Scotland United, or Scotland United for Independence,[1] was a political grouping founded by Neale Hanvey that wanted to achieve Scottish independence via co-operation from Scottish pro-independence parties such as the Scottish National Party, the Scottish Greens, and the Scottish Socialist Party in the UK Parliament.[2]

Members

Scotland United had three Members of Parliament: the members of the Alba Party (Neale Hanvey and Kenny MacAskill) and Independent Angus MacNeil. None of the three were re-elected in the 2024 United Kingdom general election.
