Unite the Clans Scotland Promotes Nazi Ideology in Scotland

By Drooid · · How we work

Event Overview

A rally organized by the far-right Facebook page “Unite the Clans Scotland AAIM” featured speakers from Patriotic Alternative, Homeland and Reform UK councillor Audrey Dempsey. The page, which has over 60,000 followers, has been using its platform to promote an anti-asylum protest in Aberdeen and to circulate posts praising “National Socialism” as a solution to debt, immigration and perceived corporate control. After the rally held in July, a large group of approximately 100 participants moved through the city centre, leading police to record incidents of violence, intimidation and hate-motivated offences.

Group Background and Far-Right Links

Unite the Clans Scotland positions itself as a nationalist movement but repeatedly references Nazi ideology. Representatives from Patriotic Alternative and Homeland, both identified as far-right organisations, have spoken at the group’s events.

Arrests and Legal Actions

Law enforcement has responded with a series of arrests linked to the rally. Five men aged 41, 39, 27, 23 and 22 were charged with assault and possession of offensive weapons, bringing the total number of arrests to 22. The charges reflect a pattern of disorder and hate-motivated offences documented after the July gathering.

Official Response

Stand Up To Racism Scotland condemned the group, stating that it has abandoned any pretense and is openly promoting National Socialism as a model for Scotland’s future.
