generally disenchanted with the promises Westminster made to keep the UK together, as RT's Harry Fear found out on the streets of Glasgow.
A year ago three leaders from Westminster's three major parties urged Scots to vote 'no' in exchange for a "faster, safer and better change."
But a year on the actual architect of this, former Labor leader Gordon Brown, a Scot himself, said Westminster has fallen short of fulfilling this promise.
A new poll finds less than 10 percent think the promise has been delivered completely.
One of the factors for calls for independence has been the rejection of the austerity regime pushed by the Conservatives. Scotland has been left without the administrative power to combat austerity that impairs people's everyday life.
All this pushes Scottish society to radical transformation, which is independence. With the frustration growing over undelivered promises made by London, another independence referendum could well be looming.
Comment: The issue has not been decisively determined because the Scots did not get a fair election; the voting was rigged and the people know it:
