There has been considerable speculation in the press over the last few weeks that the SNP might change its policy on NATO. Currently the party would support an independent Scotland being a member of Partnership for Peace, but not a full member of NATO. There is a good article by Pat Kane in the Scotsman which responds to this. Please contact any MSPs or MPs in the SNP who represent you and encourage the SNP to to maintain their opposition to full NATO membership.
