In the Scottish constitutional tradition, the people are sovereign.
This means that the ultimate source of political power should be people in Scotland themselves, and that those who exercise power should do so on their behalf and with their consent.[3]
The Claim of Right 1989, which underpinned the movement that led to the setting up of the Scottish Parliament, contains a modern recognition of the sovereignty of the people of Scotland. It has been endorsed by votes of both the Scottish Parliament and the Westminster Parliament.[4] It begins by acknowledging "the sovereign right of the Scottish people to determine the form of government best suited to their needs"; a view supported by the majority of people in Scotland.[5]
