Description
A leaflet created for the Yes Campaign, arguing for Scottish separating from the UK in the upcoming referendum on Scottish independence in September 2014.
Front cover features a background photograph of a homeless person with an empty cup, and coins on the ground beside it. Front text reads: "The UK is the 4th most unequal country in the developed world. Still think we're better together?"
Inside leaflet argues thatbecause of being part of the UK, Scotland is unfairly disadvantaged and receives a disproportionate lack of funding, and that an independent Scotland would result in a more democratic Scottish society.
