Restore Scotland is a political party in Scotland, founded on 14 August 2020. The party stands for full independence for Scotland from the United Kingdom and the European Union, individual liberty, the sanctity of life, and the health and wellbeing of the people of Scotland.
The party was launched fifty days before the 2021 Scottish Parliament election where it was announced that the party is planning to contest both constituency and regional seats. According to the National, interim Party Leader David McHutchon has been critical of the "SNP's pro-Brussels stance and the Scottish Government’s new hate crime legislation",[1] while Deputy Leader Don Morrison had been a member of the SNP for 54 years, but said that he had become "increasingly exasperated by the party’s insistence on re-joining the European Union", according to The Scotsman.[2] Kevin McKenna highlighted the benefits for the Yes Movement of the party's formation.[3]
In the 2021 elections, Restore Scotland are contesting four constituency seats - Banffshire and Buchan Coast, Dundee City West, Inverness and Nairn, and Shetland - and two regions - North East Scotland[4] and Highlands and Islands.[5]
