'Sorted' is a vision for a shared future in an independent Scotland.  A future which puts all of us first. It looks at what's possible and describes how we can make independence and Scotland successful.

More details

'Sorted" imagines we are at the start of the first ten years of Scotland being an independent country. It describes what kind of society we can now build and explains the guiding principles of how to go about building it. Then it takes every part of life in Scotland and puts forward a case for change covering equality; democracy; public finance; tax and money; industry; living standards; resources; learning; care; health; recreation; justice; security; information; and the world.

It explains how to build our industrial base, tackle poverty, combat the climate crisis, raise wages, improve our quality of life and stay safe in an uncertain world - and much more besides.

It is based on a decade of work by Common Weal and organisations and authors close to it.
