Hello, everyone; I hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend. It’s always a tough one after Christmas, being skint and waiting forever for payday to come around, not to mention the cold weather, too!
I have a couple of updates for you, which you will find of interest, and this will probably be my last Clean & Pure post.
So, firstly, there’s a 50% sale off ALL remaining stock, so grab yourself a bargain while you can. Thank you all for your unwavering support over these last couple of years.
Secondly, some of you might recall a hit piece published by one of Scotland’s largest mainstream Newspapers, “The Herald”, about myself and my business last year whilst I was living on the Isle of Skye. What I did not make public then was that because of this, the markets where I traded cancelled all my pitches. There were a couple of reasons I didn’t publicise this straight away; one was because I was considering taking legal action; I felt I should not be punished for having a love of my homeland, my people, culture, and traditions.
The other reason was that I wanted to share a positive conclusion to this matter with you. All too often, we are shown to act fearfully and be scared to speak up because we might be called names, face possible risks to employment, or even worry that family members will not approve or cause upset. I’m not saying this does not happen, but in most cases, you will find people agree with us, and if we do not stand up, the consequences do not bear thinking about, and when required, we must pursue legal action if there are any wrongdoings placed upon us.
I represented myself in court as I could not afford legal services and had the support of a few key members of The Homeland Party who helped me at every stage, for which I am ever so grateful. I have to say despite it being a quite daunting experience I feel I really did my-self and the team proud and would feel more confident now if I had to do it again.
For legal purposes I can confirm: “The action was settled out of court to the satisfaction of all parties.” Make of that what you will!
So, be brave and honour our ancestors by always standing up to defend yourself and our beliefs.
