Goal Met!
To be a nation, Scotland needs a national day, celebrated by a national holiday. Some have called for making St. Andrew's Day such a day. However, St. Andrew was not a Scot and never even visited Scotland. Also, many modern Scots are agnostics and atheists, so a national day dedicated to a Christian Saint would have limited appeal for them. What we need is a day that means something to all Scots, both in Scotland and around the World.

That day can only be June the 24th, the victorious culmination of the Battle of Bannockburn, when Scots, from lords to lowly camp followers, all contributed, with their sacred blood, to the astounding victory that made Scotland a nation.

We therefore call upon both the Scottish Parliament and the Parliament of the United Kingdoms to declare for all time the 24th of June Scotland's National Holiday, so that a true sense of the Scottish nation may never perish from the face of the Earth.
