Pressure groups in Scotland
- Pressure groups in Scotland
Due to Scotland having a distinct cultural and political identity, as well as a separate legal system (and again since 1999, a separate legislature), a number of pressure groups have formed that organise in Scotland alone as well as others that are closely linked to pressure groups that operate across the United Kingdom.
